Soul Jazz Express live in Toronto

Experience Soul Jazz Express live on June 28th

Soul Jazz Express will be performing at Rooms Coffee, located at 915 Dupont Street in Toronto, on June 28, 2026. The group performs a blend of soul, jazz, and funk music, often characterized by instrumental arrangements featuring prominent horn sections, driving basslines, and a focus on improvisation rooted in classic jazz traditions but with contemporary influences. Their sound draws inspiration from artists like Cannonball Adderley and Herbie Hancock while incorporating modern sensibilities.

Rooms Coffee is a long-standing independent coffee shop and live music venue in the Annex neighbourhood of Toronto. Established in 1993, it has become known for its intimate atmosphere and consistent presentation of live jazz and blues performances. The space is relatively small, fostering a close connection between performers and audience members. Over the years, Rooms Coffee has served as a platform for both established local musicians and emerging talent within the Toronto music scene. It maintains a reputation for supporting live music within the city and providing a listening room environment rather than a typical bar setting. The venue’s decor is described as cozy and unpretentious.
