Andrew Littleford

I am extremely grateful and excited to be involved in the 2014 TD Winnipeg International Jazz Festival this summer with some amazing musicians and groups, playing some great music!

I will be playing with 5 groups during the festival, and will be contributing compositions to 3 of them. Those groups include, the Littleford/Carter Quintet, the Winnipeg Jazz Collective and the Dirty Catfish Brass Band. I will also be playing with the Luke Sellick Expedition and the Ron Paley Big Band.

Tickets are now on sale and you can find more about any of these shows by clicking on the shows link or go to the EVENTS page.

I am honored and privileged to be featured in the March/April issue of Dig Magazine, Winnipeg's Bi-monthly jazz magazine! I was interviewed for the Home Cookin' article which interviews a local Winnipeg jazz musician every issue.

I would like to thank Charlene Diehl for writing the article and everyone at Dig magazine for giving me the opportunity to be featured in this great local jazz magazine.

Since moving to Winnipeg from Vancouver, the city has opened it's arms and offered me many great opportunities to grow as an artist and musician and I am very thankful to all that have supported and continue to support me along my musical path!

You can find this issue on stands around Winnipeg until May 1, and it will also soon be available to view as an electronic copy online at:

The Dirty Catfish Brass Band are gearing up to record our first album which we plan on having available in the late spring/early summer! Keep an eye on my Event Page or the DCBB web page for all of our upcoming events and you might just get to hear us try out a new original tune or 2 written specifically for the album before it gets recorded!
