Day 3: July 2nd, 2022
with TOPS, Joey Bada$$, Night Lunch

The Montreal Jazz Festival is back for another day, after some sweet Canada Day festivities with Corinne Bailey Rae! While Kamasi Washington was rocking the main free stage, we focused on indoor venues for two very different, yet very exciting shows!

We started the evening at Club Soda with 4-piece creep pop Montreal group Night Lunch. Led by enigmatic singer Lukie Lovechild, the band performed a solid set under moody lighting, in front of a growing crowd!

Next, we headed to MTelus for a change of genre. Because of some delays to start his set, we weren’t able to check out opener Capella Grey, but we made it on time for the headliner of the night, Brooklyn rapper Joey Bada$$. The artist brought his 1999 / 2000 Tour, named after his first mixtape and his upcoming album, in front of a sold-out venue ready to rage. And rage they did, as they screamed, jumped up and down and broke into moshpits from the moment the rapper came onstage, until the moment he left it after 90 minutes packed with bangers.

Finally, we went back to Club Soda to close our night with TOPS. The Montreal indie-rock band charmed the audience with a very fun set, with singer Jane Penny front and center, who showcased not only her voice but also her flute skills!
