Halton JAZZ Singers


Halton JAZZ Singers include Darcea Hiltz, Siona Neale, Jason Miller & Rocco Continenza.

We have been likened to the New York Voices and the Manhattan Transfer because of our audience appeal, our energy, and ability to navigate close harmonies. HJS is accompanied by a live rhythm combo or a 9 or 16 piece swing band.

HJS offers the highest audience appeal – we get our audiences excited and engaged! Visit www.haltonjazzsingers.com to hear why!

Since our beginning in 2013, HJS has performed at numerous high-profile venues and events throughout the GTA with our wide repertoire of newly arranged standards by Canadian Arrangers Gary Martin, Heiki Tamm, Dylan Bell and Suba Sankaran.

HJS has produced several shows including:
• Canadian Hits through the Decades
● A Jazzy Christmas
● Harlem Hits & Southern Swing

Our audiences comment that Halton JAZZ Singers has broad appeal with our magical musical chemistry that energises, engages and entertains!
