Tunnel Six is a sextet comprised of some of the most notable up and coming jazz musicians from various cities in Canada and the U.S. The group was formed when its members were attending the International Workshop in Jazz and Creative Music at the Banff Centre in Alberta in May 2009. Though the band was formed by chance meeting, the unique musical chemistry between the band members was immediately evident from the first notes they played. Recognizing this unique and effortless chemistry, the band unanimously agreed that the group should pursue as many future performance and recording opportunities as possible. Within the span of the three-week workshop, the band members felt as though they had already been playing together for years. The efforts of Tunnel Six during the workshop culminated in several performances and an extensive recording session in the facilities at the Banff Centre.

Since its inception, Tunnel Six has composed a substantial amount of new music and performed it across Canada and the U.S. The group has completed three cross-continental tours across Canada and the U.S. including many urban centers and rural communities. Their debut album "Lake Superior" was released in the spring of 2011 on Seattle-based Origin Records and distributed within Canada, the U.S. and Europe. A new live album recorded in Canada and the U.S. will be released in the spring of 2013.

Tunnel Six connects to a broad spectrum of audiences through the strong and intuitive storytelling elements of their compositions and improvisations. Accessibility, a broad palate of expression, and an organic narrative quality are some of the driving characteristics of the group's approach to composition and performance.
