Stealing Dan is an ultra-authentic homage to the greatest pop-jazz band in modern music, Steely Dan, delivering a true-to-form replication of the original songs and recorded excellence of Steely Dan. Expect to hear all the hits, including Reeling In The Years, Peg, Josie, FM, Hey Nineteen, My Old School, Pretzel Logic, and some deep track favourites as well. Jim Papp leads this extraordinary 9-piece ensemble with an uncanny vocal resemblance to Steely Dan’s Donald Fagan. And it wouldn’t sound like Steely Dan without those classic studio guitar solos, delivered with clarity and perfection by Jeff Gillespie. Signature keyboards from John Mang, superb saxophones from Claudio Fantinato and Rachel Cooper. Driving the heartbeat of the band is Jeff Drummond on bass and Art Van Volsen on the drums. Stellar background vocals from Charity Monro and Colleen Brooks complete the picture.
We respectfully acknowledge that the Filberg Festival takes place on the unceded traditional territory of the K'omoks First Nation, Gila 'kasla...Hay ch q'a'.
