A number of Alberta’s finest musicians and members of the music community are coming together at the Heritage Amphitheatre in Hawrelak Park, in Edmonton’s beautiful river valley, on Wednesday July 22, 2026 to voice their collective appreciation for their country. Voicing commitment to Canada through a day of exceptional music was the idea of P.J. Perry, one of Canada’s greatest jazz musicians who was born in Calgary and who has made his home in Edmonton for a number of decades.

With a number of his friends and peers, Perry is co-producing Musicians for Canada, A Benefit Concert for Canadian Unity with event producer and broadcaster Cam Hayden, Vici Wynn a member of the Leadership Team at Hope United Church and music journalist, promoter Peter North.
