Turner Music and Events works closely throughout the year with Vancouver's finest and most intimate live music venue, the Cellar Restaurant and Jazz Club, and with Vancouver's Cellar Live record Label. The Cellar Live Label was founded in 2001 by musician/producer/jazz club owner Cory Weeds. When Weeds purchased The Cellar Restaurant and Jazz Club. in August, 2000 he immediately started assembling some recording gear to preserve the incredible music that was being performed on stage every night.
Their catalogue now boasts over 45 records. 2007 was a banner year for the label. Cellar Live won "Label of the Year" for the national Jazz Awards. Jodi Proznick's "Foundations" won "Album of the Year" and "Acoustic Group of the Year". "Foundations" was also nominated for a JUNO award.
All of Cellar Live's releases have received fabulous reviews and the label has established itself as one of the country's finest producers of jazz music.
