Jazz In The City host Jaymz Bee is signing off from Toronto's Jazz.FM 91

Musician/filmmaker and radio personality Jaymz Bee will host his final Jazz In The City show for Jazz.FM 91 on Thursday at 9 pm.

From Dana Wigle, General Manager, Jazz.FM 91: 

"For over twenty years, Jaymz Bee has been an integral member of our JAZZ.FM91 community. Jaymz’s commitment to supporting artists combined with his energy and passion for entertaining fostered the growth of many of JAZZ.FM91’s programs over the years from the curation of some of our first Jazz Lives concerts, local and international Jazz Safaris and the development and nurturing of the beloved program, Jazz In The City.

"Ever innovative and up for new challenges, Jaymz recently focused his creative talents on a new venture, filmmaking, and in true Bee style he’s received recognition at festivals from around the world such as Cannes, London, Hollywood and Tokyo, just to name a few.

"Jaymz has decided to focus full time on his burgeoning filmmaking career and is bidding farewell to JAZZ.FM91. Though his departure signifies the winding down of Jazz in the City, this is certainly not goodbye. Jaymz is family and we can’t wait to see what he does next.

"We will celebrate Jaymz with a very special Jazz In The City finale on July 25th at 9pm. He will be on with Ralph Benmergui on Saturday July 27th 1pm-4pm and will host Session Notes on Sunday July 28th at 9am. Go to www.jazz.fm or 91.1 FM to listen live!

"Jaymz Bee will continue his work with local artists and we’ll see him at festivals throughout the GTA. He is currently working on a TV pilot and his new feature film, Magicland is currently in production. Jaymz Bee will host and produce a concert at Koerner Hall on October 16th to help raise money for the station. Details to follow in a week."
