FREE Tuesday Jam Hosted by Elisabeth Wagner

Elisabeth Wagner is a pianist and music educator originally from Detroit—the city that basically invented music.

  •  October 14, 2025
     8:00 pm - 10:30 pm

Now based in Edmonton, you might recognize her from her epic emceeing as a House Manager at The Yardbird Suite—her favourite place to be and a cornerstone of Edmonton’s jazz scene.

Elisabeth is an active performer and music director, working across jazz and theatre settings. She is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Music degree at MacEwan University, where she is busy crafting a distinctive sound influenced by the groove of Robert Glasper, the virtuosity of Nina Simone, and the introspection of Bill Evans.
