LUKE VASJAR
5.30

Toronto bassist Luke Vajsar (pronounced "v-eye-sar") began playing guitar at the age of 10 and kept playing till he finally got his hands on a bass at the age of 14 to help fill in a spot for a band. Liking the tone of the instrument he transferred his guitar skills to bass playing and became involved with many bands and musicians from his neighbourhood. Throughout this time, he became inspired to perform solo as well.  Solo bass performances combined with a dose of vocal tracks and some special guests led to the recording of fourteen albums in either solo, duo or trio formats.  The large amounts of recordings and writing sessions is credited to developing Luke’s tone and unique atmospheric sound.   When asked what genre best describes his music,  the answer most of the often is “Psychedelic, Funk, Lounge" though is subject to change, as being tied down to a particular genre and reducing musical freedom is never an option.  He performs live mostly around the Toronto and ventures out to Montreal yearly to perform.  Luke has also toured and performed in Czech Republic, Croatia, Austria, Poland, Germany, Slovenia, Hungary and Tokyo Japan.  Luke will often play anywhere as a challenge to explore the effect of his sound in different surroundings and versatile crowds.  He frequently performs with his brother Andrew and or Avi Iyer on percussion.  Rogers TV show “Toronto Sessions” has called this duo “One of the funkiest bands Toronto has to offer”.  He now resides in Toronto’s Bloordale neighbourhood where he has secured a group of musician contacts and fans that push each other to constantly perform and develop their art to the highest degree.
