Battlefords Jazz Society is kicking off a new season Nov. 6 with a cabaret featuring Kamila Martel and the Ne'erDoWells.

The group is described as a Saskatchewan original. It is a pop, gypsy, blues and roots rock band with an innovative sound.

Led by singer/songwriter Kamila Martel, the Ne'erDoWells are a fusion and synthesis of some of Saskatoon's finest, multi-talented and best known musicians. Eliza Doyle, Paul Kuzbik, Finn Day- Wiggins, Steven Maier and Roger Mercier have created a new genre, bending and blending new soundscapes to showcase Kamila's smoldering, power house vocals, well developed songwriting skills and unmatched performance style.

The Ne'erDoWells brew an eclectic mix where dirty electric blues guitars meet sweet banjo sprinkles, while the bass slaps to dance grooves, the keyboard karate and ripping solo's create waves and layers like an ocean full of songs haunted by sweet siren vocals, harmonies, searing slide, samples and sounds from by-gone eras. Melodic, enticing, enchanting, powerful and soulful, with enough groove to get you on your feet.
