Improvising Musicians of Ottawa/Outaouais

For Ottawans looking to escape the structured sounds of mainstream music, the Improvising Musicians of Ottawa/Outaouais (IMOO) Festival runs from Fri, Oct 5-Sat, Oct 6 at Club Saw.

IMOOFEST 2012 will feature ab-libbed performances by eight musicans including Lori Freedman and festival co-founder Craig Pedersen. 

Renée Noxon, communications director for the fest, says IMOO is inclusive and strives to include people from all backgrounds.

"Since our music is on the fringe, we tend to attract a very diverse crowd," Noxon says. "Our organizing members and invited performers are all strong allies and we are an LGBTQ-friendly organization."

IMOO are usually held bi-weekly on the first and third Sundays of the month at Umi Café.

Tickets range from $15 for a one day pass to $100 which gets the buyer a compilation CD and t-shirt. Organizers are also accepting $250 and $500 donations which come with many more perks.
