Of all of Canada's jazz festivals, the TD Montreal Jazz Festival probably has the most liberal interpretation of the word "jazz." This year's festival includes everyone from indie pop singer, guitar wizard and possible alien St. Vincent to Dweezil Zappa, who has our second-favourite Zappa-child name after Moon Unit. (Nobody tops Moon Unit.)
That said, some of these acts may be jazzier than you thought. We've taken 10 of the most seemingly out-of-place acts and ranked them on a jazzitude scale of one to 10, with 10 being Ornette Coleman and one being Cannibal Corpse. See how they stack up.
