Toronto, Ontario - The Cafe Ole band has just released their debut CD
on September 26th with an accompanying CD release party at Hugh's
Room. The Cafe Ole ( http://www.thecafeole.ca ) is a flamenco-style
jazz band that recently received a recording grant from the Ontario
Arts Council. The band's brand new CD has just been nominated in the
2007 Toronto Independent Music Awards, the Toronto Exclusive Magazine

This new and upcoming band boasts a soulful lead singer (Celia Palli),
