TORONTO — Groundbreaking transgender soul singer Jackie Shane is the focus of a new Heritage Minute.
Shane, who was born in Nashville but thrived in the Canadian R&B music scene, was selected for her contributions to"the Toronto sound," a version of electric soul shaped in the early 1960s. Shane played clubs in Montreal and Boston, but her home was at Toronto's Saphire Tavern until she suddenly quit music in 1971.
