Kallisto is a Montréal-based band led by clarinetist and composer Dr. Jossée MacInnis. Blending klezmer with Anatolian folk music, Middle Eastern sounds, jazz, and 70s psychedelic rock, Kallisto is a playground for sonic experimentation—where traditions intersect, genres merge, and spontaneity thrives. Since its creation in 2020, the ensemble has evolved into a five-piece rock-inspired formation featuring clarinet (Jossée MacInnis), cello (Jefferson Perez), electric guitar (Antoine Bensoussan), electric bass (Patrick Lebrun), and drums (Edward Scrimger). Known for their energetic and immersive performances, Kallisto has played at several iconic Montréal venues, including Sala Rossa, Quai des Brumes, and Casa del Popolo. The group has also released two EPs, Arcas (2023) and Tigris (2024). Kallisto continues to push the boundaries of klezmer while celebrating its roots through a fresh and high-energy approach.
