SUMMARY:Robin Holcomb - Early Show
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of the Robin Holcomb Residency at 8EAST\, a co-presentation with Coastal Jazz and Blues and the NOW Society. Find out more about the residency here. \n“Hers is an unsettling\, utterly original vision.” – Entertainment Weekly  \nWith a voice that echoes traditional English folk song\, Appalachian roots\, and the more theatrical chapters of the American Songbook\, along with an arresting piano style that traverses chamber music\, avant-jazz\, and nuanced pop\, Robin Holcomb’s songs “mirror a beguiling\, bewildering world” (Rolling Stone). A long-time collaborator of fellow unclassifiables Wayne Horvitz and Peggy Lee\, Holcomb was an active part of the NYC downtown scene before relocating to Seattle\, and has worked with the likes of John Zorn\, Arto Lindsay\, Sonic Youth’s Lee Renaldo\, Butch Morris\, and many more. Emotive\, expansive\, and lyrical\, her two-volume set of recordings for solo piano and voice\, One Way or Another\, was released in late-2022 by Westerlies Records. Called “staggeringly beautiful” by The New York Times\, the great Bill Frisell’s praise of the singular collection of songs is even more urgent: “Listen closely. We need this.” \nThe 8EAST social space for new culture is a project of the NOW Society and is located in Vancouver\, in Chinatown and the DTES. All events at 8EAST are by donation. The suggested donation for this event is $25 and no one will be turned away for lack of funds. \nAddress: 8 East Pender Street\, Vancouver BC\, Canada\, V6A 1T1.

SUMMARY:Liturgy with BIG|BRAVE + Farida Amadou (solo)
DESCRIPTION:Liturgy \nSonically and conceptually dense\, Liturgy’s ferocious and transcendental black metal exists in a liminal space between experimental music and sacred ritual; a place where the power and dynamism of symphonic forms\, urgent sheets of distorted guitar\, pummeling burst beats\, and passionate\, throat-strafing vocals manifest the ecstatic with breathtaking grandeur. \nFounded in Brooklyn by vocalist/guitarist Ravenna Hunt-Hendrix\, the group’s meticulous rhythmic complexity and unyielding\, trance-inducing use of repetition is pushed to maximalist proportions on the new album 93696. With guitarist Mario Miron\, bassist Tia Vincent-Clark\, and drummer Leo Didkovsky\, Hunt-Hendrix reflects the awe of the unknowable and celebrates what revelations and mysteries lie ahead. \n \nBIG|BRAVE \nHarnessing an earthen heaviness of distorted textural drones\, austere bombast\, and guitarist Robin Wattie’s heart-rending voice\, BIG|BRAVE is at the forefront of reconfiguring the landscape of heavy music. With guitarist Mathieu Ball and drummer Tasy Hudson\, the elemental Montréal ensemble brandishes density and sparseness like weapons in their emotional elegies for the disenfranchised. \n\nFarida Amadou (solo) \nBelgian bassist Farida Amadou uses electronics and extended technique to conjure abstracted sounds that move from miniscule to overwhelming. \nVenue 19+ (No Minors)

SUMMARY:Sun Ra Arkestra
DESCRIPTION:An enormous influence on generations of avant-jazz players—as well as artists ranging from Sonic Youth to Solange—the visionary Afrofuturism pioneer Sun Ra released over a hundred albums between the mid-1950s and his departure for Saturn in 1993. But the Sun Ra Arkestra continues to beam Ra’s cosmic messages around our humble planet\, sometimes collecting mementos like a 2022 GRAMMY nomination for their album Swirling\, which was called “challenging but intoxicating” by The Guardian\, and “a total joy” by The Wire. \nKnown for melding Ellingtonian big band swing\, transcendent free jazz\, dancing\, chanting\, and lavishly-outfitted Afro-pageantry\, the 13-piece Arkestra will touch down to make sure Ra’s “Afrofuturist ideas and concepts are still hurtling through space at light speed” (Rolling Stone). \n— \nThe Sun Ra Arkestra features Noel Scott alto and tenor saxes\, Vincent Chancey French horn\, Elson Nascimento percussion/surdo\, Tyler Mitchell bass\, Wayne Smith drums\, Cecil Brooks trumpet\, James Stewart tenor sax\, Tara Middleton vocals\, D. Hotep guitar\, Dave Davies trombone\, Farid Barron piano\, Beavin Lawrence baritone sax\, Kevin Batchelor trumpet.
