Fusion Nomads at The Shea Theater. (3/24, 2021)
For musicians, poets, dancers, and daredevil performers of all sorts... this has been a strange and difficult time. We've been separated from the audiences we perform for and speak to, and with whom we imagine a future... together. I called this group together in one of our favorite community theaters, The Shea Theater in Turner's Falls, Massachusetts because... because we're all friends, because we've been feeling and carrying some of the weight of this last year, because every one of us has spent our lives in music and because we all felt there was something urgent to communicate.
This group of players combines tradition and innovation with our worlds of instruments and experiences. We welcomed the chance to boldly dive into these collective compositions and improvisations as a way of acknowledging our connections and our humanity in the spinning of these webwork moments of sound.
Tony Vacca. Derrik Jordan. Avery Sharpe. Charles Langford.
We hope you dig it.
