Improv Hootenanny:
- World Premiere (Joshua Raoul Brody, Gerri Lawlor, Allen Whitman, David Norfleet)
- GEO Collective
- Jeff Hobbs & Co.
- All Ones (Matt Cunitz, Ned Dohertz, Dave Brandt)
The idea behind the monthly Experimental/Improv Hootenanny & Social Club is to foster collaboration and community amongst players and fans of improvisational outside music in a cozy place where people can chill, chat, get a decent cocktail - all with no cover.
Each month consists of one featured act and three curated sets with five minute overlaps creating a seamless night of improvised outside music and spontaneous collaboration.
Rules of the road:
All music is improvised.
The feature act can be an existing group or collaboration.
Curated sets are new collaborations or untried solo experiments. Curators either arrange collaborators beforehand or engage musicians in the room to play with.
After the main sets are over, the stage is open to collaborations until 1am.
Third monday of the month.
