Folk Music [Nate Wooley, Chris Corsano and Ches Smith]
Doors 7 pm, $10-20 suggested
Folk Music is Nate Wooley (trumpet, amplifier), Chris Corsano (drums, clarinet, feedback), and Ches Smith (drums, sampler, electronics, percussion).
After years of conceptual and compositional projects, Wooley put together a trio dedicated simply to free music without boundaries. Why “Folk Music?” The name stems from the idea of making something from scratch using the full life experience and creativity of the musicians, a story that changes with each re-telling, that progresses each time the musicians come together to tell it again. It is music as legend or myth. Folk songs, strange but true.
