SUMMARY:Nachyn Choreve + Arrington de Dionyso
DESCRIPTION:After the sold out Sounds of Siberia concert\, Tuvan throat singer\, Nachyn Choreve returns to Bellingham! He will be performing a solo set\, followed by a duo performance with artist Arrington de Dionyso (Old Time Relijun)\, performing spontaneous compositions\, blending each of their influences together. \n$15 supports the artists and the AltLib\nDoors at 7:00pm; Music at 7:30pm\nTickets are limited and are available in advance via WithFriends: https://withfriends.co/event/3920760/nachyn_choreve_w_arrington_de_dionyso \nNachyn Choreve is a soloist in the Tuvan State Philharmonic and member of Tuvan psychedelic rock band Hartyga. Hartyga was founded in 2003 and represents the younger generation of Tuvan throat singers. They follow in the footsteps of the legendary Tuvan ethnic rock group Yat-Kha\, and in 2017 toured and recorded with Yat-Kha’s iconic frontman\, Albert Kuvezin. In September 2019\, Nachyn and Hartyga toured the US for the first time with Olympia-based artist Arrington de Dionyso. \nArrington de Dionyso (b. 1975) has lived in Olympia since 1992. A self-taught artist\, musician and linguist\, he is the founder of seminal NW post-punk bands Old Time Relijun\, Malaikat dan Singa\, and the avant-jazz ensembles This Saxophone Kills Fascists and Trance Music For Crows. He has performed and exhibited around the world and in 2015 his drawings were prominently featured as prints and embroidery in a fashion collection debuted by Saint Laurent Paris. As a kind of “punk ethnomusicologist” Arrington circumvents academic approaches in favor of building direct cooperative relationships with diverse musical cultures\, as an invited participant and active collaborator. His investigations of Jathilan trance music in Java\, and collaborations with groups such as Senyawa\, Karinding Attack\, and HMM have brought him to the forefront of the Indonesian experimental music scene\, and he has recently traveled to Morocco (Master Musicians of Jajouka) and Peru (instrument builder Dmitri Manga) to build similar connections linking the indigenous with the avant garde. In August of 2019 he traveled to The Republic of Tuva as the headlining “international” artist of the “Throatsinging in the Center of Asia Festival”\, performing at the National Theater of Kyzyl and collaborating with numerous local musicians and shamanic practitioners.

SUMMARY:V.Vecker / Ruth Davidson & Jonathan Sherman Duo / Orgone Donor
DESCRIPTION:$8-12 supports the artists and the AltLib\nDoors at 7:30pm; Music at 8:00pm\nMarch 14th @ Alt Lib \nV.Vecker (aka Keith Wecker\, b. 1983) is a composer and multi-instrumentalist based in Vancouver\, BC\, Canada. He has been a member of the Vancouver experimental scene since 2006 and has been touring North America since 2009. He releases his music through his imprint Vancouver Free Jass + Drone Society and was a founding member of the Emergency Room. V.Veckers’ work is inspired by the commonalities he found in free + spiritual jazz\, electronic\, noise and drone music. His music can resemble a melting pot of any of these genres at a given time. His current work is based around saxophone loops and synthesizers working with a heavy interest in producing atmospheric experiences. Leading with free and improvisational ideas counter balanced with an interest in more formal compositional methods and electronic musics lead to a cross section of genres resulting in music familiar yet original.\nV.Vecker has participated in New Forms Festival\, the Vancouver International Jazz Festival\, the Living Things Festival\, and the Improvisation Summit Portland. He has shared the stage with Wolf Eyes\, Sarah Davachi\, Chris Corsano\, Hauschka\, Jessica Moss\, Nadja\, Sun Araw\, Thundercat\, Zs\, Anthony Braxton\, and Glenn Branca.\n\nhttps://vveckermusic.bandcamp.com/ \nRuth Davidson (Moraine) and Jonathan Sherman (Falling Up Stairs) will be performing a duet of spontaneous compositions for cello and drums. \nOrgone Donor is Dustin Williams (Tarsier Eyes) Riley R (The Sheen)\, and Alex Wolf (Twin Sibling\, Guillotine Eyes) who will be performing improvised electronic music with guitar pedals\, synthesizers and tape machines. \n~~~\nAltLib is always ALL AGES!\nNOTAFLOF
