Prepare for an extraordinary night of musical innovation as two groundbreaking acts co-headline an unforgettable concert. Cowhause and Hamster Theatre, each pioneers in their own right, will take turns commanding the stage to deliver an evening of genre-defying soundscapes and captivating performances. This double bill showcases the cutting edge of contemporary composition, offering audiences two distinct yet complementary musical journeys.

Cowhause, the dynamic duo of Janet Feder and Colin Bricker, blends acoustic artistry with electronic innovation. Feder's masterful baritone guitar work, characterized by her unique prepared techniques, weaves intricate melodies that dance between tradition and experimentation. Bricker's cutting-edge electronic compositions provide the perfect counterpoint, crafting rich, textured soundscapes that push the boundaries of contemporary music.

Hamster Theatre brings a different flavor to the mix, drawing inspiration from an eclectic array of sources. Their music is a vibrant tapestry of folk, avant-garde, and world music influences, peppered with nods to early 20th-century French composers. This ensemble's diverse instrumentation - including accordion, brass, woodwinds, and more - creates a sonic palette that is both familiar and refreshingly unique.

Both groups share a commitment to musical exploration, blending seemingly disparate elements into cohesive, emotionally resonant performances. cowhause's intimate, guitar-driven composition and Hamster Theatre's expansive, orchestral approach offer complementary perspectives on the cutting edge of contemporary composition.

Prepare for an evening that defies easy categorization. From cowhause's "beautiful, twisted, broken soundscapes" to Hamster Theatre's "magical, unpredictable blend," this concert promises to take listeners on a journey through uncharted musical territories. Don't miss this rare opportunity to experience two of the most innovative acts in modern music sharing one stage.
