Joachim Cooder with West of Roan
February 29 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
$22 – $25Joachim Cooder
Joachim grew up surrounded by music alongside his father, legendary guitarist Ry Cooder who took him on the road at an early age on the drums, playing both live and in the studio. These touring and recording projects allowed him to share stages and recordings with Johnny Cash, Ali Farka Touré, V. M. Bhatt, Steve Earle, John Lee Hooker, Dr. John, Nick Lowe, and most notably the award winning project The Buena Vista Social Club.
Joachim discovered the joys of playing an electric mbira through a small amp, and the sound that emanated was inspired by the world music that always captivated him, Im always hearing some sort of defunct cosmic ice cream truck in my head thats the sound Im after with my mbiras and tank drums and other tuned percussion.”
West of Roan
A NW duo from Bellingham and Waldron Island, West of Roan is a multi-media performance team of song & puppetry. “We sing (and do the same with fiddle) in close two part harmonies, exploring how singing uplifts and unites this collaboration and friendship, as well as discovering what sounds & chordal structures bring us closer to the complex emotions in the stories we tell. We play heavily with voice crossing, dissonance an modal harmonies.”
