    Michelle Willis & Chris Parker • Miles Hewitt, Jake Klar & Karlo Rueby Dec 5

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

     

    Michelle Willis returns to Brooklyn to play duo with Chris Parker, featuring songs by both. 

    For one night only, Jake Klar, Miles Hewitt, and Karlo Rueby will weave a special braid of their musics: three interwoven sets from three original and powerful songwriters. 

    Jake Klar is an artist based in Heath, MA. His songs showcase an ongoing collection of life’s lyric moments, both the eccentric and the daily. Klar rides on the Americana tradition of storytelling in his work, while bringing in the edge of modern folk/rock-inspired arrangements. Whether Jake is playing solo or with his band – you will leave his shows with his crooning voice and the poetry of his lyrics ringing through your head.

    Miles Hewitt is a songwriter and poet residing in Brooklyn. His debut record,  Heartfall, was named one of the 50 Best Albums of 2022 by The Boston Globe, who wrote:  “Simply brilliant . . . by turns intimate and epic, lush with strings and delicate fingerpicked guitar, languid psychedelia and dreamy pedal-steel painted soundscapes.” 2025 will see the release of its follow-up, Vainglory. 

    Karlo Rueby’s Bye For Now is a 22-minute break-up album in 3 acts, recorded and mixed at home. Karlo also plays current and former bandmate in Western MA bands like Sun Parade, Hannah Mohan (And The Kids, Topsy), Prewn, Carinae, and is the co-founder of Cousin Moon.

    Emily Hope Price • Akie Bermiss Dec 6

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

    Emily Hope Price is a New York-based cellist, singer, songwriter, film composer, arranger, and performing artist. Before they disbanded in 2015, she was cellist and one of three singer-songwriters in the Brooklyn-based indie band Pearl and the Beard. Since returning to a solo career, she regularly performs on Broadway, composes for dance, film and television, and performs, records, and collaborates with artists around the world. Her solo work resonates withcinematic intensity and imagery – using voice, effects, and layered instrumental composition.

    Akie Bermiss is affable, near-sighted, hirsute, and a nerd of the highest water. Nevertheless, he has also somehow managed to cultivate and live a double-life as cool and *very* hip musician. His favorite thing to do is write (and, subsequently, sing) songs about aliens and spaceships and falling in love.

    Talie Schlanger • Lily Talmers Dec 8

    7:30 Door 8:00 Music $15 suggested donation

     

    Talia Schlanger is a songwriter, musician and broadcaster whose intimate and explosive debut album “Grace for the Going” was named one of Exclaim!’s Most Anticipated Canadian Albums of 2024. With a warm, inviting sound that sits somewhere between folk, jazz and rock, NPR Music writes “Schlanger is an empathetic ear for someone’s wounded heart; her voice sure in its love, gently cradling ours.” She sings about compassion, hope, survival, mental health, love gone bad and sometimes extinct species of frogs. As former host of the NPR-distributed radio show World Cafe and frequent guest host on CBC’s Q with Tom Power, Schlanger has also interviewed hundreds of artists. She began her professional performance career at age 14 and her various theatre credits including performing in the original Canadian cast of Queen’s We Will Rock You and the first US tour of Green Day’s American Idiot. Her new live EP, coming out Oct 25 via Latent Recordings, is produced by Cowboy Junkies’ Mike Timmins.

    Lily Talmers is a Michigan-born, Brooklyn based songwriter. Her music hopes to elicit deep sorrow and joy, both, and wonders about their connection.

     

    Brooklyn-based trio Alaara (pronounced ahlah-ahrah) includes Grey McMurray on guitar, Sonya Belaya on piano, and Nicole Patrick on drums. The trio creates long form improvisations that prioritize patience, effortlessly traversing the spaces of jazz, experimental minimalism, and ambient music. In the lineage of loving friendship, the trio’s strength lies in the deepest listening, the vastness of their individual multiplicities, and an understanding that the present moment is the most precious one.

    Sammy Weisberg • Matt Bachmann • Iceblink Dec 12

    7:30 Doors 8:00 music $15 suggested donation

      

    Sammy Weissberg is a composer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist based out of Brooklyn, New York. He’s scored numerous films including “What Doesn’t Float” (Prod. Pauline Chalamet) and has four releases of chamber music under his own name.  Sammy has also contributed string and wind arrangements for artists such as Caroline Rose, June McDoom, Kristine Leschper, Allegra Krieger, The Cradle, Girlpool, and more.

    Matt Bachmann (b. 1988, Chicago) is a musician/social worker whose sound is a marriage of long form repetitive instrumental music and songwriting. The combination feels like a soundtrack to a film that has yet to have been shot– it’s playful and dramatic, building upon a sonic pallet that’s part breathy ballad, part DIY chamber music, and part 80’s Japanese synthwork. Bachmann has released three records on Owen Ashworth’s (Advance Base) tight knit Chicago based label, Orindal Records, including Dream Logic which was released in 2021.

    Freedy Johnston • Chris Maxwell Dec 27

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

    Freedy Johnston is one of those rare singer-songwriters who counts critics among his biggest fans — and whose heroes consider him a peer. Not bad for a self-proclaimed “geek in glasses who never left his room.” In 1994 Rolling Stone named Johnston the ‘Songwriter of the Year’, describing him as “A master storyteller, (who) sketches out full-blown tragedies in a few taut poetic lines.” Adding, “He joins that elite cadre of songwriters—Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Elvis Costello—whose brilliant pop compositions turn magical with the addition of a defiantly idiosyncratic singing voice.”
     
    His new album, Back on the Road to You, is a return to grace for this gifted songwriter. It embodies the sound of an American original, reminding us that he is still considered one of the best songwriters of his generation.
     
    Veteran singer-songwriter, acclaimed guitarist, and Clio-award-winning composer Chris Maxwell’s new album, Nothingland, illuminates a troubled, recognizable world. Nothingland marks a departure from Maxwell’s previous two releases. The lauded, autobiographical Americana pair Arkansas Summer (2016) and New Store No. 2 (2020) comprised a return to the singer-songwriter realm after nearly twenty years as one half (with drummer/DJ Phil Hernandez) of record production/composer team Elegant Too, best known for their work on multi-Emmy-winning Bob’s Burgers. (Also Inside Amy Schumer, Silver Linings Playbook, as well as writing and producing for other artists such as They Might Be Giants, Yoko Ono and The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion.) It was the 2007 birth of his son that motivated Maxwell to re-assume the mantle of songwriter, harkening back to his days working with legendary producer Jim Dickinson in 80s power-pop band The Gunbunnies, and Grammy-nominated, art-damaged 90s NYC combo Skeleton Key.

    Aggie Miller • Wendy Eisenberg • Tōth Jan 4

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

    Aggie Miller is a 4 piece band from New York. The music is kind of like Sondheim, kind of like St Vincent. Mostly she just really hopes you know what she means by all of it.

    Wendy Eisenberg is an improvising guitarist, banjo player, songwriter, composer, and poet based in Western Massachusetts. Using the languages of free jazz, extreme metal, art song, and Tin Pan Alley, her music explores the questions surrounding the linguistic, representation, and technical demands placed on the body. This evening’s performance spotlights material in the language of the album she released on VDSQ, a label dedicated to the future of acoustic solo guitar music. Her guitar music has as much to do with the histories and languages of the guitar that she leaves out as it does with the languages she invents. This program of solo guitar music will integrate some of her sung material, but will primarily live in the rarefied, aesthetic world that the “Its Shape Is Your Touch” record introduces to you.

    Martina Liviero is a singer songwriter from Argentina, currently based in New York City.   Her sound effortlessly blends the complexity and sophistication of South American songwriting, with contemporary chamber music, experimental folk and jazz.

In 2015 he released the widely lauded recording New Day (Sunnyside), on which he performed his own songs.
     

    Old Feels is the solo project of guitarist and producer Asher Kurtz. Folk songs, IDM beats , cassette tape loops, and found sound sample chops create a comfy bed of nostalgic ambient texture and deep groove. His recent  album “Each Day” set to be out later this year, reflects on and explores the microcosms of childhood and how those memories impact everyday life.

    Ambient Pasta presents Rain Johannes & Weeze Jan 11

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

    Rain Johannes returns to The Owl to celebrate the 6-year anniversary of his album, “Overcome” by performing it in its entirety. Released in December 2018, Rain’s sophomore album builds upon the unique blend of introspective folk music, delicate classical guitar and hard rock first explored on his 2016 debut “Sunshine.” From the deep well dug by the likes of Joni Mitchell & Nick Drake, Johannes draws poetic lyricism and rich guitar harmony together to write his own stories of love, loss, and overcoming (naturally). Joined by multi-instrumentalist brothers Tom and Dan Criblez, you’ll be sure to hear “Overcome” at its fullest.

    Weeze is a multi-sensory artist always discovering and chasing new paths in his work. In music, piano became his greatest ally, exploring nostalgic melodies and creative arrangements of his compositions. Performing in collaboration with a variety of instruments and players, Weeze sets tend to be different every time he plays. Putting effort into the sequenced experience for his band and the audience, it allows space to do something that feels current and inspiring to everyone involved. Jan 11th, Weeze will explore a piano based collage, allowing songs and ideas to blend into each other. Weeze is also the director and lead curator for Ambient Pasta, the creative community event and production company based in Brooklyn, NY.

    Eric Gabriel • Joy Askew Jan 12

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

    Eric Gabriel is an NYC born and raised songwriter, pianist, and producer.  Once generously described as “somewhere between Bootsy and Willie,” Eric’s music is occasionally groovy, at times introspective, and always pulling from a wide array of folk, soul, and 70s rock as well as his experience playing with his band Melt for the past seven years.  This show will be entirely unreleased music off his upcoming debut solo album.  For this performance, Eric will be joined by Adam Brisbin, Julian Cubillos, and Sean Mullins.

    Joy Askew is a musician; she’s also an artist. For the former, she’s played keyboards and sang harmony with some of the biggest stars in music…”

    Now, as a reinvented musical poet, Joy has been a dedicated songwriter and performer for many years. Along the way she has sung in a choir featured on an EP by Sufjan Stevens, collaborated with a British brass band and released 10 solo albums. Her music has been described as “surprisingly contemporary, or rather, timeless. As in timelessly beautiful songs, singing, and arrangements.”

    With Luca Benedetti, guitar; Tony Mason, drums; and Andy Hess, bass.

    Worldwide Seagull • Peaceful Faces Jan 16

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

     

    Worldwide Seagull is a song-art project brined in humility, solitude, and truth – a take on humanness, in an alternate verse. Look closely, and you’ll notice we both drink fresh water… She strives to provide care and healing, living off her songs amidst an abundance of candles, with a high chance of having a hot tub in her apartment one day!  A native of California and based in Brooklyn, Anna Abondolo is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spans music, movement, visual art, and theater. Curious about individual experience, her work investigates memory, spatial environments, and their relationship to the physical body. Anna uses a combination of traditional notation, graphic scores, and text, writing for instrumental ensembles, vocalists, electronics, song, and bodies. 

    Peaceful Faces is a Brooklyn band that combines finger-picked guitar with vulnerable lyrics, sneaky chord progressions and warm brass arrangements. Tree Palmedo writes the songs and a crew of crack NYC instrumentalists helps make them better. Their most recent album, Sifting Through The Goo, Reaching For The Candlelight, was released in 2023, and their follow-up is due in 2025.

    Noah Garabedian Trio • Michael Sarian Jan 19

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

     

    While his quartet has been described as “the work of a band that’s developed the kind of telepathy only the road can build . . . there’s a late ’70s-early ’80s feel to the music throughout, more akin to the ‘stadium jazz’ of V.S.O.P. or Milestone-era McCoy Tyner” (Philip Freeman, The NYC Jazz Record), trumpeter and composer Michael Sarian has been praised for his “unique compositional and instrumental voice” (Friedrich Kunzmann, All About Jazz) and his “endlessly renewable strain of lyric improvisation regardless of context or material.” (Peter Margasak, Downbeat Magazine).

    Born in Toronto and raised in Buenos Aires, Michael relocated to NYC in 2012, and has performed at some of the most iconic international stages, including the Montreux Jazz Festival, Kennedy Center, Teatro Colón in Argentina, Blue Note Jazz Club, Jazz at Lincoln Center, BRIC JazzFest, and Central Park SummerStage. He has appeared on WNYC’s Soundcheck with John Schaefer, NPR’s World Cafe, and many more.

     

    The Noah Garabedian Trio, featuring Vinicius Gomes on guitar and Ele Howell on drums,  joins together to explore original music as well as music of Milton Nascimento, John Coltrane, and João Bosco. Their non-hierarchical approach is reflected in moments of spontaneous free improvisation and the transitions into new songs.

    Chase Elodia’s quartet is a Brooklyn-based ensemble. Founded in 2020, the group released their debut album, Portrait Imperfect, on Biophilia Records in May 2022. Hailed as an “artful” and “ambitious” ensemble by Downbeat Magazine, the band combines a collaborative and improvisational sensibility with an aesthetic orientation that has been nourished by singer-songwriters and electronic artists like Meshell Ndegeocello, Norma Winstone, and Becca Stevens.
