7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation
In Swedish multidimensional musician Mika Akim’s solo project, she works in a song-based direction, while still giving plenty of space for her viola and viola d’amore. She has been described as a musical sister to artists such as Sam Amidon, Adrienne Lenker and Joni Mitchell, and writes songs rich with both melancholy and defiant hope. Her minimalistic music consists of ostinatos, textural sounds on stringed instruments and simple melodies, with texts about the body, memory and time. Since her debut in 2020, Mika Akim has released two albums “Till Kroppen” and “Tillsammans” and played concerts in Denmark, Sweden, Czech Republic, Germany, France and Chile.
Freddy and Sally is the chamber–folk duo of composer/instrumentalists Eli Greenhoe and Ledah Finck. Based in a shared reverence for the Appalachian and Irish folk music they grew up steeped in, the duo works collaboratively to layer and weave together intricate arrangements of original and traditional songs with a preference towards unconventional sounds and structures.
