Oropendola’s “Swimming” Album Release Show with Bergamot Quartet Jul 12
7:30 doors 8:00 music $17 online / $20.00 at the door
Oropendola is the project of Brooklyn-based singer, composer, and keyboardist Joanna Schubert, whose music blends theatrical chamber pop, playful dissonance, and lyrical storytelling. Her songs move between the whimsical and the intimate, drawing from keys-based art-pop and indie-folk traditions. Swimming, her sophomore record out June 27th, is an intimate and innovative piano-vocal collection eclectically adorned in minimal layers of flute, harp, harmonies, synths, strings, and bass. Harkening to inspirations such as Fiona Apple, Regina Spektor, and The Roches, the album captures Schubert’s penchant and reverence for unfettered live performance. For this release show only, Swimming will be brought to life in its entirety with a crew of NYC pals including Gabby Sherba, Elizabeth LoPiccolo, Ledah Finck, Nico Osborne, and Halsey Phillip Harkins.
Bergamot Quartet is an NYC-based ensemble dedicated to the ever-expanding collaborative and creative potential of the string quartet. They can be heard and seen regularly throughout New York and beyond, and are sought-after interpreters of 21st-century classical and classical-adjacent music. This set will feature music written by the quartet’s first violinist, Ledah Finck.Bergamot Quartet also includes Sarah Thomas (violin), Irene Han (cello) and joining for this show, Jordan Watt (viola). www.bergamotquartet.com
