An afternoon of surprising sounds, beautiful songs and fantastic compositions, from a world traveling composer Sxip Shirey and his surprising guest artists. Shirey tests the edge of music using his vast imagination to create playful and mischievous songs using familiar objects, mutant instruments, electronics and reconfigured sounds. Shirey is a curious combination of composer-sound designer-performer meets storyteller-curator. Every Sxip’s hour of charm is an explosion of original ideas and energizing music that will have you out of your seat and dancing by the end of the show.
