Faun Fables
FAUN FABLES is a crossroads where ancient ballad, art song, physical theater and rock music meet. The lyrics speak to people of all ages about things like rugged housekeeping, street kids, growing old, sleepwalking and exiled travelers returning home.
FAUN FABLES has been attracting a devoted and eclectic following since 1997 with numerous performances throughout North America, Europe, Israel, Australia, New Zealand, Iceland and six record releases distributed worldwide on Drag City Records: EARLY SONG (1999), MOTHER TWILIGHT (2001), FAMILY ALBUM (2004), THE TRANSIT RIDER (2006), A TABLE FORGOTTEN (2008) and LIGHT OF A VASTER DARK (2010).
DAWN McCARTHY was raised in Spokane, WA by two piano players from Chicago and grew up making sounds and dances with a big family.
Her primary education and inspiration have come from all kinds of unorthodox and self-taught means. At home, her parents played romantic, impressionistic and folkloric melodies via Bartok and Debussy, while older siblings helped develop her taste for rock and experimental music. In New York City, Dawn studied at the School Of Visual Arts and New School for Social Research and cut her teeth as a performer with several adventurous theatrical and musical groups.
A solo & musical exploration through Europe plus a fateful meeting with Oakland based entertainer NILS FRYKDAHL began a creative chapter in 1997 that eventually relocated her to the thriving arts community of the Bay Area, California in 1998; where she returned to in 2011 after a stint in the countryside that brought forth two girl children; EDDA and URA.
Currently, she is primarily a storyteller, housekeeper and mama witch.
Barbez
Gorgeous old-world cabaret collides with modernity in this unique Brooklyn-based ensemble, which wrings elements of European folksong, post-war classical, and experimental rock into an otherworldly soundscape. For this performance the group will be playing new works along with pieces from their last record, Bella Ciao (Tzadik), which was inspired by ancient Roman-Jewish melodies and the Italian Resistance during the Second World War. With: Dan Kaufman, guitar; Danny Tunick, vibes, marimba; Peter Hess, clarinet and bass clarinet, Catherine McRae, violin; Peter Lettre, bass; John Bollinger, drums.
Rebecca Moore
The singer, songwriter and violinist Rebecca Moore left the NYC music scene some seven years ago to work in the trenches of the animal rescue community where she has been advocating for and assisting formerly abused farm animals in upstate New York and beyond. She is thrilled to be rejoining her musical human family for this special show, her first performance in many years. With: John Frazier (guitar), Pinky Weitzman (violin), Ursula Wiskoski (cello), Dan Kaufman (guitar), Danny Tunick (bass), and Christy Davis (drums).
