This year our Sound On concerts are going global! Join us for a new spinoff to our popular series which will feature instrumental artists across all genres from classical to jazz to everything between. You’ll continue to meet fresh faces experiencing a meteoric rise as well as tried-and-true musicians who are creating their most resonant work to date.
Acoustic Nomads (Sofia Chiarandini, violin; Ethan Setiawan, mandolin; Noah Harrington, upright bass and Maurizio Fiore Salas, Venezuelan cuatro & guitar) returns to CitySpace to perform songs from their new album, “The Abominable Stringband Vol. 2.”
The Boston-based group, brings together musical traditions from North and South America in a global amalgamation and reimagination of the string quartet with influences from Appalachia to jazz that travel south to the sounds of Venezuela, Peru, Argentina and Brazil.
Both “The Abominable Stringband Vol. 1” and “The Abominable Stringband Vol. 2” will be available for purchase at the event.
