Grand Luxe Hall, Western Front

Time:

8:00 p.m.

Description:

Jean Martin, Justin Haynes, and Ryan Driver performed the music of Myk Freedman that was inventively composed only with a ukulele and suitcase. In this iteration, Martin was on the suitcase and Haynes was on the ukulele. A third component was added that still abided by the lo-fi production ethos. In this case, it was a street-sweeper-bristle bass, an actual tine of metal played off the side of a wooden block by Driver.
