7-9 pm :: Wed. June 11, at Likewise Community (70 N. College Ave. in Fayetteville) :: Reserve a seat before they’re gone to a night with microplastique, a Chicago-based “avant-jazz toy instrument quartet” featuring multi-instrumentalists Ben Zucker, Molly Jones, Josh Harlow and Adam Shead. Toy pianos, bird calls, melodicas & flutes, oh my! This will be fun.
Under the direction of bandleader Adam Shead, the ensemble blends diverse skills and experiences to create a dynamic and eclectic sound that draws on a wide range of influences like the Art Ensemble of Chicago, Misha Mengelberg and Pauline Oliveros. Their debut album, Blare Blow Bloom! received “New and Notable” recognition at Bandcampand earned a 4-star review from All About Jazz, describing it as "a cacophony of sound that somehow manages to be both chaotic and
harmonious." We’ll have a donations snacks & drinks table set up. We can’t wait to resonate with you!
