APR 8 – BUCKET SHOW
MUSIC
River Rising comprises the musical talents of Megan Deiger and Tim Hazen, whose voices tightly weave country and folk music over a backbone of bluesy sensibility. Lyrically, they capture heartache, waywardness, and emotional strength with a soulful quality reminiscent of a spiritual. Simple orchestration of accompaniment is welcome, allowing words, melodies, and often ethereal harmonies to take the lead on each song. That said, piano and violin punctuate songs like a subconscious, while guitar maintains rhythm like breath or a heartbeat. Listen here.IMPROV
Pancakes on Sunday (Eric Akeson, Nick Hasslebrock), mix long and short form improv together for three years. They’ve performed at the Chicago Improv Festival and the Columbus Unscripted Festival. They both have blonde hair and one is good looking.STORYTELLING
