Indie Folk: Sounds from the Northwest: Bigger Boat Concert
About the event
Join the museum for a free performance by Bigger Boat in the Pavilion Gallery on Friday, April 22 from 4:00-5:00 p.m. Bigger Boat is an a cappella group from Moscow, ID that sings sea shanties and maritime songs.
Live performances at the museum this month are an offshoot of the exhibition Indie Folk: New Art and Sounds from the Pacific Northwest, which features a playlist by Eric Isaacson of Mississippi Records. According to Isaacson, “the music genre Northwest Indie Folk could mean a lot of different things to different people. Our region is home to many cultures that have adapted their traditional folk music to the modern world: The term “Indie Folk” would apply to them all.”
An additional “Indie Folk” concert will be performed on Friday, April 29 from 4:00-7:00 p.m. featuring three music groups: Dragging an Ox Through Water, Whiting Tennis, and Raza NorthWest.
In collaboration with the WSU Student Entertainment Board.
