Okapi is an Asheville, NC-based avant-folk duo that typically employs upright bass and cello, but has recently taken an alternative compositional approach using harmonium, cello, and voice to explore a contemporary interpretation of Appalachian-style murder ballad themes and other folk music elements, forming unique original pieces that thematically confront the complex relationship between man and the divine feminine of nature.

Halumnen is the electro-acoustic trio of Stephan Haluska, Naomi Columna, and Graham Rosen. Their project includes voice, harp, and other acoustic instruments processed through laptop electronics. Structural elements are ceded to the computer algorithm to examine the decision-making process in improvisation. Halumnen will present a multimedia work with accompanying video in 4-channel audio.

This event is something of a birthday party for Stephan Haluska. Come celebrate with good music!
