Holly Tannen

celebrating the release of her new CD
Door 7:30 P.M., Music 8:00 P.M. | Purchase advance tickets: $18.50

Join multi-instrumentalist and singer Holly Tannen as she celebrates the release of her fourth CD, Crazy Laughter: Seven Years with the Spirit of Arthur Rimbaud. The multi-faceted performance features pieces from Holly's play Practical Alchemy: An Exquisitely Perverse Grace, settings of her translations of the poetry of Rimbaud, and satirical songs about Mendocino life, with Holly providing vocals and mountain dulcimer and piano accompaniment. She is joined on stage by some great musical cohorts, including multi-instrumental wizard Danny Carnahan, fabulous songstress Sylvia Herold, fiddle mistress Shira Kammen, harpist Maureen Brennan, and the wonderful Andean duo Chaskinakuy.

In the words of Rimbaud himself, "This language will be of the soul and for the soul, encompassing everything: sound, scent, color, thought catching thought and pulling."
