The CMC Presents concert series, curated by composer Nick Storring, is thrilled to showcase two innovative Canadian groups in the Chalmers Performance Studio, each exploring folk traditions through the lens of experimentalism.Led by composer Pete Johnston (guitar), STRANGER STILL features the interwoven vocals of Randi Helmers and special guest Laura Swankey, with bassist Rob Clutton providing the low-end foundation. Together they offer a distinctive take on songcraft that embraces multiple genres and musical eras, as well East Coast poetry.
COUNTRY PHASERS is a new project from beloved Toronto improviser Kurt Newman and filters its namesake genre through its performers’ boundless sonic curiosity. He’s heard on pedal steel guitar alongside bassist Andrew Furlong and Kayla Milmine (soprano saxophone).
Join us for an evening of contemporary Canadian music in-person or together online with a livestream from the performance space.
