About this Event
Creator Crossover is the Seattle Composers Alliance's newest program that inspires creatives of different disciplines to collaborate for a live recorded concert. For this first installment, we are excited to have paired up two types of music creators that wonderfully compliment each other's work: songwriters and arrangers. You won't want to miss these songs brought to new heights through the addition of piano, violin, cello, flute, and clarinet!

TOWNSEND'S SOLITAIRE: townsendssolitaire.com
"Bobby Odle, a Seattle based singer-songwriter performing under the moniker Townsend’s Solitaire, is a classically trained percussionist turned folk musician.
Whilst living in Ashland, Oregon, faced with completing a master’s degree in percussion performance, as well as a worldwide pandemic, Townsend’s Solitaire turned his creative eye towards poetry and songwriting. Drawing heavy influence from artists like The Tallest Man on Earth, Adrianne Lenker, Bright Eyes, and Sufjan Stevens – Townsend’s Solitaire prioritizes and treasures genuinity above all else. His music is primarily fingerstyle acoustic guitar paired with a single vocal line singing lyrics addressing common anxieties, loss, and a love for life in this world – all the while drenched in a somber melancholy and nostalgia. His ensemble has mixtures of cello, violin, flute, clarinet, and piano."
