About this Event
Electric cellist, vocalist and composer Jami Sieber is a celebrated pioneer of her instrument with an inspiring and fearless style of performance that has been recognized internationally. Employing looping devices and electronics to create sounds never before associated with the cello, Sieber transforms her solo instrument into an orchestra of sound that opens the heart, defies the mind, and sets the body dancing. Sieber’s musical path moved from classical to folk to rock/pop where, within her popular band Rumors of the Big Wave (1985-1995), she garnered the coveted Northwest Area Music Association (NAMA) Award for Best Rock Instrumentalist. From there she launched her solo career, performing original compositions around the world and diving into dynamic collaborations with an extraordinary spectrum of singer/songwriters, dancers, poets, visual artists, improvisers, and instrumentalists that span the globe.
In this performance, Jami will be performing solo, her original work that spans a career of 45 years and 9 independently produced recordings along with some new compositions. Arrive prepared to be taken on a musical journey led by her multiple layers of electric cello, gorgeous melodies, poetry, and story. This will be her final concert in Seattle before moving to Minneapolis, MN.
