The Thing Is will be performing every Sunday in February 2014 at the REX Hotel in Toronto!
We’ll be premiering a series of new compositions that were inspired by a trip with my partner, Nilan Perera, to Sri Lanka last year– still-evolving works that incarnate the confusion and joy, the alienation and familiarity, the highs and the lows of exploring a society in transition, rebuilding its bonds and institutions after a devastating 30-year civil war.
And there’s quite the line-up of lovely musicians to play it, too:
Tova Kardonne- voice and composition
Mike Wark- flute
Peter Lutek- alto sax
Ali Berkok- piano
Ted Quinlan- guitar
Jim Sexton- bass
Mark Segger – drums
