A touch busy from attending Norcal Noisefest, but still plenty of things happening this week.
Racer Sessions: Julio Lopez
Julio Lopez is a creative musician and music teacher living on Tohono O’odham land / Tucson, AZ. They are interested in sound as thought and thought as sound. Their work orients towards ideas around repertoire (cherished knowledge), ornaments, and emptiness, and sifts through “American” popular and folk musics from diasporic perspectives threading through them.
They also will be playing later on in the week with sonora enjambre at the Chapel Performance Space on Thursday, October 19.
