MacArthur Fellow and GRAMMY Award-winning mandolinist, singer, songwriter Chris Thile, whom the Guardian calls “that rare being: an all-round musician who can settle into any style, from bluegrass to classical,” and NPR calls a “genre-defying musical genius,” is a founding member of the critically acclaimed bands Punch Brothers and Nickel Creek. For four years, Thile hosted public radio favorite Live from Here with Chris Thile (formerly known as A Prairie Home Companion). With his broad outlook, Thile creates a distinctly American canon and a new musical aesthetic for performers and audiences alike, giving the listener ”“one joyous arc, with the linear melody and vertical harmony blurring into a single web of gossamer beauty” (New York Times).

SPECTRA is DISCO RIOT's spring show sharing stories of personal histories and cultures, magic, play and dreams featuring new works by DISCO RIOT company artists Marty Dorado, Zaquia Mahler Salinas, Chelsea Zeffiro, and guest artist Anna Brown Massey with company dancers Lauren Christie, Nicole Oga, Sol dela Rosa, and Odessa Uno Admission to this show is by donation ($12 per ticket for artists/students and $25 per ticket for general public suggested). Please reserve your seat in advance as tickets will not be available at the door. **Masks are required for all audience members.** About the Program: "Girldream" (1996) by Chelsea Zeffiro is a series of danced vignettes rooted in sensorial explorations of wish, play, and dream. The dance is the culmination of a task-based and improvisatory process with the DISCO RIOT company dancers. This work is accompanied by a digital mixtape which she has assembled during our process and which serves as a dedication to the performers. Marty Dorado is excited to present a new dance work in honor of his 10 year anniversary of moving to San Diego. His piece highlights the stories of four characters who use their past experiences to inspire their future paths in life. A dance of survival, friendship, and transformation, Hourglass Alchemy by Zaquia Mahler Salinas explores the questions: what are our inherited traumas, inherited triumphs, and inherited magic? The duet, performed with Chelsea Zeffiro, is dedicated to Desiree Cuizon. Anna Brown Massey’s newest work brings joyful, riotous fun to this Scottish fever dream of a dance. Massey highlights DISCO RIOT’s gift for musical virtuosity and explosive power to celebrate kinship and determination. Come for the art, stay for the party! Visit Disco Riot on Facebook+ Instagram

Dave Koz and Friends announce the 25th anniversary edition of the longest-running jazz-based Christmas tour. Kicking off on November 25 (Black Friday) at Atlanta’s Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre, the run will feature chart-topping, GRAMMY®-nominated saxophonist Dave Koz along with trumpeter Rick Braun and guitarist Peter White – artists that accompanied him on the road in the earliest years of the tour – as well as pianist Keiko Matsui and vocalist Rebecca Jade. The annual tradition began as a simple six-city tour with David Benoit that coincided with the 1997 release of Koz’s first Christmas album – "December Makes Me Feel This Way". This year, they’ll be playing 23 cities. While each year of the tour has been unique, the quintet has lots of surprises in store for 2022. For starters, they’ll be giving songs from the forthcoming companion album Christmas Ballads (25th Anniversary Collection) their live debut. Follow on Facebook & Instagram!
