Join us for an evening of Poetry with Larry Olliver. :: Arts & Music

In the Telling: A Poetry Reading by Larry Olliver

Larry considers himself a poet of place, his work is rooted in the natural surroundings. He focuses on the specificities of bird and animal life, the plants and their life phases as the circle of the seasons turns, the complex, infinitely beautiful workings of the cosmos. There's a little philosophy, even a bit of politics, all wrapped up in immediate personal experience. The natural surroundings are the heart and substance of his creative -- and spiritual -- practice.

Whiskey Creek Zócalo - Acid Mother Temple w/ Magick Potion :: Arts & Music

Legendary Psych Rock from Japan! The unstoppable Japanese quintet Acid Mothers Temple brings their legendary, boundary-pushing psychedelic space-rock odyssey to our stage. Known for highly hypnotic and intensely loud improvisational journeys, the band seamlessly bridges the gap between 1960s acid-rock devotion, driving krautrock rhythms, and modern avant-garde noise. Led by guitarist Makoto Kawabata, their music often shifts from tranquil, cosmic chants to frantic, atonal instrumental frenzies that are both experimental and deeply spiritual.
