Compilation Anti-Dote: Solstice 2010 | LaSaM Music

Compilation Anti-Dote: Solstice 2010 | LaSaM Music


LaSaM musicians and guests present altered, transformed, warped and other variations of seasonal music, experimental video and improvised projections in this celebration of deepest dark and return of the light.

Timothy Gosley will perform projected magic with video and reflected light. Grace Salez and Pamela Millar bring their video creations to be screened with live music. Stellar singer/songwriter Anne Schaefer will play piano and violin in addition to providing her beautiful voice to experimental versions of carols with the powerful sax sounds of George Tzanetakis and the quirky accordion, voice and flute emissions of Tina Pearson. Paul Charbonneau will again surprise with an electronic wizardry and there will be other interesting offerings to soothe your soul.

The 2009 edition featured performance projections by Grace Salez and short experimental films by Scott Amos, Grace Salez, Pamela Millar and Dianne Searle.
