Join us as we toast the fall/winter season with our fundraiser event “Fall Frequencies” at the Stone Circle Theatre. We're looking forward to explore the rhythms that weave our community together.

Opening the show will be duo, Lubomir Smilenov on kaba gaida (Bulgarian bagpipe) and Matt Moran on tupan (Balkan drum). Our two groups recently had the pleasure of playing at the Ragas Live festival at Pioneer Works. Lubomir and Matt blew us away so much with their set that we had to invite them to play with us.
