Sympathetic String Band & Friends with Colin Fisher

Sympathetic String Band returns on Sunday, June 28th alongside local polymath Colin Fisher! Join us for a night for acoustic improvisations from 7:30-9:30pm in the Southern Cross.

"The Sympathetic String Band is a Toronto-based music ensemble that fuses renaissance tonality with improvisational modalities. Inter-weaving a multitude of stringed instruments such as Appalachian and hammered dulcimers, bowed and plucked psaltries, and guitars tuned and played outside the boundaries of standard technique, the group explores music through free improvisations, often within the context of a prompt, concept, or tuning.

The group has been in residence at the Tranzac on the fourth/last Sunday of the month from 7:30-9:30pm for over year now. Each month brings an opportunity to feature new artists and practices, and welcomes their collaboration in a group improvisation with the ever-changing Sympathetic String Band ensemble. "
