The official Concrete Frequency writeup offers a hint of what to expect at this evening’s final Concrete Frequency I performance:

From the bright lights to the dark alleys, music has allowed city dwellers an outlet for their joy, urgency, depression, and heartache. Whether it’s a lighthearted pop song or an elegy of isolation, come inside to hear the walls of the city sing.

    So what’d you guys think of this show? For those that didn’t make it out: M Ward joined Zooey, Van Dyke Parks joined Inara, and Stevie Jackson somehow convinced five of the other performers to join him for a song about an “electric box”

Wouldn’t it be great to have someone organize more showcases like this!?
