{ "name":"Yea Big’s Neuroplasticity featuring Nonlinear Field and Gerrit Hatcher and Erez Dessel", "description":"

The Museum is excited to host local musician Stefen Robinson, who performs as Yea Big, for a "Neuroplasticity" concert on Saturday, September 6 at 7:00 p.m.

The performances feature improvised and experimental music from Robinson and various local and visiting musicians. Chicago duo, Gerrit Hatcher (saxophone) and Erez Dessel (piano) will headline the show.

Hatcher and Dessel will present a new project rooted in tradition but looking ahead, never bound by aesthetics and deeply grounded by an improvisatory practice that spans space and time.

Nonlinear Field, featuring Yea Big (bass clarinet and guitar), Jon Byler Dann (double bass and gong), and Michael Carlson (drums and percussion) will open the show with improvised, meditative music inspired by jazz, experimental composers, and zazen.

Tickets are $10 at the door (cash only) and the performance will be held in the Museum’s second floor courtroom. All proceeds benefit the performing artists and the Museum.
