WKC Featuring Canadian, Local Performers Dec. 5

EAST MEREDITH — claire rousay, a Canadian-American experimental musician and composer based in Los Angeles is performing at the West Kortright Center on Friday December 5 at 7pm. Local Delhi musician Dani Derks will be the opening performer.

claire rousay’s music cascades from a well of documented experience, reflections of the past that compose the present. A prolific multi-instrumentalist, producer, and composer, rousay gracefully crafts boundaryless music. From her frequent and acclaimed collaborations to her film scoring, from her own compositions to her solo pop work, rousay’s music is delicate yet powerful, carefully constructed with a casual intimacy. rousay collages a wealth of found sounds and field recordings with earthy strings, stately piano, and processed instrumentation, all of which trace the outlines of memories and distinct impressions and create a complex constellation of feeling.

dani derks will be opening the show, they delight in creating their own environments for playful and exploratory music performance gestures.

Doors open at 6pm. Food and drinks will be available at the concession stand.
