James Irwin

James’ songs reflect his meditative, monkish kinda way of life. He’s highly ritualized, level, meticulous, focused. He leans to the past and loss; loves water, explorers, ideas like levitation, silver light, and slack water; long, drawn out, warm sounds. In 2012 he released a first album as himself, Western Transport. Hear it at //jamesirwin.ca

With a presentation from producers of the grassroots radio project Migrant Voices.

Doors at 8 pm. Concert at 9 pm.
