Deer Lake Gallery is set to come alive with music.
The gallery is continuing its Live at the Gallery concert series this winter, with the next performance coming up on Friday, Jan. 19. Visitors are invited to stop in for the performance starting at 7 p.m.
The concert features guitarist Matt Silverman, who holds a bachelor’s degree in performance specializing in classical guitar. He performs solo and with the Capilano Guitar Trio at locations around the Lower Mainland, and he also teaches at the Neil Douglas Guitar Shop in New Westminster.
He’ll be joined by Wallgrin, the experimental art-pop solo project of composer, violinist and vocalist Tegan Wahlgren.
“With reverence for female mythological figures, Wallgrin delves into the space between extremes of beauty and dissonance, expressed through layers of strings and exploratory human vocals,” a press release says.
On Friday, Feb. 9, the Live at the Gallery series continues with a performance by two New Westminster artists: Stephen Carl O’Shea and HARGOW. O’Shea is the bass player and a co-founder of the band You Say Party, who now explores ambient dance music through the use of synthesizers, samples and drum machines. HARGOW is an experimental sound artist who focuses on electronic ambience and noise.
The gallery is at 6584 Deer Lake Ave. Admission for Live at the Gallery events is pay-what-you-can at the door. See www.burnabyartscouncil.org or call 604-298-7322 for more information.
