Dubbed
a "one man band for the new century," Keller Williams
will bring his eclectic music to McDonald Theatre this
week. Williams, who is touring in support of his first
studio album, Home, is known not only for the successful
single, "Love Handles," but also for his syndicated radio
show, "Keller's Cellar: Somewhat Rule-less Radio," featuring
a variety of songs that mirror Williams' equally diverse
musical tastes. This week's performance promises to be
a fun one, with a mixture of Williams' awe-inspiring guitar
work and laughter-inspiring wit. See Thursday, March 25
Calendar.
Friends
and supporters of local activist Peg Morton have an
opportunity to show their support this week, at Peg's
Prison Preparation Party, held at Cozmic Pizza.
The party will include costumes, live music, a seed
swap and give-away, an open mic and a silent auction
to raise funds for Morton's legal expenses. See Sunday
Calendar.
The
UO's Faculty Artists Series spills over with pizzazz
this week, when faculty jazz pianist Toby Koenigsberg
(pictured) presents a full evening of selections at
Beall Concert Hall. Eugene's own Koenigsberg, a UO assistant
professor of jazz piano, has received several music
awards and has performed with renowned jazz musicians
such as Marian McPartland and Rich Perry. The performance
includes original music by Koenigsberg as well as jazz
standards. Fellow musicians Tim Willcox, Tyler Abbott,
Dave Captein and Jason Palmer also join Koenigsberg
for the evening. See Thursday, April 1 Calendar.
Andy
Friedman (pictured) is living proof that art can
be found just about anywhere. The 29-year-old Brooklyn
artist appears in clubs and bars across the nation,
coaxing profound beauty out of nothing but a slide projector,
some pencil drawings and photographs — and his
own imagination. Friedman's poetic monologue accompanies
the slide show, which he presents in bars and clubs
nationwide. The cool, quirky performance has earned
him praise from all corners of the country and the art
world, from The New Yorker to Nashville Scene.
See Friday Calendar..
