NOSFERATU: Classic Horror Movie with live soundtrack by Invincible Czars
The Invincible Czars bring new life (and fresh blood) to the world’s first feature-length silent vampire movie Nosferatu (1922 FW Murnau) with a combined movie / live soundtrack experience that transports audiences back 100 years via an age-old tale accompanied by a by a chilling, tastefully-modern score featuring an impressive blend of traditional acoustic and present-day electric instruments. Nosferatu has endured for a century inspiring countless vampire films, video games, memes, publications and more. Known for composing eclectic music and consistently performing their live film soundtracks at art house cinemas, colleges and film festivals nationwide, the Czars perform their chilling soundtrack to audiences in the US and Canada. The live accompaniment experience marries the old-world charm of silent film with a contemporary electricity engaging multi-generational audiences. “With this centennial tour, we wanted to take a fresh look at this enduring piece of cinema,” said Josh Robins, Invincible Czars founder and bandleader. “Live accompaniment is as old as the silent film medium, but then and today, it’s usually a lone pianist or local band improvising or adapting pre-existing material. We spent a year creating this soundtrack and now we’re excited to perform it live.” Tickets$22 Advance$27 At the Door Minors OK when accompanied by a parent/guardianReview our Health & Safety Policies HERE

Rachel Baiman • Vivian Leva & Riley Calcagno
Originally from Chicago, Rachel Baiman moved to Nashville at eighteen, and has spent the last decade working as a musician in a wide variety of roles, from session musician (Molly Tuttle, Kelsey Waldon, Caroline Spence), to live sidewoman (Kacey Musgraves, Amy Ray), to bandmate and producer. Fiddle music was her first love, and she is known in the bluegrass and old time world for her work with progressive acoustic duo 10 String Symphony with fiddle player Christian Sedelmyer. Her first solo album Shame, was produced by Andrew Marlin of Mandolin Orange, and established her role as part of a new generation of political songwriters. Since 2017, Baiman has toured her solo project internationally with appearances at the Kilkenny Roots Festival in Ireland, the Mullum Music Festival in Australia, and the Kennedy Center Millenium Stage in Washington, DC. Vivian Leva & Riley Calcagno’s self-titled record is old-soul roots music to its core. Though both just out of college, the duo’s musical talents extend far beyond their years. Produced by GRAMMY-winning Cajun roots heavyweight Joel Savoy at his Louisiana studio, Vivian Leva & Riley Calcagno (released March 12, 2021 on Free Dirt Records) is not some soulless collection of songs imitating previous masters of American music. Rather, the pair has responded to one of the darkest eras in American history with an album of stunning breadth and originality.
