Owen lectures at Jamie's Area in Toronto on May 20

[unstoppable]

Hi,

Just thought I'd let everyone know that Owen will be speaking at a new series at Jamie's Area, a multi-use space I co-run. It's a pay what you can event.

Here are deets:

TALKING SONGS

WEDNESDAY MAY 20TH
8 PM
@ JAMIE'S AREA, 193 AUGUSTA AVE., DOWNSTAIRS

Our speakers/selectors this time include all living members of acclaimed Toronto panic folk band Les Mouches. They will reunite (not really) to talk (not as a group but as individuals) about songs (not their own ones).

Owen Pallett is now Final Fantasy

Matt Smith is now Nifty

Rob Gordon now plays in New Feelings and Pony da Look

'Talking Songs' is a new series at Jamie's Area in which presenters play songs in their entirety and then talk about those songs. Narratives will be woven and parallels will be drawn, all within the potentially uncomfortable context of listening closely to recorded music communally. We recommend that you BRING YOUR OWN BLINDFOLD to place over your eyes during the musical portions of the evening so as to ease the tension and encourage closer listening.
