RIDE Concert with Marc Berger

Join us for an afternoon of music with musician Marc Berger as he plays songs from his latest album, RIDE. In addition to performing his songs, he'll also share memorable stories of his experiences as an easterner in remote parts of the mountain and desert West, along with the ways those experiences influenced the writing of the songs.

Join us on January 18th at 3pm in the Grice Community Room. No registration required!

About the album:

Clouds that forever stampede the endless sky, shadows gliding over canyon walls– the West is a vast expanse of magic and mystery. American artists from John Ford to Frederick Remington to A.B. Guthrie have used film, canvas and the printed page to convey the essence of its unique landscape and mythology.

Inspired by Marc’s lifelong love affair with the American West and produced by Marc and Mike Ricciardi, RIDE now presents ten cinematic recordings capturing the vastness and romance of the West while exploring its deep roots in the American psyche. From the haunting message and beat of “Twister” and the soul-shaking challenge of taming a wild horse in “Take it on the Chin”, to the sexy, mind-blowing, middle-of-nowhere encounter of “Time Waits For No Man” and on through seven more scenic stops, RIDE takes you on a dusty tour of the Great American Frontier.
