8pm – 9:30pm
A red fleece vest. A lover’s pillow. A rabbit in the snow. In Here Here, 8 Vancouver writers contribute lyrics about their connection to the people, places, and things that make up home. Local composers Mishelle Cuttler and Molly MacKinnon shaped these words into songs that are in turns poignant, sexy, and sometimes hilarious. This collection of gorgeous tunes will be performed by a bespoke band of Vancouver faves, including Christine Quintana, Doug Gorkoff, Alan Ruiz, Sally Zori, and Cat Hiltz with an opening set from harpist/songwriter Elisa Thorn. From family histories to social anxieties, nature to migration, Here Here runs the gamut of story and style to offer a cohesive evening of reflections on ‘home’.
