seen her perform before because they were picking their lower jaws up off their tables.
The performance was nothing short of enigmatic. The layered viola melodies coupled
with an incredible voice was enough to hypnotize me for the duration of her set."</font></span></div><span style="font-size:10pt;color:rgb(29,33,41)"><div style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:10pt"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">— Bellingham Herald</font></span></div></span><p></p>

<div class="gmail-column"><div style="text-align:center">Led to Sea is a magnetic chamber-pop ensemble led by Seattle-based violist, violinist, composer and singer Alex Guy that fuses classical, pop and experimental music. Her solo show has captivated audiences all over the U.S. and Europe, and draws comparisons to St. Vincent and Andrew Byrd. As a musician Alex has performed and collaborated with a virtual whose-who of bandleaders, composers, improvisers and jazz musicians in the Pacific NW and beyond. Notable collaborators include Sera Cahoone, Jerek Bischoff, Laura Veirs, Ahamefule Olou, Wayne Horvitz, The Seattle Rock Orchestra, Mirah, Amanda Palmer, Xiu Xiu, Paranthetical Girls and many more.</div>
<div style="text-align:center"><br></div><div style="text-align:center">Keys & Arrows is the collaboration between keyboardist Kiavash Adibzadeh and violinist/violist Amelia Riley Thornton. Their instrumental music features a classic sound with a hint of jazz, new age and a lot of improvisatory musical storytelling. Their original compositions take audiences on a voyage through bygone eras with exotic melodies, warm vibrato, and captivating solos. Keys and Arrows is the newest band on the Montana music scene and they are proud to call Missoula home.</div><p style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Times;font-style:italic;color:rgb(29,33,41)">Upcoming events in the 2019 Series includes:

Through lo-fi sound design, improvisation, and harmonically rich instrumentals, Missincinatti creates new work from old, in an act of sonic reuse and repurposing that dims the lights on old melodies, allowing inherent drama to emerge from the shadows. Missincinatti is Jessica Catron, Jeremy Drake, Sarah Marker, and Jon Filkins.</div><p style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Times;color:rgb(0,0,255)"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kaQHWEwCvAc">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kaQHWEwCvAc</a>
