NEW ALBUM: ARREST
painting by Steve McClure
“On Arrest is art music based on folk and street music, or folk music itself. But the pieces might be described, by a music label, as classical, flamenco, jazz, blues … As a performer, I work to break down walls of genre and venue by choosing pieces from different genres that speak to each other in important ways …. Arrest is about the risks and joys of transgression. The women in the painting on [the] album’s cover are in trouble for fighting for women’s suffrage. Transgression is dangerous, but it’s also the way we make the most beautiful things.”
