Always a pleasure to be back at Newport!
We’ll be giving the U.S. premiere of “Ebonite,” commissioned by the Hard Rubber Orchestra, alongside other music we haven’t previously performed at the festival. We are also excited to welcome two first-time co-conspirators to the Secret Society rhythm section: bassist Emma Dayhuff and drummer Rudy Royston.
