Comfort Music: Ghost Voice
@ Comfort Station Logan Square
2579 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, IL 60647
Opening Thursday, August 18th, from 7PM - 9PM
Ghost Voice is a Chicago-based trio of pedal steel (Tom McGettrick), Wurlitzer 200 electric piano (Alison Hinderliter), and upright bass (Jeff Parker) playing a range of excerpts of classical works, from Villa-Lobos’ Bachianas 5 Aria to Bach’s Agnus Dei Aria from the mass in b minor.
Tom McGettrick arranges the pieces, which he began working on when his first child was born as a way to make quiet music around a baby as well as to explore the pedal steel’s possibilities beyond country. Alison Hinderliter (Scotland Yard Gospel Choir, The Handcuffs) and Jeff Parker (Joel Paterson, Rick Sherry, Chicago Cellar Boys), bring their classical training and extensive band experience to give these works the expert playing they deserve, while providing the popular touch that the audience deserves.
