Penetrating photography and rich Americana music are combined in a multifaceted performance of amazing artistry and history. Using eccentric folk photographer Mike Disfarmer’s stoic portraits as inspiration, guitarist and revered American musician Bill Frisell has created a profound suite of music to accompany Disfarmer’s photographs. He tells the tale of an eccentric recluse in 1940s Arkansas and the subjects of his pictures.Violinist Jenny Scheinman and lap steel guitar player Greg Leisz join Bill Frisell for this Illinois premiere.
