STRANGER DAYS FEAT. ELIANA GLASS + ELI GREENHOE | JULY 17 7:30PM

Adam O'Farrill is a composer and trumpeter born, raised, and still based in Brooklyn, NY. Coming from a long musical lineage as well as an ethnically diverse background, O'Farrill's work is both respectful and contentious with regards to the borders of genre and form. NPR wrote of Adam's 2018 release, El Maquech, "Adam O'Farrill likes to mix his music, as befits a New Yorker of Cuban, Mexican, Jewish, African-American, German, Irish heritage. His music affirms that a diverse population feeds a robust culture." O'Farrill has worked with artists such as Mary Halvorson, Rudresh Mahanthappa, Mulatu Astatke, Arturo O'Farrill, Kambui Olijimi, Anna Webber, Brasstracks, and Samora Pinderhughes. He has also released two albums as a bandleader, Stranger Days (2016, Sunnyside Records) and the aforementioned El Maquech (2018, Biophilia Records), with the New York Times writing of the former, "Marshaling a sharp band of his peers — Chad Lefkowitz-Brown on tenor saxophone; Walter Stinson on bass; and Zack O’Farrill, his older brother, on drums — Mr. O’Farrill establishes both a firm identity and a willful urge to stretch and adapt."

Eliana Glass (b.1997) is a singer, pianist and visual artist. Born in Australia and raised in Seattle, she began singing and playing piano from a young age. Currently based in New York, Eliana pursues her passions of music, visual art and writing, continuously gaining insight into each medium through the other.

Eli Greenhoe (b. 1994) is a composer, songwriter, and guitarist hailing from Brooklyn, New York. His works have been commissioned and performed by such artists and ensembles as loadbang, Bergamot Quartet, Aki Takahashi, S.E.M. Ensemble, and George Manahan, among others. His music has been programmed at the Bang on a Can, Chatter, Yellow Barn, Ostrava Days (CZ), and Tokyo to New York (JP) festivals. In 2018 he was awarded a Charles Ives Scholarship from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Recently, he was selected as a finalist in the Beth Morrison Projects “Next Generation” program.

A performing songwriter since age 10, Greenhoe has led bands in New York City and elsewhere nearly his entire life. Greenhoe is also active in interdisciplinary collaboration: most recently he scored Sanctuary, a film by Max Bowens, which was selected to be screened at the 2020 Maryland Film Festival. Greenhoe is a DMA candidate at the Yale School of Music, where he completed his M.M. in 2018.
