\nModern classical. Avant-garde. Ambient. No Wave. The collaborative music of Sarah Hennies and Tristan Kasten Krause could be described using any of those labels, plus some others. None of those words quite get to the heart of what they do. But for the listener who\u2019s adventurous and open to something really different, challenging and unexpected, this is an event well worth considering.<\/p>\n

Artist<\/b>: Barrington Levy<\/a>

\nBarrington Levy is a pioneering Jamaican reggae and dancehall artist, known for his distinctive vocal style and major influence upon the genres. Levy debuted on record with 1979\u2019s Bounty Hunter<\/i>. His work with famed producer Henry \u201cJunjo\u201d was creatively and commercially successful as well. His worldwide breakthrough came with Englishman<\/i>, one of four albums he released in \u201879. That record featured the Roots Radics rhythm section. Levy has been at the forefront of combining reggae traditions with modern electronic textures. His work has been sampled by Kanye West, Notorious B.I.G., Sublime, Ol\u2019 Dirty Bastard and many others.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/30do_remantlists.jpg\")

\nJust over a year ago, Asheville multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Chris Tullar decided to give himself a challenge: write a rock opera, using the song titles of The Kinks\u2019 classic concept album Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)<\/i> as a prompt. Nothing beyond that, through; his Not Arthur<\/i> has no connection to the Kinks\u2019 work beyond those titles. He assembled a who\u2019s who of Asheville talent to perform it, and \u2013 you guessed it \u2013 they also staged Arthur<\/i> in its entirety. The event was billed as a one-night-only enterprise. But we\u2019re lucky that Tullar has reconvened the players for a year-later encore. I interviewed him about it in 2024<\/a>. Double Love and the Trouble open.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/30do_petsoundslive.jpg\")
Artist<\/b>: Pet Sounds Live<\/a>

\nEven before Brian Wilson passed away, Pet Sounds<\/i> had long since taken its place as one of the most important, groundbreaking and influential albums in rock history. Hell, it even influenced The Beatles. Casual Beach Boys fans somehow tend to overlook it and its sublime brilliance, but for those who appreciate its beauty, 1966\u2019s Pet Sounds<\/i> provides among the most fulfilling half hour\u2019s worth of music on the planet. This outfit \u2013 which may or may not still feature the incomparable Jason Brewer<\/a> \u2013 recreates it live onstage.<\/p>\n
