Cartoonist Georgia Webber presents her new book Dumb: Living without a Voice at Mac’s Backs in Cleveland on Thursday, September 27th at 7 PM! Part memoir, part medical cautionary tale, Dumb tells the story of how the book’s author copes with the everyday challenges that come with voicelessness.
And, stick around for a special performance of Toronto band Dust, who will be joined by Cleveland-area musicians. “Dust is the quietest big band in the known world. Founded in the early 20th century by beekeeper and violinist Abraham Dust, the ensemble began as a traveling novelty attraction known regionally throughout the southeastern United States until the Great Depression. Reconvened in Toronto nearly a century later with the blessing and guidance of its founder, Dust gracefully maintains the long held assertion that all which vanishes is not lost.” Free improvisation at a very very very low volume. This will be a rare experience. Don’t miss it.
This event is free and open to the public, but a hat will be passed for the touring musicians.
