[whiteymuseum]

For Immediate Release:

FRIDAY JULY 22

@ CASBAH

9PM -- 306 King St W @ Queen, downtown Hamilton

FINAL FANTASY, GREAT LAKE SWIMMERS, THE REST

"Owen Pallet maxes out his charisma and magic points to an utterly obscene level. Transforming from String Arranger to the Stars (having not only the arrangements for the Arcade Fire's Funeral CD to his credit but also worked with/for the Hidden Cameras, the Jim Guthrie Band, Do Make Say Think and so on and on and on...) to "world's most amazing solo performer" he deftly commands entire string orchestras to swarm out of his single violin and looping pedal. Audiences of thousands have been horribly transfixed!"
