Opening Reception for Sound in Visions: Music is the Muse
featuring a performance by Linda Goldie Hagood!
Saturday, May 2, 4-6pm

Galloping in her own terrain, Linda Goldie Hagood brings her voice and musical vision to light with sweet hearted whimsy and joy. After being in Smack Dab (1990 to 1995 in New York City) and the Double U (1996 to 2003 in San Francisco) and then back in NYC from 2003 to 2008, Linda has found herself in the woods of northern California. There she and her music are interacting with the shadows and the dream world in a way that feels more grounded. Previously rumpus and circulatory driven by city experiences, she now finds herself able to take in the sounds of nature and the darkness of the woods with wonder and serenity. Playing with bringing light to the shadows , Linda often incorporates creatures and gives them aurographic mythology. She welcomes jackalopes, owls, and pussycats to her songwriting . All of these elements bring a quieter Linda who previously enjoyed a rowdier splash of sound effects and raucous vocal expression.
