Imago welcomes Jake Blount on Sunday

Posted

Imago Foundation for the Arts  welcomes Jake Blount, an award-winning interpreter of Black folk music. In his hands, the banjo, fiddle, electric guitar and synthesizer become ceremonial objects. His music tells an Afrofuturist story that merges centuries-old traditional songs with the trappings and techniques of modern Black genres for a “genrequeer” approach to the traditions.

WHEN: Sunday, Nov. 12, 4 p.m.; doors open at 3:30 p.m.

COST: $18

Jim McGaw

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
