Talks & Entertainment

Listen to Kishi Bashi.

There will be a complimentary special screening of an early cut of K Ishibashi’s documentary film, Project 9066, 30 minutes after doors open. Project 9066 follows K Ishibashi on a dynamic musical quest to process his identity and the lessons learned from the Japanese Internment.

After touring for his two previous studio albums, 151a and Lighght, Kishi Bashi decided to submerge himself in a new musical direction. Feeling as though he was at a musical impasse, the artist’s new album, Sonderlust, was forged through heartbreak. The album represents a direct result of this personal struggle taking place at an artistic crossroads.

With the help of producer Chris Taylor (Grizzly Bear), engineer Pat Dillet (Angelique Kidjo, David Byrne), and drummer Matt Chamberlain (Morrissey, Fiona Apple, of Montreal), Bashi has created his most personal and artistically adventurous work to date.
