Adrienne Torf & Voices of the Revolution

Posted

San Francisco-based pianist and composer Adrienne Torf will perform with Voices of the Revolution, a Lansing-based group of women spoken-word artists and gospel singers, 7:30 p.m. Sunday (April 21) at UrbanBeat in Old Town. The event aims to raise funds for Voices’ trip to Washington to join Torf in performances of her Helen Hayes Theater Award-winning musical program, “Poetry for the People: The June Jordan Experience,” which combines her music with the poetry of the late African American writer and activist June Jordan.

The UrbanBeat show will include selections from Jordan and Torf’s 2003 album, “Collaboration,” as well as gospel and spoken-word performances by Voices and an art auction.

Tickets are $15 in advance, $20 at the door or $10 for students with ID. To purchase tickets and learn more about the performers, visit urbanbeatevents.com.
