Marc Ribot Solo: Mainstage - Jazzfestival 2014
This event has already taken place.„Protest Songs“
USA
Marc Ribot - guitar, vocals
Riddled with clichés, the idea of the “protest song” is deeply embedded in our collective consciousness. Anyone who listens to Marc Ribot’s interpretation of protest songs, however, can expect an unusual outcome, because this extraordinary guitarist’s aesthetic sensitivity runs counter to any standardized formulas. His unconventional—yet completely logical—compositions are openly structured and rich in contrast. While staking out his artistic territory in the contemporary music scene, Ribot connects with a tradition of musical protest more or less explicitly in these deconstructed songs.
