The Weather Station feat. UBC Contemporary Players

JUNO-nominated, Canadian folk music experimenters the Weather Station debut a special new collaborative performance for the Chan Centre’s EXP Series. For this concert, the band will be joined by a 10-piece orchestral ensemble featuring members of UBC Contemporary Players. They will perform new arrangements of The Weather Station’s songs composed by award-winning Canadian composer Darren Fung and Mark Marinic, UBC School of Music PhD candidate.

The Weather Station is the ambitious and expansive musical project of Toronto’s Tamara Lindeman. Her most recent albums, Ignorance and How Is It That I Should Look At The Stars, explore deep emotional landscapes. She has been praised by the likes of The New York Times and Pitchfork for her ability to poignantly reckon with the realities of climate grief and the ecological crisis through her songs.

Presented in collaboration with UBC Centre for Climate Justice.
