Bjork and The Dirty Projectors
Friday, May 8 at 11:00pm
In a never before seen or heard collaboration with The Dirty Projectors, Björk will perform a suite of new music composed for her by David Longstreth of The Dirty Projectors. The suite, written for five voices, will pair Björk with the Projectors (*Dave Longstreth, Amber Coffman, Angel Deradoorian*, and Haley Dekle).
In 2008, the Dirty Projectors covered Björk’s “Hyperballad” for a Stereogum tribute CD, a track-by-track covers project that also includes Liars, No Age, High Places, and members of Grizzly Bear, among others. Housing Works Board Member and Stereogum Senior Writer Brandon Stosuy, who knew of Björk and David Longstreth’s admiration for each other’s work, approached the artists about performing together at Housing Works. It is their first collaboration.
With two opening acts selected by Bjork and The Dirty Projectors: Ólöf Arnalds and Kurt Weisman
