Description

Old Sloop Coffeehouse will present a performance by Marc Berger and RIDE on Saturday, February 8, at 7:30 PM at the handicap-accessible First Congregational Church of Rockport, 12 School St. In a Navajo reservation trading post, veteran New York musician Marc Berger discovered THE BIG IT, a book of stories by A. B. Guthrie. Berger decided to write songs in the tradition of writers like Guthrie and visual artists like John Ford. The result: RIDE, ten cinematic recordings capturing the vastness and romance of the West and exploring its roots in the American psyche. Berger and band will perform this music as an audio-visual presentation with photographs of dramatic Western settings.
