Gabriel Kahane Celebrates His Major Label Debut: "The Ambassador"
Hailed by Rolling Stone as "one of the year's very best albums," Gabriel Kahane's major label debut, The Ambassador, is a meditation on the underbelly of Los Angeles seen through the lens of ten street addresses: one song per address. Named for the demolished hotel that housed early Academy Awards ceremonies and where Bobby Kennedy was assassinated, The Ambassador is a song cycle based on life in Los Angeles from WWII to the present day. Weaving modern chamber music with elements of folk, pop, and jazz, Kahane explores everything from the architecture of R.M. Schindler and Richard Neutra to the tragic death of Latasha Harlins at the hands of a Korean grocer. Kahane's musical performance at the Poppy will be a sonic taste of the upcoming staged version of The Ambassador, directed by Tony-winner John Tiffany, to be showcased at The Harvey Theater as part of the 2014 BAM New Wave Festival.
Doors open at 7pm. Show starts at 7:30pm.
Tickets are $17/advance, $20/door.
The Red Poppy Art House is located at 2698 Folsom St, San Francisco, Ca 94110.
