Rabble Without A Cause, October 23: The Flat Earth Society Orchestra
A preview of the November 6 show at the National Arts Centre of Flat Earth Society Orchestra - a 15-piece band from Belgium, celebrating its 25th year
The Ottawa Jazz Festival is bringing the Belgian group, Flat Earth Society Orchestra to the National Arts Centre on Wednesday, November 6. In this show I will play a selection from a live performance as well as dip into their new album, The One.
The group describes their music as “taking Belgian whimsy to a logical, irresistible extreme, [it] straddles the border between multi-color surrealism and savvy skill with striking ease”. Here’s a clip of them playing at the AMR Music Festival in Geneva in 2021.
You can listen live at 93.1 FM in Ottawa, or online at CKCUFM.com. The show will also be available on demand.
Note: the FM antenna at Camp Fortune is being repaired which may result in an interruption in radio transmission - online streaming will continue as normal.
