In partnership with the UW Taiwan Studies Arts & Culture Program,听Town Hall Seattle is thrilled and honored to serve as the first stop on Small Island Big Song鈥檚 2022 U.S. and European tour. The event will also celebrate the release of their brand new collaborative album, Our Island听(releasing in late January, 2022).

Eight musicians and vocalists from Taiwan, Australia, Madagascar, Mauritius, the Marshall Islands, and Papua New Guinea join us on the Great Hall stage for an extraordinary multimedia project of music, spoken word, and visuals. Despite the geographic distance of their islands, they share one unified voice of the sea; from oceanic grooves to soulful island ballads, the artists establish a musical dialogue from a region on the frontline of significant cultural and environmental challenges.

The collective as avatar has taken diverse forms through the course of its career, sometimes changing personnel and artistic strategies in accordance with the changing exigencies of the time.
