Join us at 7pm on Saturday, February 3, as Alex McWalters gives a public reading/performance at The Residency at 821.
It has long been a goal of his to host a hybrid artistic event which showcases his work as both a writer and musician. This may include other members of River Whyless, as well as other local musicians, in a musical accompaniment to a literary reading. Given that much of his work is about music, and about his experiences as a musician, and that the work itself strives toward lyricism and musicality, he envisions a reading that features a live soundtrack, followed by a full musical performance. Among other things, he sees it as a way to bring together into one space his associations with both the musical and literary communities of Asheville.
