"Tamara Lindeman’s songwriting has reached stunn ing new heights... Her writing throughout can feel like the collected epiph anies from a lifetime of observing."Pit chfork
Co-presented with the Chan Centre for the P erforming Arts
JUNO-nominated\, Canadian folk music experimenters The Weather Station debut a special new collaborative performance for the Chan Centre’s EXP Series. For this concer t\, the band will be joined by a 10-piece orchestral ensemble featuring mem bers of UBC Contemporary Players. They will perform new arrangements of The Weather Station’s songs composed by award-winning Canadian composer Darren Fung and Mark Marinic\, UBC School of Music PhD candidate.
The Weath er Station is the ambitious and expansive musical project of Toronto’s Tama ra Lindeman. Her most recent albums\, Ignorance and How Is It That I Should Look At The Stars\, explore deep emotional landscapes\, as Lindeman reckons with the realities of climate grief and the ecological crisis through her songs. Her lyrics poignantly and achingly lament the los s of the planet instead of lost love.
The Weather Station’s music has been hailed by The New Yorker\, Spin\, The New York Times\, Pitchfork\ , and The Guardian for its ability to offer mirrors\, at the intersect ion of hope and determination\, that “dissolve into their surround ings and reflect back the shared fears and joys of our times” (The New York Times).
