Krakauer & Tagg’s Square Peg Throwdown

Wednesday, November 8, 4:30–5:30 pm

Sierra View Library


Spearheaded by clarinetist David Krakauer and producer Kathleen Tagg, Square Peg Throwdown showcases an international crew of high-octane musicians. Square Peg Throwdown’s influences are global, but the sound they create collectively is uniquely their own. Familiar dance forms such as polka or square dance never sounded this way before, with hand drumming, propulsive electronic beats, deep grooves, and wailing clarinet.


A UNR Performing Arts Series presentation.
