~Nois Recital featuring the music of Nick Cline, Elijah Daniel Smith, and more.

Brooklyn-based composer/vocalist Cassie Wieland joins Chicago’s own ~Nois for “Birthday Party”, a collection of songs that serve as a doleful celebration of growing up. Praised by The New York Times as “sweetly shimmering,” Wieland masterfully experiments with timbre and texture by exploring intimate and fragile sounds to achieve the “hand-made” sound she is often looking for: imperfect, but intentional.
