92NY presents The Living Earth Show & Post:ballet: Lyra

• Travis Andrews, guitars
• Andy Meyerson, percussion

The myth of Orpheus and Eurydice is reimagined in this hauntingly beautiful collaborative production from the experimental San Francisco-based guitar/percussion duo The Living Earth Show and contemporary dance company Post:ballet.

In a breathtaking synthesis of ambient live music and dance filmed in the stunning landscapes of the California desert, Lyra is a transportive interdisciplinary experience reflecting on themes of love, loss, trust, and fallibility—and what they can illuminate about some of today's urgent issues.

About Travis Andrews, guitars

Travis Andrews is the co-founder, executive director, and electric guitarist in The Living Earth Show. In that capacity, Andrews' performances have been praised as "mind-blowing" and "a vanguard effort of new chamber music" by the San Francisco Examiner and "emotional, transcendent, and at times bursting with raw post-rock power" by the Charleston City Paper. In his work, he strives to use the tools of classical and contemporary music to foreground the voices and perspectives often marginalized by the tradition and its presentation.

Highly in demand as a solo artist, Andrews has been a featured soloist with the San Francisco Symphony, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, the San Francisco Contemporary Music Players, Eco Ensemble, and the Left Coast Chamber Ensemble.
