We are self-taught artists who create work inspired by healing, nature, travel, and personal experiences.

Brennan Connors & Stray Passage is a jazz trio lead by saxophonist Brennan Connors. The ensemble embraces free and structured improvisation, original compositions, and groove based experiments. Geoff Brady (Yid Vicious) is featured on drums and percussion; BC Grimm on Contra-cello (and a variety of Chinese string instruments). The breadth of the group ranges from focused minimalism to fiery high energy music, all while maintaining a sense of narrative organization throughout performances.

For this performance, the Stray Passage will be joined by the Sockrates Carnival of Sock Puppet Morals and Logic. The Sockrates troupe employs dialogue, music and socks to convey the wealth and breadth of the human (and sock) experience. This performance will feature such talents as lead puppeteer Kia Karlen, along with Maggie Weiser, Steve Burke, Alex Burke, Jonathan Zarov, Lisa Marine, and probably more. This show will feature selections from the Willy Street Co-op Reader and other venerated texts.
