Heritage Playhouse: Oliver Swain, Big Machine

A five-piece group from Victoria, BC, where close harmonies and intimate songwriting collide with psychedelic guitar, pedal steel, richly layered organ and intricate percussion. Featuring Ashley Wey (keys), Glenna Garramone (guitar and vocals), Tyler Lieb (guitars and pedal steel) and Alex Campbell (percussion), Big Machine takes listeners on an adventure through time—from 19th-century Appalachian field hollers to the outer reaches of group improvisation and contemporary songwriting.
