Carey (who is also drummer for Bon Iver). It's a multimedia performance, including video from filmmaker Finn Ryan. The concert is presented by the North Shore Music Association, which Molly says curates “an excellent calendar of music throughout the year.”Molly adds: I can recall the first time that I saw them. I was blown away by their performance, with the drumming and the vocal soundscapes. And I said, “I'm going to see them wherever I can.”It's very multi-sensory. They have a vast array of instrumentation that they use, and then there's a beautiful visual backdrop. It's a film that they created to really support and amplify the storytelling aspect of it. The first time that I saw them, it became pretty clear that the intention really is to engage the listener on many levels, and with a purpose of [creating] human connection.— Molly DeanMagical realism without wordsActor Natalie Rae Wass of Minneapolis recently saw “Apartment 2B” at Red Eye Theater. There are no words in this masked show, which brings the characters in an apartment building together with a dash of magical realism. There are three more chances to catch the show: Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m.Natalie says: It is a beautiful show that is created without spoken word. So it uses, of course, body language and scenery and lighting, music, sound effects to tell the story; but that makes it really universal and allows all of us to really see ourselves in every character. We laugh at our shared annoyances and insecurities but also celebrate our shared triumphs, and you know the possibility of humanity coming together.— Natalie Rae WassLetterpress with global reachDoris Rubenstein of Richfield recommends exploring the art of letterpress printmaking at the “Just Letters” exhibit at the Olson Gallery at Bethel University in St. Paul. There's a reception and letterpress demonstration with David Wolske Thursday from 6–8 p.m. in the gallery. The show runs through Dec. 19.The exhibit includes nine artists based in Minnesota and around the world. Rubenstein is a particular fan of Detroit-based Lynne Avadenka.Doris says: Her resume is about as long as my left arm. I've seen her work, and I only wish I had room on my walls for some of it.— Doris Rubenstein
