Join The Antlers and Okkervil River for an intimate evening where they will be playing old songs, new songs and each other’s songs.

The Antlers is both a band and the longtime musical moniker of Peter Silberman.  ‘Green to Gold’, a bucolic record which Pitchfork described as “a post-rock orchestra playing around a campfire… the sound of hard-won peace of mind, rendered in the lightest brush strokes.”

Over the course of his career, Will Sheff has released ten albums that have given the front man of esteemed indie rock band Okkervil River a reputation as one of the greatest working songwriters in the country. Sheff released his debut solo album, ‘Nothing Special’ in 2022 to critical acclaim from notable publications, with The New York Times saying it “Harnesses both the glow of poetry and the gravity of hymns.”

Silberman has always been an excellent lyricist, ‘Green to Gold’ feels flooded with a warm, morning glow. The songs are unhurried affairs, taking their time to unravel.”
