The Complete Recordings of Hezekiah Procter (1925-1930) is at once music, history, fiction, biography and recorded performance art. The songs were painstakingly recorded on both analogue tape, and using pre-electric, 1920s technology.
Enjoy a live performance of music at Dickinson Square that will take you back in time! Doors open at 6:30 pm, with the concert scheduled to begin at 7:15 pm.
