MIKEL ROUSE RETROSPECTIVE CONCERT with JEFF McERLAIN at BITTER END

On April 29, 2017 Mikel presented a retrospective concert an National Sawdust, a special performance coinciding with the April 28 release of the video album ‘Hemisphere’. You can view the video here. This solo performance revisited Rouse’s 2010 avante-roots album ‘Corner Loading’ with a fresh interpretation including ‘Memory Projections’ and special musical guests. On March 24, 2025 Rouse will once again be joined by guitarist extraordinaire Jeff McErlain, bringing his blues guitar skills to Rouse’s unique take on Americana. Rouse will also be announcing the re-release of the first Tirez Tirez album ETUDES, on the Numero Group label.

Hemisphere is part of an ongoing series of pieces that combine new and old work to create a new perspective on the history of the work itself. Part assemblage and part memory, images and sounds are filtered through live performance to create an alternate reality: the slipperiness of memory.
