Following their much-heralded durational performance A 24-Decade History of Popular Music, Mac and Ray come together to celebrate the release of Bark of Millions, an original, illustrated songbook. Electrifying, provocative and disarming, this duet evening is an open call to community and celebration. In Mac’s own words, “If you’re not invited to the party, throw a better one.”
