Lacey In Tune - Ian Dobson: Off Site Event at Huntamer Park

This library-sponsored event is occurring off-site at Thomas Huntamer Park, 618 Woodland Square Loop SE, Lacey, WA 98503. Ian shares the joy of exploring other cultures through music by recounting his quirky musical journey from Seattle grunge kid to Steel Drum musician. Throughout history there have been different groups of people who wanted to make music but faced challenges that prevented them from doing so. The show explores how these groups overcame this adversity by inventing creative ways to make music by repurposing and recycling. The program is interactive, with the audience participating throughout as they learn about musical innovations such as steel drums, the hambone rhythm, and the cha cha cha dance.
