About this event

Music Performance with Velvet Penny, World Assembly Body Opera and Keepsake | Tues. Oct. 27, 2026 | Doors open 6:30 pm For Tickets, Click HERE Join us for a special music performance by Velevet Penny, World Assembly Body Opera and Keepsake. Tickets are on a sliding scale; please choose the level you can support the artists. Keepsake Bio: Keepsake 1 Million is the musical project of renowned con artist Willem Cousineau. In October of 2025 he released his debut album Every Night I Get Vertigo, a cathartic introduction to his songwriting. Since then he has played his songs with a revolving band of outstanding musicians and the sound has grown more eccentric and rambunctious. Collaborators include Mason McAvoy, Clark Berman, Bay Fletcher, Aviva Bock, Chris Dahlke, Luther Case, Brannon Rovins, Thomas McCloskey, Jude Walters, Will Tober, Chris Kelly Dutile, Paul Giess, Jacy Farrow, and Ryan Donlin. Velvet Penny Bio: Velvet Penny is an art rock group based out of Los Angeles, spearheaded and fronted by Marlena. The project was first conceived as a solo endeavor, but upon the release of Marlena’s record, ‘All the Flowers’ a band formed at the end of 2022 and over the past four years, has become what it is now, a power trio sharing music that borrows from folk, jazz, and rock to create tapestries of dynamic performances that hold room for dichotomy; raw and refined, strong and vulnerable. On October 2nd the group is set to release their new 12″ vinyl record, ‘Carousel Dreams’ , a shadowy body of work coming out on Psylk Rd. Records. To support the release, the band is touring this fall from the South through the Midwest and over to the East Coast. Related Artists: PJ Harvey, Fiona Apple, Bjork, Spellling, Pink Floyd World Assembly Body Opera Bio: World Assembly Body Opera is the theatrically dynamic sonic sketch of a lost moment directed by Mason McAvoy. She is accompanied by Ricki Wiedenhoff, Koof Ibi, Timothy Hagen, and Asia Mieleszko.
