Council Gabriel Kahane & Pekka Kuusisto

Iconic Finnish Musician Pekka Kuusisto and Gabriel Kahane Form 'Council' and Unveil Intimate Music Collaboration

After nearly a decade of musical friendship, it seems only fitting that the cult American singer-songwriter Gabriel Kahane and iconic Finnish musician Pekka Kuusisto have formalized their collaboration under the moniker ‘Council.’ Now, they present an evening of intimate and sonically varied songs & chamber music, written during several writing retreats in North Karelia and Portland, Oregon.

Kahane & Kuusisto attempt to locate the universal in the personal, and vice versa. Here are stories of individual and collective grief: of nostalgia, adolescence, and memory play; of the joy, wonder, and perplexity of fatherhood in an era of global instability.
