FreshGrass Institute presents DAVÓNE TINES & THE TRUTH
Artist-in-Residence Concert
After a week-long creative residency at Studio 9, DAVÓNE TINES & THE TRUTH will share bits and pieces of developmental work rooted in themes of love, healing, generational trauma, and communal release, this work-in-progress showing reflects their process of expanding early ideas into musical themes, and structures for their new studio album called “Nature Boy” during their time in residence.

He has premiered works by Adams, Blanchard, and Aucoin, and premiered with the Philadelphia Orchestra, the New York and Los Angeles Philharmonic.
