THE GR AMMY FOUNDATION, Aspen Music Festival and School, and Aspen Peak magazine hosted a two-part event featuring indie-pop musician Kishi Bashi. The classically trained violinist—who has played major festivals such as SXSW and Austin City Limits, and has gone on an extensive US tour—performed a two-hour set at Belly Up Aspen. There, he blended violin, electronics, and stylistic inf luences from multiple cultures and pop-music eras to create a unique sound. Immediately following the show, attendees headed to the afterparty hosted by the Sky Hotel, where guests sipped drinks poolside before a question-and- answer session with Kishi Bashi and his band.
