Gyan Riley at Barbès (IN PERSON and Live Streams)
Wed., April 28, 7PM and 9PM EDT

Live gigs continue their cautious return in New York, as the Brooklyn club Barbès continues its Dirty Dozen series – intimate live shows for an audience of twelve. On Wed., April 28, it’s with Brooklyn-based guitarist, composer, and collaborator Gyan Riley. If you saw the Ken Burns documentary Hemingway, you’ve heard Gyan’s guitar music; he’s also played with his father, the minimalist legend Terry Riley. Back in June 2020, early on in the pandemic, Gyan had put out a record called Shelter In Space. Gyan Riley does a solo set tonight at Barbès for a very small live audience, and it’ll be streaming as well.
