About William Hooker
A native of New Britain, Connecticut, Hooker has an extensive and far-reaching career as a musician. He has strong roots and training in jazz, but has collaborated with such musicians as Sonic Youth’s Lee Renaldo and Thurston Moore, Alan Licht, and DJ Olive, to name a few.
As critic Ty Cumbie suggests, "Hooker drives the music like a demonic charioteer, delivering potent, ferocious percussive tirades that, if anything, challenge the musicians to keep up. In building his music, he plays the roles of architect, engineer, and construction crew member."
Tickets are on sale at the door, starting at 6 PM on the day of the performance.
