Filmic Portraiture

Bringing the venue to you through filmic portraiture both archived & live. 

The idea of the "one take" is held in high regards where an artist is not enhanced with editing - the goal with this body of work is to make portraits.

Sonic signatures are welcomed in the often live sound style of recording on location.

 New films will appear organically about every 4-6 weeks adding to over 100 episodes in this archive.

Live events are realized periodically throughout the year as pop ups combining :  

Music • Craft Food & Drink • Circus Arts • Varieté

Thank you to MASS MoCA  , the  FreshGrass Festival, the Library of Congress FolkLife Division created by Alan Lomax,  Ear Trumpet Labs, Bolex Digital, Nikon,  Apple, Sennhieser & Universal Audio , for the inspiration and in the field reliable tools that shape the sound & feel of this work.

This body of work is not funded by any of the above mentioned institutions or companies and is a labor of love.

Shake off the Nor’ Easters tonight FOG Bar ! An Electro-Acoustic set followed by Late Night Rhythm & beats by Eastern Puma & Mosart212! Salt Stage Live is thrilled to welcome acclaimed Portland-based beat maker Mosart 212 and Bill Giordano’s latest wildcrafted electroacoustic project Eastern Puma to the new and improved stage at FOG Bar & Cafe at 328 Main St, Rockland. The event is celebratory return after FOG’s winter break and will take place Saturday March 17th- St Patrick's Day. There will be sets from each artist and they will join each other for a not-to-be-missed 3rd set. The music will start at 8:30 and you'll hear everything from poignant songcraft, to post-modern beat styled symphonies, to cut-the-rug electronic dance gooves. Come early, come late, come for the while night but don't miss this rare treat! Enter through the Oak St. door. Tickets are limited and are currently on sale for $10! For Ticket Information please visit www.saltstage.com/live/ Mosart212 (aka Maria JoséButter, aka Boston Blackie) is a prolific creator of bad-ass funky symphonies for the post-modern era. While he’s a DJ’s DJ, he’s also so much more: composer, rabblerouser, crate-digger, beatsmith, Baseball Fury, teacher, curator, writer, bargain-hunter, philosopher, boogaloo shrimp, hep cat, and all-around artiste. Mosart212 will keep you front and center, tapping on that music stand and waving his conductor’s baton and his wild-ass hair. Listen Here: http://brooklynradio.com/symphony-sessions-age-of-prosperity/ Eastern Puma is the electro/acoustic musical project of Bill Giordano. Long time Maine songwriter, and provocateur in Maine arts and agriculture world, Giordano has been performing throughout the Northeast under his folk moniker William Joseph Jiordan. He writes for the cultural coming of age in America - for an elusive yet omnipresent language of emotional intelligence. Eastern Puma is his long-in-the-works project that combines his love of songcraft and composing with rhythms, beats and dance music. Listen Here: https://soundcloud.com/billgiordano
