Omaha Creative Institute Upcoming Showcase: Songs of Nation

As part of the Omaha Creative Institute’s (www.omahacreativeinstitute.org) ongoing commitment to support local artists by providing grant, exhibition, and professional development opportunities, they will be showcasing the work of their Spring 2018 Working Parent Artist Grant recipient, Topher Booth, on April 6 at 7 p.m. This event is free and open to the public. Space is limited and will be granted on a first come, first served basis.

Topher and his band, Nation, are gearing up to release their first full-length album in the summer of 2018. A blend of folk, Americana blues, and infectious pop hooks, their music finds roots in familiar traditions while extending its reach to new audiences. In anticipation of Nation’s upcoming album release, Topher will be performing an intimate, acoustic set at Omaha Creative Institute (1419 S. 13th Street, Suite 103). Audience members will gain insight into Topher’s process as he talks about songwriting and the drive to make music. A new music video for a track off of Nation’s forthcoming album will also be screened for the very first time.
