CONJURING STRANGE AND BEAUTIFUL SOUND Roberto Carlos Lange, aka Helado Negro, produces bilingual music that is “a sonic landscape that reflects 21st-century Latin America.” (NPR) Fresh off a release on Sufjan Stevens’ Asthmatic Kitty label, Lange sets out on his new musical/visual project Island Universe Story, in development at MASS MoCA with eight musicians including Mikael Jorgensen of Wilco and members of the William Onyeabor Atomic Bomb Band and Marc Ribot’s band.

GLOBAL HIP-HOP THROWDOWN The sprawling Montréal hip-hop collective Nomadic Massive descends on MASS MoCA for a game-changing dance party. Claiming its hometown as “Montréal, Chili, Haiti, Brazil, France, Argentina, Saint Vincent, Barbados, France, and Algeria,” the group is a force to be reckoned with, and its live show is a multilingual eruption of old-school hip-hop with live instrumentation and a deeply global vibe.

“RAGGED, REAL AND RAW”

- ROLLING STONE

A trailblazer of alt-country, a protest singer of fiery commitment, a songwriter of towering ability—Steve Earle is an artist of expansive talents. He’s here, a sack full of Grammy Awards and his gravelly, impassioned voice in tow, for a solo show just before the release of Terraplane, his new album of swampy, southern stomp blues.

A CLASSIC (re)MADE AT MASS MoCA In 2015, Lucinda Childs, one of the most celebrated choreographers of the modern era, revives her seminal 1983 collaboration with composer John Adams and architect Frank Gehry. During an extended artistic residency, Childs remounts Available Light, which features an updated version of Gehry’s striking set. Three intimate, work-in-progress presentations showcase the reimagined work.

SOUND OF THE PAST, VOICE OF THE FUTURE Billie Holiday comparisons are coming thick and fast for throwback chanteuse Kat Edmonson. The Boston Globe called her 2012 release, Way Down Low, “one of the greatest vocal albums I’ve ever heard.” Her 2014 follow-up, The Big Picture, confirms it was no fluke: she is one of today’s most exciting and original singers, retro but completely of the moment, a dazzling talent with a voice that’s impossible to forget.

WILD IRISH As the front man of the legendary band Hothouse Flowers, the devastatingly charming singer-songwriter-raconteur-linguist Liam Ó Maonlaí has done as much as anyone to connect traditional Irish music with rock and roll. He took the 2014 FreshGrass festival by storm, singing half his solo set in Gaelic. He’s back, with some Hothouse bandmates in tow, for a very special St. Patrick’s Day show. Irish on tap.

“ANALOG + DIGITAL”

- PASTE MAGAZINE

From his days as a founding member of luminary art rockers The Books to his equally arresting and madcap work as a solo artist, the imagination of Nick Zammuto is boundless. He recently built a giant catapult in his Vermont backyard for the purpose of flinging computers and guitars. When he visits our concert stage with his eponymous ensemble, Zammuto, it’s hard to know for sure what will happen — but it’s safe to say that you should show up.

LA MUSICA DI INFERNO The propulsive quartet Sex Mob, which combines mind-blowing jazz chops with a highly developed sense of wit and mischief, performs its brand new original score to this seminal work of the Italian silent era. The great Bartolomeo Pagano stars as Maciste, a Herculean strongman whose physical prowess and matching virtue are tested when the Devil and his minions capture him and drag him to hell. The film was cited by Fellini as one that inspired him to lead a life in cinema.

THE J.D. SALINGER OF INDIE ROCK The return of Jeff Mangum and Neutral Milk Hotel—who influenced a generation of songwriters with a string of records in the ‘90s, culminating with In the Aeroplane Over the Sea—is one of the most welcome re-births in the history of indie music. Mangum was here in 2013 in what was one of his first shows in over a decade. This time he’s back with the whole band.

JIM SHAW

ENTERTAINING DOUBTS Fallen heroes, collapsed economies, politics, sin, and doomsday predictions —Jim Shaw’s work mines the essentials of American cultural detritus. Large-scale paintings on theatrical scrim, video, sculpture, and a new commission—works that feature characters such as Barbara Bush, 20th-century religious prophet Aleister Crowley, and Dan Quayle—remind us that the end is near and that reality is more absurd than plausible.

FANG LIJUN A fierce observer of contemporary culture and politics, Fang Lijun was a founding protagonist of the pivotal Cynical Realist movement in post-Tiananmen China.

Fang’s first major solo exhibition in the U.S., the show features a vast suite of work spanning nearly four decades—from resplendent, billboard-sized paintings, to rarely-seen ink drawings, to 20’ high woodcuts and a new ensemble of topographical sculpture rendered in transparent porcelain.

MASS MoCA’s signature football field-sized Building 5 will be dramatically reconfigured to accommodate this remarkable range of work.
