DECONSTRUCTING THE WHITE ALBUM


JULY 25-26
DECONSTRUCTING THE WHITE ALBUM

Scott Taylor and Skyler Blake of Olympia band The Hard Way will perform acoustic classic songs from The Beatles 1/2 hour before each screening!

Released in 1968, the White Album’s thirty songs span almost every style of music from hard rock to country to chamber music to avant garde. Its recording took place during a remarkable year in Beatles history that included the death of Brian Epstein, the creation of Apple Corps, and a trip to India to study meditation. In this multimedia presentation film, Mr. Freiman transports his audience into Abbey Road Studio for a look at the revolutionary techniques used during the production of “Revolution,” “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” “Blackbird” and other songs from the White Album. It’s an educational journey into the creative process of The Beatles performances and recording sessions, allowing the audience to see and hear the evolution of these groundbreaking songs and understand their lasting influence on popular music.
Dir: Scott Freiman / 2017 / US / 90 min / Film

The Hard Way from Olympia, WA have been making music together since 2007. Fueled primarily by Scott Taylor’s manic, artfully crafted pop songs, The Hard Way play rock n’ roll with lots of tight vocal harmonies, soaring guitars and driving drums. THW features the talents of: Scott Taylor (lead vocals, guitar, keys), Dave Hyatt (drums, vocals), Luke Ogden (bass, vocals) and Skyler Blake (guitar, vocals). This band throws down unstoppable powerpop tunes that really stick in your head!!
