sinonó: como sombra (like a shadow) at Gridley Chapel

Wassaic Project is thrilled to welcome our first musical act of the season, sinonó, at the Gridley Chapel on July 11, 2026.
Doors open at 7PM
Performance starts at 7:30 PM
sinonó will perform como sombra (like a shadow).

Explosive and wistful, sinonó draws on latin american folk, free improvisation and chamber music to create a space of crackling aliveness. Described as “middle-of-the-night music” (Dada Strain), the trio features vocalist and composer isabel crespo pardo, cellist Lester St. Louis, and bassist Henry Fraser. Together, they perform crespo's "poemsongs" — pieces built around metaphor and improvisation that shift in performance, but always remain tied to poetry and breath. sinonó has performed at venues such as Roulette Intermedium, The DiMenna Center, and Lincoln Center Atrium, and they released their debut album la espalda y su punto radiante (Subtext Recordings) in 2024. They are currently working on their sophomore album, recorded at Pioneer Works (Brooklyn, NY).
