On Canvas
Over the summer, ANW presented Darcy James Argue's spectacular "steampunk" big band, Secret Society, at the International House. This performance was the band's first US appearance outside of New York and, thanks to WHYY's On Canvas program (which has also featured performances from Andrew Bird, Lionel Loueke and Extra Golden), we can relive the excitement. Thanks to all who came out to support that event. Watch the entire episode here.
