David Greenberger & the Huckleberries perform Universal Preservation
Join us for an exclusive event with David Greenberger and The Huckleberries. Commissioned specifically for you, “Universal Preservation” is a showcase of the magic that lies in the art of conversation. With a specialty in sparking lively and spontaneous dialogue with all he meets, Greenberger’s latest artistic venture is a playground of conversation filled with knock-knock jokes, not-so-rhetorical questions and observations about the world akin to that of a child’s imagination and wonder.
You will not be hearing this well-seasoned musician sing throughout “Universal Preservation.” Instead, you will be transported from character to character, guided by Greenberger’s vivid storytelling abilities. Greenberger defies the bounds of genre, dipping a toe into varying styles that match the vast array of conversation he curates in his musical vignettes. Each track utilizes a different set of instruments to accurately capture a musical reflection of the words being spoken. A bouncy, sunny keyboard tune accompanies one’s description of the odd jobs they went to day to day as a teen. A blast of a trumpet accessorizes the description of a beautiful lady from way back when.
Greenberger’s approach to interviewing is a well-rehearsed and unique dance with each conversation partner. He is not an interviewer, but rather a conversationalist who turns every exchange into a one-of-a-kind event. The result? An enchanting, vivid tale every time, making each conversation as distinctive as each of his conversation partners and allowing the listener to walk in the shoes of each character.
