Heads up, Mendocino County!

Hummingbird Records and the Larry Spring Museum are presenting a very special evening with Eric Isaacson, one of the founders of the incredible record label/shop Mississippi Records in Portland Oregon.

This presentation will be held indoors at the Larry Spring Museum/Lost Coast Found at 7 pm on Saturday, Dec 14th, 225 Redwood Ave, Fort Bragg. $10 admission and limited seating! Get here early!

A People’s History of North American Music is a lecture/film/slideshow that attempts to tell the entire history of North American music in ninety minutes guiding you through this whirlwind presentation of archival film, sound clips, and images.

Subjects include:
Examples of industrialization devolving the human race to become dumber while other animals are getting smarter.
The insane early American Puritan’s visions of a utopian musicless society.
How The Church Of Scientology saved the record industry - A brief history of Mississippi Records and details about the many chips on their shoulders.
The dystopian world of Spotify and Al music.
Hopeful messages about the future.

“Overall, it’s the story of how the powers that be try to control music and people throughout history finding ways to work outside Puritans, corporations, and tech lords’ systems despite these social engineers’ best efforts. Don’t worry, it’s a fun telling of this tale with lots of great music, images, and wild stories.”
