OneBeat’s show at Bombyx
I had the fun opportunity to photograph and document OneBeat’s show in Northampton, this month.
OneBeat is the gathering place for the musical leaders of the 21st century – an incubator for music-based social entrepreneurship, where innovative musicians from around the world launch collaborative projects designed to make a positive impact on local and global communities.
Launched in 2012, OneBeat began as an annual U.S-based residency and tour program that brings early-career musicians together from around the globe to collaboratively write, produce and perform original music, and develop strategies for arts-based civic and social engagement. Over the past incredible 10+ years, we have seen this program grow from one annual U.S.-based residency and tour program to a constellation of year-round programming, including residencies & tours in countries around the world, a virtual residency, an artist-industry incubation program, a podcast, a development and training institute, and a schools curriculum.
Created by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and designed and produced by the NYC-based arts organization Found Sound Nation, OneBeat has grown into a constellation of programs in production around the globe.
