Music Near the Gardens: Anjimile & Speed Stick

The penultimate concert in the Music Near the Gardens series kicks off with Durham-based artist Anjimile. Their introspective and driving indie-folk music weaves intricate guitar work with lyrical storytelling that explores identity, spirituality, and transformation. Anjimile’s sound is both intimate and expansive – an unforgettable live music experience.

Then, percussive powerhouse group Speed Stick takes the stage with their rhythmic experimentation with bold, genre-defying instrumentation. Their music is both propulsive and hypnotic, and sure to keep you on your toes – literally and figuratively.

Free event; no tickets required.
