Welcome to Episode 3 of Radio Resistance: Tennessee Experimental! This episode features the music and story of Joshua Dent, a Nashville-based cellist, composer, and member of experimental new music ensemble, chatterbird. In this hour, Joshua performs an original solo cello composition “Vulnerable / Vicious” live in the studio, and shares their story about living and creating in Tennessee when Trans/Queer rights are under attack. The vision and inspiration behind Dent’s work stems from a hope to both give and receive perspectives that instill compassion for fellow human beings.
