Award-winning cellist Joshua McClain returns to 301 Chadbourne Way!

Guided by the voice of the cello, McClain's rock cello Odyssey, Coming Home, takes audiences on a supernatural, mythological voyage; a descent into the Underworld and back again, bearing the fruits of rebirth.

Based out of Oakland, CA Joshua is best known for his unbridled solo cello performances which, using a looping pedal and effects processor, create intense, otherworldly soundscapes. His live show is passionate, astonishing, and simply transformative.

Regarded as one of the top artists in the San Francisco Bay Area, McClain was voted Musician of the Year in San Francisco at the Raw Artist RAWAwards showcase in 2013. He has shared the stage with Thievery Corporation, Aj Croce, Over the Rhine, Blame Sally, Gordi, Dagmar, and others.

Joshua's soundscapes are in the same vein as great filmic soundtracks - his playing is in the style of Sigur Ros, Zoe Keating, Andrew Bird, Mogwai, Kronos Quartet, and Dirty Three to name a few.

Joshua has toured and performed extensively in North America as well as Germany, France, Japan, West Africa, and Argentina.
