Artichoke Music: Alicia Viani Trio

Some recent tunes are part of this set.

On July 24, 2024, the Alicia Viani Trio, consisting of Mark Karwan (b), Pete Kartsounes (g), and Alicia, were headliners at Artichoke Music, a small music café in Portland. All three musicians contributed vocals throughout the show.

Opening for Alicia was Jasper Diem, an extremely talented local duo. The guitarist, Steve Eggers, was a bandmate of Alicia’s in the Oh Bruni days. Click the group photo (below) to view gallery of pix lifted from a video of the show.
