Experience an evening of expansive songwriting and genre-defying artistry as Nad Navillus and Chris Côté bring their unique visions to The Button Factory Stage.
Nad Navillus
The musical project of Chicago-based Dan Sullivan, Nad Navillus delivers a sound that is equal parts guitar- and vocal-driven, structurally diverse, and rich in emotional texture. Sullivan’s work spans multiple releases, including Show Your Face and Iron Night on Jagjaguwar, and the more recent Upper Constant. He was also a guitarist for the seminal indie band Songs: Ohia, contributing to their acclaimed album Magnolia Electric Co. Nad Navillus creates music that balances precision with unpredictability, offering a deeply immersive listening experience.
Chris Côté
A prolific composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist from Portsmouth, NH, Chris Côté has spent the past three decades exploring and expanding his sound across classical, theatrical, pop, and experimental genres. Best known as the creative force behind the long-running project Almanac Mountain, Côté has released multiple albums and EPs while becoming a trusted collaborator among Seacoast artists. His recent work with Tiger Saw, Guy Capecelatro III, and Jim Rioux showcases his versatility and sensitivity as a performer and arranger.
This show offers a rare chance to witness two artists at the top of their craft, each drawing from deep wells of experience to create something entirely fresh and resonant.
