SUMMARY:Alicia Witt - Album Release Show
DESCRIPTION:Ticket prices on our website reflect all-in pricing for purchases made online or by phone.  This means the price you see includes the ticket price plus MUTO’s ticket processing fee. Tickets may be purchased with no included fees in person at The Ark during box office hours. \nTickets purchased for the November 1\, 2026 date are valid for this performance. \nBetween Heaven and Earth\, the haunting and deeply personal new album from Alicia Witt\, arrives August 28 via Thirty Tigers. Recorded live in New York City with producer Joe Henry and a band assembled specifically for the project\, the album exists in a space suspended between transcendence and intimacy\, channeling what Witt describes as “eternal unconditional love” and “the place suspended between heaven and earth.” \nThe album was profoundly shaped by the influence and memory of David Lynch\, whose impact on Witt stretches back to her first film role as Alia in Dune at age seven. “I can’t imagine who I would be without David Lynch\,” Witt reflects. “He is weaved throughout the fabric of my life.” Throughout Between Heaven and Earth\, Witt explores what she learned from Lynch “regarding love. The eternal nature of it\, the idea that only love is real.” She describes his presence as palpable throughout the making of the record: “David was with us every day in the studio. All six of us in the band felt his presence.” \nWhile widely recognized for her acclaimed acting career spanning film\, television\, and stage\, music has remained a constant throughline in Witt’s life. A classically trained pianist who supported herself as a musician when she first moved to Los Angeles\, Witt has long integrated music into her creative identity\, both through her own songwriting and in many of the roles she has portrayed onscreen. She’s released multiple full-length albums\, including Revisionary History (2015)\, The Conduit (2021)\, and I Think I’m Spending Christmas With You (2024). Between Heaven and Earth represents the latest chapter in that ongoing musical journey. \nFor Witt\, Between Heaven and Earth is ultimately about connection — to spirit\, to memory\, to other people\, and to something larger than ourselves. “Too often\, it seems to me\, people imagine love in a vacuum\,” she explains. “I know love to be eternal and unconditional.” The result is an album rooted not in bitterness or regret\, but in surrender\, gratitude\, wonder\, and the belief that “only love can change minds and hearts.” \n“What all of these songs have in common is that there is no bitterness\, no angst\, no revenge\, nothing resembling hatred or regret\,” Witt says. “This is my offering. May it bring you exactly where you need it to bring you.” \nPresave the album now! \nALICIA WITT MEET & GREET VIP RECEPTION \nPackage includes:\nOne GA ticket to the show\nPre-show Meet & Greet with Alicia\nAutographs (Bring your own up to 5 items\, or purchase items at the Merch table)\nLimited availability

SUMMARY:Hazlett
DESCRIPTION:Ticket prices on our website reflect all-in pricing for purchases made online or by phone.  This means the price you see includes the ticket price plus MUTO’s ticket processing fee. Tickets may be purchased with no included fees in person at The Ark during box office hours. \nHazlett is back and bringing his band to town for ‘The Comeback Tour’ this coming spring. \nAfter abrupt hiatus due to vocal surgery he is on the mend and cleared to hit the road in the new year. Bringing the feels from past albums and some unreleased music to those that have tickets for the evening. Tickets purchased for the original date will be valid for tonight’s show. \nSweden-based\, Australian-born Hazlett returns to the road following the success of his latest full-length album\, “last night you said you missed me”.  Hazlett divulges: “When I started this whole thing I wanted anyone who starts to listen to feel like they’re part of this whole thing with me—growing and finding ourselves along the way.” Over the past several years\, Hazlett and his unique brand of Indie Folk have quietly built a devoted following through his heartfelt songwriting and captivating live performances. Whether it’s an intimate club\, historic theatre\, or on festival stages around the world\, his ability to create genuine connection with audiences continues to set him apart. From lush acoustic textures to stripped-back ballads\, anchored by songs like “doing my best”\, “Blame The Moon” and “queen of the season\, each piece unfolds like a page from a well-worn journal\, exploring themes of self-preservation\, distance\, yearning\, and quiet hope. For the restless hearts\, the gentle souls\, and the dreamers\, the live show and albums it gravitates around are both a confession and a cathartic hug. It reminds us that home is not always a place. Sometimes\, it’s a song that stays a while.
