Best Video Film & Cultural Center presents a triple bill matinee show on Sun., Sept. 6 with two acts from Brooklyn, NY—Sotto Voce and Cousin Oven—and Connecticut's Calendula. The cover is $10 and the show starts at 4 PM.

Sotto Voce has been the moniker for Pittsburgh native Ryan Gabos's homespun musical project since 2011. Recording nearly every note in whatever small space he calls his bedroom at any given time, he catalogues his personal brand of songcraft built on the result of his influences, including Jim O'Rourke, The Sea and Cake, Deerhoof, and Joan of Arc. Sotto Voce operates live as a band with bassist Justin Gonzales and drummer Ryan Hopper. Of latest album—2026's The Sound of Trying—Pop Matters says it "suggests a sort of Todd Rundgren in Brooklyn vibe, marrying the lo-fi, DIY aesthetics of bedroom pop with a musical mind that never seems to run out of good ideas."

Cousin Oven is the Brooklyn-based rock band led by frontman, Owen Bologna. A master of personification, Owen skillfully weaves emotional honesty, clever prose, and rhythmic drive into a consistently beautiful musical product. Cousin Oven songs are sweet and subtle, rewarding you for the attention you pay to them with genuine warmth.

Calendula is the musical project of Abigail Golec, a singer-songwriter based in Stafford Springs, Connecticut. Their nostalgia for past homes, daydreamed futures, and yearning for loved-ones fuels their folk-inspired melodies. Their self-titled album releases on June 21st, 2026.
