Outliers
Sybarite5 is always on the lookout for new tunes and composers that speak with a unique and relevant voice. Outliers is a celebration of works written for us by our favorite composers and friends we’ve met traveling the world performing the music we love. Sybarite5 plays the music of Mike Block, Kenji Bunch, Shawn Conley, Michael Gilbertson, Jessica Meyer, Marc Mellits, Brandon Ridenour, Steven Snowden, Josef Suk, and Aleksandra Vrebalov paired with the group’s favorite works of Armenian folk music, Piazzolla, and Radiohead.
