Jason Birnstihl

Jason Birnstihl takes the stage at Jewell on Capitol for the debut of Strike. Omaha listeners may know him from The 9s, but this event centers on his solo work and the stories behind the new album.

The publicly listed program includes an opening set followed by a full-band performance, giving the album-release format room to move from introduction into a larger live sound. The material is described as pulling inspiration from everyday and offbeat sources alike: relationships, relatives and rodents.

For fans of Omaha music, Jason Birnstihl at Jewell on Capitol is a chance to hear Strike presented in the kind of intimate venue built for close-up listening. The show highlights a local musician stepping outside a known band identity and into a solo project with its own point of view.
