BLOOD RIVER‒Music & Musings with Craig Childs & Greg Istock was a brilliant evening of improvisations between noted naturalist author Craig Childs and musician Greg Istock, riffing on ideas of flow and change.

Craig Childs has published more than a dozen critically acclaimed books, including “Tracing Time,” “Stone Desert,” “Virga & Bone,” and more. He will speak about the rock art of the Colorado Plateau and the wonders of a winter in Canyonlands in his newest books.

Greg Istock provided a hypnotic musical interpretation that spoke to the places and experiences in Craig's writing. Greg’s recent work, composing and performing with 3hattrio, focused on interpreting America’s Southwest deserts: http://www.3hattrio.com/

This event was presented as part of a Canyon Community Conversations series and sponsored by the Zion Canyon Mesa,  Zion National Park Forever Project, and Torrey House Press.
