Concert Board is proud to present Aesop Rock with Rob Sonic and DJ Big Wiz on April 10 at 7:30 p.m. in the Wendy Williamson Auditorium.



Aesop Rock is a hip-hop artist and producer who rose to the forefront of alternative hip-hop, releasing critically acclaimed albums on the Definitive Jux record label. Aesop will hit the stage with label mate Rob Sonic, and DJ Big Wiz to deliver his unique style of ethereal stutter-funk hip-hop storytelling live in Anchorage. His last album None Shall Pass showcases his surreal stream-of-thought coupled with complex production that propels him ahead of his peers with an album that will be followed for years to come.



"Aesop Rock is indie rap's surrealist, a spewer and sneerer given to oblique code and artfully jumbled syntax. His voice is a bassy, agile instrument that rhymes "evil" gracefully with "amoeba." -BLENDER



"Even among the hip-hop heavies who record for his local label, Def Jux, rapper Aesop Rock manages to stand out thanks to a vulnerable storytelling style that's all too rare among the genre's tough guys." - NEW YORK MAGAZINE
