Pianist, vibraphonist, and composer Brittany Anjou presents solo piano and vocal interpretations of the music of The Shaggs, the legendary outsider rock band formed by sisters Dot, Betty, and Helen Wiggin in the late 1960s.
Anjou has worked closely with original Shaggs members Dot and Betty Wiggin recording previously unreleased Shaggs songs, accompanying them on tour, and appears in the documentary We Are The Shaggs, directed by Ken Kwapis, which premiered at SXSW in 2026. She also composed original music for the documentary’s score.
For this special solo performance, Anjou attempts to encapsulate the ethos of The Shaggs’ singular musical universe through transcriptions from the original album, for piano and voice.
