On Tuesday, November 8 a new president will be elected. Today HeadCount, a non-partisan voter registration organization, detailed an inventive, first-of-its-kind concert event to be held as results come in at Brooklyn Bowl in New York City.

“Soundtrack To History,” presented by Magic Hat Brewing Company, will feature Everyone Orchestra musically interpreting the election results in real time. As per a statement announcing the event, “They’ll use the election returns and the mood of the crowd as a muse for improvisation, creating a night of truly historic music unlike any other election event in the country.”

Everyone Orchestra conductor Matt Butler will lead an impressive lineup featuring Steve Kimock, members of the Disco Biscuits (Marc Brownstein and Aron Magner), moe. (Vinnie Amico), Snarky Puppy (Jay Jennings and Chris Bullock), Big Gigantic (Jeremy Salken), Trey Anastasio Band (Natalie Cressman) and Jans Ingber (formerly of The Motet). Additional special guests are expected to be revealed soon.

“We’re giving fans a chance to have a shared musical experience on a night they may remember the rest of their lives,” said HeadCount founder and co-chair Marc Brownstein. “We’ve always wanted to do something like this and Everyone Orchestra is a perfect musical outlet to make it happen.” Soundtrack To History is expected to start at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, November 8. GA, VIP and Benefactor tickets go on sale this Friday, October 14 at 10 a.m. ET via the venue’s website.
