4:00 p.m.
Beall Concert Hall

Grant Zubritsky is a musician, music director, and producer that splits time between Los Angeles, CA and Vancouver, BC.  While his primary instrument is bass, Grant doubles on piano & keyboards, saxophone, and guitar.  As an instrumentalist, he has performed or recorded with a variety of internationally recognized artists including Mitski, Chet Faker, Dua Lipa, Tegan & Sara, Nina Persson (of The Cardigans), Maggie Rogers, Bebe Rexha, and Poolside.  Touring and performing have taken Grant to 35 countries on 5 continents as well as American TV performances on Saturday Night Live, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Late Night with Seth Meyers, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and The Late Late Show with James Cordon.  He has performed at such iconic venues around the world as Wembley Stadium (London, UK), Radio City Music Hall (NYC), Red Rocks Amphitheatre (Colorado), and The Bataclan (Paris, France) as well as music festivals like Lollapalooza (USA, Germany, Sweden), Glastonbury (UK), Bonnaroo (Tennessee), Primavera (South America), Austin City Limits (Texas), Szieget (Hungary), Corona Capitale (CDMX & Guadalajara), and Montreal Jazz Fest (Quebec).

As an extension of touring and performing, Grant moved into Music Directing performances, tv shows, and tours in 2014.  He has worked with some of the same artists as their music director (Maggie Rogers, Tegan & Sara), and additionally worked with artists such as K Flay, Brittany Howard (Alabama Shakes), Louis the Child, and Maude Latour.  Some recent Music Direction highlights have been Tegan & Sara’s career spanning performance at Danforth Music Hall in Toronto for CBC (June 2023), a special TedX dance remix performance from K Flay (October 2023), and Brittany Howard’s televised performances in 2024 (The Tonight Show, Austin City Limits, & The Late Show with Stephen Colbert).  His work as a music director pulls on his experience as a seasoned touring musician, while integrating his work as an arranger, producer, and programmer.

In the studio, Grant works as a session player, producer, and composer, playing on albums for other artists, composing music for podcasts and commercials, and writing, producing, and releasing his own music under his own name as well as the moniker GZGZ.  He has worked on upwards of 50 commercial releases, often contributing to the engineering and production as well as the playing.  During the covid pandemic, Grant played saxophone on Chet Faker’s album ‘Hotel Surrender’ as well as an EP from the same artist, Nick Murphy, titled ‘Cassette 2.’  In 2024, Grant took on more production work with current collaborations coming soon.

Erb Memorial Union (EMU) Amphitheater

The Women’s Center is beyond excited to invite you to join *in-person* at our annual Take Back the Night Rally, March and Speak-Out Against Sexual and Domestic Violence.

 

When: Take Back the Night is on Thursday, April 25th, 2024 starting with the Rally at 6:00pm followed by the March at 7:00pm and Student-Led Speak-Out at 8pm.

Where: Rally begins in the EMU Amphitheater at 13th and University St. followed by an approximately 2.5 mile March from the UO Campus through the streets of Eugene and back to UO Campus in the EMU Diamond Lake Room where the Student-Led Speak Out is held.

Who: The UO Women’s Center in collaboration with the UO Campus Community (UO Muxeres, UO Duck Rides, UO Green and Yellow Garter Band and more).

Thursday, April 25th, 2024 marks the 46th annual Take Back the Night Rally, March and Speak-Out Against Sexual and Domestic Violence event for the University of Oregon Campus Community. Take Back the Night is a yearly international protest founded in 1976 which seeks to raise awareness about the realities of Sexual and Domestic Violence on campus and in the community, both for Survivors of Sexual and Domestic Violence and those who want to support and bear witness in solidarity. Take Back the Night is a Survivor-Centered event that begins with a Rally in the EMU Amphitheater, continues as a March through the streets of Eugene to symbolize reclaiming people’s safety on public streets at night, and ends with a Student-Led Speak-Out on campus during which Survivors can share personal stories of how Sexual and Domestic Violence has impacted their lives.

The Rally will feature UO Student Speakers from diverse intersecting identities and lived experiences, including the Native American Community, Latine Community, LGBTQIA2S+ Community, International Community, Disabled Community, a Child Abuse Prevention Advocacy Organization and more.

Our theme for this year’s event is addressing the DUALITY that Survivors can hold on their path to healing - throughout both their radical joy & rightful rage - as they ultimately reclaim their power. As well, we will continue to center marginalized communities too often left out of essential dialogue about Sexual and Domestic Violence - despite being disproportionately impacted by these systems of oppression. As always, the Women’s Center is committed to providing this essential event to support Survivors, educate the community and prevent future harm.

ASL Interpretation will be provided at the Rally. This event is wheelchair accessible and will have transportation available during the March and back to Student-Led Speak-Out. We ask that no UO Professional Staff or Media be present during the Student Led Speak-Out portion of the event to provide a sacred space for students to have dialogue circles of peer-to-peer support. Event will take place **rain or shine** (rain is currently forecast) and is free and open to the public. We support and believe survivors in ALL WEATHER! Masks are not required but highly encouraged. Questions regarding Take Back the Night should be directed to Fatima Roohi Pervaiz or Maggie Bertrand at the UO Women’s Center. Contact:

UO Women’s Center Director, Fatima Roohi Pervaiz fpervaiz@uoregon.edu
