Cellist and composer [Rob Knaggs](http://www.robknaggs.com/) may hail from Brisbane, Australia, but his real home is on the icy shores of northern Manitoba. Rob is a frequent visitor to Churchill, where his lifelong dream of performing his cinematic post-rock compositions for Arctic wildlife like belugas and polar bears can be fulfilled. Before Rob's next lengthy stay up north, he's playing one last Winnipeg show, [May 16 at the West End Cultural Centre](http://www.facebook.com/events/1499918810121015/) opening up for Tim Hecker.
