SUMMARY:Martin Sexton
DESCRIPTION:Singer-songwriter Martin Sexton is like an ultra-active antenna\, adventuring through the static to grab a clear signal. When he dials in on one station\, he then quickly shifts to the next one. This everchanging attention span drives his family crazy\, but it’s ingrained in Martin\, dating back to his childhood when he would tear through television primetime programming. This ability to hone in on little defining moments suits Martin as a songwriter as evident by his latest EP\, 2020 Vision. This is Martin’s first release in 6 years\, and it is a poetically emotive and an elegantly evocative pandemic scrapbook. “In one song\, I’m building a treehouse with my son. In another song\, I’m crossing America and seeing the beauty in people rising through adversity and loving each other\,” Martin details. The recordings were tracked virtually during lockdown and produced by three-time Grammy-nominee John Alagia\, best known for producing John Mayer’s breakout album\, Room For Squares. Mayer\, who has always championed Martin as a foundational influence\, makes a special guitar solo cameo on one of the EP’s singles\, “Calling on America.” This 4-song collection will be available on the digital platforms\, and also issued as a handsomely-packaged vinyl release. Martin’s ever-shifting focus also manifests itself in his freewheeling musicality. He nurtured a critically-acclaimed trademark aesthetic through embracing soul\, folk\, blues\, rock\, pop\, and sweet balladry. His last album\, 2015’s Mixtape of the Open Road\, garnered raves from the Wall Street Journal\, Billboard\, Folk Alley/NPR Music\, and Relix Magazine. One constant in Martin’s life and his music is celebrating America. His 1996 Black Sheep album featured a rendition of “America The Beautiful\,” and his major-label debut was simply called The American. Also\, Martin getting his start in music through leaving his upstate New York hometown with seventy-five bucks and a Stratocaster to chase his aspirations brims with anthemic American Dream overtones. 2020 Vision continues this American story. \n“I see America as flawed\, but not irredeemable. I love that we have community leaders\, politicians\, actors\, and artists from all backgrounds speaking up\, raising their voices\, and becoming the heroes of today\,” Martin says. “My faith is renewed to see the injustices of the world now beginning to be met with accountability. I remain hopeful and optimistic.” 2020 Vision snapshots moment of clarity during the pandemic and beyond. The EP’s leadoff single\, “Hold On\,” is one of those sun-shining-through-the-rain songs. It brims with soul guitar fixings\, punchy horns\, and a touching narrative of the simple pleasures of spending time with loved ones. “The silver lining in the pandemic was more facetime with my family. We cut each other’s hair\, we biked\, and I got around to finally building that treehouse with my son\,” Martin recalls. “We finished building it on a sunny summer day\, and I grabbed my old Gibson and sat down inside the new fort and this tune presented itself to me.” \nThe EP’s second single\, “Calling On America\,” follows in the grand tradition of tender R&B cultural commentary epitomized by soul poets like Curtis Mayfield’s and Marvin Gaye. It’s a scene-setting song panning through visual vignettes of love and harmony while also contemplating division. “I see too much division and hate projected on the airwaves\,” Martin shares. “Because of what I do\, I travel and meet folks in the world\, and although it’s far less common than it should be\, I find it encouraging to see people of all walks of life getting along. I believe solidarity through music is a very powerful thing and I’ve always strived to advocate that through my songs and my shows.” The song’s purposeful messaging goes down smooth with folksy acoustic guitar\, gospel-tinged organ playing\, pining pedal steel\, and Martin’s trademark honeyed vocals. “Calling On America” is further enhanced by a John Mayer guitar solo\, a lyrical but fleet-fingered statement that hits that sweet spot between blues and country. The EP is rounded out by the impressionistic folk song\, “Riding Through The Rain\,” and the James Taylor-esque\, “Penny from the Land of Plenty\,” a powerful and hopeful statement on the opioid epidemic. \nUp next\, the road is calling Martin as tour dates are being booked in this post-vaccine chapter. 2020 Vision will always have its lessons and remain in Martin’s sight\, even as the miles out on the road put pandemic life in the rearview mirror. One of those lessons is the power of togetherness. Martin says: “My mission statement for the past 15 years has been unity through music\, and I am committed to sharing peace and harmony through my songs.”

SUMMARY:Martha Redbone Roots Project
DESCRIPTION:Presented as a dramatic musical work with a cast of eight actors/musicians\, BONE HILL: THE CONCERT is an interdisciplinary theater work inspired by Martha Redbone’s family lineage in the Appalachian Mountains. An epic story of one woman’s return to her homeland on Black Mountain and the coal mines of Harlan County\, KY where her family have dwelled for centuries. Martha Redbone is a Native & African-American vocalist/songwriter/composer/educator. She is known for her unique gumbo of folk\, blues and gospel from her childhood in Harlan County\, Kentucky\, infused with the eclectic grit of pre-gentrified Brooklyn.

With songs and storytelling that share her life experience as a Native and Black woman and mother in the new millennium\, Redbone gives voice to issues of social justice\, bridging traditions from past to present\, connecting cultures\, and celebrating the human spirit. \n \nARTIST LINKS\nwebsite | facebook | instagram | youtube \n \n\n \nMARTHA REDBONE ROOTS PROJECT \nPERFORMING BONE HILL\nWednesday\, February 9\, 2022\nDoors: 7 PM | Showtime: 8 PM \nReserved Seating: $35 – $50 \nGet Tickets \n \n\n \n*NEW* Choose Your Own Ticket Packages.\nClick a link below and you will be directed to our ticketing platform to make your show selection.\nShows must be purchased from these pages for the discount to be applied.\nPick 3\, SAVE 5% or Pick 5\, SAVE 10%! \n \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Animal Liberation Orchestra (ALO)
DESCRIPTION:ALO is a lot of things. Put simply\, it’s a rock band\, a family\, an artistic outlet\, a community\, a business. But that only scratches the surface of this 3O-year musical vision-quest. ALO is an adventure\, it’s a Spring break road trip to Colorado\, it’s an all-night drive from Salt Lake City to San Jose. It’s the comfort of hanging out with life-long friends\, of relaxing on a couch and finding treasures hidden in its cushions. It’s a coffee table full of amazing books on art\, philosophy and music. It feels old and new\, fresh and classic. It holds tension and dreams and possibility in its folds. It hopes to unveil something magical\, something unheard of\, something the world needs. It smells of super burritos and vans full of lemons\, old bongs and epic hikes. It’s the sound of growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area. It’s a sound of northern California\, with sprinkles of Santa Barbara and Augusta\, Georgia. It was born of childhood friendships\, of shared destinies\, of inside jokes and of a desire to make people happy. It’s not for everyone\, although it tries to be. It wants you to love and share in its vision. It’s long and meandering\, then suddenly sharp\, abrupt! It’s feral and clever\, and it means you no harm. It’s love and freedom\, collected and catalogued\, then released back into the wilds from whence it came\, over and over again. It’s an orchestrated liberation of our animal soul. \n \nZACH GILL / KEYS\, VOCALS \nDAN “LEBO” LEBOWITZ / GUITARS\, VOCALS \nSTEVE ADAMS / BASS\, VOCALS \nEZRA LIPP / DRUMS\, VOCALS \n

SUMMARY:Dead Winter Carpenters
DESCRIPTION:Hailing from North Lake Tahoe\, CA\, americana/roots rock band Dead Winter Carpenters has built a reputation for pouring their heart and soul into each performance. Over the past decade\,\nthe band has worked hard to position themselves\, wrote Portland Metronome\, “at the forefront of a youthful generation trying to redefine what string music is and what it can do.” That progressive nature shines through loud and clear on the band’s latest release “Sinners ‘n’ Freaks” which debuted on April 24th\, 2020. The 5-song EP is DWC’s fifth studio effort and coincided with the band’s 10th anniversary. The release is a celebration of the hard roads previously traveled and the road that lies ahead. Recorded in January 2020 at Baxter’s Ranch in Auburn\, CA\, the band found a masterful ally with a keen ear and sensibility in studio owner/engineer Matt Baxter. Born of an organic\, roots based approach\, Sinners ‘n’ Freaks rings true to the Sierra Nevada foothills. \nThe band’s fourth studio project\, Washoe\, is a 12-song collection of originals recorded in Reno’s Sierra Sonics Studio (Ozzy Ozbourne\, Eminem\, Dr. Dre\, Collective Soul) and co-produced by Dead Winter Carpenters and Zachary Girdis. The band’s previous albums include the group’s 2010 self-titled debut\, Ain’t It Strange (2012)\, and the much-acclaimed Dirt Nap (2014). They also released a single “Roller Coaster” in the summer of 2018 featuring alt-country hero Jackie Green on organ. \nReminiscent of genre-benders like Jack White\, Chris Thile\, and Sam Bush\, Dead Winter Carpenters harmoniously blend refined musical ability with a scarcely restrained tendency to let it all hang out. The result is a controlled burn\, a riveting sound\, and a connection with fans that sells out shows and has the band sharing stages with the likes of Jason Isbell\, Easton Corbin\, Greensky Bluegrass\, Rising Appalachia and Hard Working Americans. \nMembers include Jesse Dunn (acoustic and electric guitars\, vocals)\, Jenni Charles (fiddle\, vocals)\, Nick Swimley (lead telecaster guitar\, vocals)\, Brendan Smith (drums\, vocals)\, and Jeremy Plog (bass\, vocals). \nA steadily touring band since forming in 2010\, Dead Winter Carpenters has entertained growing crowds at notable festivals including High Sierra Music Festival\, Strawberry Music Festival\, California Worldfest (CA)\, Del Fest (MD)\, Northwest String Summit (OR)\, Harvest Music Festival (AR)\, WinterWonderGrass (CA and CO)\, Hangtown Music Festival (CA) and more. Dead Winter Carpenters is a band engrained with ambition\, talent\, and authenticity. Look for them to continue to delight – and invite – fans from many music camps. \n \n“Judging from its penchant for California country\, North Lake Tahoe band Dead Winter Carpenters sounds like it has its finger on the quickening pulse of a ‘High–mountain-town vibe.'” – San Francisco Chronicle \n“Effortless five-part harmonies\, capped off by the sweet\, soft voice of Charles\, bring a surprising smoothness to the tone of the entire EP. Each track tells a story\, just as each instrument and voice coalesces into the band’s rich and textured sound.” – No Depression \nfacebook spotify website \n

SUMMARY:John Craigie
DESCRIPTION:A lot of life can happen over the course of one record. Lyrics immortalize those characters\, exploits\, and memories. On his 2020 Asterisk The Universe\, John Craigie awkwardly encounters previous flames\, mistakes a Catholic School custodian as a saint (and prays to him anyway)\, pays tribute to modern-day revolutionaries\, and explores what it all means to live in the 21st century where infinite possibility does not necessarily equate infinite understanding. He soundtracks these stories with a score of smoked-out soul\, tender folk\, and American songbook eloquence billowing right from the heart of California. Progressing once more\, the interplay of live drums and bass hold the music in the pocket as it simultaneously emanates an acoustic campfire glow. \nWith these ten tunes\, his journey unfolds in between organic instrumentation and lyrical observation. “As with any album\, I want the lyrics to be heard\, first and foremost\,” he exclaims. “This is pretty similar to other versions of who I’ve been and who I am. It’s just one with a fresh batch of songs I’ll add to my setlist and new stories to tell from the road.” \nThose stories from the road have endeared Craigie to the devoted fans he has earned\, song by song\, show by show since 2009. A Craigie performance is not just a music show\, it’s a collective experience. Craigie shines by telling candid stories\, humorous anecdotes\, and leaving everything on the stage. Fiercely independent\, Craigie prolifically unveiled one highly personal album after another while logging enough miles on the road to give The Grateful Dead a run for their money. Venues got bigger and bigger as audiences clamored for more. Capturing that electric feeling on 2016’s Capricorn In Retrograde… Just Kidding… Live in Portland\, Craigie wound up on Jack Johnson’s car stereo on a road trip up the coast. Thoroughly impressed by what he heard\, Johnson took Craigie on tour during the summer of 2017. \n2017 would be a watershed year for Craigie. From No Rain\, No Rose\, “I Am California ” [feat. Gregory Alan Isakov] eclipsed 4.5 million Spotify streams followed by “Highway Blood” [feat. Shook Twins\, Gregory Alan Isakov] with 3.5 million Spotify streams. Additionally\, he performed everywhere from High Sierra Music Festival\, Strawberry Music Festival\, and Kate Wolf Music Festival to Burning Man and Summer Camp Festival. He attracted the admiration of not-so secret admires a la Chuck Norris\, while earning acclaim from No Depression\, SF Weekly\, AXS\, Seattle Times The Portland Tribune\, and The Stranger who christened him\, “the lovechild of John Prine and Mitch Hedberg.” 2018’s Scarecrow was originally plotted as a “vinyl only” release\, but the diehard fanbase wasn’t having it. An onslaught of emails and social media messages demanded Craigie shared the music online. It appeared on DSPs shortly thereafter. \nFollowing the tour in support of No Rain\, No Rose\, Craigie dug into a different well of inspiration. \n“I’d been listening to a lot more hip-hop and soul on the trip\, and I found myself writing songs that had very simple chord structures and repetitive rhythms\,” he recalls. “In a lot of those tunes\, you hear old samples from Bill Withers\, Al Green\, and Nina Simone. I knew those artists’ talents were far beyond my own\, but they still influenced the structure of what I was doing. I even thought about doing a sample-based album\, yet I knew live was going to be the best. I wanted to record in a similar way to No Rain\, No Rose in a room with all of my friends.” \nThis time\, the room would be in the Bodega\, CA—home of The Rainbow Girls. Opening up the creative ecosystem\, he welcomed a bunch of buddies: Matt Goff [drums\, Marty O’Reilly]\, Ben Berry [bass\, Old Soul Orchestra]\, Jamie Coffis [keys\, The Coffis Brothers]\, Lorenzo Loera [organ\, The California Honeydrops]\, Niko Daoussis [guitar\, The Shook Twins]\, and\, of course\, The Rainbow Girls—into the fold. \n“Their house is an old cabin built on a few acres out in the Northern California coastal fields\,” he says. “We were all able to sequester ourselves there and get really absorbed into the process. Sessions would start in the late afternoon and go until about two or three in the morning. We’d all eat together and breathe the songs. The album is strongly influenced by California and California musicians. My roots are always coastal California. It was great to be so close to the ocean when recording and surrounded by local talent. We ate California food\, drank California wine\, and smoked California weed.” \nA rumbling bass growls at the beginning of the first single “Part Wolf” as Craigie slips into soulful rasp with a confession\, “I got that America meanness\,” over swells of organ and simmering cymbals. Laughter in the cabin gives way to the delicate nostalgia of “Nomads.” Rustling acoustic guitar\, warm piano\, and harmonica wails ebb and flow under a prayer\, “Oh Christopher\, please bless these nomads.” \n“It’s a standard tribute to all of my traveling friends and musicians who have the same lifestyle as I do\,” he continues. “The chorus comes from my Catholic school days. I remember learning how Saint Christopher was the patron saint of travelers. We were to pray to him before going on any big trips. My family went on a weekend trip to San Diego\, and I prayed to Christopher. Being young and not very smart\, I assumed the teacher referred to people living in our community\,” he laughs. “Amongst the workers at our school\, there was a trash collector named Christopher who emptied the trash cans. So\, I prayed to him. The trip was a success\, and we all made it home safely. When I learned about my ignorance\, I still found myself praying to the old janitor.” \nWith a powerhouse vocal performance\, “Climb Up” delivers an homage to “activists like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Greta Thunberg who have known the best way to make change is to involve oneself in the system and literally ‘climb up’ the ranks until it’s possible to make changes yourself.” Then\, there’s “Don’t Ask.” His sardonic sense of humor shines through as he details “how awkward and funny chance run-ins with exes can be.” The Rainbow Girls lend their wistful harmonies to “Used It All Up\,” taking center stage and covering Craigie with “an old-time sound.” \nTo accompany each respective single release prior to the rollout\, Craigie cut his own takes on a handful of personal favorites. These span everything from Flaming Lips’ “Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell” and Blaze Foley’s “Oval Room” to Nina Simone’s “To Love Somebody.” \nHe adds\, “I knew Asterisk the Universe was going to be a single LP\, but I wanted to capture the magic again of the late-night covers we were doing. So\, I thought it might be cool to release a B-side for each single to make them special like my heroes used to in the past.” \nIn the end\, Craigie’s story unfolds like never before on Asterisk The Universe. \n“I think the songs have a pleasant flow to them\,” he leaves off. “I hope it brings them back for future listens.” \n

SUMMARY:The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:*The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra show has been rescheduled to March 17\, 2022\nCurrent ticketholders: Your ticket has automatically been transferred to the new date; no action is required. Please check your inbox for a notification. \n \n\n\n \nGlenn Miller toured with several orchestras and ended up in Los Angeles where he landed a spot in Ben Pollack’s group\, a band that included a guy named Benny Goodman. Here\, Miller also got the chance to write some arrangements. He played and recorded with the likes of Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey (who on several of their records\, featured an up-and-coming singer by the name of Bing Crosby). In 1934\, Miller became the musical director of the Dorsey Band\, and later went on to organize The Ray Noble Orchestra.\n\n\n \n\n\nIn April 1935\, Glenn Miller recorded\, for the first time\, under his own name. Using six horns\, a rhythm section and a string quartet\, he recorded “Moonlight on the Ganges” and “A Blues Serenade” for Columbia. But selling only a few hundred records\, he continued his position with the Noble Orchestra.\n\n\n \n\n\nIn 1937\, Glenn Miller stepped out to form his own band. There were a few recordings — one for Decca and one for Brunswick — a couple of week-long stints in New Orleans and Dallas\, and many one-nighters\, but it was not to be. \n\n\n \n\n\nIt is said that Miller could never remember precisely the moment he decided to emphasize his new reed section sound. But it was during this disheartening interim\, that he realized the unique sound — produced by the clarinet holding the melodic line while the tenor sax plays the same note\, and supported harmonically by three other saxophones — just might be the individual and easily recognizable style that would set his band apart from all the rest.\n\n\n \n\n\nIn the Fall of 1944\, the band was scheduled to be sent on a six-week tour of Europe and would be stationed in Paris during that time. Miller decided to go ahead\, in order to make the proper arrangements for the group’s arrival. And so\, on December 15th\, Glenn Miller boarded a transport plane to Paris\, never to be seen again.\n\n\n \n\n\nHis music lives on through the The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra\, The most popular and sought after big band in the world today for both concert and swing dance engagements. With its unique jazz sound\, the Glenn Miller Orchestra is considered to be one of the greatest bands of all time.\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\nglennmillerorchestra.com\n\n \nGET TICKETS\n \n*NEW* Choose Your Own Ticket Packages.\nClick a link below and you will be directed to our ticketing platform to make your show selection.\nShows must be purchased from these pages for the discount to be applied.\nPick 3\, SAVE 5% or Pick 5\, SAVE 10%! \n \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Black Violin
DESCRIPTION:The members of Black Violin first met in Ft. Lauderdale\, and played together in the orchestra at the Dillard High School of the Performing Arts. (Baptiste originally wanted to play saxophone in the band\, but the orchestra teacher got him assigned to his class by winning a golf bet with the band instructor.) Classically trained by day\, they faithfully put on their headphones and listened to the hottest rap records each night. They went to different colleges—Marcus attended Florida International University and Wil B went to Florida State—but then reconvened\, moved into an apartment together\, and started trying to produce other musicians. They developed an act covering hip-hop songs on their violins\, which became popular in local clubs. Two years after sending in a tape to Showtime at the Apollo\, they were invited to appear on the show—which they won\, and kept winning. \n“We had a wall that we wrote stuff on\,” says Wil Baptiste\, describing the process that led to Black Violin’s new album\, Take the Stairs. “We had all the ideas about what story we were going to convey. And it kept coming back to the idea of hope—songs that spoke about going against the grain\, carrying through struggle\, being optimistic. We wanted to say\, ‘it’s tough now\, but hang in there.’ ” Much like the ways their instruments interact on stage\, Wil’s creative collaborator Kev Marcus echoes this theme\, and then expands it. “Hope is the thread that keeps this thing together\, it’s the heartbeat of this album\,” he says. “But then a lot of tentacles went different ways—the song Impossible is Possible’ is about challenging people. So it went different directions from just being hopeful\, we took it a little further.” \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nSpecial thanks to our sponsor \n \nCURRENT COVID-19 PROTOCOLS:\n \nDocuments will be checked at the door. Patrons are welcome to come up to two hours prior to the show to check in. Once checked in\, you are welcome to leave and grab dinner or a drink at the bar and then go straight into the show once doors are open.

SUMMARY:Portland Cello Project
DESCRIPTION:In the fall of 2006 a group of 9 cellists got on stage at Portland’s Doug Fir Lounge to perform western classical music in an informal setting. Many of the cellists that night thought it would only happen once. By 2009 the group had evolved into a nationally-recognized performing\, recording and educational group with a revolving cast of cellists. Cello Project (or PCP as their fans affectionately call them) were quickly appearing anywhere and everywhere in North America\, from punk rock clubs to symphony halls. The group developed a three-part philosophy that has mostly remained unchanged over the years: to bring the cello places you wouldn’t normally see it\, to perform music on the cello you wouldn’t normally associate with the instrument\, and to build bridges between different musical communities through education\, community outreach\, and through collaboration. CMJ said\,“[PCP] concerts are purposely suitable for all demographics: boogie-ing grannies\, head nodding hipsters\, budding middle-school musicians and everyone in between because bringing everyone together in a spirit of collaboration only adds to the philosophy of diversity that PCP proudly upholds.” \n \nPORTLAND CELLO PROJECT website| facebook | instagram | youtube \n \n \nPORTLAND CELLO PROJECT\nSunday\, March 27\, 2022\nDoors: 7 PM | Showtime: 8 PM \nReserved Seating: $27-$42 \nGet Tickets \n \n \nGenre: Classical Crossover \nBecome a member to get discounted tickets\, early access\, flexible exchanges and more!

SUMMARY:The Mother Hips
DESCRIPTION:Twenty-five years into a celebrated career is an unlikely time to switch things up\, but the “divinely inspired” (Rolling Stone) Mother Hips have never been ones to follow convention. For their brilliant and exhilarating tenth album\, ‘Chorus\,’ the California stalwarts turned their recording process on its head in order to make their most fully realized and essential collection yet. \nOriginally signed by Rick Rubin while still just students at Chico State\, The Mother Hips have spent two-and-a-half decades at the forefront of a new breed of California rock and roll—one equally informed by the breezy harmonies of the Beach Boys\, the funky roots of The Band\, and the psychedelic Americana of Buffalo Springfield—and established themselves as “one of the Bay Area’s most beloved live outfits” (San Francisco Guardian) through countless headline shows\, massive festival appearances\, and dates with everyone from Johnny Cash and Wilco to Lucinda Williams and The Black Crowes. The New Yorker lauded the band’s ability to “sing it sweet and play it dirty\,” and ‘Chorus’ is perhaps the finest example yet of that intoxicating dichotomy\, a richly melodic album firmly rooted in gritty rock and roll with the kind of evocative storytelling that The Mother Hips do best. \n \nwww.motherhips.com \n \n \n \n\nTHANK YOU TO OUR SHOW SPONSOR\n\n \n \n \n \n \n*NEW* Choose Your Own Ticket Packages.\nClick a link below and you will be directed to our ticketing platform to make your show selection.\nShows must be purchased from these pages for the discount to be applied.\nPick 3\, SAVE 5% or Pick 5\, SAVE 10%! \n \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Sarah Jarosz
DESCRIPTION:“Sarah represents the vitality of the modern folk era… reverence for tradition\, and passion for the future.”\n— Aengus Finnan\, Folk Alliance International Executive Director \n\n \n \nWith her captivating voice and richly detailed songwriting\, Sarah Jarosz has emerged as one of the most compelling musicians of her generation. A four-time Grammy Award-winner at the age of 30\, the Texas native started singing as a young girl and became an accomplished multi-instrumentalist by her early teens. After releasing her full-length debut Song Up in Her Head at 18-years-old\, she went on to deliver such critically lauded albums as Follow Me Down\, Build Me Up From Bones\, and 2016’s Undercurrent\, in addition to joining forces with Sara Watkins and Aoife O’Donovan to form the acclaimed Grammy winning folk trio I’m With Her. \nIn the making of her new album World On the Ground\, the New York City-based artist collaborated with producer/songwriter John Leventhal: a five-time Grammy Award winner known for his work with Elvis Costello\, Shawn Colvin\, and his wife Rosanne Cash. Working almost entirely on their own\, the two musicians crafted a subtle tapestry of sound perfectly suited to Jarosz’s lyrical storytelling. In a departure from the nuanced introspection of her previous work\, World On the Ground unfolds as a finely wrought collection of stories from her hometown of Wimberley\, Texas (population: 2\,626)\, presenting a series of character sketches nearly novelistic in emotional scope. As she inhabits characters both real and imagined—exploring the tension and inertia of small-town living\, the desire for escape and the ease of staying put—Jarosz reveals her remarkable gift for slipping into the inner lives of others and patiently uncovering so much indelible insight. \n \n \n \nwww.sarahjarosz.com \n \n \n\n“The lyrics are sharp\, even cruel; the guitars are low and steady;\nand Jarosz’s vocal carriage is uncharacteristically\n(and deliciously) unyielding.”\n— NPR Music

SUMMARY:An Evening with Rodney Crowell
DESCRIPTION:With more than 40 years of American roots music under his belt\, Texas native RODNEY CROWELL is a two-time Grammy Award winner who has written fifteen #1 hits with five Number One hits of his own and a legacy of songwriting excellence which has made him an icon among giants. With strong roots in country music\, Crowell has written chart-topping hits for the likes of Emmylou Harris\, Johnny Cash\, Waylon Jennings\, Keith Urban and more. But owing to the distinctly universal\, literary quality of his writing\, has also penned beloved songs for artists as diverse as Bob Seger\, Etta James\, the Grateful Dead\, John Denver\, Jimmy Buffett and countless others. A member of the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame\, Crowell is also the author of the acclaimed memoir\, Chinaberry Sidewalks\, and teamed up with New York Times best-selling author Mary Karr for Kin: Songs by Mary Karr & Rodney Crowell in 2012\, with Karr saying of her collaborator\, “Like Hank Williams or Townes Van Zandt or Miss Lucinda\, he writes and croons with a poet’s economy and a well digger’s deep heart.” Crowell was honored with ASCAP’s prestigious Founder’s Award in 2017\, and that same year released the album Close Ties\, which spawned another Grammy nomination for “It Ain’t Over Yet” with Rosanne Cash and John Paul White in the category of Best Americana Song. In 2018\, he opened his own record label\, RC1 Records\, and released Acoustic Classics in 2018 and TEXAS in 2019. Rodney’s upcoming album\, Triage\, will be released July 23rd on RC1 Records/Thirty Tigers. \n
