From an early age she found inspiration and creativity in the visual arts. Her love for art drew her to a series of mentorships with accomplished professional artists\, including Max Ferry\, Juan Pena\, and Sylvia Rogers. This strong foundation of rigorous training in a wide range of genres and mediums led to her own successful career as an artist\, including commissions from Sacramento Zoo\, the Folsom Zoo\, the California State Water Resources Board\, and numerous local businesses. \nAs an arts educator\, Virginia has taught art for 30 years here in the community at all age and skill levels\, both in the public school system and as a private instructor\, including co-founding and teaching with Community Canvas. For Virginia\, a smile on the face of a student after they complete a work of art is always a cherished moment. Through her belief that art is for everyone and that everyone has an inner artist that wants to come out and play\, even self-declared “non-artistic” guests leave her classes with a beautiful work of art that they’re proud of—not to mention a whole new set of memories. Virginia’s passion for art is contagious and living on the Right Side is her mantra. \n  \nArts Education at The Center\nThe Center is expanding their arts education offerings to adults with creative workshops starting late-summer. These workshops are for adults 17+. Locations range from in-house to virtual depending on the program. The Center is committed to providing creative offerings to the community in these challenging times. \nWe are currently seeking teachers. Do you have skills you’d like to share? Don’t have time to market classes on your own?

Her vibrant\, large-format contemporary paintings of the Yuba River grace many homes in the county and beyond. \nDenise has a passion not only for painting\, but also for teaching.

The lush trees and the rock sculpture\, the reflections of cobalt\, turquoise\, emerald and ember of the waters\, are all imbued with the joyful spirit of the river. I’ve decided that my path is to immerse myself in the dazzling beauty and transcribe it’s living presence onto canvas for generations to come.” – Denise Wey. \n  \n  \n \nTo view her portfolio of paintings\, order the book or explore classes please visit her website: www.denisewey.com \n  \n  \nDenise Wey – A Retrospective\, will be on display in The Granucci Gallery at The Center for the Arts from Friday\, November 6 through Wednesday\, December 23\, 2020.   \n  \nDenise Wey  website | facebook | instagram | pinterest

SUMMARY:From The Center: Golden Shoulders
DESCRIPTION:Golden Shoulders\nA long-tenured band from Nevada City\, California\, Golden Shoulders are known for their freewheeling mix of scrappy indie rock\, power pop\, and folk as well as a constantly fluctuating lineup which centers around the melodic songwriting of leader Adam Kline. \n \n  \n \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \nOpener: Paige Lucile\nPaige Lucile Anderson (Guitar/Banjo/Songwriter) started playing music at the age of 9 with her father. Shortly after learning guitar the rest of the family picked up instruments and Anderson Family Bluegrass was formed (2004-2013). When the family band ended\, the siblings still had a desire to pursue music. Paige started writing songs at the age of 15. By the age of 17 she had written an entire collection of songs and the siblings formed a band called The Fearless Kin. They released 2 albums and played together for 4 years. After some time the younger siblings life directions changed and the Fearless Kin dissolved. \nIn the last few years Paige is still pursuing her passion of music. She has been writing and recording in Los Angeles\, formed a new band\, played bass for Family of The Year and toured across North America and Germany. Paige finished recording a new album earlier this year and is planning on releasing very soon. \n  \nPaige Lucile  Instagram \n  \n  \n  \n  \n\nBroadcasting Live Music From The Center. \nThis summer\, on select Friday nights\, The Center for the Arts invites you to tune in from home to enjoy live streaming shows.

Their repertoire includes pieces for trio as well as several works with orchestra. PROJECT Trio’s discography includes five recordings and a DVD\, PROJECT Trio: Live in Concert. This season will see the release of their 6th recording of original new music. Their recordings When Will Then Be Now and the Random Roads Collection\, debuted at the top of both the Billboard Canadian and US classical and jazz charts.

SUMMARY:B - The Underwater Bubble Show
DESCRIPTION:*This show has been postponed. We are working with the artist to find a new date.\n  \nThe Unexpected journey of Mr. B in the colorful underwater world of Bubblelandia \nAfter another long day\, as always filled with things to do\, meetings\, deadlines to be met\, Mr. B finds himself transported as if by magic in a special\, colorful\, happy place called Bubblelandia. \nBubblelandia is a place in which to linger\, to dream\, to listen\, to watch\, to savor\, and to marvel but\, above all a place to daydream. The “inhabitants” of Bubblelandia – seahorses\, dragon fish\, starfish\, mermaids\, clownfish and others – will carry Mr. B along his imaginary journey in this beautiful underwater world where fantasy becomes reality and you are invited to follow him. \n  \n“Cirque du Soleil meet Giant bubbles” -Translated from …. Latvian press \n  \nYou will not need an oxygen tank to breathe; just let your mind run wild\, open your heart and relieve the everyday stress! Suddenly millions of bubbles of all shapes and colors\, along with the foam of waves and other surprises will immediately swallow and transport you into this parallel universe of joy and freedom. \n  \nStoryline \nThe plot is very simple and based on our modern everyday life; always too busy\, filled with stress increased by the abuse of mobile phones\, tablet\, PCs and other gadgets that allow us to make a faster connection…causing us to lose connection with reality. How many of us have ever wanted\, at least for a moment\, to be able to stop time just to take a breath and daydream? The solution\, in fact\, is simple and accessible to us all: don’t be afraid to let yourself go. \n  \nThe Project \n“B” the show was produced with the help and support of the biggest authorities in the field of entertainment and theatre in Latvia. The well balanced blend of drama\, mime\, dance\, puppetry\, juggling\, contortionism\, sand art and magic\, with the amazing beauty of soap bubbles make „B” unique and perfect for any audience. The visual impact of the show is further enhanced by the original music of Valdis Zilvers (the most famous Latvian composer of soundtracks for theatre plays)\, the costumes specially designed by E.Patmalniece (popular fashion designer and main costume designer of the Latvian National Opera) and the artistic makeup created by Marita Gaidele ( main make-up artist of LNT Latvian Television). \n  \nThe Style \nInspired by the famous Canadian troupe “Cirque du Soleil”\, the show is rich in various stage effects using the latest laser technologies\, snow cannons\, soap bubble tornadoes\, theatrical fog\, gigantic smoke rings\, smoke-filled soap bubble machines\, optical illusions and many other surprises. The performance is enriched by a live video shooting connected to a large LED screen (35 sq. meters – 380 sq. Feet) that acts as a background and allows for better visibility even in the largest of auditoriums (“B” has been performed in theatres with over 3000 seats). \nAdults and children alike will enjoy the show\, thanks to the high interactivity and audience participation\, the extremely visual content (there are no spoken words as all the show is musical) and the different levels of interpretations that will make adults to think and children to smile. \n  \n“B” is a visual\, musical\, emotional and lavish show that transports people in an imaginary underwater world with a real feeling of being submersed in the ocean deep.” –Translated from …. Latvian press \n  \n \nProduced by “Brinum-X” \, a Latvian company with over 20 years of experience in the entertainment business and with vast experience in over 32 countries all around the world\, and directed by Italian theatre director\, actor and bubble artist Enrico Pezzoli – one of the most experienced soap bubble performers in the world that have worked as a director and Bubble expert/advisor for many International event as the RIGA 800 Years celebration and the OLYMPICS Games in SOCHI 2014 – with the cooperation of performer and bubble artist Dace Pecoli – as well expert in this field and with the same experience of Enrico Pezzoli\, as they worked in team since 1998 – „B” is the first bubble show that give a meaning and a new dimension to the art of soap bubbles\, bringing it to an unsurpassed level\, and it is going to be one of the most exciting shows that the audience will ever witness.

SUMMARY:Taimane
DESCRIPTION:*This show has been postponed. We are working with the artist to find a new date.\nTaimane translates to diamond from Samoan and perfectly reflects the different facets of her nature. Whether delicately finger-picking through Bach or radically ripping through Led Zeppelin\, Taimane has the ability to morph genres – from classical to rock to flamenco – and stretch her instrument far beyond the familiar melodies of Hawai`i\, where she grew up. When Don Ho caught wind of the talented teen\, he invited her to join him as part of his venerable variety show at the Waikiki Beachcomber\, further fueling Taimane’s desire to perform for and connect with audiences. In addition to performing her own distinctive versions of well-known pieces\, Taimane weaves in original compositions that are as far ranging as her musical tastes. With the fierceness of a rocker\, and the grace of a dancer\, Taimane and her music are wowing ever-larger audiences. She lights up rooms wherever she goes\, sparkling like the diamond that she is. \n  \nTAIMANE website | facebook | instagram | youtube \n  \n  \nTAIMANE\nPostponed Tuesday\, March 9\, 2021\nDoors: 6:30 PM | Showtime: 7:30 PM \nReserved Seating: $25-$40 \nGet Tickets \n

SUMMARY:The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:*The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra show is postponed\nWe are currently working with the artist to reschedule. This show is presented by The Center for the Arts\, a non-profit cultural and education organization dedicated to presenting and promoting the arts. We would be grateful if you would consider supporting us by making your unused ticket a tax-deductible donation or applying it towards a Membership. We can also issue gift cards for future use at The Center.\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 \n

SUMMARY:Portland Cello Project
DESCRIPTION:*This show has been postponed.

We would be grateful if you would consider supporting us by making your unused ticket a tax-deductible donation or applying it towards a Membership. We can also issue gift cards for future use at The Center. \n\nIn 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\nPostponed Friday\, March 26\, 2021\nDoors: 7 PM | Showtime: 8 PM \nReserved Seating: $24-$40 \nGet Tickets \n  \n  \nGenre: Classical Crossover \nSimilar Shows: The Queen’s Cartoonist | Project Trio | MIM Chorus \n  \n  \nBecome a member to get discounted tickets\, early access\, flexible exchanges and more! \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:The Mother Hips
DESCRIPTION:*This show has been postponed.

We would be grateful if you would consider supporting us by making your unused ticket a tax-deductible donation or applying it towards a Membership. We can also issue gift cards for future use at The Center. \n\nTwenty-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

SUMMARY:Mad River Theater Works: Wings of Courage
DESCRIPTION:*This show has been postponed. We are working with the artist to find a new date.\nThis show is presented by The Center for the Arts\, a non-profit cultural and education organization dedicated to presenting and promoting the arts. We would be grateful if you would consider supporting us by making your unused ticket a tax-deductible donation or applying it towards a Membership. We can also issue gift cards for future use at The Center. \n\nWings of Courage is an original play with music by Mad River Theater Works based on the life of Eugene Bullard\, the first African-American combat pilot and adventurer. Bullard’s story would be unbelievable if it were not all true. He was a professional boxer and a World War I flying ace. He was a jazz musician. He was a spy. Who was this remarkable African-American? Born in Columbus\, Georgia\, Bullard traveled the world. He joined the French Foreign Legion after being denied a meaningful place in the United States Army. He rose through the ranks and flew against the famous “Red Baron” as a part of the famous Lafayette Escadrille during World War I. But when the Escadrille was incorporated into the new U.S. Army Air Corps in 1917\, the color of Bullard’s skin prevented him from taking his place alongside the other American heroes of his day. But that didn’t stop him. He went on to fame as a bandleader in Paris in 1920’s. Using storytelling\, music\, and drama\, Wings of Courage shows how Bullard’s determination and perseverance helped him to overcome discrimination throughout his remarkable life. It is an uplifting tale of vision and hope that deserves to be known by every American. \nMad River Theater Works is an acclaimed touring ensemble that creates vibrant and evocative plays with music for families and young audiences based on American history and folklore. The artists of Mad River seek out subjects that reflect the rich diversity of our common heritage and make shows that combine the rhythms and folkways of everyday life with tales about extraordinary individuals.  \n  \nMAD RIVER THEATER WORKS website | facebook | videos \n  \nSTUDENT MATINEE: Age appropriateness: 3rd grade and up\nDuration: 50 minutes plus a question and answer session \n  \n  \nWINGS OF COURAGE\nPOSTPONED Friday\, April 16\, 2021\nDoors: 9 AM | Showtime: 10 AM \nGeneral Admission*:  $15 youth / $25 adult \nGet Tickets  \n*Schools will be assigned seating \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nGenre: Theater – Youth – Education \nLearn More about Youth Arts Education and Programming  \n  \n  \n  \nBecome a member to get discounted tickets\, early access\, flexible exchanges and more! \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Marc Cohn
DESCRIPTION:After winning a Grammy for his soulful ballad “Walking in Memphis\,” Marc Cohn solidified his place as one of this generation’s most compelling singer-songwriters\, combining the precision of a brilliant tunesmith with the passion of a great soul man. Rooted in the rich ground of American rhythm and blues\, soul and gospel and possessed of a deft storyteller’s pen\, he weaves vivid\, detailed\, often drawn-from-life tales that evoke some of our most universal human feelings: love\, hope\, faith\, joy\, heartbreak.\n\n\n \n\n\nCohn followed up his platinum-selling debut with two more releases in the 1990s\, at which point Time magazine called him “one of the honest\, emotional voices we need in this decade” and Bonnie Raitt declared\, “Marc is one of the most soulful\, talented artists I know. I love his songs\, he’s an incredible singer\, and I marvel at his ability to mesmerize every audience he plays for Bonnie Raitt\, James Taylor\, David Crosby\, Graham Nash and Patty Griffin all made guest appearances on Cohn’s early records for Atlantic as his reputation as an artist and performer continued to grow. In 1998\, Cohn took a decade-long sabbatical from recording\, ending in 2007 with Join the Parade. Inspired by the horrific events following Hurricane Katrina and his own near fatal shooting just weeks before\, Parade is his most moving and critically acclaimed record to date. \n\n\n \n\n\nAbout his album Listening Booth: 1970\, a collection of reimagined classics from that seminal year in music\, Rolling Stone said\, “Cohn has one of rock’s most soulful croons – a rich\, immediately recognizable tenor that makes these songs his own.” In late 2014\, Cohn released “The Coldest Corner in the World\,” the title song to the documentary Tree Man and his first original song released in more than seven years. \n\n\n \n\n\nOn March 25\, 2016\, in celebration of the 25th anniversary of his platinum-selling debut album\, released Careful What You Dream: Lost Songs and Rarities along with the bonus album Evolution of a Record\, featuring never-before-heard songs and demos dating back to years before his debut album and the Grammy award that followed. \n\n\n \n\n\nMarc’s momentum continued into a busy and fruitful 2017\, which he spent in part on the road with the legendary Michael McDonald\, garnering critical acclaim across the U.S. His writing talent was also drafted for work with a roster of American music greats including soul survivor William Bell\, who won his first Grammy at age 78 with Marc’s help; Marc co-wrote a solid half of Bell’s celebrated album This is Where I Live\, including the passionate opening cut “The Three Of Me.” The album revived the sound of Stax soul’s golden age\, when Bell had first cut his teeth as an artist\, and which had influenced Marc Cohn so powerfully – in its way\, completing a circle and letting Marc give back to one of the originators of the sound that shaped him.\n\n\n \n\n\nMarc revisited another corner of American music’s rich heritage with the Blind Boys of Alabama on the Grammy-nominated song “Let My Mother Live\,” and also worked with David Crosby on the album Lighthouse. As powerfully influenced by the singer-songwriter tradition as he is by the legacy of soul and gospel\, working with the ‘60s icon was a project that got right to Marc’s creative core.\n\n\n \n\n\nIn 2019\, Marc will release a collaborative record with gospel legends Blind Boys of Alabama titled Work To Do which will be released on August 9th on BMG. Work to Do is comprised of three studio tracks by Cohn and the Blind Boys (two originals\, including the title track\, and a version of the gospel standard “Walk In Jerusalem”) plus seven intimate live performances recorded at the Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center in Old Saybrook\, CT\, during a taping of the PBS series The Kate. Original plans were to release an EP containing the studio tracks\, but the excitement and magic captured during the taping inspired the decision to create this unique hybrid album. \n\n\n \n\n\nMoving forward\, Marc continues to do what he does best: infuse American music with both a fresh perspective and a reverence for its deep roots.\n\n \n\n \n\nmarccohnmusic.com \n \n\nTHANK YOU TO OUR SHOW SPONSOR\n\n  \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:Suzy Bogguss
DESCRIPTION:*This show has been postponed. We are working with the artist to find a new date.\nThis show is presented by The Center for the Arts\, a non-profit cultural and education organization dedicated to presenting and promoting the arts. We would be grateful if you would consider supporting us by making your unused ticket a tax-deductible donation or applying it towards a Membership.

But you can’t peg Suzy that easily. In the midst of her country popularity she took time off to make a duets album with the legendary Chet Atkins. In 2003 she made an album of modern swing music with Ray Benson of Asleep At The Wheel. An album of original music in 2007 landed her at number 4 on the jazz charts. Her folk music roots show through in her frequent appearances on public radio’s A Prairie Home Companion\, in the Grammy she earned for her work on Beautiful Dreamer: The Songs of Stephen Foster\, and in her critically acclaimed album and book project from 2011\, American Folk Songbook. In 2014 she released Lucky\, a collection of songs written by Merle Haggard and interpreted through Suzy’s crystal vocals from the female point of view. Her latest offering\, Aces Redux\, is a re-recording of her platinum selling album Aces produced by Suzy with fresh arrangements and her signature sparkling vocals.

SUMMARY:Tower of Power

Learn More.  \nVIP EXPERIENCE INCLUDES:\n• Early entry into the venue\n• Exclusive pre-show meet & greet with members of Tower of Power\n• Personal photograph with members of Tower of Power\n• VIP access to Tower of Power’s pre-show soundcheck\n• Q&A session\n• Exclusive Tower of Power tour poster autographed by the band!\n• Commemorative Tower of Power pin set\n• Exclusive Tower of Power VIP merchandise item\n• Commemorative ticket \n*Please note: upgrade package only; package does not include a ticket to the concert; fans must purchase a concert ticket separately to attend the VIP experience. Availability is limited.\n\n  \nOakland\, California music legends Tower of Power – the most dynamic and distinctive band of survivors in Soul Music – is roaring into its unprecedented 50th anniversary with a dynamic new disc of all new material that finds them as energized and inspired as ever. A labor of love\, definitively titled Soul Side of Town\, this package is charged with 14 filler-free songs. In the spirit of their enduring theme song “Oakland Stroke” – the bookending intro and outro “East Bay” shine a light on elemental instrumental ingredients within the band’s signature sound. This astounding and historical release inaugurates Tower of Power’s fresh affiliation with Mack Avenue Records\, a Detroit-based company renowned for its award-winning dedication to top-tier Jazz that is now extending its support to Soul and Funk giants\, Tower of Power: a band so one-of-a-kind\, it’s an institution. \n  \n \n  \nAs always\, the songs on Tower of Power’s Soul Side of Town were primarily composed by the hitmaking team of founding members Emilio Castillo (Detroit-born on 2nd tenor sax) and Stephen “Doc” Kupka (Los Angeles-born on baritone sax) who also hold down the world famous 5-man Tower of Power Horns. For the special occasion of Tower of Power’s 50th anniversary\, leader Emilio Castillo brought in a most-astute choice in co-producer\, Joe Vannelli: an all-around production/engineering/keyboard master best known for the jazz-tinged Soul-Rock Grammy-winning work he performed behind the scenes with his international superstar brother\, Gino Vannelli. Also insuring that the sound blasts powerful and clear from your speakers is the presence of mastering engineer Bernie Grundman in the mix. Along with the legendary rhythm section drums and bass lock of David Garibaldi and Francis Rocco Prestia\, respectively\, these decorated veterans have custom-crafted a hair-raising audio experience that longtime fans\, music connoisseurs and a new generation of listeners will groove to for years to come. \nIn keeping with Tower of Power’s golden canon of classics\, the new material picks up the torch in all of the time-tested styles fans respect and love. In line with hiply intricate\, cranial-crushing funk classics such as “Down to the Nightclub” and “Soul Vaccination” are new jams “Do You Like That” and “On the Soul Side of Town.” In the tradition of heart-stopping balladry like their biggest chart hits “You’re Still a Young Man” and “So Very Hard to Go” are new love songs like “Let it Go” (Bruno Mars will want to cover this one) and “Can’t Stop Thinking About You.” Along the firing-on-all-cylinders line of instrumental anomalies such as “Squib Cakes\,” “Walking Up Hip Street” and “Ebony Jam” are burnin’ offerings “Butter-Fried” and “After Hours.” Following up positivity primers such as “Knock Yourself Out\,” “You’ve Got to Funkifize” and “Credit” are new spirit lifters “Selah\,” “Love Must Be Patient and Kind” and “Do it With Soul\,” along with T.O.P.’s singular approach to Pop-Rock on “When Love Takes Control.” \n  \n \n  \nAlong with veteran members Castillo\, Kupka\, Garibaldi and Prestia\, T.O.P. consists of guitarist Jerry Cortez\, Hammond B3 organist/keyboardist Roger Smith\, 1st tenor saxophonist Tom Politzer\, and trumpeters Adolfo Acosta and Sal Cracchiolo. Soul Side of Town is also blessed with not one but two lead singers: outgoing Ray Greene (now in Santana) and incoming Marcus Scott (boldly introduced on several selections\, including “Hanging with My Baby”). The 10-piece Tower of Power band is prepared to throw down next year with a celebratory tour that will include sweet spots around the globe. \n  \nSince its formation in Oakland\, California in 1968\, Tower of Power has forged a reputation as a crack band of high achieving musicians fluent in all realms of Soul\, Rock and Pop music with a sophistication and punch like that of a Jazz big band. From their first album East Bay Grease (1970) on Rock impresario Bill Graham’s San Francisco Records label (distributed by Atlantic)\, the interracial band became pillars and signatures of The Bay Area Music Scene that included pioneering like-minded bands such as Sly & The Family Stone\, Cold Blood\, Graham Central Station\, The Pointer Sisters and The Sons of Champlin plus rock-oriented outfits such as Santana\, Betty Davis and Journey. Beginning with their sophomore release\, Tower of Power came to prominence with a string of acclaimed albums on Warner Bros. Records: Bump City (1972)\, Tower of Power (1973)\, Back to Oakland (1974)\, Urban Renewal (1974)\, In the Slot (1975) and Live and in Living Color (1976). A move to Columbia Records resulted in three more major label releases and their last top-charting hit\, “You Ought To Be Havin’ Fun.” Including all studio albums\, live albums and rarities anthologies\, T.O.P. has 24 previous releases in its burgeoning catalog. \n  \nAlong with T.O.P.’s classic recordings\, the 5-piece Tower of Power Horns – known for its power packed punch and fullness with two trumpets\, two tenor saxophones plus a baritone sax on the bottom – became much in demand for studio sessions and live gigs. Among the hundreds of artists they have blessed with their presence are Rufus featuring Chaka Khan\, Graham Central Station\, Elton John\, Little Feat\, Billy Preston\, John Lee Hooker\, Coke Escovedo\, Jose Feliciano\, Al Kooper\, Sammy Hagar\, Rod Stewart\, Peter Frampton\, Jermaine Jackson\, Harvey Mason\, Lenny White\, The Brothers Johnson\, The Meters\, Lee Oskar\, Dionne Warwick\, Melissa Manchester\, Bobby Caldwell\, Heart\, Rick James\, Santana\, Smokey Robinson\, Huey Lewis & The News\, Toto\, Paul Shaffer\, Bonnie Raitt\, Aaron Neville\, Spyro Gyra\, Terence Trent D’Arby\, Luther Vandross\, Candy Dulfer\, Aerosmith\, Phish\, John Hiatt\, Neil Diamond\, P.Diddy\, Bill Wyman\, Eiko Shuri…and TV’s The Simpsons (Sing The Blues). \n  \nMost importantly\, when almost all other R&B bands abandoned their horn sections as the sound of Soul music morphed into more stripped-down techno and synthesizer strains in the `80s\, Tower of Power near single-handedly carried the torch for full-on 10-piece bands\, often even including a conguero/percussionist. Faithful fans flocked to their concerts and purchased their new albums that kept the real soul vibe alive for decades. Indeed\, the horn section is so pivotal to Tower of Power that unlike most band stage setups that have horns in the back\, T.O.P.’s renowned and respected horn section is right up-front with the lead singer. \n \n  \nSoul Side of Town is the centerpiece of a celebratory 50th Anniversary campaign for Tower of Power that will also see the re-release via Mack Avenue Records of four hard to find independent productions: The East Bay Archive Vol. 1 (a 1973 live recording from Boston)\, Oakland Zone (a 2008 release celebrated for the return of drummer David Garibaldi after several years away)\, Great American Soulbook (an all-star affair of soul classics featuring guests such as Joss Stone\, Tom Jones\, Sam Moore and Huey Lewis)\, and 40th Anniversary: Live at The Fillmore in San Francisco (a deluxe multi-disc CD/DVD collector’s item loaded with great new live renditions of hits plus interviews with alumni past and present). \nThis year promises to be a BLAST for Tower of Power and all its fans as they celebrate their 50th anniversary with a motherload of electrifying new sounds guaranteed to funkifize\, energize and provide the soundtrack for new American movements of Love\, Peace\, Soul Power\, Mind Power and People Power to rise! \nwebsite | facebook | youtube \n  \n \n\nTHANK YOU TO OUR SHOW SPONSOR\n\n  \n \n  \n  \n\n  \n*NEW* Choose Your Own Ticket Packages. Click a link below and you will be directed to our ticketing platform to make your show selection.

SUMMARY:Django Festival Allstars
