SUMMARY:Sam Bush
DESCRIPTION:The “King of Telluride” delivers Rockport the high-energy\, jazz and rock-infused newgrass that earned him an Americana Music Association Lifetime Achievement Award. \nSam Bush\, a pioneering force in progressive bluegrass\, has spent over five decades redefining the genre with his signature mandolin style and genre-blending approach. Born in Bowling Green\, Kentucky\, he was immersed in music from an early age\, influenced by his father’s fiddle playing and inspired by artists like Bill Monroe and the Osborne Brothers. By his teens\, Bush had already won a three national championships in the junior division of the National Oldtime Fiddler’s Contest and recorded his first album\, Poor Richard’s Almanac. \nIn 1966\, at just 18\, he turned down an offer to join country star Roy Acuff’s band\, choosing instead to follow a more experimental path. He joined the Bluegrass Alliance in 1969\, where he first played with future collaborators. The following year\, Bush and his bandmates formed New Grass Revival\, igniting a revolution in bluegrass by incorporating elements of rock\, jazz\, reggae\, and improvisation. Despite initial resistance from traditionalists\, the band gained a devoted following\, toured with Leon Russell\, and became a staple of the festival circuit. Bush’s innovative mandolin technique and boundary-pushing compositions helped solidify New Grass Revival’s legacy through the 1970s and 1980s. \nBush moved on from the band in 1989 after two decades\, spending the next several years collaborating with Emmylou Harris’ Nash Ramblers and later Lyle Lovett. He earned multiple International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) Mandolin Player of the Year awards and reconnected with Béla Fleck to tour with the Flecktones. In 1995\, he embarked on a solo career\, releasing acclaimed albums such as Glamour & Grits (1996) and Laps in Seven (2006)\, showcasing his signature mix of bluegrass\, jam-band energy\, and instrumental mastery. \nA festival favorite\, Bush became a regular at Telluride\, earning the title “King of Telluride” for his electrifying performances. His influence spans generations\, inspiring artists like Punch Brothers\, Steep Canyon Rangers\, and Greensky Bluegrass. His contributions to music were recognized in 2009 when he received the Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award for Instrumentalist.

The brainchild of ace Boston guitarists Ryan Taylor and Johnny Trama\, this collective\, more than a mere homage\, harness the Allman Brothers tradition as a vehicle to bring a unique and exciting experience every night. \nMatt Zeiner began his professional music career touring with Matt “Guitar” Murphy\, who exposed him to a fusion of blues and jazz.

Zeiner’s band has since been working on an ambitious new album\, showcasing his ability to craft infectious melodies with tight\, dynamic arrangements across a range of soul\, R&B\, and rock genres. Johnny Trama on guitar conjures up riffs and rhythms that speak volumes. His journey through the realms of rock\, soul\, and blues\, playing with icons like Bettye LaVette and Jesse Dee\, has armed him with a mystical musical prowess. Jesse Williams on bass has played with everyone from Duke Robillard\, Louis Walker to North Mississippi Allstars. Tom Arey behind the drums has played with artists like Peter Wolf’s Midnight Travelers. Brendan Tommaney on percussion has played with groups like Pink Talking Fish\, Tommaney and brings a jazz-infused sensibility that adds depth and dimension to the band’s sound.

SUMMARY:Art is Love: A Talk and Concert at PEM
DESCRIPTION:Know before you go\nIn-person event\nLocation: Morse Auditorium \nIncluded with admission; preregistration encouraged. \nThis program includes moderately loud live music (amplified sound and percussion). \nJoin us for an afternoon of music and dialogue exploring the creative process in contemporary songwriting and performance. This conversation among original works by artists Muriel Teodori\, Kessada and Steve Nieve pays tribute to two of the most iconic figures in modern music: Tom Waits and Elvis Costello. \nThrough conversation\, live performance and personal storytelling\, the trio invites the audience to reflect on the art of creation\, the power of love and the eternal interplay between control and spontaneity in artistic expression. \nThe Talk: Three Angles on Artistic Creation \n1. What is the process of creation in art?\nMuriel Teodori explores the psychological and philosophical dimensions of creativity. \n2. Improvisation: Does it really exist?\nIs improvisation truly spontaneous\, or is it the result of years of structure and discipline? Steve Nieve draws from his classical training and rock experience to explore improvisation as both freedom and illusion. \n3. Production: Can it be Perfect? Control or Freedom?\nIn the age of digital tools and infinite takes\, Kessada questions the obsession with perfection. \nThe Concert: Art is Love \nOriginal songs are woven together with deeply personal interpretations of works by Tom Waits and Elvis Costello — two masters of storytelling through music. Each song\, each note\, is a continuation of the conversation.
