SUMMARY:Charlie Parr with The Wildmans
DESCRIPTION:3/13/2024\n21+ / Positive I.D. Required. 7:30p Doors / 8:30p Show \nIn the music of Charlie Parr\, there is a sincere conviction and earnest drive to create. The Minnesota-born guitarist\, songwriter\, and interpreter of traditional music has released 19 albums over two decades and has been known to perform up to 275 shows a year. Parr is a folk troubadour in the truest sense: taking to the road between shows\, writing and rewriting songs as he plays\, fueled by a belief that music is eternal and cannot be claimed or adequately explained. The bluesman poet pulls closely from the sights and sounds around him\, his lyrical craftsmanship built by his influences. The sounds from his working-class upbringing—including Folkways legends such as Lead Belly and Woody Guthrie—imbue Parr’s music with stylistic echoes of blues and folk icons of decades past. Parr sees himself merely as a continuer of a folk tradition: “I feel like I stand on a lot of big shoulders\,” he said in an interview. “I hope that I’ve brought a little bit of myself to the music.” \nThe Wildmans come from the hills of Floyd\, Virginia\, in the heart of the Appalachian mountain music tradition. From campsite jamming at festivals and fiddler’s conventions and a college level music education comes the foundation for musical exploration that sets this group apart\, taking the audience on a musical journey that reflects the growth and passion of these talented musicians.\nHaving shared the stage with talents such as Bela Fleck\, The Steep Canyon Rangers\, The Steel Wheels\, Danny Knicely\, Sammy Shelor\, Sierra Hull\, Billy Strings\, and more.\, these young musicians are making their way in the American stringband scene.

SUMMARY:Saturday Brunch with StratCat Willie Hayes
DESCRIPTION:StratCat Willie Hayes is an old-school bluesman who has been writing and playing for over fifty years.Some of his earliest influences includedT-Bone Walker\, MikeBloomfield \,B.B. King\, Johnny Winter\, and Duke Robillard.In 1995\, after several years of gigging in local clubs and fronting many cover bands\, his affinity for and love of the blues led to him to form a band that would allow him to focus exclusively on the blues.“Blues Plate Special” was a harmonica driven blues band that allowed him to focus on songwriting\, while covering groups ranging from Little Charlie & the Nightcats to the Paul Butterfield Blues Band.With Blues Plate Special\, he worked hard to keep the blues alive in theSouthernTier of New York\, recording three studio albums along with one live album.In 2019\, in an effort to explore other styles of the blues\, he pulled several players together that had been with him for many of those fifty-plus years to form “StratCatWillie & the Strays”.In 2020\, armed with thirteen original tunes\, he took the Strays into the studio. The result was“On The Prowl”\,which debuted on SiriusXM BLUESVILLE’s “Rack ofBlues” and remained on the Roots Music Report charts for six consecutive months\, finishing #52on theRMR“Top 200 Contemporary Blues Album Chart for 2021”.Following up on that success\, late in 2021 StratCat Willie brought the same players together to record“On A Hot Tin Roof”.Comprised of twelve new original tunes written entirely during the pandemic\, the music not only reflects the darkness of the times\, it also reflects the “Good News of the Blues” and the joy of classic swing/jump blues by tapping into the rich sound of a backing horn section and soulful background vocals.Over his fifty plus year career\, StratCat Willie has shared the stage with many musicians across theUnited States\, fromNew Orleans\, where he has jammed with legends like Walter “Wolfman” Washington\, to San Francisco\, Memphis\, and Nashville\, always looking to meet and play with different folks. StratCat Willie not only enjoys the spontaneity of a good blues jam\, he revels in the opportunity to bring new players together and “make a statement”.Continuing the influences of the old masters\, his swinging\, upbeat style has been described as “always a party”and“uniquely his”\, while always paying tribute to and recognizing the African-American men and women who gave us this amazing art form.

SUMMARY:Todd Hearon
DESCRIPTION:Todd Hearon is an award-winning poet and songwriter\, born in Fort Worth\, Texas\, and raised in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina.

He played bass and guitar for The Spin\, one of the most successful alternative rock bands to come out of the Dallas Deep Ellum scene in the 1990s. After a career spanning six years and four albums\, extensive touring and the cultivation of a broad fan base\, he hung up his musical hat for graduate school in Boston\, earning his Masters and PhD in English and Irish Studies\, and co-founding The Bridge Theater Company\, an independent troupe in Boston’s Theater District.

His poems\, essays and plays have appeared widely in literary journals in this country and abroad.​Music has never been far from his center\, even as he extended his reaches into other art forms. Armed with a 1950 Gibson J-50 named Myrtle\, and a host of new songs that hearken back to his roots in southern folkways and deep-flowing Americana streams\, he’s back\, ready to share his music with the world. Border Radio and Yodelady are his first two studio albums.

SUMMARY:Our Fire Is Stronger Than Your Bombs – War posters by contemporary Ukrainian Illustrators
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition was first installed at Dartmouth College from February 24 – March 31\, 2023 at the one- year anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in an effort to raise awareness about the war raging in the heart of Europe. The exhibition showcases some of the brilliant artworks of contemporary Ukrainian illustrators living and working in Ukraine\, sometimes\, with no power\, water\, cell signal\, or Internet connection. Many of them have long been collaborating with global media\, in particular\, New Yorker\, the Atlantic\, Zeit\, Adweek\, and other outlets. \nA poster\, as a form of fine art blending imagery and text\, is a convenient and laconic statement\, a means of rapid\, shareable response to the urgent events and personal emotions they trigger. In the context of the massive information war\, illustrators have become the voices of the art community\, and their activism adds tangible strength to the ‘cultural troops’ who fight propaganda every day\, broadcasting facts through artistic images and defending the truth as eyewitnesses. \nCo-curators Veronika Yadukha and Hanna Leliv will present a talk on Wednesday\, February 21 from 12:30-1:30 pm in the Winfisky Gallery. This will be followed by a reception from 1:30-3 pm. Gallery talks will take place on from 12- 1 pm on Wednesdays\, February 14\, 28 and March 5. \nThe Winfisky Gallery is open Monday through Friday from 10 am to 4 pm. \nThis event is co-sponsored by Salem State’s Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies (CHGS).
