Multiple Grammy-Winning Recording Artist Rob Thomas Is Coming to the Chumash Casino Resort Contact: Caitlyn Baker [email protected] (805) 944-7780 (c) (805) 350-7913 (o) ROB THOMAS TO PERFORM AT CHUMASH CASINO RESORT SANTA YNEZ, CA – March 1, 2019 – Multiple Grammy-winning recording artist Rob Thomas is coming to the Chumash Casino Resort’s Samala Showroom for an electrifying live performance at 8 p.m. on Friday, March 29, 2019. Tickets for the show are $99, $119, $129, $139 & $149. This special performance will benefit Sidewalk Angels Foundation, the nonprofit organization founded by Marisol and Rob Thomas. The New York based foundation is dedicated to providing critically needed funds and support to over 20 no-kill animal shelters and animal rescues, across the country, that help to fight for the rights and fair treatment of those with no voice. Thomas is one of modern music’s most compelling and commercially successful artists. For 20 years, he has been the front man and primary composer for Matchbox Twenty, leading the band to multiplatinum success over the course of four albums and a string of No. 1 hits that include “Push,” “3AM,” “Bent,” “If You’re Gone,” and “Unwell.” Thomas’ first two solo albums, 2005’s platinum-certified No. 1 album “…Something to Be” and 2009’s “Cradlesong,” generated the hit singles “Lonely No More,” “This is How A Heart Breaks,” “Her Diamonds” and “Someday.” Thomas made history with “…Something to Be” as having the first album by a male artist from a rock or pop group to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 since the chart had debuted. With “Cradlesong,” he made history once again as the only male artist with multiple No. 1 hits at Adult Top 40, tying Pink with most No. 1s by a solo artist in the chart’s history. His most recent release, 2015’s “The Great Unknown,” was praised by the likes of Rolling Stone, which celebrated Thomas as “still the consummate pop-rock craftsman who has been making it all sound so smooth for years.” Throughout his career, Thomas has collaborated with iconic artists, including Mick Jagger on the No. 1 single “Disease,” Willie Nelson and Santana, with the latter resulting in 1999’s “Smooth” — the Latin-tinged blockbuster that earned Thomas three Grammy Awards and spent 12 weeks atop Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. It was also named the No. 2 Hot 100 Song of All Time and No. 1 of the Rock Era. Overall, Thomas has contributed to sales of more than 80 million records. In 2004, he was the first-ever honoree of the Songwriters Hall of Fame’s prestigious Hal David Starlight Award, created to recognize a composer in the early years of his or her career who has already made a lasting impact. He has won numerous BMI and ASCAP Awards, and has earned the Songwriter of the Year crown from both Billboard and BMI. Thomas is credited for being an electrifying live performer, drawing fans of all ages to Matchbox Twenty’s concerts as well as to his solo shows around the globe. His 2016 critically acclaimed summer solo tour featured an innovative industry-first hologram karaoke backstage experience, where radio station winners and VIPs got a one-of-a-kind interactive “Hollagram” duet. In 2017, Thomas and his band Matchbox Twenty toured to celebrate their 20th anniversary of their first album, the diamond award-winning “Yourself or Someone Like You.” “A Brief History of Everything Tour” was played to sold-out venues around the world. On February 20th, Rob released his new single, “One Less Day (Dying Young)” worldwide and his upcoming album Chip Tooth Smile is out everywhere on April 26th. Don’t miss an opportunity to see this legendary performer live in one of the most popular music venues in Santa Barbara County. Located on Highway 246 in Santa Ynez, California, the Chumash Casino Resort is an age 21-and-older venue. Tickets for all events are available at The CLUB at Chumash or online at www.chumashcasino.com. .

    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • For Immediate Release
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MAY 18, 2012 MATCHBOX TWENTY HEAD “NORTH” WITH NEW ALBUM; MULTI-PLATINUM POP-ROCK SUPERSTARS RETURN ON FIRST ALL-NEW COLLECTION IN TEN YEARS; ALBUM TO BE HERALDED BY THRILLING NEW SINGLE; “SHE’S SO MEAN” SET TO IMPACT IN MID-JUNE; “NORTH” ARRIVES EVERYWHERE ON SEPTEMBER 4TH Atlantic recording group Matchbox Twenty has announced the release of their hugely-anticipated new album scheduled to arrive everywhere on September 4th. “NORTH” marks Matchbox Twenty’s fourth full-length studio recording and first all-new album in a decade. “The title refers to us finding our way,” says Matchbox Twenty’s Paul Doucette. “We went into this record with a lot of material. Many different songs that could have taken us in many different directions. It sort of overwhelmed us for a bit. But, at a certain point, we figured it out. We figured out where North was.” The album’s electrifying first single, “She’s So Mean,” is slated to be unveiled in June. “NORTH” sees Matchbox Twenty driving their pop-rock sound further forward; magnifying the indelible melodies, crafty lyricism, and glorious hooks that have always defined their multi-platinum body of work. The band—Rob Thomas, Paul Doucette, Kyle Cook and Brian Yale,– lived together last Summer in a house in Nashville where they all collaborated on the new material before once again joining forces with the Grammy Award-winning producer Matt Serletic at his Emblem Studios in Calabasas, California. The result of their labors stands among Matchbox Twenty’s finest, with songs like “Overjoyed” and “Put Your Hands Up” marked by the band’s instantly identifiable sonic approach and unadulterated high spirits.
