  • Epilepsy Foundation and Sleepy Man Banjo Boys Team up to Raise Awareness of Seizures
    Epilepsy Foundation And Sleepy Man Banjo Boys Team Up To Raise Awareness Of Seizures New Song “Man in Your Corner” Highlights Strength of Family Support for Sibling with Epilepsy Proceeds from the Single Will Benefit the Epilepsy Foundation Watch The Video Of Sleepy Man Banjo Boys Discussing Their Brother: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rge2rUHIDE&feature=youtu.be September 15, 2014, Landover, MD – The Epilepsy Foundation is proud to announce a partnership with the Sleepy Man Banjo Boys. The young trio of brothers: 17 year-old Tommy Mizzone on guitar, 15 year-old Robbie Mizzone on fiddle and lead vocals, and 12 year-old Jonny Mizzone on banjo have made quite an entrance onto the music scene in a short period of time. Their latest critically acclaimed EP By My Side (released in June) features a song called “Man In Your Corner ” that for the boys, hits very close to home. The song was written by them as a tribute for their younger brother Sam who has epilepsy. Robbie Mizzone shared, “We wrote ‘ Man in Your Corner’ to let Sam know we will always be here for him and to hopefully inspire others to get involved in the fight against epilepsy. We are really excited to be working with the Epilepsy Foundation in support of our brother and others impacted by seizures.” Sam Mizzone lives with epilepsy, but after trying numerous kinds of treatment found control for his seizures through a form of the ketogenic diet. This special high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet, prescribed and monitored by a physician and nutritionist, can help control seizures in some people.

  • Tale Feathers
    Tale Feathers By Michael "Hawkeye" Herman The purpose of these memoirs is to shed a bit of light on the human side of many deceased blues artists who have become legendary figures, and as a result, distant icons to younger/newer enthusiasts. The new generation is left with photographs, records, and academic biographies, but little knowledge of what these "old guys/gals" were like as people. I aim to describe how they appeared and sounded, offstage and on, to make these heroes more understandable as people who expressed their human experience through their music. I. We were standing in line to purchase tickets for a concert that was going to begin in ten minutes and looked like it was going to sell out. The year was 1968, Thanksgiving weekend in Berkeley, CA. The large Zellerbach Concert Hall on the UC Berekely campus, capacity 2,200, was not the most intimate place to hear acoustic country blues, but this promised to be a special night. My ladyfriend and I were starting to get anxious about getting in to the show. Lots of advance ticket holders were showing up and being ushered to their seats. The line we were in was moving much too slow. "If I'd only bought tickets in advance, I wouldn't be waiting like this. If I'd only had the money in advance, we would already be inside." Finally, we got to the ticket window. The woman selling tickets said what I didn't want to hear, "Sorry, we're sold out!" Pause. My heart sank.

  • The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We
    The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We hereby approve the Dissertation of Shirley Wade McLoughlin Candidate for the Degree: Doctor of Philosophy __________________________________________ Director Denise Taliaferro Baszile ___________________________________________ Reader Dennis Carlson ___________________________________________ Reader Richard Quantz ___________________________________________ Reader Tammy Kernodle ____________________________________________ Graduate School Representative Barbara Hueberger Abstract A PEDAGOGY OF THE BLUES By Shirley Wade McLoughlin This dissertation presents the conceptualization of a pedagogy of the blues as an alternative to the techno-rational approach to education. This conceptualization is derived from the blues metaphor in which distinct themes are identified and utilized in formulating and enacting a pedagogy of the blues. This pedagogy is presented as an embodied art of teaching whereby there is recovery of the self by the teacher and student, as opposed to the loss of self so prevalent in present day approaches to schooling. The author grounds this work in the powerful early blues of African Americans, identifying specific themes representative of the blues metaphor that reverberate in the work of early blues artists. Starting with the historical roots of the blues, examining the texts of the blues and the lifestyles of early blues singers that embodied the blues, the author traces common themes from these sources. Next, the author presents the evolvement of the

  • Sleepy Man Banjo Boys Release First Ever Music Video for "Same Same Stars"
    Sleepy Man Banjo Boys Release First Ever Music Video For "Same Same Stars" New York, NY --- October 8, 2014 --- The next generation of roots music, the Sleepy Man Banjo Boys have just released their first ever music video for "Same Same Stars." The song is from the band's new EP titled By My Side. It's a special song for the boys, inspired by the emotions of being separated from those we love. You can watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JDaNYDQv7Y&mc_cid=4ade2b22b4&mc_eid =3923dafca2 Over the past several months, the band has performed at Stagecoach and at The New Orleans Jazz Festival with the The Times-Picayune proclaiming: “The players' talents shined, commanding attention to the brothers' actual musical skills despite the potentially overwhelming level of cuteness proffered by Jonny, a pint-sized banjo prodigy in a Kangol-style cap, and the curiosity factor of three Jersey kids playing bluegrass tunes..." The boys also dropped by Jimmy Kimmel Live! to perform the title track from their upcoming EP. You can watch a performance of “By My Side” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74baaDxJsGs The young trio of brothers: 17 year-old Tommy Mizzone on guitar, 15 year-old Robbie Mizzone on fiddle and lead vocals, and 12 year-old Jonny Mizzone on banjo have made quite an entrance onto the music scene. Their YouTube videos have now eclipsed over 22 million views . (YouTube.com/sleepymanbanjoboys) The band has also appeared on the stages of the Grand Ole Opry , Ryman Auditorium , Newport Folk Festival , and Carnegie Hall and their popularity continues to accelerate.
