Her last two albums, Black Cadillac (2006) and The List (2009), were both for listening stations that explore nominated for GRAMMY Awards; The List—an exploration of essential songs as selected song selections mapping musical and given to Rosanne by her father, Johnny Cash—was also named Album of the Year by the tastes and memories of our Americana Music Association. In addition, her best-selling 2010 memoir, Composed, was audience. Before the performance described by the Chicago Tribune as “one of the best accounts of an American life you will and during intermission. likely ever read.” Cash, who has charted 21 Top 40 country singles, including 11 Number Ones, wrote all of the new album’s songs with her longtime collaborator (and husband) John Leventhal, who also served as producer, arranger, and guitarist. Featuring a long list of guests—from young MEDIA SPONSORS: guns like John Paul White (The Civil Wars) and Derek Trucks to such legends as John Prine and Tony Joe White—The River and The Thread is a kaleidoscopic examination of the geographic, emotional, and historic landscape of the American South. The album’s unique sound, which draws from country, blues, gospel, and rock, reflects the soulful mix of music that traces its history to the region. “When we started forming the idea for this record,” says Cash, “it felt like it was going to be the third part of a trilogy—with Black Cadillac mapping out a territory of mourning and loss and then The List, celebrating my family’s musical legacy. I feel this record ties past and present together through all those people and places in the South I knew and thought I had left behind.” MESSAGE FROM THE CENTER: “Our longing makes us human, and makes us reach. That’s good.”—Rosanne Cash Here at the Center, we overwhelmingly agree with that sentiment. In fact, it’s a fairly apt encapsulation of what drives us, what motivates us and what attracts us to artists, performers, writers—creators and makers of all kinds. We talk often about the power and potential that comes from leaning forward—toward one another, toward ideas, into new landscapes of thought and emotion. Rosanne Cash has made a career out of leaning forward. Her songwriting is poetic in impulse and wide-ranging in scope. She’s mapped stories of mourning and loss, of legacy and hope and now, in her latest album, created a map of people and places and moments in time from the American south, which provided inspiration for The River and the Thread. You’ll read more about the fascinating journey that fueled the creation of this lush and immersive album in the program notes that follow. Tonight, you’ll hear the stories for yourself, brought to vivid and poignant life here in this The literal journey toward The River and The Thread began when moment by a performer of exceptional range and exceptional Arkansas State University contacted Cash about their interest in depth. purchasing her father’s boyhood home in Dyess, Arkansas. A series of benefit concerts to get the project started featured artists like Inside each of us is a map of experience, of memory, longing, George Jones, Kris Kristofferson, Dierks Bentley, Willie Nelson and expectation, dreams and desires. For most of us that map of the Civil Wars. our lives is accentuated by a personal soundtrack. Music is rife with the ability to unveil memories, weaving the stories While helping with the purchase and renovation of the Dyess of our own lives and lives of others through our experiences-- house, Cash and Leventhal took several extended trips through the much like a river weaves itself through a landscape or a Southern states—visiting William Faulkner’s house; Dockery Farms, thread weaves through the warp and weft of a tapestry. the plantation where Howlin’ Wolf and Charley Patton worked and sang; Natchez and the blues trail. “The Thread” in the album’s title How fortunate we are to be in the presence of an artist comes from Cash’s friend Natalie Chanin, a master seamstress in who understands this so well, who inhabits her music so Florence, Alabama. “Natalie was teaching me to sew,” says Cash, thoroughly and shares with us so generously. “and she said, ‘You have to learn to love the thread,’ in this beautiful accent, and it hit me as an enormous metaphor.” The line appears in Welcome Rosanne. We’re ready to take this journey with you. the album’s opener, “A Feather’s Not a Bird,” a deeply swampy shuffle which Cash describes as “a mini-travelogue of the South, and of the soul.” These journeys repeatedly took them through Memphis, the city of Cash’s birth and a place that had a profound impact on the album’s direction. They visited the studio of Sun Records, and watched their son strum a guitar in the same room where her father cut his first record. “The connection to Memphis is powerful and deep” says Cash. As the themes and subjects of The River and The Thread emerged, Cash gradually envisioned how she wanted to connect the dots into a cohesive work, connecting her own story to the rich history of a region. “I guess I weave in and out of these songs, in a way,” she says. “I don’t think I had a complete map of it, but John really became a guide. We would write something and say, ‘This is this part of the geography, both emotional and physical.’” Rosanne Cash acknowledges that, even with fifteen albums and four books behind her, it was difficult to start writing songs again after spending several years immersed in the masterful compositions featured on The List. “You cannot keep that in your mind, except as an inspiration, a standard to aspire to,” she says. “To say, ‘I’m going to write a song as great as “Take These Chains”’—you’re not! So the only way to not get dismantled by that is to stay connected to your own muse, and immerse yourself completely in what you’re doing so appears on Rosanne’s current recording The River & he Thread, as it can be as rich and authentic as it can possibly be. That’s all you can well as the recent acclaimed collaboration between Nora Jones and hope for.” Green Day’s Billy Joe Armstrong, For Everly.

    2 3 4 5 Nadia Mladjao est née au sein d'une famille de dix enfants d'origine comorienne, d'un père pompier dans l'armée de l'air française, alors affecté à la base aérienne d'Istres. Engagée à l'âge de 17 ans par une agence de mannequins, elle part pour New York deux ans plus tard. C'est durant son séjour à New York qu'elle attrape « le virus de la musique » en écoutant Talkin' 'Bout a Revolution de Tracy Chapman, qui lui donne envie de tenter sa chance comme chanteuse. Elle commence à l'époque à prendre des cours de chant et à écrire des textes. Lassée de « faire le cintre », elle arrête sa carrière de mannequin et, après des rencontres infructueuses avec des producteurs aux États-Unis, rentre en France et débute en 2008 sur les scènes parisiennes. À l'occasion d'un passage au Sentier des Halles, elle fait la connaissance de Malik Ndiaye, déjà producteur d'Ayọ et Grace. Ayant choisi comme nom de scène Imany — signifiant « ma foi » ou « mon espoir » en arabe — elle écrit ses chansons en anglais, langue qui, pour l'écriture, lui vient « plus naturellement » que le français. Elle débute en faisant les premières parties d'artistes comme Angie Stone, Wasis Diop, Anthony Hamilton, Hocus Pocus, Sly Johnson et Ben l'Oncle Soul. En mai 2011 sort son premier album, The Shape of a Broken Heart, dont les ventes lui valent d'être certifié disque de platine, notamment grâce au succès de son premier single, You will never know.

    New from THE HOLMES BROTHERS ! brotherhood" “Timeless, deeply soulful and uplifting gospel-drenched blues, street corner doo-wop, ballads, R&B, country and funk.” –NEW YORK TIMES “Fervent, inspired and joyful blues, R&B, soul, roadhouse rock and gospel… beautiful harmonies, true magic.” –NPR Over the course of a 30-year career, with ten acclaimed albums and thousands of live performances, revered roots trio The Holmes Brothers—Wendell Holmes on guitar, piano and vocals, Sherman Holmes on bass and vocals, brother-in-spirit Popsy Holmes on drums and vocals—have garnered heaps of critical praise and countless loyal fans. They have created a timeless blend of blues, soul, funk and country, highlighted by their heavenly gospel-inspired vocal harmonies. Brotherhood is a testament to the uplifting musical The band’s new Alligator Records album, Brotherhood, power that comes from the close-knit, fraternally produced by Glenn Patscha (Ollabelle, Marc Cohn), telepathic relationship of The Holmes Brothers. The Chris Bruce (Me’Shell NdegéOcello, Seal) and Hector album is full of deeply soulful performances, from the Castillo (Brazilian Girls, David Bowie), is another rocking Wendell original Stayed At The Party to the stellar chapter in their storied and still-evolving sweet harmonies of Ted Hawkins’ I Gave Up All I Had, history. It’s their most bluesy album yet, with the to Sherman’s intense Passing Through to the doo-wop band digging deep to deliver roadhouse wisdom, late- splendor of Popsy’s falsetto vocals on the Stax classic My night doo wop, soulful R&B and a proto-rock ‘n’ roll Kind Of Girl.

  • Rodney Crowell
    As a self-employed performer and small business owner, I am unable to provide my traveling companions and collaborators with group health insurance. I simply can’t afford it. In fact, very few touring entities can. With 56,000 people making their living in the music business, 76% of us are self-employed, which leaves a large portion of our industry uninsured. When I ask most Nashville music industry insiders how much they know about Music Health Alliance, more often than not their answer is “not very much.” Most are surprised to learn that since the not-for-profit MHA was founded in 2013, over 5,600 people who earn their living in the music business have been connected by Music Health Alliance to life-changing healthcare resources, enabling access to doctors, medicine, health insurance and financial assistance in times of medical emergency. To date MHA has saved over $16 million dollars in medical bills and successfully reduced premiums. And these services are rendered by MHA entirely for free. If ever there was a friend to the middle class working musician and, for that matter, members of the day-to-day music business workforce, it is Music Health Alliance. The testimonials I’ve been privileged to hear in which MHA has walked uninsured music professionals through unimaginable health problems — brain tumors, ovarian cancer, end of life care, heart and liver transplants, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson’s Disease to helping working musicians and their families navigate the murky waters of health insurance — have made me a staunch supporter. While shooting a music video in downtown Nashville, the thought occurred to me that on weekends there must be hundreds of musicians working in the clubs lining either side of Broadway.

  • How Civil Wars End Lise Morjé Howard and the International System, Norms, and the Alexandra Stark Role of External Actors
    How Civil Wars End How Civil Wars End Lise Morjé Howard and The International System, Norms, and the Alexandra Stark Role of External Actors Historically, civil wars were fought to the ªnish, with the complete military defeat of the losing side.1 But in the 1990s, as this article demonstrates, civil wars were more likely to end in negotiated settlements rather than victory by one side. Why? We argue that civil wars began to end in this historically distinct manner because of a fundamental change in the international norms of conºict resolution—namely, the rise of a norm of negotiated settlement. This norm arose in the context of a new international political environment dominated by U.S. unipolarity and liberal democracy; the ideas and principles of the liberal order undermined the acceptability of military victory. In the post–September 11 environment characterized by the war on terror- ism, however, the norm of negotiated settlement has been challenged by countervailing notions of appropriateness—namely, stabilization over democ- ratization and non-negotiation with terrorist groups. As a result, civil wars are ending less frequently, and less often in negotiation. The dominant inter- national political environment shapes norms of conºict resolution, which, in turn, inºuence how civil wars end. Lise Morjé Howard is Associate Professor and Alexandra Stark is a Ph.D. candidate, both in the Depart- ment of Government at Georgetown University.
