The News Letter September 2016 roundhillcommunitychurch.org Round Hill Round Hill Community Church Community Church @395roundhill The News Letter September 2016 PASTOR’S MESSAGE SEPTEMBER EVENTS On many summer nights of my RALLY SUNDAY childhood, my family and I would September 11 drag some of the patio furniture out to the middle of the open field next Worship at 10:00 a.m. to our home, eat dinner, and talk Picnic and Fun at 11:00 a.m. well past midnight. Those late night conversations under the stars often drifted in the direction of big questions. What’s out there in the star speckled night sky? What in the world are we up to? What makes life worth living? During this past year the Center for Faith Devel- opment at Round Hill Community Church began to wonder how we might form a faith formation pro- gram around one of these big life questions. In that process of discernment, we discovered that the Center for Faith and Culture at Yale University developed for Games Bouncy Castle its students a new class entitled “Life Worth Living.” Round Hill Express Train Rides That captured our imagination: what would it mean Ben’s Ice Cream Truck to examine this theme as a congregation that lives at the intersection of faith and culture? And to do so for an entire year! To design the program, we enlisted the counsel of John Roberto, an outstanding educator who helps communities across the nation with these kinds of endeavors. So this year we will have an opportunity to learn and grow in faith together by participating in a unique educational program that has been designed especially for Round Hill Community Church. Each month we will focus on a theme to help us explore the larger question of a life worth living. Our focus for September will be on gratitude, and in addition to the Sunday sermons on this theme, you can visit our website, roundhillcommunitychurch.org, to access music, book suggestions, artwork, spiritual practices, and readings to enhance our learning. continued on page 2 PASTOR’S MESSAGE CENTER FOR FAITH DEVELOPMENT continued from page 1 A Life Worth Living We are thrilled with the launch of this year’s faith formation program, A Life Worth Living, and I look “In all affairs it’s a healthy thing now and then to hang forward to learning and growing alongside you as a question mark on the things you have long taken for we delve into this big theme.

Booking: 724-624-4594 [email protected] http://www.danbubien.com/ What You Get…… Emotionally evoking songs driven by the dynamic guitar playing duo of Dan Bubien and Shawn Mazzei, along with Bubien’s soulful gritty vocals. Their signature sound is highlighted by the precision playing and deep toned-full sound of drummer Mark Pollera and glued together by Christian Caputo’s steady, groove oriented bass playing. “Stunningly written and well crafted songs. Bubien squeezes every emotion from a song with his voice and guitar. As for the band, well they don't get any better than this!” “Bubien's vocals growl and rise and fall as if he is howling at a full moon.” “Bubien certainly possesses an extraordinary voice that has a power but also a more soulful side that lends itself well to all that is required to send each and every song to dizzying heights!” “Bubien wailing as if his life depended on it stripping back his soul to allow his guitar to cut even deeper as it weeps and moans with a thousand stories. With every note and chord there are tears and pain that we can feel, Perfect Blues!!!” Peter Merrett, PBS106.7, Melbourne, Australia Quotables Bubien’s exquisite vocals and stunning slide guitar combines Glorious Soul drenched Blues that en- velops the listener in a cocoon of aural delight, and Hard rockin' Rock/Blues that drives along with a take no prisoner attitude that is full of swagger and bravado.” Peter Merrett, PBS106.7, Melbourne, Australia “Fine musicians, powerful songs, and albums of material that have a real listenability.

  • Phoenix Bues Society
    PHOENIX BLUES SOCIETY – BLUESBYTES It’s been eleven years since James Armstrong’s last release, an eternity in the music business. When he burst onto the scene in the mid 90’s with his debut recording for Hightone Records, he seemed destined to be the “next big thing,” but they don’t call this music the blues for nothing. Armstrong barely survived a robbery in 1997, in which he was nearly stabbed to death and his son was nearly killed. The stabbing affected his guitar playing, he compensated by learning to play slide guitar, but his songwriting and vocal talents were unscathed as he went on to record two fine subsequent albums for Hightone in 1998 and 2000. Eleven years later, Armstrong is now with CatFood Records, and his latest release, Blues At The Border, shows that his absence has been our loss. He’s still writing some impressive tunes. The humorous title track examines the difficulties musicians face traveling by air and overseas and was co-written with Armstrong by his girlfriend, Madonna Hamel, who lives in Canada. He also penned a few more conventional blues titles, including “Nothing Left To Say” and “Devil’s Candy.” “Young Man With The Blues” is a moving tribute to his father, a jazz musician who raised Armstrong as a single parent and gave him his love for music. Armstrong also covers a pair of tunes from Dave Steen (“High Maintenance Woman,” featuring a cameo from Hamel, and “Good Man, Bad Thing.”), along with a trio of songs from Catfood’s all-around man, bass player/producer Bob Trenchard (the cool blues shuffle, “Long Black Car,” “Somebody Got To Pay,” co-written by Sandy Carroll, and “Baby Can You Hear Me,” co-written by Kay Kay Greenwade).

  • Blues Bytes -- Graham Clarke
    Graham Clarke June 21, 2019 Friday Blues Fix Blog Steve Conn has collaborated with a variety of musicians over his career, frequently with Sonny Landreth (appearing on Landreth’s recent Grammy-nominated effort Recorded Live In Lafayette). He’s also toured with Albert King, played accordion for Levon Helm, and even appeared on The Tonight Show with Shelby Lynne. A Louisiana native, Conn played small clubs in Louisiana, before moving to Colorado, where he formed the band Gris Gris. He also spent time in Los Angeles in that city’s music scene, returning to Colorado, where he was musical director for the NPR show eTown, before settling near Nashville. Conn plays keyboards, accordion, and alto sax, his singing voice is vulnerable and supremely soulful, reminiscent at times of Boz Scaggs, and he’s one heck of a songwriter. All of these talents can be savored on his latest, fifth overall, release, Flesh and Bone (Not Really Records). The opening track, “Famous,” is a New Orleans-styled track that finds Conn reflecting on his life, wanting the accolades he thinks he’s earned before it’s too late. Next is the title track, which is a jazzy shuffle that has a mid-career Miles Davis feel, followed by “Doing The Best That I Can” takes a regretful look at a broken relationship, and “You Don’t Know,” which is hopeful for better days ahead. “Annalee” is a sentimental ballad about a lost love from long ago, a theme that’s revisited later by another exceptional ballad, “Forever Seventeen,” a tune that will touch anyone who looks back and ponders what might have been.
