A local woman who has been climbing the ladder in the music world has two im- portant “gigs” this month, and she’ll be performing her original tune, “Columbus County,” at an Al Green con- cert in front of 3,000 people. Jo Gore and The Alterna- tive recently performed on the UNC-TV show, “Carolina Now,” and the band’s segment will air on Wednesday, Sept. 12 at 7:30 p.m. Gore, a vocalist, and acous- tic guitarist Bo Lankenau will open the Al Green concert at the Durham Performing Arts Center on Sept. 19. Gore will pay homage to her roots by singing “Columbus County,” which will be featured on her upcoming release, “The Herstory of Josephine Gore/ Return of the Articulate Kins- man Vol.1.” (See lyrics in ac- companying article) The Jo Gore and The Alter- native full band album release show will be held the next day (Thursday, Sept. 20) at the Cat’s Cradle in Carrboro. Crystal (Jo) Gore grew up in the Spring Hill community just outside of Whiteville. She is the daughter of Vondrena and the late A.K. Gore.

Sixth-grader Johnna-Bryanté Rayphen Ward, 11, is Columbus Charter Middle School’s Student of the Week. The daughter of Melissa Ellen Ward, she said the best thing about her school is the three-week break each fall and spring. “I get more time to spend with my family.” Science and math are her favorite classes. “Science is interesting because I learn how things work. Math is like solving puzzles.” She takes lyri- cal and pointé dance, plays guitar and is involved with mission work in her church. The thing she’s most proud of is being awarded the Silver Eagle Award during her frst year of church youth. She said the two most interesting things about her are her full name and her imagination.
