Seattle Symphony, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Russell IMMEDIATE RELEASE MAY 11, 2018 SEATTLE SYMPHONY, MACKLEMORE & RYAN LEWIS, RUSSELL WILSON AND CIARA BENEFIT CONCERT RAISES NEARLY $1.4 MILLION TO SUPPORT YOUTH, EQUITY AND ACCESS TO THE ARTS Pictured L to R: Macklemore, Ciara, Seattle Symphony Associate Conductor Pablo Rus Broseta, Russell Wilson and Ryan Lewis.

This special evening was hosted by Russell Wilson, conducted by Seattle Symphony Associate Conductor Pablo Rus Broseta, and featured individual and collaborative performances by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Ciara, and the Seattle Symphony. Funds raised from the benefit concert totaled nearly $1.4 million. All proceeds from the evening will directly support initiatives and programs of the Macklemore & Ryan Lewis Equity Fund, Russell and Ciara’s Why Not You Foundation, and the Seattle Symphony. Donations can still be made online at seattlesymphony.org/yea. The evening opened with Seattle Symphony Associate Conductor Pablo Rus Broseta leading the orchestra in a performance of Bernstein’s Overture to Candide. Seattle Symphony Board Chair Leslie Jackson Chihuly and Larry Estrada, Board member of the Seattle Symphony and the Why Not You Foundation, welcomed the audience and explained the cause that united the three organizations. “Equity means that everyone is on an equal playing field — it’s seeing who’s trying to get in the room but can’t. Equity cannot be achieved without access and all three groups tonight are doing very important work to ensure the youth in our community have transformative opportunities,” said Larry Estrada. Chihuly added, “At the core of the Seattle Symphony is our mission — one that is universal: to unleash the power of music, bring people together, and lift the human spirit. We all believe that music has the power to transform lives and we’re so thrilled that tonight’s concert brought us together for a night of incredible music while raising funds to empower our youth.” Seattle Seahawks Quarterback Russell Wilson hosted the evening and introduced performances by current and past participants who have benefited from each organization’s respective programs. Tah-jae, a sophomore at Seattle’s Franklin High School and mentee of Friends of the Children, performed a spoken word piece, titled after Russell and Ciara’s foundation, “Why Not You.” The Why Not You Foundation partners with organizations to inspire and empower children so they reach their highest potential. “We are so proud of our work in the community through the Why Not You Foundation and are always looking for ways to collaborate with innovative partners such as the Seattle Symphony and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis to have a greater impact,” said Russell Wilson. “Music is so powerful and inspiring,” says Ciara. “Just as we look to the gym for our physical well-being, music and the arts is an avenue for mental and emotional wellness and healing. We are truly grateful for our community’s support and excited that the funds raised tonight will directly benefit the lives of kids throughout our region.” Third through fifth grade Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary School students who have participated in the Seattle Symphony’s Link Up program joined the orchestra on stage as the audience sang along to Beethoven’s famous Ode to Joy. Link Up is a multi-year curriculum that encourages young students to fully participate in the music-making process. Taught by classroom teachers, music teachers or Seattle Symphony teaching artists, Link Up culminates in a performance at Benaroya Hall where students sing and play along with the orchestra. Glasshouse, aspiring teen hip-hop artists from The Residency, performed original songs on the program. The Residency is a program founded by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis that provides teens with tools they need to strengthen songwriting, performance techniques and beat production. Two alumni from the program, Talaya Logan and Aurelio Valdez, joined Russell to share how their experience in The Residency helped their growth as individuals and young artists. A powerful poetry reading by The Residency participant Lashaunycee O’Cain followed. "I was fortunate growing up to have access to equipment and opportunities that helped me find my passion in music. We wanted to do whatever we can to give young people great opportunities, so they can discover their passions," said Ryan Lewis. "Seattle has always been a place that values creativity and culture. Creating music and arts opportunities for youth is an important way to continue that tradition." “As our city grows and changes, it's so important for us to be supporting and investing in young people. If we want this generation and the next generation to be healthy, fulfilled and to make progress, then we need to give young people the space and platform to express themselves,” added Macklemore. After intermission students from the Garfield High School Orchestra joined the Seattle Symphony side- by-side on stage, performing “Same Love” and “Otherside” with Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, with special appearances by Mary Lambert and Eric Nally. The program concluded with collaborative performances by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Ciara and the Seattle Symphony. This unique event sprang from conversations between the artists and organizations as they explored fun and creative ways to come together in an effort to inspire and engage the greater community to support critical programs that are focused on youth, equity and access to the arts. This special musical evening was presented by Alaska Airlines, with additional sponsors including T- Mobile, Aegis Living, Safeway, Expedia, Larry & Brittni Estrada, Goldman Sachs, Linda Rae Hickey & Mark Grant, Jeffrey & Grace Roh, Intuitivex and Wheels Up. WHY NOT YOU FOUNDATION On a mission to empower change in the world, one individual and one child at a time, the Why Not You Foundation supports programs and organizations with specific focuses on poverty, education, and health and wellness. The Foundation was founded by Seattle Seahawk Quarterback Russell Wilson who was challenged by his late father to always approach life with an anything is possible (“Why not you?”) attitude. Russell’s wife, Ciara, recently joined the Foundation to lead initiatives specifically focused on empowering girls and young women in all aspects of their lives.

MACKLEMORE & RYAN LEWIS EQUITY FUND Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are committed to using their resources and platform to advance issues of racial and social justice and through the M&RL Equity Fund, they are partnering with organizations dedicated to these values. In 2015, along with MoPOP and Arts Corps, they founded The Residency, an innovative program that provides access and opportunity to young aspiring hip-hop artists in the greater Seattle area.

  • RHCP AU2019 Inc ADL
    Presented by Live Nation, Triple M and Mix 94.5 The summer forecast is hot, red hot…!! RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS Australia 2019 MELBOURNE, AU (November 16, 2018) - Live Nation is thrilled to announce that RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS will make a long-overdue and highly-anticipated return Down Under in 2019. Playing their first Australian headline tour in twelve long years, Red Hot Chili Peppers will bring their unique funk-rock sound and high-energy performances to Australia and New Zealand for arena and outdoor shows this coming February - March. Ticket pre-sales begin next week. After sold-out US and European tours during 2017 and 2018 the Peppers most recently undertook three massive headline shows at Lollapalooza South America. The Peppers are one of the most successful acts in rock history, often performing in front of stadium and festival audiences in excess of 100,000. The Australian tour will start with a rare intimate show at Hobart’s Derwent Entertainment Centre - the first time the LA-based band will have travelled to Tasmania. Following their one-off Tassie show, Red Hot Chili Peppers will play arenas in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne; open air shows at Hope Estate in the Hunter Valley and at A Day on The Green at Mt Duneed Estate, Geelong, before their final Australian show at Perth’s NIB Stadium.

  • Great by Choice Γçô Thriving in Uncertainty.Pdf
    UNCERTAINTY, CHAOS, AND LUCK- WHY SOME THRIVE DESPITE THEM ALL AUTHOR OF GOOD TO GREAT JL^U^O i>vJ J USA $29.99 THE NEW QUESTION Ten years after the worldwide bestseller 6000* to Great, Jim Collins returns with another groundbreaking work, this timeto ask: Why do some companiesthrive in uncertainty, even chaos, and others do not? Based on nine years of research, buttressed by rigorous analysis and infused with engaging stories, Collinsand his colleague, Morten Hansen, enumerate the principles for building a truly great enterprise in unpredictable, tumultuous, and fast-moving times. THE NEW STUDY Great by Choice distinguishes itself from Collins's prior work by its focus not just on performance, but also on the type of unstable environments faced by leaders today. With a team of more than twenty researchers, Collins and Hansen studied companies that rose to greatness- beating their industry indexes by a minimum of ten times over fifteen years-in environments characterized by big forces and rapid shifts that leaders could not predict or control. The research team then contrasted these "10X companies" to a carefullyselected set of comparison com panies that failed to achieve greatness insimilarly extreme environments. THE NEW FINDINGS The study results were full of provocative surprises. Such as: • The best leaders were not more risktaking, more visionary, and more creative than the comparisons; they were more disciplined, more empirical, and more paranoid. • Innovation by itself turns out not to be the trump card in a cha otic and uncertain world; more important is the ability to scale innovation, to blend creativity with discipline.

  • Kiedis's Scar Tissue
    Indo-Pacific Journal of Phenomenology Volume 18, Special Edition August 2018 Page 1 of 11 ISSN (online) : 14451445----7377737773777377 IISSNSSN (print) : 20792079----7222722272227222 Kiedis’s Scar Tissue: A Phenomenological Psychobiography by Tatiana Latilla and Sherianne Kramer Abstract This study uses a psychobiographic research method as a means to explore and describe the life of lyricist, Anthony Kiedis. Kiedis’s history is investigated through the lens of Erik Erikson’s theory of identity development. Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) as a means to platform the psychobiographic methodology, this study explores Kiedis’s creativity and writing as intrinsic aspects of his identity. In addition, the analysis attempts to understand how Kiedis resolved his identity crises, and puts forward a presentation of Kiedis’s subjective experiences of his identity development. Through this in-depth analysis, the study concludes that Kiedis is engaged in an infinite moratorium, and in so doing demonstrates the value of using the combined methods of IPA and psychobiography to understand the human condition. Psychobiography and phenomenology have the same Anthony Kiedis is the lead singer, lyricist and frontman underlying intention: the qualitative study of individual of the band the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Kiedis’s lyrics, life experience (Leedy & Ormrod, 2010; Schultz, 2005; starting from his first album in 1984, demonstrate a Willig, 2008). With both these research methodologies dedication to the punk/funk revolution of the 1970s the researcher attempts to understand the “inner essence” and 1980s (Moon, 2002; Red Hot Chili Peppers, 1984). of individuals and how they make sense of and seek From his fifth album – Blood Sugar Sex Magik – and meaning in their lived experiences (Dyson & Brown, onwards, Kiedis’s lyrics veer from the rebellious and 2006; Smith, Flowers, & Larkin, 2009).
