Curley Maple Athens, Georgia Curley Maple has elicited appreciation from fans of all styles of acoustic music for its inspired embrace of traditional fiddle music and contemporary style. The renowned and creative playing of ace fiddler David Blackmon is the driving force behind Curley Maple. He is complemented by the tight harmony singing of Noel Blackmon and Christian Lopez and their guitars, mandolins, and bouzouki, and upright bassist Chris Enghauser's prodigious skills and groove. An unconventional "trad. band," Curley Maple's figures drone and swirl, nodding to both old and new and branching across time with a blend of old-time and Celtic fiddle tunes, songs, ballads and Original compositions. Old Time Ballad Singers Sisters Mary Lomax and Bonnie Loggins (Alto, GA) have sung all their lives, but their appearance at last year's North Georgia Folk Festival was their first ever performance before a large audience. Octogenarian Mary Lomax of Habersham County is arguably the finest traditional Appalachian ballad singer to emerge in the 21st century. Her repertoire-- learned mostly from her father, Lemuel Payne, at a time when singing old songs at the fireside after a day's work was the main entertainment--includes many ballads from the British tradition (including 10 Child ballads!), American lyric, humorous, and narrative ballads of frontier days; she sings several previously unrecorded songs. In the summer 2008 Old Time Herald, Bob Buckingham wrote in his review of Art Rosenbaum's compilation Art of Field Recording: "There is powerful ballad singing from Mary Lomax, a sweet looking woman in her photographs, who can conjure the past and bring it to hair-raising reality in the present. Her reading of "Lord Daniel" will have you looking over your shoulder, it is so wonderfully eerie." Mary's sister, Bonnie Loggins, also sings several of the family songs; as well she is a talented song and poem maker, as well as a self- taught visual artists. Mary Ruth Moore (Farmington, GA) grew up in rural Oconee County listening to her grandfather, Joseph Walter Graves, sing old songs accompanied by his homemade banjo. She still sings these songs when she is not teaching photography at the University of Georgia. High Strung String Band Athens, Georgia Website: www.myspace.com/highstrungathens Sometime around 2009, somewhere around Athens, GA a handful of like-minded guys with string instruments started playing together. After picking around a fire in the winter and in a small tool shed in the spring, High Strung String Band was born, and soon began venturing out and playing live shows. Building a repertoire that mixes folk-grass originals with traditional numbers, the band has started to gain a reputation for delivering a high-energy show that gets people moving. The band is reluctant to be identified solely as a traditional bluegrass band. But with a cast of usual suspects such as banjo, mandolin, upright bass and guitar it's hard to not call it bluegrass. What is indeed different about this five-piece is the addition of lap steel guitar. It's lonesome, Americana-tinged sound adds a new dimension to a familiar genre and a distinct element to the band's original songs. High Strung String Band plays music for music's sake and enjoys all the fun that comes with it –meeting new people, seeing new places, and encouraging folks to have a good time. Checking out one of their lively shows promises good, clean fun…only dirtier and with more dancing. Athens Old Time Gospel Singers Athens Old Time Gospel Singers (Athens, GA) is an informal group of singers, including Margaret Davis, Elizabeth Easley, and Rosella Sims. They grew up singing the old style gospel spirituals that have been handed down through the generations. These singers have come together as a group for this performance of old time gospel music. William Tonks Athens, Georgia http://www.myspace.com/williamtonks Long time Athens guitarist, dobro player and singer, William Tonks has been a part of much of Athens musical history over the past 25 years. A member of bands such as Barbara Cue, The Workhorses of the Entertainment/ Recreational Industry, Redneck Greece Deluxe and most recently, Bloodkin and Brad Downs and the Poor Bastard Souls, these days William is stretching his wings as a solo performer. At the North Georgia Folk Festival, he will be performing his original songs about life, love and machinery. String Theory Athens, Georgia http://www.string-theory.net String Theory plays old time, bluegrass and Americana music and is made up of some of Athens finest acoustic musicians. The music is high energy and refuses to let the audience sit back and simply listen: they have to move, dance or even just tap their feet. String Theory performs at dances and concerts throughout the northeast Georgia and Atlanta area. In the past year, String Theory has performed at the Athens Human Rights Festival, AthFest and the Athens Americana Festival. Although a different incarnation of String Theory played at the Folk Festival in 2000, this performance represents a first for this group of musicians. Earlier this year, they released their first CD entitled, “All Wound Up” featuring 11 songs recorded live in the studio in one day. The musicians include Dick Daniels (mandolin, guitar, bass, vocals), Ben Jordan (bass), Tommy Jordan (guitar, banjo, vocals), Antoon Speters (banjo, vocals), Susan Staley (guitar, vocals) and Dale Wechsler (fiddle). Hope For Agoldensummer Athens, Georgia http://www.hopeforagoldensummer.com/ "… bringing me to my knees with indie's best art-rock performances…" - SLAP Hope For Agoldensummer is a family band, living and working in the fine town of Athens, GA. A junkyard-orchestra. An anarchist-soul-choir. For nearly 8 years, this band has traveled the USA creating rusty, gutter angel melodies with a slide guitar, banjo, jangly percussion, glockenspiel, singing saw, piano and a few old coke bottles. The defining sound of the band lies in the frighteningly beautiful sibling harmonies of sisters, Claire and Page Campbell; balanced by the twangy, reverb-washed guitar of Suny Lyons. Their first album, Heart Of Art (2004) was named the #1 local album by Flagpole Magazine (Athens, GA) putting them in the company of heavyweights like Drive-By Truckers, Now It’s Overhead, Vic Chestnut, and Of Montreal. Old Time Fiddlers Circle Roy Tench is an old time fiddler from the Mud Creek Section of Habersham County in the North Georgia mountains. He learned fiddling from his father in a unique regional North Georgia style which he still enjoys playing, in addition to bluegrass and other styles. Roy may be joined by Ed Teague (Rabun County) who is one of the last musicians to play banjo in the old North Georgia two-finger style. Roy and Ed are featured in the drawing by Art Rosenbaum on the 2010 Festival poster. Earl Murphy (Athens, Georgia) is a 92-year old Missouri fiddler who won his first contest at age 8. Earl is a beloved musician in the Athens area for his masterful fiddling of old- time hoedowns and waltzes he learned as a boy in his native Missouri, as well as for his bluegrass and western swing stylings – he loves to play and is a regular at old time jams in the area. In 2008, he was featured at the Festival of American Fiddle Tunes in Washington State. He also performed at the 2009 North Georgia Folk Festival. Phil Tanner (Dacula, Georgia) is the grandson of original Skillet Lickers founder James "Gid" Tanner, which was one of the first bands to be recorded in the old- time tradition i nthe 1920’s. Phil Tanner and the Skillet Lickers, a modern-day North Georgia string band, performed at the North Georgia Folk Festival in 2008. A fine fiddler, Phil returns this year as part of the Old Time Fiddler’s Circle to play some of his favorite tunes. The Balleybeg Band Athens/Atlanta, Georgia www.ballybegband.com www.Myspace.com/ballybeg The Ballybeg Band prides itself on playing the range of Celtic traditional, and not so traditional, music you would hear in the local pubs of Ireland. Formed in 2008, the band appears in pubs, festivals and other events throughout North Georgia. Ballybeg is comprised of Séamus Dunning on whistles and uilleann pipes, Lauren McDonough, a rising star in the Georgia Irish music scene, on fiddle, innovative guitar from Ken Shearer and Athenian Owen Devine on percussion with all members joining in song. Ballybeg, from the Irish baile beag, means small village but we like to think of it as the state of mind you might find in your favorite pub when the music takes you and the urge hits to sing, dance or just lift a pint with your friends. So raise that pint and enjoy the range of Ballybeg music from the plaintive wail of the pipes, to smoking jigs and reels, to songs of love, loss and, of course, the drink. Tomorrow may have its troubles, but tonight we'll have some craic, and that means fun.

  • Guitarist Sharon Isbin to Star with Santa Rosa Symphony
    Guitarist Sharon Isbin to star with Santa Rosa Symphony By DIANE PETERSON THE PRESS DEMOCRAT Published: Thursday, January 20, 2011 at 3:00 a.m. WWW.SHARONISBIN.COM/ J. HENRY FAIR Sharon Isbin serves as the American ambassador of the classical guitar, performing everywhere from the concert hall to the White House. It's a job that no one else really wanted. That's because most Americans are exposed to the guitar through rock and folk music and then fall in love with classical guitar by accident. “That's changing now, but that certainly has been part of the history of classical guitar in this country,” Isbin said in a phone interview from her home in New York City. “Europe has a much longer tradition of classical guitar, going back to Spain and Italy and the U.K., so that the roots have had time to blossom and flourish.” For the Santa Rosa Symphony's fourth concert set this weekend, Isbin will whisk the audience off to the gardens of Spain during a performance of Joaquin Rodrigo's passionate “Concierto de Aranjuez.” “The Rodrigo is one of the most popular works of any works for orchestra,” she said. “The second movement is so powerfully moving and emotionally raw, with great nuances and musical inspiration. It's something that really touches people in unusual ways.” Led by guest conductor and Mexico native Enrique Arturo Diemecke, the south-of-the- border program also includes Astor Piazzolla's seductive “Tangazo, Variations on Buenos Aires” and the Fourth Symphony of composer Carlos Chavez, considered to be the founder of modern Mexican music.

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • Time's the Revelator
    Time’s the Revelator: Revival and Resurgence in Alt.country and Modern Old-Time American Music Ashley Denise Melzer A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of American Studies (Folklore). Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Dr. William Ferris Dr. Robert Cantwell Dr. Patricia Sawin © 2009 Ashley Denise Melzer ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT ASHLEY MELZER: Time’s the Revelator: Revival and Resurgence in Alt.country and Modern Old-Time American Music (Under the directions of Dr. William Ferris, Dr. Robert Cantwell, and Dr. Patricia Sawin) This thesis investigates the relationship between the modern old-time and alt.country movements through the comparison of four different female musicians: Abigail Washburn, Rayna Gellert, Gillian Welch, and Neko Case. These four women often pull from the same wellspring of old-time songs/structures/sounds, but their instincts come from exceptionally different places. The disparity between the ways they approach their music, reveals how the push toward modern capitalist industrialism has affected how different artists and communities access and transmit those old-world icons and sounds. Furthermore, their engagement specifically with the topic of gender exposes key tactical differences. Old-time musicians, Washburn and Gellert, work within the strictures of tradition so as to remain in dialogue with their community. Welch and Case play into the experimental bent of alt.country to emotionally affect listeners in order to create discreet, personal connections between themselves and their audience. iii To the ones who listen and love me anyway iv PREFACE In the summer, Florida is so hot the home becomes some dark prison of necessary air conditioning.

  • Dear Members, the Guitar Society Motto Is
    Dear Members, Adam playing some great solo Blues arrangements by John Fahey The Guitar Society motto is “Bringing in open tunings local guitarists out of the woodwork” and that is certainly what happened at the last meeting on September 14th. We had a great turnout, great participation and an even greater range of music! We began the evening with some good ensemble pieces from Andrew Forrest’s website and from Jerry Snyder’s Guitar School. There is clearly growing interest in the ensemble music and looking forward I can imagine this section evolving into a more structured session. Looking further down the road (for those who have never heard a guitar orchestra) it is quite remarkable the quality and depth of sound that can be created with a large number of guitars and, if you are still unsure, check out some of the guitar orchestras on YouTube. Here’s a good rendition of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cx8cWUdLuZo The Open Stage session saw the widest range of styles on show we have had so far. Although I didn’t capture all the performers, the following photographs tell some of the story: Chilean classical guitarist Ricardo Cardenas impressed us with classical guitar pieces from S America including Lauro’s Waltz No. 4. Andrew playing a wonderful solo arrangement of the jazz standard “Tenderly”. One of our younger performers wowed the audience with a minor swing duo with Nick Rivard Michael treating us to an eclectic mix of classical, folk and his own great arrangement of Sweet Georgia Brown.

  • Slow Turning
    Slow Turning John Hiatt Fanzine - Issue 10 Welcome to Issue 10! Can you believe Slow Turning: John Hiatt Fanzine can now measure its issues in double-digits? Neither can we. Seems like only yesterday yours truly fanzine girl was typing into a 4MB Compaq computer with a pile of photocopies from the local library piled high around me to create our first issue. Now we can all get daily news alerts from all corners of the globe thanks to a mighty invention called Google. It is my humble hope that I can still offer a service to you dear readers by putting together some of the best reviews, interviews, and various facts that are out there about John and his music. One of the most exciting pieces of recent news came from Ted Drozdowski of Gibson.com: “.. guitar builders at Gibson’s acoustic shop in Bozeman, Montana, have now paid tribute to Hiatt’s longtime main axes with a limited edition John Hiatt Model. The big-bodied dreadnought built to Hiatt’s specifications of a solid Sitka spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides, and a one-piece mahogany neck with a modified v-shaped profile generates the same kind of rich, ringing, harmonically complex tones that grace Hiatt’s records...” And speaking of beautiful tones, John’s daughter, Lilly Hiatt, is starting to make her mark on the music scene. Her band, The Dropped Ponies, recently played at a New West Records party in Austin around the time John was in town for the South by Southwest Music Festival.

  • A Bold Force in Foursomes
    ← Back to Original Article Classical Music A bold force in foursomes The members of Ethel offer a different string-quartet sound, and not just because of their penchant for improvising, amplifying, commissioning and composing. February 20, 2005 | Kyle Gann | Special to The Times NEW YORK — By now it's clear that even if most of the classical music world will have to be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century, that's not true of the string quartet. The orchestra may look like a counterexample to Darwin, but string quartets evolve. Already we've had string quartets with drummers, string quartets who play jazz, even quartets with weird outfits and spiky haircuts. And now we have Ethel, who will make their Los Angeles debut Saturday at the Southern California Institute of Architecture as part of Chamber Music in Historic Sites. Yes, Ethel is the quartet's name (we'll get into that later), and don't dare call them "the Ethel String Quartet." They're just Ethel, and they represent perhaps the most radical redefinition of the medium yet. It's not just that they play all new repertoire. It's not just that they usually play with amplification, though that's true too. It's not just that they improvise. Other quartets have done these things before. What's most subversive about Ethel is that they're breaking down the traditional lines between composer and performer and between performer and technology. The group consists of violinists Todd Reynolds and Mary Rowell, violist Ralph Farris and cellist Dorothy Lawson.
