Doors will open at 7:30 and the show starts at 8 pm. There will be a tasty concession for the show. Admission is $15.This will be Jon's 3rd show here, and he has played to a full house both times so far! A must for the acoustic folk, songwriter type fans among us. It was in 1997, at 28 years old, and at the end of a year of travelling throughout Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union, and particularly, throughout war ruined Bosnia-Herzegovina - it was during this time Jon discovered what kind of song he wanted to write. In 2006 he began singing that song. In 2014 Borealis Records released his 5th album, The Smiling and Beautiful Countryside. Jon is Kerrville New Folk Winner and a four- times nominated "Songwriter of the Year" at the Canadian "Political songwriting’ is all too often assumed to be Folk Music Awards. He has released numerous albums to shouty simplistic protest, and all too often it is and critical acclaim. No Mean City, released in 2006, was the therefore tends to be ignored…Brooks knows this and his first in a trilogy of albums of sparse instrumentation and songs are songs first and messages second…a powerful and densely layered meaning - a singular writing style at times brutally clear-sighted vision armed only with an characterized by paradox, understatement, overstatement, acoustic guitar, a harmonica, and a gritty ragged and by allusion to Western religious, literary and folk voice…Brooks is a star in the making." Maverick Magazine, UK traditions. It was followed by Ours and the Shepherds in 2007 and the solo acoustic set Moth Nor Rust in 2009. Delicate Cages was released by Borealis Records in May 2012. The album earned Jon his third 'Songwriter of the Year' nomination in 5 years from The Canadian Folk Music Awards. The Smiling and Beautiful Countryside was recorded in Toronto by well-awarded and oft-acclaimed producer/engineer, David Travers-Smith. Jon's 5th full length release is an intrepid solo set that defies categorization and resists any 'folk,' 'singer-songwriter,' or 'solo acoustic' description. Some of you may know his guitarist, Neil Cruickshank as the co-founder of his Vancouver -based band, Brickhouse - a mainstay of the Vancouver blues and funk-revival scene for over 20 years now. For information and music, check out www.jonbrooks.ca. "I write songs to calm those who've looked into, and seen, what is in their hearts. I also write songs to terrify those who have not." -- Jon Brooks "(Brooks) speaks and sings words that need to be spoken and sung and he does it beautifully, perfectly, and with absolute finesse." - Rod Kennedy, Founder and Producer of The Kerrville Folk Festival, Kerrville, TX “Brooks stands among an exalted few in the enduring Canadian song tradition – Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Fred Eaglesmith, Bruce Cockburn – as a lyricist, composer and performer with a fierce commitment to his craft and his vision.” Greg Quill, The Toronto Star. 3 33 3 [Type text] By Laura Busheikin Trustee Notebook Having Your Say Part II Last month I wrote about public engagement, offering schools, seniors’ centres, etc; some practical tips about how, when and where you can Make events accessible by choosing a share your thoughts with the Denman Island Local Trust central location, ensuring the room is Committee, the body you elected for land use planning. comfortable and providing child-care and Since then I attended a workshop on public engagement refreshments as well as support for people which inspired me to write more on this topic.

  • Notes from the Underground: a Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music
    Notes From The Underground: A Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music. Stephen Graham Goldsmiths College, University of London PhD 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Signed: …………………………………………………. Date:…………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract The term ‗underground music‘, in my account, connects various forms of music-making that exist largely outside ‗mainstream‘ cultural discourse, such as Drone Metal, Free Improvisation, Power Electronics, and DIY Noise, amongst others. Its connotations of concealment and obscurity indicate what I argue to be the music‘s central tenets of cultural reclusion, political independence, and aesthetic experiment. In response to a lack of scholarly discussion of this music, my thesis provides a cultural, political, and aesthetic mapping of the underground, whose existence as a coherent entity is being both argued for and ‗mapped‘ here. Outlining the historical context, but focusing on the underground in the digital age, I use a wide range of interdisciplinary research methodologies , including primary interviews, musical analysis, and a critical engagement with various pertinent theoretical sources. In my account, the underground emerges as a marginal, ‗antermediated‘ cultural ‗scene‘ based both on the web and in large urban centres, the latter of whose concentration of resources facilitates the growth of various localised underground scenes. I explore the radical anti-capitalist politics of many underground figures, whilst also examining their financial ties to big business and the state(s). This contradiction is critically explored, with three conclusions being drawn. First, the underground is shown in Part II to be so marginal as to escape, in effect, post- Fordist capitalist subsumption.

    Jon Brooks’ music is polyphonic in sound, word, and influence. His performances JON BROOKS are emotionally intense raids on the inexplicable human heart. Brooks’ 7 “I write songs to calm those albums are thematic obsessions over paradox, love, fear, religion, war, PTSD, who’ve looked into and seen technology, grief, animal justice, murder, what’s in their hearts; I also write ecology, esoteria, and the stars - his essential message: we are loved. songs to terrify those who’ve not.” “Brooks’ massive declamatory vibe and hypnotic, inimitable guitar playing gives an audience goosebumps you could grate cheese on.” – Paul Corby, Roots Music Canada, February 2019. “He is by turns metaphorical and metaphysical; at times he examines the small details of life, at others, he soars above human struggles seeking something higher; his gritty voice is infinitely kind and gentle. Mature, wise, and intrepid – somehow Jon Brooks sings a path to the mysterious and complex essence of the human condition.” – Julie Miller, CFLX 95,5 Sherbrooke, Quebec “(Brooks) speaks and sings words that need to be spoken and sung and he does it beautifully, perfectly, and with absolute finesse.” – Rod Kennedy, Founder & Producer, Kerrville Folk Festival jonbrooks.ca | facebook.com/jonbrooks.ca | twitter.com/jonbrooksmusic | instagram.com/jonbrooksmusic Contact Jon: [email protected] | 416.559.9363 Management: Dave Gallant: [email protected] | 250.886.7928 Moth Nor Rust II (Fallen Tree Records, 2019) Moth Nor Rust II was produced by the original Moth Nor Rust’s engineer, Jason LaPrade and co-produced by Brooks’ longtime friend and musical compadre, Neil Cruickshank. In Jon’s words, “The song is an art form that operates in time and 10 years’ time has a way of transforming the song in ways worthy of revisiting.” Brooks’ band The Outskirts of Approval includes Neil Cruickshank (guitar, organ and vocals), Joe Ernewein (electric guitar), John Showman (violin), and Vivienne Wilder (upright bass and vocals).
