  • For Immediate Release: GREY FOX BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL “A Who’S Who of Bluegrass Music” JULY 15-18, 2010
    For Immediate Release: GREY FOX BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL “A Who’s Who of Bluegrass Music” JULY 15-18, 2010 WINNER of IBMA BLUEGRASS EVENT OF THE YEAR AWARD On the Walsh Farm, Oak Hill, NY 12460 In Greene County NY’s Beautiful Catskill Mountain Region For the die-hard bluegrass fan, the thought of summer means making an annual pilgrimage to Oak Hill, NY where a normally quiet, out-of-the-way farm in rural Greene County is magically transformed into a community of world-class performers, exuberant fans, devoted volunteers, non-stop jamming, funky campsites, scrumptious food and booths filled with crafts, instruments and clothing. For the third week in July, the Walsh Farm is home to a colorful tent city of music, laughter, cooperation and good will! Long-time Grey Fox fans say it is a homecoming: a cherished reunion of friends who may see each other just once a year. Newcomers are struck by how warm and welcoming everyone is as they are quickly befriended by fellow fans, volunteers, vendors and even artists. “There may be several thousand people in attendance, but it feels like a small town where you know everyone,” says Australian, Jason Nicholas, now planning his third year at Grey Fox. The Northeast’s largest bluegrass festival moved to Oak Hill in 2008 after being held for decades in nearby Columbia County. To the new location, organizers brought all the components for which it is famous: multiple stages, hands-on learning workshops, festive foods, rustic camping, round-the-clock jamming and thousands of fans from all over the U.S., Canada, Europe and the Far East.

  • BIO INDIA.ARIE Lauded As a Soul Music Superstar from Her Early
    BIO INDIA.ARIE Lauded as a soul music superstar from her early twenties, India.Arie has always been at once angelic and mystical while managing to never isolate her audience – she is as at home accompanying a hip hop artist as she is producing truly spine-tingling soul music. India’s message of healing, love, and compassion viewed through the lens of her indelible artistry and spiritual practice has made her a global difference-maker for nearly two decades. It was 2001’s seminal Acoustic Soul (nominated for seven GRAMMYs) and the groundbreaking self-acceptance anthem “Video”, that established her as a bold new transformative force in music. Twenty-two GRAMMY nominations later (with four GRAMMY wins), she endures as one of the most empowering artists in music history (she launched her own lifestyle/music brand SoulBird in 2011), notching multiple award-winning albums and influential, chart-topping singles, meshing soul, folk, pop, R&B and hip hop and redefining the boundaries of the socially conscious singer/songwriter. Recognized as a major influence for a new generation of socially aware artists, India is both ahead of her time and of it - an evocative creative force on a mission to spread healing, peace, love and unconditional self-acceptance through the power of words and music. It’s no secret to India.Arie fans that the word ‘worthy’ has been an empowering expression of self-love for her and her audience over the years. Faithfully repurposed as the title and theme of her brand new 16-track album, including 13 songs and 3 interludes, India’s first full-length offering in five years is set to impact a world finally attuned to the kind of empathic sea-change the humanitarian singer/songwriter has embraced her entire career.

These documents, describing the aesthetic and technical characteristics of the music pieces, are collected here, in the Music Proceedings. We believe Music Proceedings are an important step towards a consistent and richer means of documenting the performances taking place at NIME. This will be a useful resource for researchers, and provides an alternative voice for contributors to speak about their artistic practice in NIME research.
