Program to be announced from the stage Biographies STEEP CANYON RANGERS

Steep Canyon Rangers is Asheville, North Carolina’s Grammy winner, perennial Billboard chart-topper, and frequent collaborator of the renowned banjoist (and occasional comedian) .

Steep Canyon Rangers re-signed with Yep Roc Records in 2019. “It feels like coming home,” says banjoist and vocalist Graham Sharp of the partnership. “The Yep Roc family was among the first to welcome Steep Canyon Rangers when we were just pups. As we’ve grown, so have they. We’re incredibly excited for the future and all the music it holds.”

Steep Canyon Rangers released three albums in 2020, all on Yep Roc Records. The Grammy-nominated North Carolina Songbook is a recording of the band’s live 2019 performance at Merlefest in Wilkesboro, North Carolina, in which the band performed a selection of songs by North Carolina songwriters (Ola Belle Reed, Doc Watson, James Taylor, Ben E. King, and others). Be Still Moses—perhaps its most singular musical partnership to date–has the band teaming with Philadelphia soul legends Boyz II Men and its hometown Asheville Symphony to completely overhaul the Rangers’ original Be Still Moses, which was first recorded on its 2007 breakout album, Lovin’ Pretty Women. The album includes re-imagined versions of Steep Canyon’s previously released original songs performed with an orchestra. Its most recent release of all original music, Arm in Arm, came out in October.

“Every song on Arm in Arm captures the North Carolina group’s innovative spirit, weaving in jazz, gospel, folk, and even rock phrases, creating an intimate and intricate sound that challenges, cajoles, and comforts.” —No Depression

The band is made up of Woody Platt on guitar and vocals, Graham Sharp on and vocals, Mike Guggino on mandolin/mandola and vocals, on and vocals, Mike Ashworth on drums and vocals, and Barrett Smith on bass and vocals.

Steep Canyon Rangers has been on a journey that is uniquely its own. The band started in college at UNC-Chapel Hill, then dove head first into bluegrass in its most traditional form. Over the years the group has risen to the top of the bluegrass genre, headlining top festivals such as Merlefest and Grey Fox Bluegrass, only to then be discovered by Steve Martin, famous actor and banjo player. Martin has taken the group on a nearly decade-long tour, introducing it to hundreds of thousands of new fans and giving it prime time TV exposure. This has helped Steep Canyon Biographies (continued)

STEEP CANYON RANGERS (continued)

Rangers become the most recognizable modern name in . The band has continued to tour extensively on its own, without Martin, and has expanded its genre into country and Americana with the addition of a drummer, alongside an incredibly versatile bassist, to accompany the original core band. The band is a big player in the bluegrass/country and Americana scene today. Steep Canyon Rangers is often compared to predecessors The Band, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and the modern Zac Brown Band.

This is Steep Canyon Rangers’ first performance at the Moss Arts Center.

AMYTHYST KIAH

With an unforgettable voice that’s both unfettered and exquisitely controlled, Tennessee-bred singer/songwriter Amythyst Kiah expands on the uncompromising artistry she most recently revealed as part of Our Native Daughters, an all-women-of-color supergroup whose Kiah- penned standout Black Myself earned a Grammy Award nomination for Best American Roots Song and won Song of the Year at the 2019 Folk Alliance International Awards. When met with the transcendent quality of her newly elevated sound, what emerges is an extraordinary vessel for Kiah’s songwriting: a raw yet nuanced examination of grief, alienation, and the hard-won triumph of total self-acceptance.

This new studio version of Black Myself is a glorious collision of two vastly different worlds: the iconoclastic alt-rock that first sparked her musical passion, and the roots/old-time-music scene. Produced by Tony Berg (Phoebe Bridgers, Amos Lee, and Andrew Bird) the track was recorded at the legendary Sound City Studios in .

Kiah first performed at the Moss Arts Center in 2017. Engagement Events THURSDAY, APRIL 15, 2021 VIRTUAL CLASS VISIT BY AMYTHYST KIAH Amythyst Kiah led a virtual discussion about her music and personal journey in the context of the region’s history and cultures in an Introduction to Appalachian Studies course at Virginia Tech.

UNBEARABLE BEAUTY James Balog | Daniel Beltrá | Edward Burtynsky | Chris Jordan | Steve Norton Through Saturday, April 24 All galleries

Expansive in theme and panoramic in scope, this exhibition presents works of art that are visually engaging, impactful, and even beautiful, while conveying the difficult reality that the consequences of human activity have imperiled the Earth. Featuring large-scale photographic works by three nationally and internationally recognized artists, a stunning video installation of one of the largest arctic glacier calving incidents to date, and an arresting soundscape of birdsongs of species that no longer exist, the exhibition articulates in striking, aesthetic terms the damage inflicted on our ecosystems by human activity. This exhibition presents a visual journey, poignantly bringing into focus a number of these critical ecological issues, the enormity of which are difficult for most of us to grasp or fully comprehend.
