Photograph by Lesbians Amy Ray and Emily Saliers are Indigo Girls, one of the most successful folk/ Wikimedia Commons pop duos in recording history. Ray and Saliers have carved out an enduring career that contributor Andreac. is due largely to the fierce loyalty of their fans, many of them lesbians. Ray, a native Atlantan, and Saliers, a transplant from Connecticut, met in grade school in Atlanta and became friends. They shared a talent for writing and music and began playing together in Ray's parents' basement. During college at Emory University, they played club dates in and around Atlanta as the "B Band" and later "Saliers and Ray," developing their following and reputation as a particularly strong band in live performance. Beginning in 1981 they released several independent records on tape and in 1985 released a vinyl single, "Crazy Game." That same year Ray selected the name Indigo Girls on "sort of a whim," she explained in an interview years later. "I found it in the dictionary . it's a deep blue, a root--real earthy." The duo signed with Epic Records in 1988. Their first record for Epic, the multi-platinum Indigo Girls, included their best-known song, "Closer to Fine." That year they were nominated for two Grammy awards-- Best New Artist (they narrowly lost to Milli Vanilli) and Best Contemporary Folk Album, which they won.

  • At a Time When Hope and Forgiveness Seem in Short Supply, Roots Singer
    At a time when hope and forgiveness seem in short supply, roots singer-songwriter Amy Ray gives us all a shot in the arm with her ninth solo album, Holler, due this fall from Daemon Records. Still thriving as one half of GRAMMY-winning folk duo Indigo Girls, Ray has also produced a vital body of solo work over five studio albums and three live records (beginning with 2001’s Stag) that explores more deeply her roots in punk and classic country music. Last time, on 2014’s Goodnight Tender, she gathered a band of mostly Southern players and immersed into the rich sonic tradition of old-style country music-making that had long-captured her imagination, but never fully made it into work. The result was equal-parts Appalachian gospel and late-night honky tonk. That song cycle navigated themes of darkness and heartbreak, calling to mind the words of Southern greats like Hank Williams and Eudora Welty. From songs like “Let the Spirit” and “More Pills” emerged Ray’s own bucolic vision of mortality, true love, and the afterlife. American Songwriter called it “beautifully well-done” and PopMatters called it “wise” and “vulnerable.” But, while many of those reviews rightly focused on Ray’s ability to embody her songwriting, few focused on the impressive work of her backing musicians. Finding their spark on Goodnight Tender, Ray’s firecracker band has evolved into a tight unit over four years of on and off touring. Critics are unlikely to miss them on Holler. Led by shape-shifting multi-instrumentalist Jeff Fielder on guitars, dobro, bass, and mandolin; Ray’s band—Matt Smith on pedal steel, dobro, and guitar; Adrian Carter on fiddle and guitar; Kerry Brooks on upright bass and mandolin; Jim Brock on drums and percussion; Alison Brown on banjo, and Kofi Burbridge of Tedeschi Trucks Band on keys—has long since fused into a level of cohesion more typical of a family band.

  • Mary Vingoe Opening Words
    Mary Vingoe Opening Words Celebrated director, actor, and playwright Mary Vingoe was one of two keynote speakers at the Shifting Tides: Atlantic Canadian Theatre Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow conference. The following is a revised version of her opening presentation. hen I was asked to speak here today, I asked my friend Sarah WStanley what I should talk about at this conference. Sarah is myArtisticAssociate at Magnetic North Theatre Festival and she is a director whom I like and respect. She has worked with Live Bait in New Brunswick and Artistic Fraud in Newfoundland and she’s a friend of Jest in Time. “Oh God,”she said,“there’s so much wit, and depth, and despair, and poetry, and colour, and….” “And you can’t make a living there,”I said,“period.” “No,”she said,“that part is pretty hard.” This seemed like as good a place as any to start. I first ‘left’ Nova Scotia in 1976, in the time-honoured tradi- tion of all Dalhousie theatre graduates, to come to Toronto where I had a scholarship to do graduate work at the University of Toronto. But of course, I wasn’t all that interested in doing graduate work. What I really wanted was to get to Toronto where things were happening, where Factory Theatre Lab (as it was known then), Theatre Passe Muraille, and Tarragon were all in their glorious first decade of existence. I didn’t want to be studying Canadian theatre history—I wanted to be making it. Unbeknownst to ourselves in those first Toronto years, we were actually making it.

  • Popular Music and Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals, and Transgender People: an Annotated Bibliography and Discography
    Page 1 of 35 Popular Music and Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals, and Transgender People: An Annotated Bibliography and Discography. Compiled by Walt “Cat” Walker. Approved by the GLBTRT Resources Committee. Last revised January 12, 2017. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 2 I. General Nonfiction 3 II. Memoirs & Biographies 9 III. Fiction 32 IV. Drama 33 V. Children & Teens 34 VI. DVDs 35 Page 2 of 35 Introduction Gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender people have always participated in creating popular music. In recent years, the visibility of LGBTQ people in the music world has increased, and more popular music has been created that openly describes the LGBTQ experience. There has also been an increase in books and films related to LGBTQ visibility in popular music, both in fiction and nonfiction. This bibliography includes resources about gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender persons involved in the popular music field. The books have all been published in print, and many of them may also be found as e-books. Separate sections contain memoirs, novels, plays, and children’s and teen books. Several LGBT popular music-related DVDs are also listed. Each book and DVD has a link to the OCLC WorldCat record (when available) where you can see which libraries hold the item. Most of this resource is comprised of a discography of popular music recordings by LGBTQ artists. It is not meant to be complete, but many recordings still available in CD format for each artist are listed, and several are annotated. Many of these performers’ songs can now also be found on streaming music services and online digital music websites.

It was a year of trust building, deepening relationships and working practices, and of course, reacting and responding to the enormity of the pandemic we are still deep in the midst of. Andrea Donaldson by Graham Isador Though we never could have anticipated how our season would end, our 2019-2020 Season began with The Groundswell Festival - a longstanding tradition in celebration of new works. The line up included five brand new offerings from our Write From The Hip playwrights unit, as well as a reading of Children of Fire by Sharhzad Arshadi and Anna Chatterton. As part of the festival we also launched our inaugural Feminist Unconference, a provocative daylong event for theatre practitioners to unpack all things feminist, that immediately became a new tradition. We had three live productions this season: The Election, a Theatre Passe Muraille presentation of a Common Boots Theatre Production in association with Nightwood Theatre and Theatre Direct; Every Day She Rose at Buddies at Bad Times Theatre; and The Solitudes at Harbourfront Centre Theatre, an Aluna Theatre production in association with Nightwood Theatre.

  • Holladay Dissertation
    ABSTRACT Jesus on the Radio: Theological Reflection and Prophetic Witness of American Popular Music Meredith Anne Holladay, Ph.D. Mentor: Christopher Marsh, Ph.D. The image of God in humanity is the image of the creator, the creative spirit, the imagination, manifest in our ability to understand, appreciate, and reflect on the beauty of God in creation. Therefore, the spirit of imagination, beauty, and creativity is intrinsic to the fullness of a life of faith. Art is a boon to a life of faith; additionally art and creativity allow for and create a space for genuine theological reflection. Arguments made about art in general can be applied to forms of popular culture. The foundation for this project explores the nuances between definitions of “popular culture”, and asserts that popular culture can be and often is meaning-making and identity-forming. The theological significance of popular culture is couched in terms of theological reflection and prophetic witness. The implicit assumption that anything dubbed “Christian” maintains theological depth, and creations lacking that distinction are ‘secular,’ or ‘profane,’ and therefore devoid of any moral good or theological import, is false, and a distinction this project serves in dissolving. The third chapter asserts a strong link between theological and prophetic tasks, one flowing from the other. Genuine theological reflection must result in an outward and public response. Theological reflection connects to the truth of one’s lived experience, and speaks honestly about the human story; out of that experience, voices of prophetic witness speak truth to power, out of and in solidarity with lived experiences.
