    PRESS RELEASE Press Contact: James Bryan, Marketing Director [email protected] 757-650-9925 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 2018 Proteus Festival Headliners Announced Kishi Bashi and The Hunts to Headline First Proteus Festival. Virginia Beach - Zeiders American Dream Theater (The Z) in Town Center under the lead- ership of Artistic Director Bart Kuebler and Executive Director Terry Flint, is pleased to present the first Proteus Festival which coincides with brand new facility opening. Zeiders American Dream Theater’s new 309 seat Main Stage Theater and 120 seat Studio Theater will open its doors the same weekend as Proteus Festival. Proteus Festival begins Oc- tober 5 through October 7, 2018 with 3 Day Standard Badges ($75) and 3 Day Gold Badges ($150) going on sale July 30, 2018 at 10am. Single Day Admission Wristbands and Special Ho- tel Packages will also be available on July 30, 2018. “I am thrilled to be bringing in both The Hunts and Kishi Bashi as featured artists during the inaugural Proteus Festival. We started Proteus Festival to spread our vision of building a vibrant creative community, and we could find no better examples of what that means than these two artists.” says Bart Kuebler, Artistic Director. The Hunts are an indie-alternative-folk band comprised of seven brothers and sisters. Born and raised in the south lands of Chesapeake, Virginia, the siblings grew up in a musical home and fell in love with composing their own music. With over 10 million listens on Spotify and tours with X Ambassadors and The Fray, The Hunts will headline the Friday Night Studio Theater Premier Performance on October 5 which is sponsored by Clark Nexsen.

BY BOB BOILEN, ROBIN HILTON, ANN POWERS, AND STEPHEN THOMPSON More from this author Like 50 Tweet 2 From Bob Boilen: CHECK THESE OUT Patrick Watson Okay, easy prediction here, since the best show I saw at SXSW was Patrick Watson: I predict Patrick Watson will release one of the best albums of 2012. Unlike the brilliant 2009 release Wooden Arms , this new record Adventures in Your Own Backyard is going to be a hit. Watson is going on the road opening for Andrew Bird, and Bird’s audience will appreciate his story songs — tales wrapped in finely arranged swatches of piano melodies perfect percussion and the right does of guitar and violin.

    A SCENE WITHOUT A NAME: INDIE CLASSICAL AND AMERICAN NEW MUSIC IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY William Robin A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Mark Katz Andrea Bohlman Mark Evan Bonds Tim Carter Benjamin Piekut © 2016 William Robin ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT WILLIAM ROBIN: A Scene Without a Name: Indie Classical and American New Music in the Twenty-First Century (Under the direction of Mark Katz) This dissertation represents the first study of indie classical, a significant subset of new music in the twenty-first century United States. The definition of “indie classical” has been a point of controversy among musicians: I thus examine the phrase in its multiplicity, providing a framework to understand its many meanings and practices. Indie classical offers a lens through which to study the social: the web of relations through which new music is structured, comprised in a heterogeneous array of actors, from composers and performers to journalists and publicists to blog posts and music venues. This study reveals the mechanisms through which a musical movement establishes itself in American cultural life; demonstrates how intermediaries such as performers, administrators, critics, and publicists fundamentally shape artistic discourses; and offers a model for analyzing institutional identity and understanding the essential role of institutions in new music. Three chapters each consider indie classical through a different set of practices: as a young generation of musicians that constructed itself in shared institutional backgrounds and performative acts of grouping; as an identity for New Amsterdam Records that powerfully shaped the record label’s music and its dissemination; and as a collaboration between the ensemble yMusic and Duke University that sheds light on the twenty-first century status of the new-music ensemble and the composition PhD program.

    Big Hassle Media For Immediate Release BEN FOLDS TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM, SO THERE, SEPTEMBER 11 ON NEW WEST RECORDS NPR PREMIERES “CAPABLE OF ANYTHING” PRE-ORDERS BEGIN JULY 17 (New York, NY – June 5, 2015) – Ben Folds has announced the release of his landmark new album, So There. Hitting stores on September 11, the album is the multi-platinum selling singer/songwriter/producer’s first for his new label New West Records, and showcases eight new pop songs recorded and arranged in collaboration with yMusic — a critically acclaimed NYC- based sextet — along with the debut recording of Folds’ 21-minute “Concerto For Piano and Orchestra,” with the Nashville Symphony conducted by Giancarlo Guerrero. Recorded in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and his own historic Grand Victor Sound (aka RCA Studio A) in Nashville, the album is marked by its forward-thinking studio craft and creative spontaneity. NPR premiered the first song, “Capable of Anything,” from the album earlier today. Bob Boilen at NPR said: “Ben Folds’ music has taken another turn, firmly embracing strings and chamber music yet still maintaining a passion for his love of pop… I find this to be the most lovable piece of music I’ve ever heard from Ben Folds.” “I don’t recall ever being quite so excited about an album I’m making,” Folds said. “I’ll let you decide if that’s a good thing or not. It’s just that we don’t often get to make a record that we’ve never heard before. The arrangements you will hear on this record are straight up rock – not ornamentation.

After a few quiet weeks around the holidays, winter is always a remarkably busy time at the theater as we prepare for Mission Creek Festival (full disclosure: I am a co-founder but many people have their hands in making this event work). This year marks the tenth installment of Mission Creek Festival in Iowa City, and we at the Englert are proud to be the producer of the festival. The lineup often reminds me of the programmatic vision that drives my work at the theater: to present the known and unknown side-by-side, to find a balance between the traditional and the experimental, to be reminded of a familiar feeling and to be rewarded by a new experience. Indeed, part of my job is to bring old favorites like Joan Baez, hot new bands like Lake Street Dive, or an institution of comedy like The Second City.

A 12- Drama man jury is sent to begin deliberations in the first-degree murder trial of an 18-year-old Latino accused in the stabbing death of his father - where a guilty verdict means an automatic death sentence.

Eleven of the jurors immediately vote guilty; only Juror No. 8 (Mr. Davis) casts a not guilty vote. At first Mr. Davis' bases his vote more so for the sake of discussion after all - the jurors must believe beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant is guilty.
