Not just from the audience’s Kenzie Palmer perspective, but from the perspective of those who put it on as well. There is an unspoken Country Showcase Winner responsibility that we hold as techs, managers, and bands that keeps everyone pushing for- ward — as if the music we produce might have a divine purpose of bringing us all together. Jordan Xidas Music is a stronghold in which everyone is welcome, no matter their walk of life. ASCAP Writers’ Night Winner That is what showcase has been for me, and for so many of my friends, since I started this Anna Vaus journey three years ago. Showcase gave me a family when I was so far away from my own. ASCAP Writers’ Night Winner It gave me a place to fall back on when nothing seemed familiar or stable, and I know that is true for so many others.

    Distant Music An autoethnographic study of global songwriting in the digital age. SHEILA SIMMENES SUPERVISOR Michael Rauhut University of Agder, 2020 Faculty of Fine Arts Department of Popular music 2 Abstract This thesis aims to explore the path to music creation and shed a light on how we may maneuver songwriting and music production in the digital age. As a songwriter in 2020, my work varies from being in the same physical room using digital communication with collaborators from different cultures and sometimes even without ever meeting face to face with the person I'm making music with. In this thesis I explore some of the opportunities and challenges of this process and shine a light on tendencies and trends in the field. As an autoethnographic research project, this thesis offers an insight into the songwriting process and continuous development of techniques by myself as a songwriter in the digital age, working both commercially and artistically with international partners across the world. The thesis will aim to supplement knowledge on current working methods in songwriting and will hopefully shine a light on how one may improve as a songwriter and topliner in the international market. We will explore the tools and possibilities available to us, while also reflecting upon what challenges and complications one may encounter as a songwriter in the digital age. 3 4 Acknowledgements I wish to express my gratitude to my supervisor Michael Rauhut for his insight, expertise and continued support during this work; associate professor Per Elias Drabløs for his kind advice and feedback; and to my artistic supervisor Bjørn Ole Rasch for his enthusiasm and knowledge in the field of world music and international collaborations.

Tomko Dr. Anthea Kraut Copyright Natalie Zervou 2015 The Dissertation of Natalie Zervou is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgments This dissertation is the result of four years of intensive research, even though I have been engaging with this topic and the questions discussed here long before that. Having been born in Greece, and having lived there till my early twenties, it is the place that holds all my childhood memories, my first encounters with dance, my friends, and my family. From a very early age I remember how I always used to say that I wanted to study dance and then move to the US to pursue my dream. Back then I was not sure what that dream was, other than leaving Greece, where I often felt like I did not belong. Being here now, in the US, I think I found it and I must admit that when I first begun my pursuit in graduate studies in dance, I was very hesitant to engage in research concerning Greece.

  • Mark Knopfler 2015 Veranstaltungsort Westfalenhalle Einlass Ca. 18:30
    17.06.2015 Mark Knopfler 2015 Veranstaltungsort Westfalenhalle Einlass ca. 18:30 Uhr Beginn 20:00 Uhr Ende 22:45 Uhr Veranstalter Dirk Becker Entertainment GmbH Mark Knopfler hat der populären Musik mit einigen ihrer besten Songs immer wieder wichtige Impulse geliefert. Als genialer Gitarrist, Sänger und Songschreiber von Dire Straits, die sicher zu den größten Rockbands aller Zeiten gehören, erlangte er Weltruhm. Seine neun Soloalben knüpfen an die von ihm begründete Songtradition an und verbinden beide Schaffensperioden zu begeisternden Live-Erlebnissen. Mit rund 120 Millionen Alben zählt er zu einem illustren Kreis von Interpreten, die überragender Erfolg und bleibende Bedeutung auszeichnet. Auf den mehrfachen Grammy-Gewinner trifft die Bezeichnung Superstar wirklich zu, obwohl er sich nie als solcher geriert. Seine Musik bezeichnete ein Kritiker treffend als „Gegenentwurf zum hektischen Popzirkus, der selbst zum Welterfolg avancierte“. Mark Knopfler präsentiert seine aktuellen Songs, eine Auswahl aus seinen Soloalben und selbstverständlich einige markante Hits der 20-jährigen Dire Straits-Ära auf einer Europatournee, die ihn auch nach Deutschland führt. Salem, Hamburg, Dortmund, Mainz, Mannheim, Köln, Bad Kissingen, Stuttgart, Hannover, Berlin, Leipzig und München sind vom 31. Mai bis 11. Juli die Stationen. Sein neues Album „Tracker“ wird Anfang des Jahres veröffentlicht. Mark Knopfler, der kreative Dreh- und Angelpunkt der Dire Straits, wird von vielen Experten als Schlüsselinterpret der Rockgeschichte eingestuft. Er prägte einen einzigartigen Gitarrenstil und den für ihn typischen Sprechgesang, der dennoch eindrucksvolle melodische Züge trägt. Er gilt als ironischer Geschichtenerzähler, der ein Schicksal in drei bis vier Strophen auf den Punkt bringen kann. Sein Œuvre spiegelt Vielseitigkeit und Schaffenskraft des in Glasgow geborenen Musikers, der in Englisch promovierte, Vorlesungen hielt und seine akademische Karriere schließlich gegen die Gitarre eintauschte.

  • Newsies Digital Program
    Director’s Note This show was neither for me, nor about me. It was for the kids. It was for every theatre person who has been denied putting on theatre for the last year. It was for artists, and technicians, and house managers, and designers, and everyone across the country who lost their jobs in the performing arts and have no idea when or if they will be able to return. This show was to let people know that theatre will go on, theatre is important, and whether you realize it or not, theatre is needed. This was a show that I thought we might never be able to pull off, but just to prove that people are capable of so much more than we give ourselves credit for - I decided to do it for these kids.

  • The Guitar Guru
    Bjørn L. Drengsgaard ● Görgengasse 23/8/6, 1190 Wien, AT ● Phone: +43 677 61915756 ● Email: [email protected] The guitar guru By Bjørn L. Drengsgaard Many consider him one of the greatest guitar slingers in the world. Others think that his songs are best used as sleeping pills. The British musician Mark Knopfler has a tendency to make people dis- agree. He has done that ever since he entered the international music scene with a red Fender guitar around his neck more than 25 years ago and started creating a name for himself. What Knopfler’s fans especially admire him for is his elegant fingerpicking technique and his melancholy, personal songs that he sings with his subdued, hoarse voice. In the general public he is probably most well-known as the frontman of Dire Straits, one of the world's biggest rock groups up through the 1980s. Mark Knopfler was born in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1949. Later, the family moved to northern England, where Knopfler studied to become a journalist and later an English teacher. Although he did use both his educations professionally, the guitar appealed more to the young Knopfler. As a teenager, he fell in love with the instrument and managed to save up £50 for his first electric guitar. From the mid-1960s he played in various local groups in Leeds, and in 1973 he went to London to try his luck as a rock musician. Here his guitar was heard in various contexts, but without great success. In 1977 he moved into a flat with his brother David, who also played guitar, and the bassist John Illsley.

  • Through People Like Me - Mass Anthem
    Through People Like Me - Mass Anthem Mass Anthem is a Christian pop band originally from the Chicagoland area now located in Nashville, TN. The trio is comprised of brothers, Chad and Tyler Sowards, as well as Joey Atansio. Their debut album 'ALIVE' was released in June 2014 followed by their Single 'To Get To Me' in April 2016 and 'The Real Me' in January 2017. Their second full-length Independent album entitled "Through People Like Me" is set to release June 2, 2017. "We hope this new album will capture our creativity and energy that we want to bring to the stage," says Tyler. "Our goal is to create a diverse album of fun, energetic music with lyrics that will encourage people to live a life for Someone greater than themselves." Ben Calhoun, lead singer of popular Christian band Citizen Way, has been a major catalyst of Mass Anthem since its' founding, involved in much of the writing and producing of Mass Anthems latest singles. "Having Ben has been such a blessing to us. He's taught us so much about the music industry and given us opportunities we wouldn't have otherwise had," says Chad, lead singer of the group. Mass Anthem relocated to Nashville, TN in pursuit of signing with a major Record Label in 2016, and has high hopes that the coming album will launch them to the next level. "It's been amazing making new connections with writers and promoters since moving to Nashville. We know we are taking steps in the right direction and are so excited for what the future holds," says Chad.
