Brotherhood" “Timeless, Deeply Soulful and Uplifting Gospel-Drenched Blues, Street Corner Doo-Wop, Ballads, R&B, Country and Funk.” –NEW YORK TIMES
New from THE HOLMES BROTHERS ! brotherhood" “Timeless, deeply soulful and uplifting gospel-drenched blues, street corner doo-wop, ballads, R&B, country and funk.” –NEW YORK TIMES “Fervent, inspired and joyful blues, R&B, soul, roadhouse rock and gospel… beautiful harmonies, true magic.” –NPR Over the course of a 30-year career, with ten acclaimed albums and thousands of live performances, revered roots trio The Holmes Brothers—Wendell Holmes on guitar, piano and vocals, Sherman Holmes on bass and vocals, brother-in-spirit Popsy Holmes on drums and vocals—have garnered heaps of critical praise and countless loyal fans. They have created a timeless blend of blues, soul, funk and country, highlighted by their heavenly gospel-inspired vocal harmonies. Brotherhood is a testament to the uplifting musical The band’s new Alligator Records album, Brotherhood, power that comes from the close-knit, fraternally produced by Glenn Patscha (Ollabelle, Marc Cohn), telepathic relationship of The Holmes Brothers. The Chris Bruce (Me’Shell NdegéOcello, Seal) and Hector album is full of deeply soulful performances, from the Castillo (Brazilian Girls, David Bowie), is another rocking Wendell original Stayed At The Party to the stellar chapter in their storied and still-evolving sweet harmonies of Ted Hawkins’ I Gave Up All I Had, history. It’s their most bluesy album yet, with the to Sherman’s intense Passing Through to the doo-wop band digging deep to deliver roadhouse wisdom, late- splendor of Popsy’s falsetto vocals on the Stax classic My night doo wop, soulful R&B and a proto-rock ‘n’ roll Kind Of Girl. -
Contemporary American Playwriting the Issue of Legacy
CONTEMPORARY AMERICAN PLAYWRITING The Issue of Legacy Jason Grote, Caridad Svich, and Anne Washburn in conversation with Ken Urban espite proclamations to the contrary, there is a surge of new writing in the American theatre. Not plays masquerading as films or TV shows, but seri- ous plays written by writers with a passionate commitment to the stage. DBut since this new generation of theatre artists is less centralized than previous ones, working in cities and towns across the U.S., it is hard to talk about a specific movement or scene. For those working in New York City, Off-Off Broadway no longer adequately describes the theatre that these playwrights create. Such writers do not want to be defined in relation to Broadway, for Broadway ceased to be a venue for adventurous new writing decades ago. This conversation is an attempt by four playwrights to define some of the identifying characteristics and concerns of this new writing. The starting point is the issue of legacy: How do the historical avant-garde, the Language Playwrights of the 1970s and 80s (Mac Wellman, Jeffrey Jones, Len Jenkin), and the classics influence contemporary playwriting? To gain a better sense of what is happening now, it proves beneficial to look back. The conversation featured Jason Grote, Caridad Svich, and Anne Washburn. Jason Grote is the recipient of the 2006 P73 Playwriting Fellowship and co-chair of the SoHo Rep Writer/Director Lab. He is writing The Wal-Mart Plays for the Working Theater in New York. Caridad Svich is a resident playwright at New Dramatists and editor of Trans-Global Readings: Crossing Theatrical Boundaries and Divine Fire: Eight Contemporary Plays Inspired by the Greeks. -

SING for JUSTICE, MICHIGAN! an Interdisciplinary Event That Calls for Musicians Artists and Scholars to Consider Their Role As Ambassadors for Change
In collaboration with The American Choral Directors Association Presents SING FOR JUSTICE, MICHIGAN! An interdisciplinary event that calls for musicians artists and scholars to consider their role as ambassadors for change With performances and special guests: Stacey Gibbs, guest conductor Shara Nova, presenter Detroit Women’s Choir, Arianne Abela EMU Choral Ensembles, Brandon Johnson, Liza Calisesi Maidens, & Aaron Pollard MSU Youth Chamber Choir, Kyle Zeuch Oakland University Choral, Mike Mitchell Student & Faculty Panel, Harry Bhogal Peter Higgins, Women’s and Gender Studies Department Michael Doan, Philosophy Department Mary Larkin, LGBT Resource Center Candice Crutcher, Nat’l Assoc. for the Advancement of Colored People & Director of Political Action for SGA Amy Johnson, Communications, Media & Theatre Arts Friday, November 10, 2017 Pease Auditorium Welcome! The Eastern Michigan University Choral Department and the Michigan American Choral Directors Association are so pleased to welcome you to Sing for Justice, Michigan! Music has always been way for people to express themselves and the call for justice is not new to our age. We each understand that the arts have a role to play, and that is why we are here. To understand and to maximize that role is critical to the artist and we are here to discuss the intersection of arts and justice issues. While we have differences among us, the arts can be a common ground for people of myriad backgrounds, whether those variations be political, religious, cultural, or otherwise. Today we celebrate these differences and we gather to examine how we can help inspire others to celebrate them, as well. EMU and ACDA-MI are thrilled to host renowned composer and arranger Stacey Gibbs, singer-songwriter Shara Nova from the band My Brightest Diamond, and a variety of other presenters and performing ensembles as they seek to find ways to use the arts for justice issues. -

Definitely Erin Court- ney’s A Map Of Virtue and, surprisingly, our Brook- my life. He is one of lyn College/Classic Stage Company Weasel Festival of last August (four plays based on the the smartest and most mystery novels of Norbert Davis – the favorite mystery writer of Ludwig Wittgenstein) by Caitlin generous writers I have Brubaker, Alexandra Collier, Ariel Stess, and Sara Farrington with brilliant direction by Brubaker & ever known; maybe Sarah Rasmussen. Also, I very much liked Thomas Bradshaw’s Burning and Young Jean Lee’s Untitled one of the smartest and Feminist Show. And, of course, Sybil Kempson’s splendid Secret Death Of Puppets, Julia Jarcho’s generous ever to exist. Dreamless Land, and Away Uniform by Tina Satter. AB: What do these (apparently very different) Since he is an avid theatre writers share? theatregoer and a lover MW: An attitude towards story-telling that is very different from the norm in our theatre in of new work, I asked These States. Often their plays operate like a game of three-dimensional chess: characters him for his take on who are firmly located in one apparent world suddenly find themselves in a situation that is the 2011/12 season in drastically elsewhere (A Map of Virtue for in- stance); or we as an audience find ourselves so downtown NYC theatre. -
Friday, November 16, 8Pm, 2007 Umass Fine Arts Center Concert Hall
Friday, November 16, 8pm, 2007 UMass Fine Arts Center Concert Hall Unbroken Chain: The Grateful Dead in Music, Culture, and Memory As part of a public symposium, November 16-18, UMass Amherst American Beauty Project featuring Jim Lauderdale Ollabelle Catherine Russell, Larry Campbell Theresa Williams Conceived by David Spelman Producer and Artistic Director of the New York premier Program will be announced from the stage Unbroken Chain is presented by the UMass Amherst Graduate School, Department of History, Fine Arts Center, University Outreach AND University Reserach. Sponsored by The Valley Advocate, 93.9 The River, WGBY TV57 and JR Lyman Co. About the Program "The American Beauty Project" is a special tribute concert to the Grateful Dead's most important and best-loved albums, Working Man's Dead and American Beauty. In January 2007, an all-star lineup of musicians that Relix magazine called "a dream team of performers" gave the premier of this concert in front of an over-flowing crowd at the World Financial Center's Winter Garden in New York City. The New York Times' Jon Pareles wrote that the concert gave "New life to a Dead classic... and mirrored the eclecticism of the Dead," and a Variety review said that the event brought "a back- porch feel to the canyons of Gotham's financial district. The perf's real fire came courtesy of acts that like to tear open the original structures of the source material and reassemble the parts afresh - an approach well-suited to the honorees' legacy." Now, a select group of those performers, including Ollabelle, Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams, Catherine Russell, and Jim Lauderdale are taking the show on the road.
