SUMMARY:SCYTHIAN
DESCRIPTION:August 7 @ 7:00 PM\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFree Admission\n\n\n/\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGenre:\n\n\n\n\nCeltic Rock/Folk-Rock \n\n\n\n\n\n\nNamed after Ukrainian nomads\, Scythian (sith-ee-yin) plays roots music from Celtic\, Eastern European and Appalachian traditions with thunderous energy\, technical prowess\, and storytelling songwriting\, beckoning crowds into a barn-dance\, rock concert experience. Nashville’s Music City Roots says Scythian is ‘what happens when rock star charisma meets Celtic dervish fiddling’\, and the Washington Post claims “Scythian’s enthusiasm is contagious\, and shows seem to end with everyone dancing\, jumping around or hoisting glasses.” The foursome made up of Alexander Fedoryka (Vocals\, Fiddle\, Mandolin\, Harmonica)\, Danylo Fedoryka (Vocals\, Guitar\, Accordion)\, Ethan Dean (Vocals\, Upright and Electric Bass\, Percussion\, Guitar) and Johnny Rees (Vocals\, Drums\, Percussion) brings various influences together to create a conglomerate which is technically precise and steeped in various folk traditions: The classically trained Fedoryka brothers grew up on Ukrainian folk music and bluegrass\, while Ethan Dean was raised on the greats of 60’s & 70’s folk-rock. Lafayette LA raised Johnny Rees brings a Cajun backbeat to the Celtic-Americana fusion giving Scythian yet another dimension which keeps audiences entertained and moving. Scythian is coming off its most prolific year in 2020 with over 1\,000 hours of live streams during the Covid Lockdowns\, release of two new albums (Roots & Stones and Quaranstream: The Album) and four new music videos. You have to catch the live show to understand why The Cammel City Dispatch said of their Merlefest performance: “[Scythian gives] no quarter in their quest to entertain and bring a joy to their music that gives it an irony-free\, wide open feel of manic possibility. The playing is technically brilliant\, but it is the energy that carries the day.”

SUMMARY:Sitar Sutra – Echoes Of A Timeless Land
DESCRIPTION:From the meditative stillness of an evening raga to the vibrant pulse of folk melodies from across the subcontinent\, SITAR SUTRA — ECHOES OF A TIMELESS LAND is a musical journey through the emotional landscape of one of the world’s great classical traditions. Sitar Maestro Anupama Bhagwat\, one of the foremost exponents of the Imdadkhani Gharana\, guides audiences through an evening that begins in the ancient grammar of Hindustani classical music and gradually opens into the diverse musical cultures of India: devotional music\, the lyrical poetry of thumri\, and folk traditions from Rajasthan\, Bengal\, Kashmir\, and beyond. Through expressive improvisation and brief narrative interludes\, the concert offers audiences an intimate and engaging encounter with a musical world that spans centuries.
