SUMMARY:Ruthie Foster
DESCRIPTION:Ruthie Foster’s ninth studio album represents a new high water mark for the veteran blues artist—a collection of songs possessing pure power\, like a tidal wave of musical generosity. Healing Time finds Foster pushing her boundaries as a singer and songwriter more than ever before\, creating a truly live-sounding atmosphere with the help of her band\, who sound refreshingly loose and lived-in throughout these 12 songs. We’ve all been in need of some healing in recent times\, and Foster’s latest provides a guide for how to move through the world with equal parts compassion and resolve. \nHealing Time is the latest jewel in Foster’s accomplished career\, which includes multiple Grammy nominations and collaborations with fellow luminaries like Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks. For her latest\, Foster contributed more to the writing process than she had on any of her previous albums\, effectively refining her own songcraft in the process. “With this album\, I dug deep and tried to go for the best way to write\,” she explains. “This album says a lot about the period we were making it in\, and how I wanted to find my way out of it.” \nWork on the album began in lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020\, as Foster enlisted previous collaborators like Gary Nicholson and Grace Pettis to pitch in during the writing process—as well as every member of her band. “I wanted my band involved in the entire process of this album\,” she explains\, and they also played a large role in recreating the sound that Foster had become drawn to after spending time with her vinyl collection. “I was aiming to keep these songs sounding like they came from that era\, which says a lot about where I am in my life\, too.” \nVeteran producer Mark Howard (Willie Nelson\, Lucinda Williams) came in to bring new ideas to Foster’s table as recording began at Studio 71 West in Austin\, TX\, New Orleans’ famed Esplanade Studios\, and Blue Rock Studio in Wimberley\, TX. “Mark’s ability to turn a song’s arrangement upside down was intriguing and sometimes challenging for me\,” she states. “It was a lot to wrap my head around\, but he made me think outside of the box I didn’t even know I was in.” \nProducer Dan Barrett\, who also worked with Foster on 2017’s Joy Comes Back\, then took the helm at Black Pumas co-bandleader Adrian Quesada’s famed Electric Deluxe studio in Austin. Along with several Black Pumas members\, Barrett brought in a collection of Austin’s finest backing musicians\, like Glenn Fukunaga (The Chicks\, Shawn Colvin). “With Dan onboard we were able to find the glue to these songs sonically\, and he brilliantly melded my familiar Texas blues-Americana sound with what Mark pulled out of me in New Orleans\,” Foster says. “This combination gave these songs a breath of fresh air\, and it all came together very organically.” \nHealing Time’s title—as well as its burst-of-sunshine title track\, which features pedal steel legend Robert Randolph—is a reference not only to the trials many have faced over the last several years\, but also the necessity of what Foster does as an artist. “I hear fans tell me that the music we make is very spiritually healing\,” she says. “The experience of dealing with my own grief after losing a band member a year before the pandemic while navigating around zoom school with my daughter and trying to figure out what to do with myself was tough but necessary. When I look at it as a whole it was all very healing for me which is pretty much how I try to live my life. There’s always time for healing\, if you give it time.” \nAnd Healing Time is ultimately a work that explores such extremes as being human often brings to the surface\, reminding listeners that even when we feel like we’re at the top\, we’re ultimately still finding our way—a beautiful reflection of the essence of living itself.

SUMMARY:Blair Crimmins & the Hookers
DESCRIPTION:Blair Crimmins began his current music career in Atlanta\, Georgia\, with a drive to bring Ragtime and 1920’s style Dixieland Jazz to new audiences. While playing small rock clubs around the Southeast he developed a sound that is at once modern while being deeply rooted in the past. He has toured the U.S and Italy playing festivals and has opened for acts such as Preservation Hall Jazz Band and Old Crow Medicine show. A multiinstrumentalist on guitar\, banjo and piano\, Crimmins writes songs and arrangements for a classic New Orleans style horn section consisting of trumpet\, clarinet and trombone. His debut release “The Musical Stylings Of” became a college radio sensation on WRAS Atlanta making him the most requested band on the air. In 2012 Crimmins showed his musical diversity by writing and recording the full score for the independent short film “Old Man Cabbage”. The following year\, Crimmins was the critics pick for Best Song Writer of 2013 in Creative Loafing’s Best of ATL issue. His next album entitled Sing-a-longs! earned him a nomination at The Georgia Music Awards for Best Jazz Artist. After years of relentless touring the country and abroad Blair Crimmins released his 4th album of original ragtime music You Gotta Sell Something (2017)\, as well as a children’s album All Aboard (2019) and a 5th full length record featuring swinging covers of his favorite artists ranging from Louis Armstrong to David Bowie entitled “Okay Boom!” in 2021.

SUMMARY:World Indigenous Day Celebration ft. Digging Roots w/ Topknot opening
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we celebrate World Indigenous Day with two incredible Indigenous bands and opening remarks by members of our local Indigenous communities. \nDigging Roots breathe life into songs from their land\, Turtle Island\, to raise their voices in solidarity with a global chorus of Indigenous artists\, activists and change-makers. \nFor over a decade\, two-time JUNO Award winners Digging Roots have traveled the world with a joyful message of resistance\, celebrating Anishinaabe and Onkwehón:we traditions of round dance and interconnectedness. As Roots Music Canada says\, the band is “…badass\, empowering and hopeful all at the same time.” \nDigging Roots takes you on a journey through tall grass\, sweet waters and unconditional love in a joyous and powerful celebration on their 4th album Zhawenim (2022). Led by the electrifying current of husband-and-wife team\, ShoShona Kish and Raven Kanatakta\, the 6-piece band responds to a majestic and spiritual call from ShoShona’s earthy vocals and Raven’s exhilarating guitar mastery through a fusion of blues\, soul and rock n’roll. For long time fans or new audiences\, their constantly evolving live show opens a space\, wherever they may be in the world\, for healing\, compassion\, unconditional love and Baamaadziwin (the good life). Constantly interweaving between drum culture and guitar dialects\, Raven and ShoShona were raised in cultural families that have continued to resist oppression and colonialism. \nMore than a band\, Digging Roots have taken their place at the frontline of the fight for equity and representation in the arts\, with involvement in industry advocacy and organization to empower arts communities worldwide. ShoShona is the founder of the International Indigenous Music Summit and the music label Ishkōdé Records. \nRaven\, who studied at Berklee College of Music\, “grew up in a small Anishinabe Rez called Winneway in north-western Quebec. It’s formally called Long Point First Nation. It’s where my grandfather and father taught me to hunt\, trap and fish. I also spent my summers on my mother’s Mohawk Rez of Kahnàwa:ke.” ShoShona’s “family is from Batchewana and a part of the Three Fires Midewiwin Lodge.” \nTopKnotTopKnot concert\nTrenton Wheeler produces and performs under the stage name Topknot (short for his tribal given name Owl Topknot Feather)\, combining influences of 80s synth-pop & rock with twangy guitars and cinematic climaxes reminiscent of a spaghetti western soundtrack. Honoring his Blackfeet/Métis heritage\, Trenton continues the tradition of Northern Plains grassing and regularly hosts educational enrichment programs and speaking events. He is an advocate for Indigenous peoples and has served on the board of directors for the Native American Indian Association of Tennessee.

SUMMARY:Ferguson Voices: Disrupting the Frame
DESCRIPTION:Dayton Metro Library is pleased to host Ferguson Voices: Disrupting the Frame\, a profound exhibit produced by the University of Dayton Human Rights Center that will be on display through Friday\, August 30\, in the Opportunity Space @ St. Clair at the Main Library. \n  \nIn 2014\, after Michael Brown was shot and killed by police\, a 100-day uprising followed in Ferguson\, Missouri. Ferguson Voices features interviews and photographs of twelve individuals who responded to Brown’s death by showing contributions to their community during the protest – acting\, teaching\, repairing\, and advancing the cause of justice. \n  \nInitially created in 2016\, after nine University of Dayton students traveled to Missouri to interview people who were affected by the unrest of 2014\, Ferguson Voices seeks to humanize the individuals who witnessed and shaped the uprising and to show visitors that when communities are faced with difficult moments\, we all have a role to play. \n  \nA companion program hosted by the University of Dayton Human Rights Center will be held in the Opportunity Space @ St. Clair at 6 pm\, on Tuesday\, August 27. It will involve a panel discussion and provide a space for community members to come together and process the recent killing of 16-year-old Brian Moody by Dayton City Police. \n  \nThis discussion will utilize the exhibit to focus attention on police violence and community response and will re-ignite questions about the use of lethal force\, public trust and accountability\, and over-policing and radical discrimination. The announcement of panel guests in attendance will be forthcoming. \n  \nThis is the second time DML has had the honor of hosting Ferguson Voices; it first appeared at the Northwest Branch in 2017. \n  \nFor more information\, visit DaytonMetroLibrary.org or call the Library’s Ask Me Line at 937.463.2665. \n

SUMMARY:Alanna Royale
DESCRIPTION:Laugh out loud funny and fearlessly outspoken\, one doesn’t have to wonder if Alanna Royale is in the room. Since storming the Nashville scene in 2013\, Royale has repeatedly made her presence known from calling out politicians she can’t stand to calling monopoly on her classically minded\, R&B sound. In her first year alone\, the artist landed headlining slots at Nashville Pride Fest and won “Road to Bonnaroo” with only an EP under her belt. After fine tuning her swagger fronting punk bands\, it appeared Royale had found her perfect niche marrying soul and pop. Or so she thought.

SUMMARY:Toubab Krewe
DESCRIPTION:Some music cannot be found on a map or within iTunes categories. Some music is so original it seems snatched from the great\, invisible substrata that runs below all human activity\, a sound aching to be born without a flag or fixed allegiance – free\, questing\, overflowing with immediate\, tangible life. This is the music of Toubab Krewe\, the vibrant instrumental powerhouse that creates a sonic Pangaea that lustily swirls together rock\, African traditions\, jam sensibilities\, international folk strains and more. While nearly impossible to put into any box\, it takes only a few moments to realize in a very palpable way that one is face-to-face with a true original who recognizes no borders in a march towards a muscular\, original\, globally switched-on sound. \nFormed in 2005\, Toubab Krewe has tenaciously honed their craft through relentless touring and a fierce dedication to carving out something they can truly call their own. The fruits of this hard work can be heard on their latest release\, STYLO\, (March 2nd\, 2018). What Justin Perkins (Kora\, Kamelngoni\, guitar\, percussion)\, Terrence Houston (drumset)\, Drew Heller (guitar\, organ)\, Justin Kimmel (bass\, keys)\, and Luke Quaranta (Djembe\, Congas\, Dundun\, Sangban\, Kinkini) have wrought on STYLO reflects the many miles and musical journeys that have transpired since their last studio album\, TK2. \nThis is a band that actively draws inspiration from whatever source floats into their purview\, something they’ve exhibited in their decade and a half of heavy gigging\, including regular appearances at major U.S. festivals like Bonnaroo\, High Sierra\, Rothbury and Wakarusa\, and abroad at such legendary gatherings as the Festival In The Desert in Essakane\, Mali. Whether on their own or collaborating with luminaries like the Last Poets’ Umar Bin Hassan or Uncle Earl’s Rayna Gellert\, Toubab Krewe has already earned the attention and respect of a broad musical community. \nToubab carries echoes of African greats like Ali Farka Toure\, Orchestra Baobab and Salif Keita\, no doubt picked up during the group’s travels to study and live in Guinea\, Ivory Coast and Mali. But what truly differentiates Toubab Krewe from other Statesiders inspired by African music is how they innovate on what they’ve learned instead of simply recreating tradition. Toubab Krewe carves out a new trail honoring the African originators they admire by making something alive and contemporary.
