SUMMARY:Circuit des Yeux with Optic Sink
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Circuit des Yeux with Optic Sink in The Green Room. \nTICKETS: $20 advance | $25 at the door\nDoors at 7 pm | Show at 7:30 pm \nPurchase Tickets Here \n“-io is brilliantly extravagant” \n – NPR\, 50 Best Albums of 2021 \n“Fohr explores every nuance in her voice\, soaring and diving to unplumbed depths” \n– The Washington Post \n“A stirring reflection on grief\, oblivion and acceptance\, the album sounds like a fearless free fall into the void.” \n– New York Times \nCircuit des Yeux’s 2021 album -io was ranked on NPR’s 50 Best Albums of 2021\, Pitchfork’s 100 Best Songs of 2021\, and The Wire’s Top 50 Releases of 2021\, among other best of 2021 year-end lists.  \nHaley Fohr is a vocalist\, composer and singer-songwriter based in Chicago\, Illinois. Her musical endeavors focus around our human condition\, and her 10-year career as Circuit des Yeux has grown into one of America’s most successful efforts to connect the personal to the universal. \nShe is most distinctly identified by her 4-octave voice and unique style of 12-string guitar. Her mysterious “Jackie Lynn” project landed her on the cover of Wire Magazine in August of 2016. Her recent works include an Original Soundtrack for Charles Bryant’s silent film Salomé (1923)\, commissioned by Opera North\, and a critically acclaimed 2017 album Reaching For Indigo\, released on Drag City Records. \nCircuit des Yeux’s first studio album since 2017\, -io\, is her first for Matador Records. The sky over -io is Florida’s strange\, radiant orange. It’s a built environment\, unnatural\, made from concrete and glass\, with skyscrapers that stretch to the vanishing point as you gaze up at them. \nIt’s crumbling and suffocating\, a city perpetually on the brink of collapse\, where tension never topples over into catharsis\, where the heat never breaks. \nInside this world and its closed loop of time\, Fohr found herself able to begin moving again. “I was haunted by memories in the pandemic\,” she says. “As someone with PTSD\, memories are all twisted up inside of me in a way that doesn’t help my higher self. Making this album was once again an exercise of trying to relieve myself of some of that darkness in a way that music has always done for me.” \n

SUMMARY:Anika
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Anika\, the project of Berlin-based musician Annika Henderson\, in The Green Room. \nTICKETS: $15 in advance | $20 day of show \nDoors at 7 pm | Show at 7:30 pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnika — the project of Berlin-based musician Annika Henderson\, who is also a founding member of Exploded View — announces Change\, her first new album in over a decade. Her video for “Change” was directed by Sven Gutjahr\, who also directed the video for her recent single\, “Finger Pies.” The follow-up to cult favorite Anika (2010)\, Change is beautifully fraught. The intimacy of its creation and a palpable sense of global anxiety are seemingly baked into the album’s DNA. Spread across nine tracks\, the central feeling of the record is one of heightened frustration buoyed by guarded optimism. The songs offer skittering\, austere electronic backdrops reminiscent of classic Broadcast records or Hi Scores-era Boards of Canada\, playing them against Anika’s remarkable voice — Nico-esque\, beautifully plaintive\, and — in regard to the record’s subject matter — totally resolute. \nHaving worked collaboratively in the past with the likes of BEAK> and Exploded View\, Change was ultimately the product of necessity. After recording the initial ideas by herself at Berlin’s Klangbild Studios\, Anika was joined by Exploded View’s Martin Thulin\, who co-produced the album and played some live drums and bass. “This album had been planned for a little while\, and the circumstances of its inception were quite different to what had been expected\,” says Anika. “This colored the album quite significantly. The lyrics were all written there on the spot. It’s a vomit of emotions\, anxieties\, empowerment\, and of thoughts like — How can this go on? How can we go on?” \nRecorded at a time when literally everyone in the world was being forced to take stock\, rethink\, and reimagine their own place in the cosmos of things\, Anika provides the wisened perspective of an outsider. It’s a perspective that is not lost on the British ex- pat and former political journalist\, and despite the subject matter and the circumstances around its creation\, Change itself is ultimately a treatise on optimism. The title track presents the album’s message writ large: “I think we can change. We all have things to learn\, about ourselves and about each other.” To end the record on such a sanguine note might be one of Change’s most revolutionary gestures. \n“There’s a lot of stuff I want to change\,” says Anika. “Some things I sat down and decided last year\, I had to change about myself and my life. Sometimes it feels helpless\, because the things we want to change are so huge and out of our control. Starting with yourself is always a good place. I think we can change.”

SUMMARY:Hubby Jenkins from the Carolina Chocolate Drops
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Hubby Jenkins from the Carolina Chocolate Drops in the Green Room. \nTickets: $16 in advance | $20 day of show (plus fees)\nDoors open at 7:00pm | Show begins at 7:30pm \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nHubby Jenkins is a talented multi-instrumentalist who endeavors to share his love and knowledge of old-time American music. Born and raised in Brooklyn\, he delved into his Southern roots\, following the thread of African-American history that wove itself through country blues\, ragtime\, fiddle and banjo\, and traditional jazz. \nHubby got his higher musical education started as a busker. He developed his guitar and vocal craft on the sidewalks and subway platforms of New York City\, performing material by those venerable artists whose work he was quickly absorbing. An ambitiously itinerant musician\, he took his show on the road\, playing the streets\, coffee shops\, bars\, and house parties of cities around the country. \nAfter years of busking around the U.S and making a name for himself\, Hubby became acquainted with the Carolina Chocolate Drops. He was an integral part of the Grammy award-winning Carolina Chocolate Drops from 2010 to 2014. Since 2015 to 2018\, he was active in touring and recording member in the Rhiannon Giddens band. He was on her album “Tomorrow Is My Turn” in 2015 and in 2017 “Freedom Highway.” After these projects Hubby’s focus is on solo performances around the world.

SUMMARY:Luke Winslow-King featuring Roberto Luti
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Luke Winslow-King featuring Roberto Luti in the Green Room. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open at 7pm | Show at 7:30pm\nTickets: $15 in advance | $20 at the door (plus fees) \n\nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \n\nLuke Winslow-King is a guitarist\, singer\, producer\, and songwriter. Having spent more than 15 years in New Orleans\, his work is an eclectic mix that combines Mississippi delta blues\, folk music\, traditional jazz\, and roots rock & roll. \nHis songs blend contemporary ideas with styles from bygone eras\, producing a sound that is rustic\, urbane\, elegant\, and entirely his own. \nTuscan Slide Guitar Maestro Roberto Luti’s unorthodox\, angular\, and evocative slide guitar style is based on Mississippi and Chicago blues and is influenced by soul and African roots traditions. During his nearly decade-long residency in New Orleans\, Luti became an integral part of international recording project Playing For Change (PFC). He also laid the original track for One Love\, Higher Ground\, and Gimme Shelter\, which has accumulated over 100 million YouTube plays. \nLuke Winslow King and Roberto Luti have toured extensively in North America and Europe\, appearing on notable stages such as Austin City Limits\, New Orleans JazzFest\, Azkena Rock Festival (Spain)\, Tønder Festival Paradiso (Netherlands)\, Glastonbury (UK)\, Byron Bay Blues Fest (AUS)\, and countless more. \nRecorded in Memphis\, Tennessee\, Winslow-King’s seventh full-length album “If These Walls Could Talk” is to be released May 2022 on Ghost River Records\, featuring Roberto Luti\, Rev. Charles Hodges (Al Green)\, Fat Possum recording artists The Sensational Barnes Brothers\, and was produced by Dominc John Davis (Jack White). Like all of Winslow-King’s work\, “If These Walls Could Talk” continues to propel rugged roots to the vanguard of modern artistic sensibility. \n“They’re one of the most professional\, staunchly original\, and true-to-their-core bands working today.” — American Songwriter \n“Steeped in the muddy Delta blues\, but prickles with the raunch of a more Mid-Western take on the genre.” — Consequence of Sound \n“…he demonstrate[s] a wide range of songwriting worthy of comparison to Jason Isbell and John Fullbright.” — Austin Chronicle

In 2015\, Buck released his debut EP The JBuck Experience\, which the Murfreesboro Pulse cited as “a step towards the direction of this generation’s version of Marvin Gaye” At first glance\, you may confuse him for the ghost of David Ruffin or Prince with his slick style and electrifying performances.

Back in full effect in 2020 with the latest project Bar Talk\, the album explores the reality of situationships\, addiction\, and the millennial black male experience.

SUMMARY:Kyndle Wylde with special guest The PRVLG
DESCRIPTION:Tickets purchased for the original February 3\, 2022 date will be accepted at the May 24\, 2022 rescheduled date. (Please email jenny@crosstownarts.org with questions.) \n\nCrosstown Arts presents singer/songwriter Kyndle Wylde in The Green Room. \nDoors at 7 pm | Show at 7:30 pm\nTICKETS: $12 advance | $15 at the door \nPurchase Tickets Here \nGospel-raised in tiny Bolivar\, Tennessee\, singer/songwriter Kyndle Wylde has a voice that has demanded attention since she started singing in her crib. Kyndle is the lead singer of the Memphis Ukulele Band and a graduate of the University of Memphis. Her voice and harmonies have quickly made her an in-demand singer both onstage and in-studio in the soul city. \nKyndle was living in Nashville when the pandemic hit\, and denied her performance outlet\, she dug deep\, and the songwriting that had always been on the sideline became her mission. Kyndle has been acclaimed for her singing since she’d first stood in front of an audience\, but through songwriting\, she discovered a new voice inside her. The result is a six-song sonic Polaroid of who she is at this moment. Kyndle Wylde’s self-titled debut EP\, released under Memphis International Records\, is out now.

SUMMARY:Ed Gerhard
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents acoustic guitarist Ed Gerhard in the Green Room.\n\nDoors at 7pm | Show begins at 7:30pm\nTickets: $20 advance | $25 at the door\n\nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \n\n\nAbout Ed Gerhard:\n\nPerforming on 6-string\, 12-string\, slide guitar or Acoustic Hawaiian Lap Slide\, Gerhard captivates his audiences with virtuosity\, generosity and sly humor.  Known for his gorgeous tone and compositional depth\, Gerhard can move a listener with a single note. Scott Alalrik of the Boston Globe said it best when he wrote ‘Gerhard does not write instrumentals. He writes songs only a guitar can sing.\n\n\n\nGerhard’s relationship with the guitar began at age 10\, when he happened upon classical guitar master Andrés Segovia on TV. “I’d heard all the pop music on the radio and maybe a little of that 60’s folk stuff\, but this was the first time I’d ever heard the guitar all by itself and the sound just instantly got me\,” he remembers. Ed finally got his first guitar at 14. His initial interest in classical guitar changed dramatically when he heard the music of bluesman Mississippi John Hurt. He quit lessons after the third one. He took some informal lessons with friends and learned by ear\, slowing down LPs to half-speed to pick out the tricky parts. At fifteen\, Ed was already beginning to perform in local church basement coffeehouses\, playing solo and jamming with friends.\n\nIn 1977 Gerhard moved to New Hampshire where he has resided ever since. Joining a thriving folk and acoustic music scene proved invaluable for the young guitarist. “There seemed to be no limitation on places to play back then\, or more importantly\, what you could play” says Ed. “You could play anything you wanted as long as people stayed around and drank.” When Gerhard was not performing solo he could often be seen sitting in with other musicians. “I loved to play\, it didn’t matter if I was solo or sideman.” During this period Ed began composing and arranging music for solo guitar\, using a staggering array of alternative guitar tunings.\n\nBased truly on the quality of his work\, Ed built his considerable reputation\, beginning with his debut album “Night Birds” in 1987. It garnered a spot in the Boston Globe Critics Poll Top 10 Albums of the Year.” Shortly after the album’s release\, Windham Hill Records included Ed on its Guitar Sampler (Vol.1). One of the highlights of the three hundred thousand unit selling Sampler\, “The Handing Down” introduced the world to the beauty of Ed Gerhard’s music. “That one piece made me a lot of friends around the world\,” Ed says.\n\nEd has released his ninth CD “There and Gone.” He was awarded a GRAMMY® for his inclusion on the CD “Henry Mancini; Pink Guitar.” Warner Brothers\, MelBay and Hal Leonard have all released Ed Gerhard’s music in books. His guitar work can be heard on recordings by Arlo Guthrie\, Jorma Kaukonen\, Bill Morrissey  and in the Ken Burns films “Mark Twain” and “ The National Parks: America’s Best Idea.”\n\nEd’s CD “Luna” is featured in Acoustic Guitar Magazine’s 20th Anniversary list of the “240 Essential Albums.” “This soulful album of original compositions rich in melody\, chordal complexity and stylistic variety proves why Gerhard is considered to have the most exquisite acoustic guitar tone on the planet.” -Acoustic Guitar Magazine\n\n\n\nAlong with players like Ben Harper and David Lindley\, Gerhard’s unique approach to the Weissenborn (an acoustic Hawaiian lap slide guitar) is playing a significant role in reinvigorating interest in this somewhat esoteric but beautiful instrument. Ed’s style of Weissenborn playing is unique in that he composes and arranges music for solo Weissenborn with beautiful melodies\, complex chords and moving basslines\, unusual for an instrument that normally serves an accompaniment role. Ed is featured in the book “Lap Steel Guitar” alongside legendary players like Greg Leisz\, David Lindley\, Jerry Byrd and more.\n\nIn a true collaboration of guitarist and guitar maker\, Breedlove Guitars released the “Ed Gerhard Signature Model” guitar. The guitar became one of Breedlove’s best selling guitars and won the “Player’s Choice Award” by  Acoustic Guitar Magazine. Breedlove has released a Gerhard Weissenborn copy in collaboration with Gerhard. Here they have combined traditional design with innovative features and contemporary wood combinations.\n\nEd tours in the US\, Canada\, Europe\, Japan\, China and Korea.

SUMMARY:Makaya McCraven at Crosstown Theater
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents drummer\, producer\, and sonic collagist Makaya McCraven at Crosstown Theater on May 14\, 2022.\n\nDoors open at 6:30pm  | Performance begins at 7:30pm\nTickets: $30 in advance | $35 day of the show\n\nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE\n\n\n\nCrosstown Arts is  currently requiring proof of vaccination or a negative Covid-19 test taken within 72 hours of the event. At-home and rapid tests are accepted. Masks encouraged.\n\nMakaya McCraven is a beat scientist. The bleeding edge drummer\, producer\, and sonic collagist is one of Chicago’s savviest cultural players and a multi-talented force whose inventive process & intuitive\, cinematic style defy categorization.\n\nCalled “a sound visionary” (jazzinchicago.org) who is “not your everyday jazz drummer”(thewordisbond.com)\, McCraven brilliantly moves between genres and pushes the boundaries of jazz and rhythm to create forms of his own.\n\nFrench-born but raised in the Pioneer Valley of Massachusetts by expatriate musician parents\, McCraven studied Jazz at the University of Massachusetts Amherst under the mentorship of jazz luminaries Archie Shepp\, Marion Brown\, and Yusef Lateef\, and eventually went on to develop his chops in Chicago’s burgeoning scene.\n\nHis breakthrough album In the Moment was released with International Anthem RecordingCo. (IARC) in 2015 and subsequently hailed by Turntable Lab as “one of the most important recordings to date in the modern Jazz world.” In The Moment was a dramatic statement byMcCraven\, where he debuted a unique brand of “organic beat music” that quickly launched him into the vanguard of not only Internationally-known jazz artists\, but also a niche genre of next-wave composer-producers blurring the boundaries of jazz & electronic music.\n\nHis recent album releases\, the DJ-style mixtape Highly Rare (IARC\, 2017) as well as an internationally recorded Where We Come From (CHICAGOxLONDON Mixtape) (IARC\, 2018)have been well received by music affectionados all over the world.“ Makaya McCraven is a Chicago staple\, owing some of his rise to the city’s fervent jazz community\, but with Where We Come From\, McCraven and his band have transcended locale. Jazz belongs to the world\, it exists wherever we come from.” (Will Schube\, Passion of the Weiss)\n\nMcCraven has shared stages with artists such as Corey Wilkes\, Bobby (Baabe) Irving (MilesDavis)\, Ari Brown\, and Bernie Worrell and played in some of the world’s best clubs\, festivals and arenas. Yet despite the accolades and fervent touring\, McCraven’s focus remains on both creating music and moving the culture forward.\n\n“As a person of mixed race\, nationality\, and ethnicity I want my identity and contributions to paint a world not bound by genre\, race or national boundaries but unified through a love of music culture and community. Tethered by legacies of the past but looking towards a new\, more universal future.”\n\n\n\n\n\nMakaya McCraven continues the development of his “organic beat music” as well as the work of (what Schube described as) “transcending locale” on his most recent releaseUniversal Beings. A 2xLP album that was recorded at 4 sessions in New York\, Chicago\,London & Los Angeles\, Universal Beings features an A-list of “new” jazz players from those hotbed cities: Brandee Younger\, Tomeka Reid\, Dezron Douglas\, Joel Ross\, Shabaka Hutchings\, Junius Paul\, Nubya Garcia\, Daniel Casimir\, Ashley Henry\, Josh Johnson\, Jeff Parker\, Anna Butters\, Carlos Niño and Miguel-Atwood Ferguson.\n\nwww.MakayaMcCraven.com

She sang with Lionel Hampton and toured with him. She appeared at The Blue Note\, Iridium\, Birdland\, and Dizzy’s Jazz Club at Lincoln Center.

A companion music video filmed in the recording studio is streaming on YouTube now. \nKinfolk 2: See the Birds affirms Nate Smith as one of the most dynamic drummers\, insightful composers\, and engaging bandleaders of his generation\, adept across infinite genres and multiple styles. The album sees Smith joined by an array of diverse fellow artists\, including singers Brittany Howard\, Amma Whatt\, legendary guitarist Vernon Reid\, violinist Regina Carter\, vibraphonist Joel Ross\, rapper Kokayi\, and\, Michael Mayo\, and Stokley Williams (of the pioneering R&B band Mint Condition). \nKinfolk 2: See the Birds marks the second installment in a remarkable trilogy charting Smith’s continuing evolution as a musician and composer. While Kinfolk: Postcards From Everywhere touched upon Smith’s childhood in Chesapeake\, VA\, and the sounds that he absorbed in his family home\, the new album offers an impressionistic portrait of the artist as a young man considering his future in music. Those years saw Smith inspired by the diverse and eclectic riches of Prince and Michael Jackson\, hip-hop and the emerging neo-soul movement\, as well as music associated with the groundbreaking Black Rock Coalition such as Living Colour (whose trailblazing founder\, Vernon Reid\, appears on the new album’s menacing “Rambo”). \nHowever\, Kinfolk 2 is no throwback – Smith reconciles his teenaged influences with the modern jazz sensibilities that he’s demonstrated with not just his solo material but as a sideman with such jazz titans as guitarist Pat Metheny\, bassist Dave Holland\, and saxophonists Ravi Coltrane and Chris Potter. Recorded mostly in two band sessions – June 2019 at Sear Sound in New York City and February 2020 at the Bunker Studio in Brooklyn – the album projects a dreamy\, cinematic sensibility as the music ebbs and flows from wistful downtempo excursions to rugged hip-hop beats\, hypnotic alt-rock leaning tunes to amorous laments. Kinfolk 2 boasts a slightly different lineup for its core ensemble than its predecessor. Saxophonist Jaleel Shaw and bassist Fima Ephron return\, while Smith welcomes guitarist Brad Allen Williams and keyboardist Jon Cowherd to the combo.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arthouse presents THE CHANT OF JIMMIE BLACKSMITH
DESCRIPTION:The Crosstown Arthouse Film Series presents THE CHANT OF JIMMIE BLACKSMITH at Crosstown Theater. \nFred Schepisi / 1978 / 120 minutes / Rated R \nTickets: $5 at the door\nFilms begin at 7:30 pm (sharp!) at Crosstown Theater \nFred Schepisi’s internationally-acclaimed 1978 period masterpiece is Australia’s canonical equivalent of 12 YEARS A SLAVE. Visually enthralling and emotionally resonant filmmaking\, with a central violent eruption that still shakes audiences to their core. THE CHANT OF JIMMIE BLACKSMITH is the shocking tale of an Aboriginal man driven to madness and revenge. Jimmie (Tommy Lewis) is a young half-caste raised in the early 20th century countryside — a boy initiated by his tribe but educated by a stern minister. Jimmy finds a white bride while performing back-breaking farm work\, but cannot escape racist oppression. Fired without pay and discovering that he may not be the true father of his child\, Jimmy cuts a bloody path of retribution through the society which forsook him. \nThe Crosstown Arthouse Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground and documentary features. \nCrosstown Arts is requesting proof of vaccination or a negative Covid test for this event. Please be prepared to present your vaccination card or a negative Covid test taken within 72 hours at check-in.
