SUMMARY:Crosstown Arthouse presents The Harder They Come
DESCRIPTION:WITH A PIECE IN HIS HAND\, HE TAKES ON THE MAN! The epochal cultural moment that first brought reggae to the international stage\, made Jimmy Cliff a star\, and demonstrated how music can change the world.

This SCARFACE-y blend of crime drama and musical tracks Cliff’s country-boy-in-search-of-fame through Jamaica under the guises of laborer\, recording artist\, convict\, ganja dealer\, and outlaw folk hero. Before THE HARDER THEY COME\, the collective perception of a “foreign film” was limited to the Bergmans and the Kurosawas of the world. This game-changer forever blew those doors off — and it still hasn’t lost a drop of its cool\, its edge\, or its way of making you dance. — American Genre Film Archive — Perry Henzell/1972/109 minutes/Rated R \nThe Crosstown Arthouse Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground and documentary features. \nFilms begin at 7:30 pm sharp at Crosstown Theater\nTickets are $5 (at the door only)

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arthouse presents Blue Collar
DESCRIPTION:BLUE COLLAR was Paul Schrader’s debut as a director\, and making the movie reportedly literally drove him insane. BLUE COLLAR is a caper about three auto workers (Richard Pryor\, Harvey Keitel\, and Yaphet Kotto) who rob their union and unexpectedly uncover an illegal loan operation and ties to organized crime. BLUE COLLAR is about corruption\, the impossible grind of the working class\, powerlessness\, and most definitely\, the use of racial difference as a weapon by the oppressors against the oppressed. \nThe Crosstown Arthouse Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground and documentary features. \nFilms begin at 7:30 pm sharp at Crosstown Theater\nTickets are $5 (at the door only)

SUMMARY:The Cutaway Acoustic Guitar Series: Calum Graham
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents The Cutaway Acoustic Guitar Series\, a monthly concert series showcasing internationally acclaimed guitarists. \nThis series is in partnership with the Little Rock-based Argenta Acoustic Music Series. February’s performance features Canadian fingerstyle guitarist Calum Graham in an intimate\, solo performance. \nTickets: $20\nDoors at 7pm | Performance 7:30pm \nAt only 26 years old\, Calum Graham has already enjoyed a career that would be the envy of most artists twice his age. He was recently named one of the World’s Top 30 Guitarists under 30 by Acoustic Guitar Magazine. His signature playing style has enthralled millions of listeners on YouTube and Spotify\, which has led to tours across America\, Europe\, and China. Calum plays both the acoustic and harp guitar in his live set\, and his original melodies are guaranteed to pull at your heartstrings. His music embraces elements of folk\, world\, and blues — all built upon the foundation of the fingerstyle technique. “The most promising young guitarist I’ve seen. His command of the guitar is already really impressive!” — Andy McKee \nBorn in British Columbia and raised in High River\, Alberta\, Graham’s musical journey first took flight when he began playing the guitar at the age of 13. Five years later in the summer of 2010\, Graham attended the Canadian Guitar Festival and entered the prestigious Canadian Fingerstyle Guitar Competition. Impressed with his original compositions\, the judges awarded Graham with a first place finish; a feat no other teenager has accomplished in the history of the festival. The clip of his winning performance has now generated almost 1 million hits on YouTube. \nAs Calum Graham’s name continued to grow in Alberta and across Canada for his guitar work and musicianship\, Graham proved that his talent was not limited to his extraordinary ability to play the guitar. In 2011\, Graham won the Canada’s Walk of Fame nationwide “A Song For Canada” contest based on his poetic acuteness. His winning poem was used in the song “I’m Here\, (A Song For Canada).” The song was performed by Chantal Kreviazuk and co-written by Graham\, Raine Maida (Our Lady Peace) and Stephen Moccio (“I Believe”\, 2010 Vancouver Olympics theme song/”Wrecking Ball” – Miley Cyrus).”. “Calum’s entry resonated strongly among the judges. His poem celebrates the cultural mosaic that is Canada. He has captured the diversity of this country – something that we as a nation are renowned for and proud of.” – Stephan Moccio

SUMMARY:Opening Reception — Here Is Where We Meet
DESCRIPTION:On view through April 19 \nHere Is Where We Meet will feature large-scale paintings and works on paper by Dennis Congdon and Susan Lichtman. \nThe artists’ styles are decidedly distinct and yet united by the deliberate attention given to the way in which a painting is constructed. Congdon makes playfully saturated works with the use of a stencil template. Lichtman is a figurative painter of domestic spaces who understands the practice of painting to be a “life of the mind.”  Here is Where We Meet looks at how each artist riffs on the language of painting as well as the written word. \nThroughout the exhibition\, writers and poets will be invited to respond to the visual works.  Curator Laurel Sucsy states\, “I am inspired by the relationship between painters and poets and how artists working in each discipline use the other for inspiration and structure.” \nIn the month of April\, the gallery will host a poetry night during which a collection of responses will be presented to the public. \nPlease join the artists and curator for a discussion on Saturday\, Feb 29th at 1:00 in the West Gallery. \nCurated by Laurel Sucsy\nThis LifeWorks exhibition was made possible by the generous support of the Don Pelts Memorial Foundation. \nAbout Dennis Congdon:\nDennis Congdon holds a BFA in Painting from RISD and an MFA from Yale. In 1983\, he won the Prix de Rome and became a Fellow at the American Academy in Rome.  He has taught painting and drawing at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Tyler School of Art and has been on the faculty at RISD since 1984.

SUMMARY:Gurf Morlix in The Green Room
DESCRIPTION:Join us in The Green Room at Crosstown Arts for a performance by singer-songwriter Gurf Morlix. \nTickets: $10\nDoors at 7pm | Performance at 7:30pm \nThere was a time\, and not that long ago in the grand scheme of things\, when Gurf Morlix didn’t really think of himself as a songwriter. A guitar player\, sure — armed from the get-go with the dead-aim chops and cool-handed confidence of a natural-born gunslinger. Later on\, he took on the mantle of producer too\, parlaying his myriad strengths as an ace sideman into an equally lauded career helping a veritable who’s who of the most formidable poets in Americana find their “growl” and cut their deepest grooves on record. But songwriter? That handle took him a bit longer to fully embrace. \nNevermind the fact that his perspective on the matter was inevitably skewed by his years of working with such grading-curve-blowing talents as Blaze Foley\, Lucinda Williams\, Butch Hancock\, Robert Earl Keen\, Mary Gauthier\, and Ray Wylie Hubbard: a high bar is a high bar\, and Morlix\, for all of his famed minimalist aesthetic both onstage and in the studio\, has never been one to cut corners when it comes to quality. \nThrough the years\, Morlix also produced such artists as Lucinda Williams\, Ray Wylie Hubbard\, Tom Russell\, Butch Hancock\, Ian “Mac” McLagan\, Slaid Cleaves\, Michael Penn\, the Pinedogs\, and the Setters. His numerous recording credits include works by Jerry Lee Lewis\, Buddy Miller\, Peter Case\, Bob Neuwirth\, Trish Murphy\, Marvin Etzioni\, Andrew Hardin\, Jim Lauderdale\, Don Walser\, Michael Penn\, Linda McRae\, Danny Tate\, and Mojo Nixon\, among others.

Stax classics and Muscle Shoals hits filled the family jukebox\, along with songs by Billy Joel\, the Beach Boys\, and Motown groups. Nick later moved to Nashville\, where he released a pair of acclaimed albums before heading west to Austin. Even so\, that childhood soundtrack — a blend of roots\, rhythm\, and raw melody — always felt like home. \nMidway\, Pagliari’s third record — and first in over a decade — finds him revisiting the sounds that helped shape his love for music. Fueled by sharp songwriting\, blasts of brass\, swirling organ\, and rootsy arrangements\, it’s an Americana album that focuses on Memphis soul rather than Nashville twang. \nInfluenced by icons like Tom Petty\, Van Morrison\, and the Band\, his songs have always packed a direct punch\, rooted in the fuss-free appeal of his voice and folksy songwriting. Those same ingredients ground Midway\, but so does Pagliari’s broadened perspective. Those milestones rear their heads throughout Midway\, influencing songs like “The Heart is a Muscle” — a salute to his wife\, filled with horn arrangements by producer/multi-instrumentalist Jon Estes (Abigail Washburn\, Langhorne Slim)\, grooves from drummer Jamie Dick (Rhiannon Giddens\, Milk Carton Kids)\, and Robbie Robertson-worthy guitar riffs by Jeremy Fetzer (Steelism) — and the heartland rocker “Damn These Words\,” written from the perspective of his autistic son. \nThis is an album whose warm\, vintage-inspired sound nods to the past while pushing toward something new. The road goes on forever\, and Pagliari — midway through or not — is charting his own course.

SUMMARY:Alice Hasen & the Blaze with Blueshift Ensemble in The Green Room
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Alice Hasen & the Blaze with an opening performance by Blueshift Ensemble in The Green Room. \nTickets: $10\nDoors at 7 pm | Show at 7:30 pm \nBorn in Vermont and based in Memphis\, Alice Hasen is a professional violinist\, recording artist\, and songwriter. She leads Alice Hasen & the Blaze and is part of the Blackwater Trio\, an acoustic rock band. Alice is known for her unique playing style\, which combines the virtuosity of her classical upbringing with the freedom and creativity of improvisation. \nShe has been called “one in a million” by Alan Rowoth\, founder of folkmusic.org\, and “a monster talent” by Jim Hurst\, nationally acclaimed guitarist. She is most at home at the crossroads of genre\, pushing the traditional sounds of violin and fiddle out of their comfort zones and into the realms of jazz\, pop\, funk\, and rock. \nIn September 2019\, Alice released her debut solo album\, “Violintro\,” which features songs written and co-written by Alice and performances by Memphis musicians. Bluff City Life called Violintro “an impressive showcase of the sheer breadth of Hasen’s talents across all genres… Hasen has made her Violintro as an emerging star.” Ric Chetter of Radio Memphis called it “one of the most dynamic sounds out there.” \nBlueshift is a Memphis­-based contemporary chamber music ensemble dedicated to bringing artists and audiences together through artistic collaboration. By programming both new and existing classical repertoire alongside multi­-genre collaborations\, Blueshift aims to connect a wider audience to today’s classical music. The ensemble draws upon Memphis’s uniquely diverse musical heritage by combining classical music with popular music genres such as rock\, blues\, soul\, and hip hop and featuring local musicians\, visual artists\, and composers. The astronomical term “blueshift” indicates an object’s moving closer toward the observer. Blueshift aims to bring concert music and art out of the concert hall and into the Memphis community.
