  • POSTPONED A Change of Tone, a Music Exhibition

    Crosstown Arts, The Green Room 1350 Concourse Ave., Suite 280, Memphis, TN, United States

    ** This event is postponed until further notice.
    In A Change of Tone, musicians will “exhibit” new work in one venue while performing in another, creating a non-traditional listening experience.

    The goal of A Change of Tone is to invite artists to sonically and musically explore the varied interrelations between technical musical themes and humanity: what we experience, observe, believe, and imagine within the realms of our intellectual capabilities.

  • POSTPONED Crosstown Arthouse presents The Muthers

    Crosstown Theater 1350 Concourse Ave., Memphis, TN, United States

    ** This event is postponed until further notice.
    We can’t say it better than the incredible American Genre Film Archive, who are lovingly saving films like this for folks like us to show again in all their glory on a giant screen!

    Says the American Genre Film Archive: “Sleaze ahoy! Directed by heroic smut merchant Cirio Santiago (TNT Jackson, Vampire Hookers) and shot on-the-cheap in the Philippines, The Muthers is like stepping into one of Martin Denny's exotica LPs while it plays in Jess Franco's living room. Filled with karate chops and epic psychedelic-funk jams, this is the story of two pirates (Jeanne Bell and Rosanne Katon) who rob and loot on the China Seas, get sent to a women's prison presided over by a sadistic warden, then revolt and turn the sky black with the smoke from their machine guns. In other words, this is the only revolutionary-pirate-women-in-prison movie that you'll ever need. Restored from the original negative for maximum savagery!”
    The Crosstown Arthouse Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent, international, historically significant, artistic, experimental, cult, underground and documentary features.

    Join us in The Green Room at Crosstown Arts for a performance by U.S. Girls. The highly anticipated seventh album by U.S. Girls, the protean musical enterprise of multi-disciplinary artist Meg Remy, is entitled Heavy Light.

  • POSTPONED Willie Farmer with Tim Easton in The Green Room

    Crosstown Arts, The Green Room 1350 Concourse Ave., Suite 280, Memphis, TN, United States

    This event is postponed until further notice.

    Join us in The Green Room at Crosstown Arts for a performance by Mississippi bluesman Willie Farmer, with an opening set by Tim Easton. Willie Farmer is living proof that Mississippi continues to produce deep blues. The 63-year-old guitarist is neither a soul modernist nor revivalist, but simply a small-town auto mechanic who’s never shaken his love for old school legends like Muddy, Wolf, and Lightnin’.
