SUMMARY:Ben Nichols and Rick Steff (of Lucero)
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Ben Nichols and Rick Steff (of Lucero) in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nSaturday\, May 4\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $25 \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \n\n\nMemphis music legends Lucero’s Ben Nichols and Rick Steff are teaming up to play a very special performance in The Green Room at Crosstown Arts. \n\n\n\nSince forming in Memphis in the late ’90s\, Lucero’s base musical hallmarks have remained similar to the band’s initial sound established with their first record The Attic Tapes. In the history of their expansive discography\, Lucero has evolved and embraced everything from southern rock to Stax-inspired Memphis soul\, whilst simultaneously maintaining their distinctive sonic foundations. Over 20 years later\, dedicated fans of the group still flock to hear the band’s punchy driving rhythms\, punk-rooted guitar licks\, and lyrics that evoke the whiskey drenched sentimentality of Americana singer-songwriters. As expected of any band built to survive\, Lucero has welcomed change over the course of their career\, but it has always been on their terms.

Some people think it’s drawn out\, others think it’s charming. Some folks may appropriate\, but none can replicate. In this culmination of speech\, artists expose their own experiences with southern vernacular. All content will reflect the various interpretations from local Memphis-based artist in their hometown. The show will explore how southern speech has shaped their view of community and themselves. \nHidden Gems\nTo level up we must get out of our own way. That can begin with taking a chance or creating one. In this exhibition we search for the hidden gems in our community. This show includes artists with modest visibility and offers them an opportunity to show up and be uncovered. \nPresenting works by: \nMANE:\nMarco Alexander\nDevin Kirkland\nVel Haynes\nLurlynn Franklin\nMosal Morszart\nCheeto Ryan\nKenneth Alexander\nKiersten N.

SUMMARY:Folk All Y’all: Hayley Reardon
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts and Folk All Y’all present Hayley Reardon in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nSaturday\, May 25\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $20 \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nHayley Reardon (she/her) is a critically acclaimed singer/songwriter and a storyteller in the truest sense of the word. Her songs serve as postcards from an artist brave enough to take the road less traveled. Reardon dove head first into music at the young age of 15\, and has spent much of the past decade writing\, recording and performing music around the world. \nRaised in a coastal Massachusetts town north of Boston\, Reardon spent three years based in Nashville and much of the past six years carrying her songs and stories all over the globe — including a six-month artist-in-residency stay in Dachau\, Germany — gathering experiences\, inspiration and soulful connections. Her ever-deepening music carries a lyrical and melodic weight beyond her years\, being described as “brilliantly moving folk/pop with a lyrical depth and soul” (Performer Magazine) and “a melancholy little masterpiece” (American Songwriter Magazine). No Depression writes “Reardon is truly a treasure.” \n

SUMMARY:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents DAWN OF THE DEAD
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents 45 Years of Fear: an anniversary screening of Dawn of the Dead in Crosstown Theater. \nCrosstown Theater\nThursday\, May 30\, 2024\nTickets: $10 at the door\nDoors at 6:30 p.m. | Films begin at 7:00 p.m. (sharp!) \nGeorge A. Romero / 1978 / 127 minutes / Rated R \nA sequel of sorts to Romero’s 1968 film Night of the Living Dead\, Dawn of the Dead tells the story of a group of survivors during a zombie outbreak who take refuge in a suburban shopping mall while mass hysteria wreaks havoc on their town. \nOnce an omnipresent staple of midnight movie programs\, George A. Romero’s gut-chomping\, genre-defining sequel to Night of the Living Dead has since all but disappeared from movie screens\, as well as every other viewing format available. The cult following is now so large that it is estimated that over 80% of Dawn of the Dead’s fans have never experienced this legendary epic on a real movie screen. We are thrilled to be able to bring the original uncut theatrical version back for the fans and back for the screams! \nThis special anniversary screening will be $10 per admission. \nThe Crosstown Arts Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground\, and documentary features.
