SUMMARY:Folk All Y’all: Daniel Champagne
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts and Folk All Y’all present Daniel Champagne in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nSaturday\, September 7\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $30 \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nOne reviewer recently wrote – ‘Daniel Champagne exudes a natural ease on stage\, as he sings poignant lyrics and beautifully crafted melodies that invariably whisk the heart up with grand romanticism. Coupled with an exhilarating guitar talent that transcends mere acoustic playing to replicate a whole band\, Champagne is just magical’ (themusic.com.au) \nThe story goes that the young Australian singer\, songwriter and one-of-a-kind guitar virtuoso first picked up his instrument of choice as a five-year-old following in the footsteps of a musical father. He began writing songs at 12\, training classically throughout his teens and performing solo wherever he could\, honing his craft and developing what would become the dynamite live show that he is renowned for today. At 18 he left school\, turned professional and hit the road. \nThe following decade saw him release 5 studio albums\, tour relentlessly around the globe with upwards of 300 shows per year\, play some of the biggest festivals under the sun and share stages with the likes of Tommy Emmanuel\, INXS\, John Butler\, Lucinda Williams\, Ani DiFranco\, Judy Collins and Rodrigo y Gabriela. \nIn early 2020 as the COVID pandemic ground all touring to a halt\, Daniel returned to Australia writing music and further honing his craft and will return to international audiences with a swag of new songs and a complete new live show. For fans of guitar\, songs or just artistic expression at it’s finest this show is a must see!

SUMMARY:Kafé Kirk: Kirk Whalum and Mindi Abair
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Kafé Kirk with Kirk Whalum and special guest Mindi Abair in Crosstown Theater. \nSunday\, September 8\, 2024\nCrosstown Theater\nDoors open at 5:30 pm | Show begins at 6 pm\nTickets: General Admission $59 (plus fees) \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nJoin Grammy-winning saxophonist Kirk Whalum for Kafé Kirk\, an ongoing jazz series in Crosstown Theater featuring musical and spiritual collaborations with special guest artists. This very special performance will feature saxophonist Mindi Abair. \nMINDI ABAIR\nTwo-time GRAMMY nominee Mindi Abair is a saxophonist\, vocalist\, and author of “How To Play Madison Square Garden.” You might know her as the featured saxophonist on American Idol\, or from touring and/or recording with Aerosmith\, Duran Duran\, Gregg Allman\, Smokey Robinson\, and more. As a solo artist\, she has consistently topped the Contemporary Jazz and Blues charts\, earning her 1 st GRAMMY nomination in 2014 for Summer Horns and her 2 nd nomination in 2015 for her solo album Wild Heart. In 2019 she launched www.wineandjazz.com bringing together the worlds of wine and music through her wine club and worldwide adventures. \nKIRK WHALUM\nSoulful\, passionate\, stirring…these are the words most often used to describe Kirk’s music. Forged from his Memphis\, Tennessee\, gospel roots and his 1980s initiation into the thriving Houston\, TX nightclub scene\, Kirk’s big\, rich tenor sound is unmistakably his. The ’80s were highlighted by Kirk’s stepping out of his blossoming sideman role and forming his own band. It was there that Kirk ultimately developed both his “voice” and songwriting in the crucible of the local club scene—especially at a rooftop club called Cody’s. It was also in Houston where jazz pianist Bob James “discovered” him and brought him on tour\, which led to five successful albums with Columbia Records\, including Cache\, Kirk’s first #1 album.\nAs well\, Kirk and Bob received a Grammy nomination for their collaboration album\, Joined at the Hip. After moving to Los Angeles\, Kirk became an in demand session player for top artists like\, Barbara Streisand\, Al Jarreau\, Luther Vandross\, Larry Carlton\, Quincy Jones and most notably\, Whitney Houston\, amongst many others. It’s his sax heard on the mega-hit\, “I Will Always Love You.” Kirk soon followed that career high point with his phenomenal hit album released on Warner Bros. Records\, For You\, perhaps the most successful of over 25 solo recordings to date; others include his eclectic\, and much lauded\, Gospel According to Jazz series\, (Chapters 1\, 2\, 3 and 4). In addition to his many solo projects\, Kirk was also a member of the popular soul/jazz group\, BWB\, which features Kirk as the “W” of the group with Rick Braun (trumpet) and Norman Brown (guitar). \nKirk is the recipient of numerous awards and acknowledgements for his musical excellence including three Dove Award nominations\, an NAACP Image Award nomination and has won two Stellar Awards- Gospel music’s highest honor. A twelve time Grammy nominee\, Kirk won his first Grammy award (2011)for Best Gospel Song (“It’s What I Do”—featuring Lalah Hathaway) alongside life-long friend and gifted songwriter\, Jerry Peters.

SUMMARY:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents BEING THERE
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Being There in Crosstown Theater.  \nCrosstown Theater\nThursday\, September 19\, 2024\nTickets: $5 at the door\nDoors at 6:30 pm | Film begins at 7:00 pm (sharp!) \nHal Ashby / 1979 / 130 minutes / Rated PG \nIn one of his most finely tuned performances\, Peter Sellers plays the pure-hearted\, childlike Chance\, a gardener who is forced into the wilds of Washington\, D.C.\, when his wealthy guardian dies. Shocked to discover that the real world doesn’t respond to the click of a remote\, Chance stumbles into celebrity after being taken under the wing of a tycoon (Melvyn Douglas\, in an Oscar-winning performance)\, who mistakes his protégé’s horticultural mumblings for sagacious pronouncements on life and politics\, and whose wife (Shirley MacLaine) targets Chance as the object of her desire. Adapted from a novel by Jerzy Kosinski\, this satire\, both deeply melancholy and hilarious\, is the culmination of Hal Ashby’s remarkable string of films in the 1970s\, and a carefully modulated examination of the ideals\, anxieties\, and media-fueled delusions that shaped American culture during that decade. \nThe Crosstown Arts Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground\, and documentary features.

DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents TAE & the Neighborly in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nSaturday\, September 21\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $20 in advance | $25 at the door \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \n\nTae & The Neighborly\, a Wisconsin-based soul-pop\, R&B group\, found themselves playing music together in a very unconventional way. They were all neighbors\, each one living alone on one floor of a five-story flat.\n\n\n\nCake-baking is a shared passion of the five-member group\, but in the sugar shortages early in the 2020 pandemic\, they found themselves so continually knocking on each other’s doors asking for a single cup of sugar that a group decision was made to all move in together and share cake-baking resources. Since everyone knows all good rhythms begin in the kitchen\, it wasn’t before long that the group began to write and perform together across the nation.\n\n\n\nCritics hail the group as “having more kick than a bagged-up mule” (Rotary Times) and their live show “… going down smoother than a can of [beans] warmed on the campfire” (Cowboy Gazette).

SUMMARY:Dan & Peggy Reeder with Greg Cartwright Krista Wroten
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents a special performance from indie-folk legend Dan Reeder and his daughter Peggy with an opening performance from Memphis-based musos Greg Cartwright and Krista Wroten in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nTuesday\, September 24\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $25 in advance | $30 at the door \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \n\n\nDan Reeder\, Oh Boy Records’ longest signed artist besides John Prine\, is a self-sufficient artist in every aspect of his work. The cover of each one of his albums bears artwork he created himself. He’s built a majority of the instruments you hear. From guitar pickups to microphones\, preamps and mixers. He’s built steel string guitars\, electric guitars\, banjos\, drums\, basses\, cellos\, violins\, clarinets\, and even a saxophone (note from Dan: “I’ll never do that again”). \n\n\n\nThe bluntness of Reeder’s lyrics are softened by his crooning; yet\, even with multi-layered harmonies\, his voice maintains its iconic “wisp”. Reeder’s musical intelligence is as present as ever. You’re hearing every piece of a self-made artist and his multifaceted skill set — from the soulful\, smoky vocal overlay to a singular\, meticulous guitar sound\, but best of all\, you’re hearing the ingenuity that is Dan Reeder.

SUMMARY:ANA•LOG\, Size Matters\, and Still
DESCRIPTION:The Galleries at Crosstown Arts\nFree and open to the public \nANA•LOG – Lester Merriweather \nFourteen Pics is a cumulative project referencing several continuing bodies of work by Lester Julian Merriweather examining the concept of agency over Black Visualization within American Popular Culture. The works in ANA•LOG draw upon several sources: They take direct visual inspiration from the compositions of the 1982-88 Basquiat-Warhol Collaborations. ANA•LOG’s methodology invokes the long-rumored Dr. Dre concept album The Planets. The gestural treatment of the layered and excavated\nsurfaces in ANA•LOG pays homage to the experimental processes of the mid-60s Developer tool works by the late Jack Whitten. Language is key to the works included in ANA•LOG. In breaking down its linguistic aspects\, Merriweather examined varied forms of the word Analog\, defined as “not computerized”; Analog is a counter-cultural delineation that separates itself from the “Digital”. The individually collaged-by-hand elemental “units” in ANA•LOG act in a fashion similar to pixels in the Digital space. Referencing Memphis slang\, “Ana” is a shortened form of “Animosity”. “Log” in this instance serves as a “Recorded History”. ANA•LOG essentially serves as a “Record of Remembered Angers” obtained through oft repeated racial disparities within American Visual culture. \nSize Matters – Alex Paulus\nI’ve been thinking about scale and proportion a lot lately. The size of an object can make it seem important or unimportant. And we all measure things according to the size of ourselves. Things that are smaller than us can seem trivial\, while larger objects can feel overwhelming. Yet\, when considering the vastness of the universe\, our planet seems tiny and inconsequential.\nMy current series focuses on the juxtaposition of small figures within expansive landscapes\, alongside large-scale portraits depicting figures of profound personal meaning from my childhood. The pieces involving small figures in massive spaces\, create a sense of insignificance. The large portraits give off a sense of immense importance. But this is all relative to the size of the viewer and how it makes them feel.\nI often think about how humans fit into this world and how small we actually are compared to the rest of the universe. I am very interested in the purpose of human existence\, but it seems like we do a lot of weird things for no reason. And I’d like to learn as much as I can with my time here on Earth. \nStill – Michelle Fair\nMy current work is more about the process of the painting than anything else. Of course\, there are themes and subjects I gravitate towards—figures and landscapes\, ideas of solitude and loneliness\, etc.—but there is something so explorative and meditative about painting that I’ve noticed becoming more and more the driving factor for me. I find when I try to come up with ideas that are motivated by the final product I get stuck. Lately I have decided to forego the control of the final product and just go where a piece takes me. In doing so\, I am looking at colors\, shapes\, and textures differently than I was before\, and I make decisions I probably wouldn’t have made if I had planned everything out. I think focusing on the process has allowed me to lose a little rigidity and explore more\, and that is what these pieces have been born from.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arts presents an Opening Reception for “Ana Log”\, “Size Matters\,” and "Still" in the Galleries at Crosstown Arts.
DESCRIPTION:The Galleries at Crosstown Arts\nFriday\, September 27\, 2024\nTime: 6-8 pm\nTickets: Free and open to the public \nANA • LOG: \nFOURTEEN PICS \n  \n  \nANA•LOG: Fourteen Pics is a cumulative project referencing elements from several continuing bodies of work by Lester Julian Merriweather including #JETBlack\, WHITE(S) ONLY\, Vanilla Extract\, #WGW\, COLOR(ED) THEORY and Merriweather’s most recent collage series\, #BetterGardensAndJungles. \n  \n  \nThe works presented draw upon several sources: They take direct visual inspiration from the compositions of the 1982-88 Basquiat-Warhol Collaborations. ANA•LOG’s methodology invokes the long-rumored Dr. Dre concept album The Planets in which the famed producer executed each individual track of the album in a completely different genre\, thus creating an intensely lush atmospheric soundscape that still would exist as parts of a whole. The gestural treatment of the layered and excavated surfaces pay homage to the experimental processes of the mid-60s Developer tool works by the late Jack Whitten as well as the innovative organic Tesserae paintings that Whitten continued creating until his death in 2018. \n  \n  \nLanguage is key to the works included in ANA•LOG. In breaking down its linguistic aspects\, Merriweather examined varied forms of the word Analog. The word is defined as “not computerized”; Analog is a counter-cultural delineation that separates itself from the “Digital”. The individually collaged-by-hand “units” in ANA•LOG function in a fashion similar to the amalgamation of pixels in the Digital space. One could recognize Analogous\, “a comparison of two otherwise unlike things based on resemblance of a particular aspect” within the approach of Merriweather’s collage practice. In terms of Memphis slang\, “Ana” is a shortened form of “Animosity”. “Log” in this instance serves as a “Recorded History”. ANA•LOG essentially serves as a “Record of Angers Remembered ” obtained through repeated racial disparities which are then immortalized within generalized/homogeneous American visual media. Merriweather examines the concept of agency over Black Visualization within American Popular Culture. \n  \nSize Matters \nI’ve been thinking about scale and proportion a lot lately.

Muneer says that in 1976 “my dad took me to see Dizzy Gillespie at the Village Gate and Dizzy blew the place apart. I had to get a trumpet and weeks later I did.” \nAfter graduating from high school\, he attended Shaw University in Raleigh\, North Carolina\, where he played with Paul Jeffrey and gigged at churches and cultural venues around town. He transferred to Howard University and graduated with a BBA in International Business. While in Washington\, DC\, he performed at the Lincoln Theater\, Bohemian Caverns\, Westminster Church\, Takoma Station\, Cafe Nema\, The Kennedy Center\, and Twins Jazz. \n\n\n\nMusicians:\n\n\nMuneer Nasser- Trumpet/ Flugelhorn\n\n\nKeenan Shotwell- Acoustic Piano\n\n\nCarl Caspersen- Upright Bass\n\n\nMike Assad- Drums\n\n\nCharles Pender II- Tenor Sax

SUMMARY:Brennen Leigh Trio
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Art presents the Brennen Leigh Trio in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nSunday\, September 29\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $20 in advance | $25 at the door \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \n\n\n\n\n\nBrennen Leigh is an American songwriter\, guitar player\, mandolin player\, and singer whose to-the-point storytelling style has elevated her to cult icon status in Europe\, Scandinavia\, across the United States\, South America\, and the United Kingdom.\n\n\n\nHer songs have been recorded by Lee Ann Womack\, Rodney Crowell\, Sunny Sweeney\, Charley Crockett\, and many others. As renowned for her musicianship as for her writing\, it’s easy to see how Leigh caught the ear of greats like Guy Clark\, who colorfully endorsed her flatpicking: “Brennen Leigh plays guitar like a motherfucker\,” and David Olney\, who described her writing as “tender\, violent\, sentimental\, foolish and wise\, she is always Brennen. Confident and at ease with herself\, without being a jerk about it.”
