SUMMARY:Dead Soldiers: Sad Songs and Story Time
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Dead Soldiers: Sad Songs and Story Time in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nFriday\, June 21\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $20 \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nDead Soldiers is an eight-piece band from Memphis\, Tennessee\, whose eclectic compositions feature a rock’n’roll core that lifts five-part vocal harmonies\, horns and strings to create a wall of sound. Building on the musical traditions of the Delta and the melting pot aesthetic that first made Memphis the home of rock and roll\, their music is at once irreverent and uniquely American. While firmly rooted in the modern urban South\, they draw heavily from the inspiration of a range of artists: Tom Waits to The Band\, John Prine and Bob Dylan to Frank Zappa and Randy Newman. Like Dead Soldiers\, they’re all artists who refuse to be easily classified. With humor\, cynicism and an underlying foundation of humanity\, Dead Soldiers’ songs root for the underdog while skewering the hypocrisy of the post-modern media landscape. \n\nOn the heels of their first new music release since 2017 — Dead Soldiers: Ride EP — the band also has a video premiere on June 6 at the Memphis Listening Lab. Recognized for their raucous and rowdy shows\, they seldom get to perform a fair bit of their catalog that is more conducive to a listening room environment. This show will feature many of Dead Soldiers’ least-performed songs and unique arrangements of existing songs in their live repertoire.

SUMMARY:Folk All Y’all: Jessye DeSilva
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts and Folk All Y’all present Jessye DeSilva in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nSaturday\, June 15\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $20 \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \n\n\n\n\n\nJessye DeSilva (she/they)’s new\, crowdfunded album\, Renovations\, chronicles an ongoing\, imperfect journey to self-love and -acceptance\, full of both moments of resignation and moments of triumph. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nDeSilva\, a non-binary\, trans person and the child of a preacher whose conservative religion left no room for their personhood\, examines identity and trauma and reckons with privilege and marginalization across 11 songs that draw from both their classical vocal training and work as a voice teacher for musical theater students at the Boston Conservatory at Berklee College of Music and their love of ’90s emo and pop-rock. The 2023 Nashville Scene artist to watch and 2022 Boston Music Awards Americana Artist of the Year nominee put queer and trans empowerment at the very heart of Renovations\, both in their encouraging\, vulnerable lyrics and in the musicians they enlisted to play on their songs.

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

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.

But if you ask any of his fellow musicians they’ll tell you he was writing songs and playing music long before he put pen to paper or strummed a chord. \n\n\nHis unique style landed him in the band Snowglobe. Over his many years with the Memphis-based institution\, Hulett regularly contributed melodies\, lyrics\, and arrangements to many of the tunes in their prolific cannon. You can even hear a few of his originals in their discography. \n\n\n\n\nDuring his long tenure with Snowglobe\, Hulett continued to hone his own voice and develop his own creative projects. He began playing guitar more\, and writing his own lyrics. This dedication and passion led to his collaboration with Leah Keys in the band Me & Leah. They released an eponymous and beautiful CD in 2016 featuring nine original folk tunes. Then in 2019\, Me & Leah added Jonathan Schallert to the mix to record and partially release a digital copy of their 7 inch Most of Your Life. Both albums were engineered by accomplished mainstays Toby Vest and Pete Mathews of High/Low and Andrew McCalla\, respectively. \n\n\n\nRecently\, Hulett had a song placed in Hulu’s Single Drunk Female and also provided the score for Empty to Enough\, a documentary about Room in the Inn – Memphis.

His lyrical insight is matched by a smooth baritone voice\, virtuosic guitar chops\, and creative open tunings\, giving him a range and tenderness rare in folk music.

We settled in North Mississippi and evolved into three groups: the preachers\, the drunks\, and the outlaws; and then kind of a mid-range group. I came from the mid-range group.” \n\n\n\n\nCyrena Wages fell in love with music on the country backroads between Millington and Shelby Forest\, two small towns just north of Memphis. Her upcoming debut album\, Vanity Project\, is both an exercise in rebellion against years of conditioning\, as well as a way of processing her own struggles\, healing\, and growth. As much as Memphis shaped her positively\, there were aspects of growing up as a woman in the South that didn’t align with who she wanted to become. Cyrena tapped producer Matt Ross-Spang (Charley Crockett\, St. Paul and the Broken Bones\, Margo Price) to helm Vanity Project at Southern Grooves Studio in Memphis. \n\n\n\n\n“It had been a really long time coming. I was getting ready to make this record\,” says Cyrena\, “and I heard about a music biz guy saying—before ever hearing my songs—‘Yeah\, but she’s kind of a vanity project\, right?’” \nAnd just like that\, the album had roots and the title track was born. “I just feel ready\, when I haven’t felt ready before. Everybody comes to terms with themselves on a different timeline. It took me a second\, but now it’s my time.” Find Cyrena’s first single “Carried Away” and second single “Robin Hood” on all platforms now. \n\n\n\n\nLilly Winwood is a Nashville-based singer-songwriter with a captivating sound that seamlessly fuses elements of folk\, R&B and Americana. Born into a musical family\, she inherited a love for singing and honed her craft with a voice that exudes both power and vulnerability. Drawing inspiration from personal experiences and introspection\, Lilly’s heartfelt lyrics and soulful vocals create an authentic and resonant connection with her audience. As she continues to evolve as an artist\, Lilly Winwood’s passion and undeniable talent solidify her place as a rising star in the music world.

SUMMARY:Those Pretty Wrongs
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Those Pretty Wrongs in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nFriday\, April 5\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $25 (plus fees) \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nThose Pretty Wrongs enter their tenth year as a band having just toured the U.S.\, UK\, and Australia in support of their best-reviewed album yet\, Holiday Camp\, which Mojo called “irresistible” for its “celestial harmonies and dealing with wrangled emotions” while Uncut hailed the album for its “dreamily autumnal mastery of the power pop form” — but\, how did they get here? \nJody Stephens and Luther Russell have a musical partnership borne of a deep and lasting friendship\, the roots of which stretch back to 1992 when they were first introduced. As the story goes\, nary a note of music was made between them until 2013 when they were united for the documentary Nothing Can Hurt Me about Jody’s alma mater\, the legendary Memphis group Big Star. They noticed their voices harmonised really well and set about writing songs and recording them forthwith. \nAfter releasing their self-titled debut Those Pretty Wrongs in 2016 to a healthy dose of acclaim\, Jody and Luther hit the road\, managing to play for audiences all around the globe. And in the course of these runs\, they began to forge the sound for their second offering\, 2019’s Zed For Zulu\, an earthy meditation on human interaction and communication. The music as always was a symphony of chords and melodies\, yet played in an understated fashion\, without too much fuss. Those Pretty Wrongs don’t have time to fuss\, as Luther dwells in Los Angeles and Jody still resides in Memphis. And they like it that way. “The first record was sort of a little miracle that could\, and I truly never expected to even make a second. But here we are with our third LP out\, Holiday Camp…”\, says Luther with more than a few notes of wonder. \nJody Stephens’ contribution to the pop canon goes well beyond his beginnings in Big Star\, helping to refine alt-country with Golden Smog\, and shaping the Ardent Studios legacy well into the current era. \nLuther maintains his long-storied career as a solo artist\, producer and songwriter\, having recently been inducted into the Oregon Music Hall Of Fame and composed for the Grammy-winning album Blood Harmony by Larkin Poe. After all these years\, the working approach to the way Jody and Luther make music together is aptly summed up: Those Pretty Wrongs have it when it “seems right”. \nArtwork always comes from Luther’s inks and pencils\, and the words mainly flow from Jody’s pen and paper. Those Pretty Wrongs will hit the UK this September to bring a decade of their music to everyone they can. “Coming out on the other side of making these records and feeling good about them is the grand reward\,” contemplates Jody. “It’s a shared experience of those that help along the way.”

Her late father\, Webster Williamson\, an avid amateur singer\, introduced his children to both sacred music and the secular styles of greats like Louis Armstrong\, Nat King Cole\, and Lena Horne. With the encouragement of her mother\, Lillie Williamson\, Patrice followed in the footsteps of her sister\, Denise\, taking up the violin and making her performance debut at age four. From then on\, she was hooked on music and performing. \nShe still carries that dream with her today\, and Patrice’s sensitive ballad work and fluent scat style have garnered invitations to perform at The Regattabar in Cambridge\, MA\, the famed Blue Note Jazz club in New York City\, and with many well-known jazz artists such as Danilo Perez\, Joe Lovano\, Sean Jones\, and Terri Lyne Carrington. Back in her hometown of Memphis\, she has performed at Lafayette’s Music Room and at Alfred’s on Beale Street\, one of the most iconic streets in America. \nHer independent recordings\, My Shining Hour\, Free to Dream and Comes Love\, an album celebrating the collaboration between Fitzgerald and legendary guitarist Joe Pass\, have received high praise from jazz critics around the country. \nJazz Times magazine states that “Patrice Williamson isn’t a singer\, she’s a one-woman jazz sampler. — She is a woman of many voices\, each distinctly intriguing\, all distinctly her own.”

SUMMARY:Art Edmaiston with Ra Kalam Bob Moses
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Art Edmaiston with Ra Kalam Bob Moses in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nFriday\, March 22\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $15 in advance | $20 at the door \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nMemphis saxophonist Art Edmaiston wants to share his version of “Ecstatic Energy Music” with the world. Thirty-plus years of experience touring and performing on stages and in  recording studios with a wide array of artists (Gregg Allman\, Bobby “Blue” Bland\, the Doobie  Brothers\, JJ Grey & Mofro\, Stevie Wonder\, Little Feat\, Dee Dee Bridgewater and Justin Timberlake) earned Edmaiston the ability to enhance music in colorful and exciting ways that  make him a crucial element in every setting. Art’s voluptuous sound on the tenor saxophone  was sculpted from years spent playing R&B and blues in Memphis\, but has origins in the small country town of Troy\, Tennessee\, where he grew up playing alone in wide open cow pastures and soybean fields. Now at the age of 51\, Edmaiston feels ready to make music that looks forward while being fully present in the moment. \nAfter a year of intense mentorship with legendary percussionist/composer/visual artist Ra  Kalam Bob Moses\, Edmaiston’s improvisations have a fresh energy that feature melodic lines alternating between husky subtones and brilliant multiphonic flourishes. Art has developed a unique and creative approach to the soprano saxophone that makes use of smeared notes\, pitch bends and tonal manipulations offering listeners an aural picture of abstract liberated instrumental expression unlike anything heard in mainstream music performances. \nThe upcoming concert at The Green Room will showcase Edmaiston on saxophones along with master rhythmatist Ra Kalam on drums/percussion/gongs in various instrumental configurations with an eclectic mix of talented guests.
