As co-founder and bassist of X\, John Doe helped define the sound of late-’70s Los Angeles punk\, releasing six albums and carrying the band’s fiercely poetic\, roots-infused spirit forward for nearly five decades\, while also building a prolific solo career and appearing in more than 50 films and television projects. David Lowery\, the acclaimed singer-songwriter behind Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven\, has spent over 40 years shaping the indie-rock and alt-country landscape with iconic songs and a string of gold and platinum records\, alongside his work as a producer\, educator\, and outspoken advocate for artists’ rights. \n\nAbout John Doe: \nJohn Doe was born in 1977 when he arrived in Los Angeles. His previous life in Tennessee\, Wisconsin & Baltimore was a great & fertile time but new music and social changes led him to events that created a life in art. He graduated from Antioch College in Baltimore in 1975\, worked as a roofer\, aluminum siding mechanic\, and ran a poetry reading series. Ms. Meyers was his landlord in the rural black community of Simpsonville \, MD. \nJohn met Exene Cervenka at the Venice poetry workshop Nov 1976 and he started working with Billy Zoom around the same time. When DJ Bonebrake joined X in mid-1977 the line up was complete. They released six studio records\, five or six singles and one live record from 1978-1993. Five of X’s records have been re-issued along with two compilations. The Unheard Music documents their lives and progress as a band from 1980-83. In 2009 the film was included in the Sundance UCLA Archive of greatest films of all time. They appeared several times on American Bandstand\, Solid Gold and David Letterman. As one of the last original punk rock bands standing\, they continue to tour. The day that X played a free noontime concert in Fullerton\, CA\, they caused Orange County’s greatest high school truancy rate to date. \nIn 1988 John started a family and lived in the Tehachapi Mountains\, near the “Grapevine” of Highway 5\, which separates southern and central California. He has recorded 8 solo records w/ numerous renowned singers and players\, more recently including Patty Griffin\, Dan Auerbach\, Aimee Mann\, Don Was\, Kathleen Edwards and Greg Liesz. He has appeared in over 50 films and television productions\, with some of his most notable roles in Road House\, Georgia\, Roadside Prophets\, Great Balls of Fire\, Pure Country and Roswell. He continues to act these days but more sporadically as his touring schedule has become more demanding. \nOther musical side projects include work with the Knitters\, Jill Sobule and The Sadies. He continues to write poetry and has even taught workshops from time to time. He currently lives north of San Francisco\, California. \nAbout David Lowery: \nDavid Lowery is best known as the singer-songwriter and frontman for the two acclaimed bands Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven over the last four decades.  He’s  been revered in leading the charge of the indie-rock movement with the formation of CVB in the early ’80s\, spawning such absurdist\, left-field pop-rock gems as “Take The Skinheads Bowling\,” “The Day That Lassie Went To The Moon” and “(I Was Born In A) Laundromat\,” among countless others over the course of their nine studio albums together. \nAfter the initial break-up of CVB in 1990 (or as one New York media outlet phrased it “Camper Van Beethoven didn’t explode like Fleetwood Mac when they broke up\, they dissolved like a urinal cake”)\, Lowery hooked up with guitarist and friend Johnny Hickman and formed Cracker – a band that successfully melded rock with country – and proved to be one of the small handful of acts in the early ’90s to help spearhead the then burgeoning alt-county scene (grunge rock be damned). Cracker quickly blew up\, scoring three Top 10 alternative/rock radio hits\, as well as garnering two platinum and two gold albums. They’ve gone onto release nine studio albums\, along with several live and compilation LPs. \nIn addition\, Lowery has also produced a number of albums for acclaimed acts such as The Counting Crows and Sparklehorse. He also founded Sound of Music Studios in Richmond\, VA with John Morand.  This long running endeavor has produced tracks from artists as wide ranging as D’Angelo and Gwar. \nIn 2011 Lowery began teaching in the Music Business Certificate program at Terry College\, University of Georgia in Athens\, GA.  In 2018 he received his doctorate from the Institute for Higher Education at UGA\, and a year later he was appointed Senior Lecturer. \nIn 2012 Lowery started writing for www.thetrichordist.com.  This blog examines Artists’ Rights in the digital age.  He has become an outspoken critic of Silicon Valley and its aggressive attacks on artists and other content creators.  Three of Lowery’s pieces went viral\, “Letter to Emily White Intern at NPR All Songs Considered\,” “Meet the New Boss\, Worse than the Old Boss?\,” as well as “My Song Got Played on Pandora 1 Million Times and All I Got Was $16.89\, Less Than What I Make From a Single T-Shirt Sale!”  He has also testified to U.S. Congress twice on behalf of artists\, and penned an op-ed for Politico concerning copyright reform that was entered into the congressional record by North Carolina Representative Mel Watt. In 2014 Lowery was named a “Global IP Champion” by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.  In 2015 he launched a pair of class actions alleging major streaming services had failed to properly license and account to independent songwriters.  In 2017 Spotify settled for $112 million.  Five years later he was awarded the American Eagle Award by The National Music Council putting him in the same company as Kris Kristofferson\, Clive Davis and Quincy Jones\, among others. \nAfter all these years both Cracker and CVB are still active\, as the former will be hitting the road in support of their recently released album Alternative History: A Cracker Retrospective (a 3-LP vinyl set featuring a collection of re-recordings\, demos\, outtakes\, collaborations\, and live tracks that presents an alternate history of the band). And Camper Van Beethoven will be performing two very special 40th Anniversary shows at The Fillmore in San Francisco on April 26th and 27th\, 2025\, four decades after releasing their genre-bending debut LP Telephone Free Landslide Victory. \nDavid will also be releasing his new 28-track solo album Fathers\, Sons and Brothers early this summer. This is his musical autobiography\, celebrating his youth\, family\, friends and the highs and lows of his lengthy 40-year career in the music business. This 3-LP vinyl and 2-CD set combines three of David’s previously online-only released autobiographical solo albums\, In The Shadow of the Bull\, Leaving Key Member Clause\, and Vending Machine\, and also includes four new previously unreleased songs\, as well as four newly re-recorded tracks.

After several years of wowing audiences as the fiddler for Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway\, the 2x IBMA Fiddle Player of the Year is striking out on her own – fronting a band for the first time and bringing her voice to the forefront. Known for her fiery fiddle playing and pure\, rootsy singing\, Bronwyn Keith-Hynes’ debut vocal album ‘I Built A World’ earned her a Grammy nomination this past February\, and American Songwriter calls her “a world-class fiddler with a golden voice.”\nNow\, as her own entry in bluegrass history expands from celebrated instrumentalist to bandleader and front woman\, Bronwyn isn’t just crafting a career in the image of genre greats like Sam Bush and Jerry Douglas; she’s bringing them along for the ride. Both Bush and Douglas are featured as players on I Built a World\, and they’re not the only of Bronwyn’s musically-inclined pals and heroes to make an appearance on this star studded album. \nKeith-Hynes’ music blends high octane bluegrass sensibilities with the soul of country and American Roots music. Backed by a powerhouse group of Nashville musicians hand picked from her tight-knit community\, Keith-Hynes represents the next generation of top tier bluegrass musicians\, who will be appreciated for generations to come. With a career that has already spanned collaborations with some of the biggest names in acoustic music\, Bronwyn is now forging her own path—bringing her undeniable talent to audiences in a whole new way.

Jackson Arts Center! Tickets here. \nStriking contrast and kinetic beauty define Pure Dance\, a bold celebration of what ballet can be today – athletic\, expressive\, and deeply human. Designed for both first-time dancegoers and seasoned audiences\, the program offers a dynamic journey through contemporary ballet that highlights the moving body as both instrument and storyteller. \nFrom the effervescent brilliance of George Balanchine’s Allegro Brillante\, to the meditative intimacy of Christopher Wheeldon’s Liturgy\, to the raw contemporary pulse of Yury Yanowsky’s Fading Creatures\, Pure Dance reveals ballet as an art form that is alive\, relevant\, and accessible. Set to gorgeous music and performed by Ballet RI’s professional artists\, this unforgettable experience is just a short drive away\, and an open invitation to come along for the ride. \nFollowing each performance\, audiences are invited to stay for a Meet the Ballerina experience\, offering a rare opportunity to connect directly with the artists\, ask questions\, and gain insight into the creative process behind the performance. These post-show conversations are designed to break down barriers\, welcome curiosity\, and deepen the audience’s connection to the art form. \nBallet Rhode Island continues to evolve through innovation\, connection\, and a commitment to artistic excellence and community engagement. This inspiring program is made possible through the generous sponsorship of Bank Five\, a partner dedicated to uplifting local communities and fostering long-term growth across Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Through this partnership\, discounted tickets are available for Bristol Community College students\, ensuring continued accessibility to the arts. \nNow in the midst of its bold 48th season\, Ballet Rhode Island performs across six theaters in Rhode Island and Massachusetts\, offering 54 opportunities to experience the power of dance. Season 48 reflects Ballet RI’s continued growth as a leading voice in the performing arts throughout New England. \nDiscover the movement that starts at home and soars across the region. Step away from the screen\, into the theater\, and experience ballet as it is today\, vibrant\, welcoming\, and alive\, with Pure Dance. \n“Through bold partnerships\, deep community connection\, and fearless artistic innovation\, we’re building a new future for ballet.” \n— Kathleen Breen Combes\, Artistic Executive Director\, Ballet Rhode Island \nFor more information and to purchase tickets to Pure Dance\, visit \nwww.balletri.org/season-48-performances/ URL:https://www.vivafallriver.com/event/pure-dance/ LOCATION:Margaret L.
