SUMMARY:GALLERY WALK – NAN DAVIS\, ORIGINAL OIL ARTIST
DESCRIPTION:(FREE) The Gallery Walk in June will feature original oil artist Nan Davis. \nNan’s desire is to create beautiful paintings. With a degree in Art\, but a need for a steady income\, she worked in the corporate world for 25 years\, only painting on nights and weekends as time allowed. But for the past six years\, she has been able to paint full time\, gloriously spreading paint across blank canvases in awe of turning a feeling into a vision on a flat surface. Every day\, she returns to the canvas to play in color and light. She sees the light coming through foliage\, or the mountain vistas and she is called to create. Nan searches for a way to interpret something beautiful in a way that allows others to respond from their own experiences.

SUMMARY:An Evening With Patterson Hood (of Drive-By Truckers)
DESCRIPTION:PATTERSON HOOD Drive-By Truckers co-founder Patterson Hood’s fourth solo album and first in over 12 years\, Exploding Trees & Airplane Screams sees the veteran singer\, guitarist\, and songwriter exploring his youth and young manhood in a collection unlike anything in his ever-evolving catalogue. A baroque American song cycle spanning the time between early childhood and leaving his rural hometown in search of his musical dreams\, the album gathers songs that have amassed over the remarkably prolific songwriter’s career\, many of which provided him with distraction and creative sustenance during lockdown\, others which have resided among his notebooks for years. “This record has all these kinds of unintended themes\,” Hood says. “It’s all subconscious\, because I didn’t really set out with an agenda\, writing-wise. It really just kind of occurred to me when I was actually putting it all together\, just how much it seems to have a theme to it.” The dozen years since his last extracurricular outing\, 2012’s Heat Lightning Rumbles in the Distance\, had seen Hood accumulate a cache of material which did not quite fit into the Drive-By Truckers canon\, songs which he set aside for “if and when” he got around to another solo project. Kept off the road during the 2020 lockdown\, he found himself recording demos in his Portland\, OR attic\, without a clear plan but thinking “maybe this might be worth pursuing at some point.” Hood had moved to Portland with his family in 2013 and swiftly found a place among the Rose City’s thriving music scene\, including a friendship forged with producer/musician Chris Funk (The Decemberists). Having long discussed collaborating\, in 2023 the two artists’ typically stacked calendars finally allowed them the opportunity to team up and they set to work recording what Hood intended to be “a bigger departure” from Drive-By Truckers and his previous solo efforts than ever before. “The band has been in such a good place that I hadn’t really thought in terms of doing anything outside of the Truckers anytime soon\,” Hood says. “I decided if I ever was going to do another solo record\, I wanted it to be pretty different than the band\, as different as it can be.” Hood further took the occasion to explore sounds outside the boundaries and obligations of his day job\, deviating from Drive-By Truckers’ traditionally guitar-driven palette to craft richly textured arrangements marked by the inclusion of strings\, woodwinds\, and vintage analog synthesizers. With its powerful textural clarity and Hood’s literary strengths at the fore\, Exploding Trees & Airplane Screams emerges as a staggering investigation into how time can shed light on the recesses of memory\, revealing this exceptionally gifted songwriter’s resolute inclination to look back through the golden haze to grapple with the darkness and secret truths that perhaps weren’t understood or reckoned with at the time. As he has throughout his career – from Drive-By Truckers’ ceaseless investigation into American values and culture to his solo body of work’s autobiographical meditations – Exploding Trees and Airplane Screams sees Patterson Hood once again stripping away the facade of things to get to the core\, lifting up life’s rock to see what lies underneath.

SUMMARY:Shlomo Franklin w/ Julie Odell
DESCRIPTION:Shlomo Franklin is an American singer/songwriter born on a small cow farm in upstate New York. Raised off the cultural grid\, without music\, television\, or radio\, his songs are strongly influenced by his cult-like religious upbringing. Shlomo released his debut album in 2019 which was produced by Grammy Award winner C Lanzbom and released a double album follow up from his now Nashville\, TN home. His 3rd album\, Land of Hopes & Schemes\, is set to release in early summer 2026. Franklin has opened up for Jakob Dylan and The Wallflowers and shared festivals with The Nude Party and The Bones of JR Jones. His songs are just as comfortable in front of a crowd of two thousand as they are in a living room house concert. Shlomo sees himself as a bare bones troubadour and is stubbornly trendless.

SUMMARY:Tank and The Bangas: The Last Balloon Tour
DESCRIPTION:TANK AND THE BANGAS\nFor Tank and the Bangas\, music is a vessel for unbridled joy and transcendent connection—forces as integral to their essence as their wildly original sound. On their new album The Last Balloon\, the New Orleans-bred outfit channel those impulses into something celebratory yet profoundly human\, exploring themes of frustration\, resilience\, and self-realization with equal parts raw emotionality and playful exuberance. A shapeshifting collective helmed by lead singer Tarriona “Tank” Ball and multi-instrumentalist Norman Spence II\, the globally beloved group completed the LP after winning a GRAMMY for 2024’s spoken-word powerhouse The Heart\, The Mind\, The Soul\, moving from incendiary poetry to a euphoric collision of soul and hip-hop and forward-thinking R&B. As the final installment in a trilogy of albums that began with 2019’s Green Balloon (a critical triumph that earned them a GRAMMY nomination for Best New Artist)\, The Last Balloon ultimately solidifies Tank and the Bangas’ legacy as one of modern music’s most steadfast voices of sublime exhilaration. \nExecutive-produced by their frequent collaborator Austin Brown (Jamila Woods\, Masego)\, The Last Balloon offers up a suite of songs designed to thrive in Tank and the Bangas’ rapturous live set\, where unified movement becomes crucial to the show itself. “We’re known for a very interactive experience\, so I wanted to get the fans more involved and have even more fun with the crowd\,” says Ball. “There’s lots of gang vocals\, handclaps\, all these intentional moments to let everyone know\, ‘This is my part\, but your part’s coming up next—so get ready.’” A highly collaborative band whose past work has featured luminaries like Big Freedia\, Questlove\, and Jill Scott\, Tank and the Bangas created The Last Balloon with the help of Iman Omari (a multifaceted musician who’s worked with Kendrick Lamar and Mac Miller)\, pianist/producer Tane Runo (Brittany Howard\, JID)\, esteemed soul singers Ledisi and Jelly Joseph\, and many more. The result: a party-ready extravaganza that provides both ecstatic catharsis and communal elevation. \nARIEL J.\nAriel J. is an artist and former church musician born and raised in Mississippi\, whose music blends poetic storytelling\, soulful melodies\, and forward-thinking production to create a sound that teels both timeless and futuristic. She began singing and learning instruments as a child and started to perform at the age of five. At seventeen\, Ariel began writing songs and teaching herself to engineer her own music. \nRooted in R&B yet unbound by genre\, her work explores themes of resilience\, human connection\, and wonder in the face of rapid technological and cultural change. With every release\, Ariel J. seeks to spark reflection and empowerment\, inviting listeners into a world where creativity\, truth\, and hope lead the way. More than just music\, Ariel J’s mission is to remind people of their own power to imagine\, build\, and sustain a better future.
