SUMMARY:Blair Crimmins & The Hookers
DESCRIPTION:Hendersonville Theatre welcomes Blair Crimmins & The Hooker as September’s intimate HT’s Hometown Sound Music Series concert! Blair Crimmins & The Hookers bring the magic of 1920s ragtime and Dixieland jazz to life with a touch of rock and roll.  \nStarting his music career in Atlanta\, Georgia\, Crimmins set out with a mission: to introduce the sounds of classic American jazz to new audiences. Playing small rock clubs around the Southeast\, he developed a style that is deeply rooted in the past yet undeniably contemporary. Today\, the band’s electrifying performances have captivated audiences across the U.S. and abroad\, including tours in Italy and festival stages alongside renowned acts like Preservation Hall Jazz Band and Old Crow Medicine Show. \nA multi-instrumentalist on guitar\, banjo\, and piano\, Crimmins writes songs and intricate arrangements for a classic New Orleans horn section\, featuring trumpet\, clarinet\, and trombone. His debut release\, The Musical Stylings Of\, became a college radio sensation on WRAS Atlanta\, making him the station’s most requested artist. In 2012\, Crimmins showcased his versatility by composing the full score for the independent short film Old Man Cabbage. His lyrical ingenuity earned him the title of Best Songwriter in Creative Loafing’s Best of ATL issue in 2013. \nCrimmins’ discography reflects his wide-ranging talent and relentless creativity. His album Sing-A-Longs! earned him a nomination for Best Jazz Artist at The Georgia Music Awards. Subsequent releases include the critically acclaimed You Gotta Sell Something (2017)\, a children’s album titled All Aboard (2019)\, and the innovative Okay Boom! (2021)\, which features swinging covers of favorites ranging from Louis Armstrong to David Bowie. Each project showcases his ability to blend vintage influences with modern flair\, keeping the spirit of ragtime alive for audiences of all ages. \nWhether performing at festivals\, intimate venues\, or international stages\, Blair Crimmins & The Hookers deliver unforgettable\, high-energy shows that honor the legacy of ragtime and jazz while adding their own daring\, youthful edge. With a mix of original songs\, masterful arrangements\, and a stage presence that oozes charisma\, Crimmins is not only reviving the genre—he’s redefining it. \nSwing into the world of Blair Crimmins & The Hookers and experience a revival of ragtime like never before.

SUMMARY:PERSPECTIVES Artist Talk: Stereolab (with Tim Gane\, Laetitia Sadier\, and Joe Watson)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a PERSPECTIVES Artist Talk with Tim Gane\, Laetitia Sadier\, and Joe Watson of Stereolab ahead of their evening show at The Orange Peel. The band will discuss their performance practice and how the legacy of Black Mountain College – including the work of John Cage\, Merce Cunningham\, and David Tudor – informs their experimental approach. This conversation will highlight connections to the upcoming exhibition Points in Space: Performance at Black Mountain College and how BMC’s radical\, interdisciplinary spirit continues to influence Stereolab’s artistic vision. \nAbout Stereolab: \nWith their hypnotic rhythms and mesmerizing vocals\, Stereolab became one of indie’s most distinctive and influential bands when they emerged in the early ’90s. Led by Tim Gane and Laetitia Sadier\, the group celebrated strands of pop music — bossa nova\, lounge-pop\, movie soundtracks — that were traditionally banished from rock’s lineage. \nOn early singles and albums such as 1993’s Transient Random-Noise Bursts with Announcements\, Stereolab combined ’60s pop melodies with an art rock aesthetic borrowed from Krautrock bands like Faust and Neu!; by the time of 1996’s Emperor Tomato Ketchup\, their sound incorporated jazz\, hip-hop\, and dance music. \nTheir work with John McEntire and Jim O’Rourke on 1997’s Dots and Loops and 2001’s Sound-Dust reflected an increasingly intricate\, experimental approach\, but following the 2002 death of member Mary Hansen\, they eventually returned to a poppier style on albums like 2008’s Chemical Chords. Stereolab’s unmistakable sound had a lasting impact: Contemporaries like Pavement and Blur aped their style in the ’90s\, while hip-hop artists such as J Dilla and Tyler the Creator sampled the band’s music or collaborated with its members in the 2000s and 2010s. Late in that decade and into the 2020s\, Stereolab’s revival as a touring band and a steady stream of reissues underscored their reputation as innovators. \nTim Gane (born July 12\, 1964; guitar\, keyboards) was the leader of McCarthy\, a London-based band from the late ’80s that functioned as a prototype for Stereolab’s sound. Gane met Laetitia Sadier (born May 6\, 1968; vocals\, keyboards)\, a French-born vocalist\, at one of McCarthy‘s concerts. The pair began a romantic relationship that became a musical collaboration after McCarthy disbanded in 1990; Sadier sang on the final McCarthy album. The duo began recording as Stereolab\, borrowing the name from Vanguard Records‘ hi-fi effects division in the ’50s. Gane and Sadier also formed the label Duophonic Records with manager Martin Pike to release their singles. Stereolab’s first year of existence was prolific: The debut EP Super 45 arrived in May 1991\, followed quickly by the Super-Electric EP that September and the Stunning Debut Album EP that November. At that point\, the group were working with Th’ Faith Healers drummer Joe Dilworth and former Chills bassist Martin Kean; Gina Morris occasionally provided backup vocals. \nToo Pure released the band’s first full-length\, Peng!\, in May 1992\, and the EP compilation Switched On in October. As with all of the group’s releases from this era\, both albums featured the visual trademark of a maniacally grinning cartoon taken from a ’70s Swiss political comic (which the band named “Cliff”). That year\, Stereolab also issued the Lo-Fi EP and added keyboardist/vocalist Mary Hansen and drummer Andy Ramsay to the fold.\nReleased in early 1993\, Stereolab’s The Groop Played “Space Age Bachelor Pad Music” EP featured the core group of Gane\, Sadier\, Hansen\, and Ramsay\, along with ex-Microdisney guitarist Sean O’Hagan and bassist Duncan Brown. One of the first ’90s alternative records to explicitly draw from the “Space Age” lounge-pop music of the ’50s\, The Groop became an underground sensation\, paving the way toward Stereolab’s first American record contract with Elektra Records. Their next album\, and first American release\, was Transient Random-Noise Bursts with Announcements. Released in August 1993\, it became an underground and college hit throughout the U.S. and U.K. They followed it that October with Crumb Duck\, a split EP with Nurse with Wound. Early the following year\, the Jenny Ondioline EP became Stereolab’s first charting release when it entered the U.K. Singles chart at number 75. \nStereolab soon became a hip name to drop for many musicians\, including Sonic Youth\, Pavement\, and Blur\, who had Laetitia Sadier provide guest vocals on their 1994 hit single “To the End.” Where Transient was dominated by a lo-fi experimentalism\, the group’s sound became lusher and more layered with Mars Audiac Quintet\, which was released in August 1994. O’Hagan moved from a full member to a part-time guest during the recording of the album — he was busy forming his own band\, the High Llamas — and the group added keyboardist Katherine Gifford. By the time of Mars Audiac Quintet’s release\, Stereolab’s style was prominent throughout the underground\, and the band began to change their approach. Created for an interactive art exhibit by Charles Long\, the limited-edition 1995 EP Music for the Amorphous Body Center boasted detailed\, intricate string and vocal arrangements that were more sophisticated than the group’s previous releases. That July\, the band issued their second rarities compilation\, Refried Ectoplasm\, which was released on Drag City in the U.S.\nBefore Stereolab recorded a new album\, Gifford was replaced by Morgane Lhote. Featuring contributions from Tortoise‘s John McEntire\, 1996’s Emperor Tomato Ketchup was an even bigger departure from the band’s early drone rock\, demonstrating a heavy hip-hop\, jazz\, and dance influence. It was Stereolab’s greatest success to date\, earning positive reviews in both the U.S. and U.K. and becoming a significant college hit in the process. After the recording of Emperor Tomato Ketchup\, bassist Duncan Brown was replaced by Richard Harrison. That year\, the band worked with Herbie Mann on “One Note Samba/Surfboard\,” which appeared on the Red Hot Organization’s AIDS benefit album Red Hot + Rio. At the end of 1996\, Stereolab released the limited-edition\, horn-driven Fluorescences EP. For their next album\, Dots and Loops\, the band reunited with McEntire and recruited Mouse on Mars‘ Jan St. Werner; after its September 1997 release\, it peaked at number 111 on the Billboard 200 chart. Another Nurse with Wound collaboration\, Simple Headphone Mind\, appeared that year\, and singer/poet Brigitte Fontaine joined Stereolab on the 1998 single “Calimero\,” which featured the debut of Sadier‘s other project Monade on its B-side. Aluminum Tunes\, the group’s third rarities collection\, appeared in October 1998. \nAfter taking time off from touring following the birth of Gane and Sadier‘s first child\, Stereolab resurfaced in 1999 with the intricate Cobra and Phases Group Play Voltage in the Milky Night\, which featured production by McEntire and Jim O’Rourke. An EP\, The First of the Microbe Hunters\, quickly followed in 2000. Their seventh full-length\, 2001’s Sound-Dust\, reunited the band with O’Rourke and McEntire and took a more melodic approach. In 2002\, Sadier and Gane ended their relationship\, but Stereolab continued. The collection ABC Music: The Radio 1 Sessions arrived that October\, just a few months before Hansen died at the age of 36 when the bicycle she was riding was hit by a truck in December 2002. Following Hansen’s death\, the group soldiered on\, releasing The Instant 0 in the Universe EP in October 2003 and the full-length Margerine Eclipse — a tribute to Hansen — in January 2004. After Elektra Records folded later in 2004\, Stereolab returned to Too Pure\, which released a series of six limited-edition singles collected on 2006’s Fab Four Suture. The group re-teamed with producer/arranger Sean O’Hagan for 2008’s Chemical Chords\, a collection of short\, poppy songs released by 4AD. \nFollowing their Australian tour in February 2009\, Stereolab went on an indefinite hiatus. Not Music\, a collection of material recorded during the Chemical Chords sessions\, arrived in 2010. Subsequently\, Gane formed the kosmische-inspired trio Cavern of Anti-Matter\, which also featured former Stereolab drummer Joe Dilworth. Sadier pursued several projects\, including solo albums and the groups Little Tornados and the Laetitia Sadier Source Ensemble. In 2019\, Stereolab ended their hiatus to play a series of concerts and festivals that coincided with deluxe reissues of their albums\, beginning with Transient Random-Noise Bursts with Announcements and Mars Audiac Quintet that May. Emperor Tomato Ketchup\, Dots and Loops\, and Cobra and Phases Group Play Voltage in the Milky Night followed that September\, and Sound-Dust and Margerine Eclipse appeared that November. Electrically Possessed: Switched On\, Vol. 4 arrived in February 2021 and collected singles\, B-sides\, and rarities from 1999 to 2008\, including the entirety of The First of the Microbe Hunters. \nIn 2022\, Gane\, Sadier\, and Stereolab manager Martin Pike revived Duophonic Super 45s with the first full-lengths released by the label in over 20 years: Ghost Power\, the self-titled album from the duo of Gane and Dymaxion’s Jeremy Novak\, appeared that April\, as did Flickering i\, the debut album from Astrel K\, the solo project of Ulrika Spacek‘s Rhys Edwards. Sadier contributed vocals to the Japanese doom rock duo BlackLab‘s August 2022 album In a Bizarre Dream\, and that September saw the release of Pulse of the Early Brain: Switched On\, Vol. 5\, which gathered rarities and remastered tracks spanning the early ’90s to the Chemical Chords era and featured collaborations with Nurse with Wound and remixes by Autechre. Around the time of the collection’s release\, Stereolab embarked on a world tour. In March 2024\, the box set Switched On\, Vols. 1-5 gathered all of the band’s singles and rarities collections. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine & Heather Phares\, Rovi

DESCRIPTION:Within this space\, a dream will be induced taking you into a state of consciousness that can bring about immense healing in your conscious\, subconscious\, and unconscious mind. The cave will transform into a “Nidra Nest” with comfy reclining loungers\, blankets\, and bolsters to fully support you\, whether sitting or lying down\, for the entire experience. We will gather near the New moon to invite in rebirth\, a new beginning or opportunity\, a time for transformation\, a coming into a new. Begin a new ritual and join us monthly to slow down\, become present and set these intentions. During this session Kate will also be offering Reiki to those who desire. Reiki feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. It is a powerful attunement that treats the whole person including body\, emotions\, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace\, security and well being. Release stuck emotions\, rest\, and rejuvenate! Join Reiki Master Teacher and Yoga Nidra Facilitator\, Kate Wargo of Woven Light LLC in a soothing Yoga Nidra (Yogic Sleep) practice guiding you into the “in between”; that space between being awake and being asleep.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Archives in Practice
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening of our new exhibition\, “Archives in Practice.” \nArchives can be a link to the past while reflecting the present. They often take the form of objects\, memories\, or contemplations from histories. \nArchives in Practice features eight artists whose work is influenced by archival research. Drawing from personal\, familial\, and public collections\, cultural heritage\, and various reference materials\, their work communicates the diversity of what an archive can be and how artists can activate them to retell histories that might otherwise be lost\, hidden\, or erased. Collectively\, these artists illustrate the interconnectedness of the past\, the individual\, and the present—revealing the importance of connecting to one’s diaspora and community\, building representation of histories\, and conducting object research. \nThis exhibition also demonstrates the expansive quality of craft research. The artists’ work embodies themes of identity within historical contexts and through personal explorations. It engages with social issues and prompts important questions about the significance and impact of objects\, photographs\, and the intangible on everyday material practices. \nThe featured artists are Jacqueline Bishop\, N.E. Brown\, Ruth Hallows\, Margaret Jacobs\, Hùng Lê\, Aaron McIntosh\, and Ruth Tamura & Helen Lee. \nSeven of these artists are alumni of the Center for Craft. Two of the artworks on display—Gisma̱xsa G̱a̱tgyedm Na Sigidmhanaa’na̱gm\, Our Matriarchs Endow Our Strength by Ruth Hallows\, and Sojourner Truth Ain’t I A Lady by Jacqueline Bishop—are the direct result of research funded by Center for Craft grants and fellowship programs. \nLearn more: https://www.centerforcraft.org/exhib…/archives-in-practice \nImage credit: Ruth Tamura and Helen Lee\, “GEN 二 \,” 2025\, glass\, sand\, 7 x 7 x 1 ft.

SUMMARY:LaMP - Lawton • Metzger • Paczkowski @ Third Room
DESCRIPTION:WHERE: Third Room\nWHEN: Wednesday\, September 17\, 2025\nDOORS: 7pm SHOW: 8pm\nGENRE: instrumental jam/rock‑fusion\nTICKETS: $20 ga \nPURCHASE: https://tixr.com/e/149147 \nLaMP:\nWEBSITE: www.ilikelamp.com\nHEAR SOME MUSIC: https://lampband.bandcamp.com\nSEE A VIDEO: https://youtu.be/xowS03Q1dak?si=WEpURQZ2RTeUjoPf \nOn a magical night at Nectar’s in Burlington\, Vermont in December of 2018\, three musical masters—Russ Lawton\, Scott Metzger and Ray Paczkowski—came together with alchemical synthesis\, and created a fresh\, so-tight-it’s-free sound\, permeated with technical prowess and a deep-pocket punch. The packed house fortunate enough to be in attendance that night witnessed the birth of something very special. The following spring\, the trio took the name LaMP by combining the first letters of each members’ surname\, and reconvened back in Vermont at Sugarhouse Soundworks for an intense recording session with sound engineer Roger Stauss laying down tracks that would become their eponymous debut EP. \nMetzger\, described by The Village Voice as “…an ace guitarist of a thousand styles\,” and a full-time member of the beloved Joe Russo’s Almost Dead\, tested the decades-strong synergy between Lawton and Paczkowski forged from their time playing with Trey Anastasio Band and their duo project Soule Monde. It resulted in seven tracks crackling with energy and soul. The melodic and harmonic interplay between Paczkowski’s swirling organ and clavinet dancing with Metzger’s acrobatic melodies on telecaster\, driven by Lawton’s unflappable backbeat\, produced a record that will stand the test of time. Ever since—as the three members busy schedules have allowed—LaMP has prioritized bringing the music to the people with shows across the East Coast. As word has spread and the crowds have grown with each subsequent tour\, it’s become clear that LaMP will be a musical force to be reckoned with for the foreseeable future.

SUMMARY:Hemlock Hike at Gorges State Park
DESCRIPTION:Join the Hemlock Restoration Initiative for an educational hike at 10 a.m. on Sunday\, September 14th at one of North Carolina’s hidden gems: Gorges State Park. This rugged park features waterfalls\, sheer rock walls\, many miles of trails\, and a diverse collection of flora and fauna. \nOur 2.8 mile (total) out and back hike will explore only a small section of the park\, but includes a dense patch of hemlocks crowded around a tranquil stream before climbing to a ridge that exhibits an entirely different environment than the trail’s streamside beginnings. There are a few steep sections\, but this hike is only of moderate difficulty as it follows old logging roads and has less than 500 feet of total elevation gain. \nWe will start out by exploring the streamside area and its many hemlocks\, diving into details on hemlocks and their conservation. We will then head up the Auger Hole and Heath Pine Ridge trails. \nGorges State Park is located about 5 miles southwest of Rosman\, NC and is near the NC-SC border. \nThe back-up weather date for this hike will be on September 21st at 10:00am. \nFor any questions\, contact Olivia Hall at education@savehemlocksnc.org or 828-252-4783. While the hike is free to attend\, your RSVP is required\, and space is limited. Please sign up by Wednesday\, September 10th by filling out the form linked on the event webpage. More details about meeting location and what to bring will be provided upon registration.
