Meet Oscar: charmingly rumpled\, habitually late\, and blissfully allergic to coasters. When Felix moves in with his old pal Oscar after a marital meltdown\, neatness meets nonsense\, and the sparks fly. \nAshtrays overflow\, tempers flare\, and laughter fills the living room in Neil Simon’s effervescent comedy of friendship\, forgiveness\, and the fine art of driving each other crazy. \nThe Odd Couple is a classic cocktail of chaos and charm. Proof that opposites attract… so long as they don’t share a kitchen. \nEvent Times: 2:00 PM & 7:30 PM URL:https://thelaurelofasheville.com/event/the-odd-couple-flat-rock-playhouse-8-28-9-19/ LOCATION:Flat Rock Playhouse\, 2661 Greenville Highway\, Flat Rock\, NC\, 28731\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://thelaurelofasheville.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/theoddcouple.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260901T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260930T160000 DTSTAMP:20260825T171242 CREATED:20260810T145311Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260810T192558Z UID:96175-1788260400-1790784000@thelaurelofasheville.com SUMMARY:Drop-In Jewelry Making!

Each session begins with a guided morning exercise exploring essential artistic principles and techniques that bring depth\, energy\, and confidence to your work. Bring your own reference materials to create a personalized studio experience. Pastels\, paper\, and sketching and underpainting supplies are provided\, with premium sanded paper available for purchase. You’re also welcome to bring your own pastels and discover which colors will best complement and expand your palette. \nClass size limited to 6 \nARTIST BIO: \nAnne Strutz\, PSA\, IAPS-MC\, is an artist in motion\, pushing boundaries by infusing movement and energy into her paintings. For Anne painting begins with what you cannot see. She poses questions to herself before starting a painting. What is drawing me to this subject? What is the story I want to tell? What am I trying to express in each painting? No single mark is precious. No fear is allowed to enter the process behind the easel. All elements of the composition must work in unity. This process is critical for infusing energy into my work and allows me to respond directly to the piece as it evolves. \nAnne’s journey as an artist has been a fulfilling adventure\, leading her from fashion and textile designer in NYC\, to teaching and developing art curricula for children in Philadelphia and Chicago. In 2013 Anne turned her focus to fine art. After viewing a pastel exhibition at the Noyse Museum of Art in Hammonton N.J. Anne began her journey with the pastel medium. The tangible aspects of the medium\, with the ability to draw\, paint\, layer\, and combine with other mediums has led her on an energetic journey pushing the qualities of pastel in her work. Anne’s work has been featured in the Pastel Journal multiple times\, Pratique Des Arts and Strokes of Genius and the 2022 and 2024 IAPS Souvenir Book. She has also written multiple articles for the Pastel Journal and Artist Magazine. \nAnne is the past president and workshop chair of the Piedmont Pastel Society. In 2019 she participated in the Dueling Demonstration event at the International Association of Pastel Societies convention which occurs every two years. In 2022 and 2024 Anne was invited back to be one of the faculty artists to demonstrate her techniques at the convention. Anne holds a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design and currently lives in Pickens\, South Carolina.

True to its title\, Pathways finds Chris Smith [lead vocals\, guitar\, bass\, keys]\, Jamie Turner [drums\, percussion]\, James Porter [guitar\, keys\, bass\, vocals]\, and Ian Winkler [bass\, keys\, guitar] at multiple forks in the road and deciding to take all of them\, submerging their sound in new rippling textures while still retaining the warm\, textured glow that their music’s contained since their debut EP Visions in 2017. \nThematically\, Pathways approaches what Winkler refers to as “four men approaching their 30s and figuring out their paths and lives.” Big topics abound\, from relationships and the aftermath of loss to the strange and uneasy feeling that accompanies navigating the modern world at large. “Our tone is usually pretty optimistic and hopeful\, but this time we let some darkness in\,” Porter says. “There are so many things we experience individually\, but when we get in the studio\, it’s clear that we’re on a journey together.” \nWhether you’ve been with them since the beginning or are joining them at this very juncture\, Pathways will make you thankful that you’re along for the journey. \nLOS ECLPISES \nLos Eclipses is a Franco-Mexican duo composed by French singer Eva de Marce and Mexican producer Dan Solo. \nThe frenetic combination of styles between its members creates a sonic layer full of contrasting nuances: from light to darkness\, from melancholy to euphoria\, from calm to celebration. Dan’s extensive production experience\, along with Eva’s enigmatic and captivating voice\, blend together to create a project that has quickly captured the attention of both the public and the media. \nIn just one year since their formation\, Los Eclipses have performed more than 50 shows in 10 countries\, gracing the stages of renowned festivals and venues such as El Palacio de los Deportes (MX)\, Francos de Montréal (CAN)\, Razzmatazz (ES)\, Viva Pomona & SXSW (USA)\, Festival Trópico (MX) among others. They have shared the stage with renowned artists such as Empire of the Sun\, Underworld\, Royskopp\, Moodymann\, Buscabulla and The Whitest Boy Alive\, to name a few. \nIn 2024\, Los Eclipses reached a major milestone with the release of their debut album\, Eden Sauvage. Deeply inspired by the myth of Adam and Eve\, the album fuses electronic and dreamlike tones\, exploring the dualities that define the duo through hypnotic melodies and lyrics filled with mystery. With Eden Sauvage\, Los Eclipses have established themselves as one of the most exciting and unique revelations in the contemporary electro-pop scene.

Over 4\,000 shows. And somehow\, American Aquarium are still finding new ways to surprise us. On New Ways to Lose\, frontman BJ Barham and his band of road warriors turn two decades of survival into a driving\, deeply-felt rock & roll statement — one built on resilience\, reinvention\, and the hard-earned clarity that only comes with time. \n“We’ve always been outsiders\,” says Barham\, whose songwriting has steered the group through lineup changes\, heartache\, addiction\, recovery\, a global pandemic\, and every other obstacle imaginable. Long before algorithms and viral breakthroughs spelled out success in the music industry\, American Aquarium earned their place the old-school way: through relentless touring and a stubborn refusal to disappear\, even when the odds suggested they should. New Ways to Lose turns that outsider status into armor. \nProduced once again by multi-time Grammy winner Shooter Jennings\, the album was recorded in Los Angeles over a 10-day session that captured the band at their most immediate and alive. Much of the record was tracked live\, with Jennings encouraging spontaneity and instinct over perfection\, while a round of overdubs offered the opportunity to add three-part harmonies and horn arrangements to the songs. The result is a muscular\, cinematic record that embraces both sides of American Aquarium’s identity: the bruised confessionals of a songwriter who’s already spent decades sharpening his craft\, and the full-throttle release of an anthemic\, amplified rock & roll band. Hot-wired with the same electricity as their live show\, New Ways to Lose nods to heartland heroes like Bruce Springsteen\, Tom Petty\, and Neil Young while remaining unmistakably American Aquarium. \nFor Barham — who formed the band in 2006 in Raleigh\, North Carolina — the album isn’t just a snapshot on a band at its peak. It’s a personal turning point\, too. “All of my records are yearbooks\,” he says. “Twenty years from now\, I’ll pull them off the shelf and remember exactly who I was when I wrote them.” If earlier albums offered glimpses of a man in his 20s\, making his way through a haze of uncertainty\, heartache\, and bad behavior\, then New Ways to Lose finds Barham writing from a place of hard-won maturity. He’s not just a songwriter anymore; he’s a husband\, father\, and bandleader who’s fully comfortable confronting the dark corners of the human experience. Across these ten songs\, he tackles themes like the downfall of small-town America\, the yearning for true connection\, the socioeconomic wreckage of unconstitutional politics\, and even the devastation of losing a beloved pet\, making room for tenderness and gratitude amidst the sonic stomp of his band. “Twin Flames\,” written for his wife\, stands as one of the most vulnerable love songs of his whole career\, a reflection of a full-grown man no longer afraid to say exactly what he means. \nThe album’s title comes from legendary NC State Wolfpack announcer Gary Hahn\, whose on-air quips — “and NC State finds a new way to lose today” — became metaphors for both sports fandom and the music business. “No matter what success you find\, you’re always looking up the ladder at what you don’t have\,” says Barham\, who’s hand-carved a fiercely independent career outside the traditional machinery of the industry.
