SUMMARY:Jon Anderson of YES
DESCRIPTION:JON ANDERSON OF YES! \nA full retrospective of Anderson’s hits from YES\, Jon & Vangelis\, his solo career\, and music from his new album “1000 Hands.” with special guests The Paul Green Rock Academy at 7:30 \nhttps://youtu.be/OiQUeJWyoK8 \nJon Anderson is undoubtedly one of the most recognizable voices in progressive rock as the lead vocalist and creative force behind Yes. Anderson was the author and a major creative influence behind the ground-breaking album “Fragile” as well as the series of epic\, complex pieces such as “Awaken”\, “Gates of Delirium” and especially “Close to the Edge” which were central to the band’s success. Additionally\, Anderson co-authored the group’s biggest hits\, including “I’ve Seen All Good People”\, “Roundabout”\, and “Owner Of A Lonely Heart”. If you asked Jon\, he would say that he loves the adventure in making music\, as evidenced in 50 years of success in the music business\, working not only with many variations of Yes\, but also with very successful collaborations with Vangelis and Kitaro\, and more recently with Roine Stolt and Jean-Luc Ponty. His collaboration with Vangelis produced a number of hit records\, including “Friends of Mr Cairo” which was groundbreaking in its use of narrative voiceover\, creating a phenomena that was copied by many artists and producers\, most notably Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones with “Thriller”. As Jon would say\, “We all copy each others musical dreams\, it’s the cross-pollenation of music that keeps the world spinning around”. \n \nIn the mid 70s he created a pure solo album\, in every sense of the word: performing all the music\, playing every instrument\, writing a storyline\, and of course singing all the vocals in the critically acclaimed “Olias of Sunhillow”… a milestone in recording and adventurous creativity. You only need to look at his output of solo albums over the years to see how inventive his life in music has been\, from “Animation” to “Song of Seven”\, “Three Ships” to “Toltec”\, “City of Angels” to “The More You Know”\, to name just a few. All of these albums marked his own progression and adventure through music…leading up to 2009 following his near death\, the release of the life affirming album “Survival and Other Stories”. \nIn 2015\, Jon partnered with his dear friend\, world renowned jazz violinist Jean Luc Ponty\, creating a wonderful fusion of jazz and progressive rock in the album “Better Late than Never”. In 2016\, Jon joined forces with well known prog rock guitarist and producer Roine Stolt\, to create “Invention of Knowledge”\, an album with reached great acclaim with critics and fans alike. In 2017 Jon reformed YES with former band members Trevor Rabin and Rick Wakeman … YES Featuring ARW has toured the world to rave reviews and released “Live At The Apollo” CD/DVD in September 2018. \nhttps://youtu.be/HekdjPayAvk \nNever to stand still musically\, he is currently releasing an album he started 28 years ago\, now called “1\,000 Hands” a reference to the fact that numerous guest musicians perform on the album\, including Ian Anderson\, Billy Cobham\, Jean Luc Ponty\, Chick Corea\, Zap Momma\, Chris Squire\, Alan White\, Steve Howe and many more. This album produced by his friend Michael Franklin really speaks to the power of a musical life still in the throes of a fervent artistic endeavor\, always wanting new experiences in music\, always wanting to surprise the listener. The album was released in March 2019. \nFinally\, in Jon’s words: “Music is our spiritual connection to the soul\, that’s why people all over the world connect to Music and to each other through Music”. \nVIP Meet & Greet Packages Available\nAdd a VIP Meet & Greet package to your ticket for $125 per person and meet Jon Anderson before the concert! Select “VIP” option  when ordering your ticket or contact the box office at 740-371-5152. \n-Pre-Show Meet & Greet at 7:00 p.m.\n-Photo Op\n-Poster\n-Tour Laminate \nhttps://youtu.be/4JqYFP5UUp8 \nJon Anderson will be appearing after special guest\, the nationally acclaimed Paul Green Rock Academy\, which will be taking the stage at 7:30.

SUMMARY:Mountain Stage
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Charlie Hunter & Lucy Woodward\,\nJohn Paul White\,\nMolly Tuttle\,\nCharley Crockett\,\n& Jeff Black\nMountain Stage returns to Marietta\, Ohio! \nFor more than 30 years\, Mountain Stage with Larry Groce has been the home of live music on public radio. Produced by West Virginia Public broadcasting and distributed by NPR Music\, each two-hour episode of Mountain Stage can be heard every week on more than 200 stations across America\, and around the world via NPR Music and mountainstage.org. Recorded in front of a live audience\, Mountain Stage features performances from seasoned legends and emerging stars in genres ranging from folk\, blues\, and country; to indie rock\, synth pop\, world music\, alternative\, and beyond. \nCharlie Hunter & Lucy Woodward\n\n\n\n \nAn exhilarating blast of blues\, soul and funk\, Music!Music!Music! marks the recorded debut of the musical partnership between guitarist Charlie Hunter and vocalist Lucy Woodward. \nThe duo first performed together in January 2018\, when Woodward — fresh off supporting her fourth solo album\, 2016’s Til They Bang on the Door — joined forces with Hunter as a last- minute fill-in on a tour he’d originally booked with Mexican singer-songwriter Silvana Estrada (whose visa application had been denied by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security). Bonded by their shared love of blues\, Hunter and Woodward quickly constructed a setlist of favorite songs and hit the road. Within less than a week of playing shows together\, they realized that they’d hit upon something very special\, indeed. \nRecorded in November 2018 at Stephen Lee Price’s studio in High Point\, NC\, with longtime Hunter collaborator Derrek Phillips on the drums\, Music!Music!Music! features eleven radically reworked covers of songs by artists ranging from Blind Willie Johnson and Bessie Smith to Nina Simone and Terence Trent D’Arby. Soulful\, spacious and deliciously in the pocket\, Music!Music!Music! showcases the dazzling interplay between Hunter’s funky guitar and Woodward’s powerful voice\, while also reflecting the spontaneity and good vibes of the duo’s live performances. \nHunter and Woodward will return to the road this spring to take Music!Music!Music! to the people. The tour for the album will stretch over much of 2019\, with the duo going to Europe and Japan as well as all over North America. \nJohn Paul White\n \nJohn Paul White grew up in tiny Loretto\, Tennessee\, and now lives in Florence\, Alabama\, not far\nfrom Muscle Shoals. He has cultivated his career in Nashville for two decades\, first as a songwriter for a major publisher\, then as half of The Civil Wars – a groundbreaking duo that won four Grammy Awards before disbanding in 2012. Because The Civil Wars were so hard to categorize\, White has earned a fan base among indie rock listeners\, folk audiences\, Americana outlets\, and AAA radio. \nMolly Tuttle\n \nA virtuosic\, award-winning guitarist with a gift for insightful songwriting\, Molly Tuttle evolves her signature sound with boundary-breaking songs on her compelling debut album\, When You’re Ready. Already crowned “Instrumentalist of the Year” at the 2018 Americana Music Awards on the strength of her EP\, Tuttle has broken boundaries and garnered the respect of her peers\, winning fans for her incredible flatpicking guitar technique and confessional songwriting. Graced with a clear\, true voice and a keen melodic sense\, the 26-year-old seems poised for a long and exciting career. When You’re Ready\, produced by Ryan Hewitt (The Avett Brothers\, The Lumineers) showcases her astonishing range and versatility and shows that she is more than simply an Americana artist. \nCharley Crockett\n \nGrowing up with a single mother in San Benito\, Texas\, the hometown of Tejano star Freddy Fender was not easy for blues singer Charley Crockett. Hitchhiking across the country exposed Crockett to the street life at a young age\, following in the footsteps of his relative\, American folk hero Davy Crockett\, who also lived a wild life on the American frontier. After train hopping across the country\, singing on the streets for change in New Orleans’ French Quarter\, busking in New York City and performing across Texas and Northern California\, Crockett set off to travel the world and lived on the streets of Paris for nearly a year before searching for home in Spain\, Morocco\, and Northern Africa. \nThe blues artist returned home to Texas and released his debut solo album titled A Stolen Jewel in 2015\, receiving critical acclaim in Dallas and ultimately landing him a Dallas Observer Music Award that year for “Best Blues Act”. A record “rich with Southern flavor\, a musical gumbo of Delta blues\, honky-tonk\, gospel and Cajun jazz\,” Jewel proved that Crockett\, born into poverty in the Rio Grande\, had come home to make his musical mark on the South. Crockett\, who is self-described as elusive\, rebellious and self-taught\, has been compared to legends like Bill Withers\, Merle Haggard\, and Gary Clark Jr. \nHe released his sophomore record In The Night\, an admirable nod to his Texas country and Louisiana blues roots\, on June 4 and ended 2016 having played over 125 shows. “In the Night” and Crockett’s song “I Am Not Afraid” received international recognition from top tastemakers after being picked by NPR Music as one of the “Top 10 Songs Public Radio Can’t Stop Playing” and selected by David Dye to be featured on World Cafe in late July. The Fort Worth Star-Telegram called it “an impressive calling card\, full of Crockett’s plaintive soulfulness and swinging tempos” and Central Track noted the artist as having “the well-rounded songwriting capabilities of Van Morrison and a vocal approach that finds common ground between Bill Withers and early Dr. John.” Crockett graced the cover of Buddy Magazine in May 2016\, who called him “the archetype of the new American vagabond.” \nHe has shared the stage with artists like Turnpike Troubadours\, Leon Bridges\, Justin Townes Earle\, Citizen Cope\, Alejandro Escovedo\, Joe Ely\, Sean Hayes\, Tab Benoit\, Ace Enders and others. \nJeff Black\n \n“His words and voice hold down center stage with a craft so deeply in the artistic pocket that it obscures anything outside” \n– No Depression \nIt’s the truth behind what an artist does and the way they choose to do it that defines their art. And while the ways in which audiences get their music has changed\, the reasons why a certain kind of artist makes music have remained the same. Call it an uncompromising commitment\, an inspired motivation\, or just the need to share with and connect to those who listen. For Jeff Black\, it is his life’s work that has driven him to build a career like few other singer/songwriters in the business. Boston’s WUMB listeners voted Jeff Black as one of the top 100 most important Folk artists of the last 25 years. \nBlack’s songs have earned GRAMMY recognition\, radio chart-topping stats and numerous BMI awards. Although flying below the radar as a performer himself\, he has been recognized by NPR as a musical pioneer in the digital age and his catalogue of critically acclaimed albums continues to grow. Composing music for film and television\, his credits include numerous indie-film soundtracks and a repertoire of songs cut by artists as diverse as Alison Krauss & Union Station\, Waylon Jennings\, BlackHawk\, Dierks Bentley\, Jon Randall\, John Oates\, Jerry Douglas and Sam Bush. Black has forged a reputation as a true folk troubadour entertaining audiences globally for over three decades. A master songwriter and performer in the tradition of the great storytellers\, his passionate\, soul driven live performances of songs from his vast catalog are not to be missed. \nFolklore is the 10th release from the prolific songwriter. Recorded over a 2 day period in Nashville\, Tennessee at Arcana Studios\, Jeff Black arms himself with a guitar\, harmonica and a banjo to traverse the clay-dust roads that trace the cutting edge of pop culture\, delivering a collection of modern folk and acoustic classics. \n“The tradition of an artist delivering songs that are damn near perfectly crafted and filled with the wisdom of the ages.”\n– Jedd Beaudoin | PopMatters

SUMMARY:Sam Bush
DESCRIPTION:With special guest JD Hutchison to open\nThere was only one prize-winning teenager carrying stones big enough to say thanks\, but no thanks to Roy Acuff. Only one son of Kentucky finding a light of inspiration from Bill Monroe and his Blue Grass Boys and catching a fire from Bob Marley and The Wailers. Only one progressive hippie allying with like-minded conspirators\, rolling out the New Grass revolution\, and then leaving the genre’s torch-bearing band behind as it reached its commercial peak. \nThere is only one consensus pick of peers and predecessors\, of the traditionalists\, the rebels\, and the next gen devotees. Music’s ultimate inside outsider. Or is it outside insider? There is only one Sam Bush. \n \nOn a Bowling Green\, Kentucky cattle farm in the post-war 1950s\, Bush grew up an only son\, and with four sisters. His love of music came immediately\, encouraged by his parents’ record collection and\, particularly\, by his father Charlie\, a fiddler\, who organized local jams. Charlie envisioned his son someday a staff fiddler at the Grand Ole Opry\, but a clear day’s signal from Nashville brought to Bush’s television screen a tow-headed boy named Ricky Skaggs playing mandolin with Flatt and Scruggs\, and an epiphany for Bush. At 11\, he purchased his first mandolin. \nAs a teen fiddler Bush was a three-time national champion in the junior division of the National Oldtime Fiddler’s Contest. He recorded an instrumental album\, Poor Richard’s Almanac as a high school senior and in the spring of 1970 attended the Fiddlers Convention in Union Grove\, NC. There he heard the New Deal String Band\, taking notice of their rock-inspired brand of progressive bluegrass. \n \nAcuff offered him a spot in his band. Bush politely turned down the country titan. It was not the music he wanted to play. He admired the grace of Flatt & Scruggs\, loved Bill Monroe- even saw him perform at the Ryman- but he’d discovered electrified alternatives to tradition in the Osborne Brothers and manifest destiny in The Dillards. \nSee the photo of a fresh-faced Sam Bush in his shiny blue high school graduation gown\, circa 1970. Tufts of blonde hair breaking free of the borders of his squared cap\, Bush is smiling\, flanked by his proud parents. The next day he was gone\, bound for Los Angeles. He got as far as his nerve would take him- Las Vegas- then doubled back to Bowling Green. \n“I started working at the Holiday Inn as a busboy\,” Bush recalls. “Ebo Walker and Lonnie Peerce came in one night asking if I wanted to come to Louisville and play five nights a week with the Bluegrass Alliance. That was a big\, ol’ ‘Hell yes\, let’s go.'” \nBush played guitar in the group\, then began playing after recruiting guitarist Tony Rice to the fold. Following a fallout with Peerce in 1971\, Bush and his Alliance mates- Walker\, Courtney Johnson\, and Curtis Burch- formed the New Grass Revival\, issuing the band’s debut\, New Grass Revival. Walker left soon after\, replaced temporarily by Butch Robins\, with the quartet solidifying around the arrival of bassist John Cowan. \n“There were already people that had deviated from Bill Monroe’s style of bluegrass\,” Bush explains. “If anything\, we were reviving a newgrass style that had already been started. Our kind of music tended to come from the idea of long jams and rock-&-roll songs.” \nShunned by some traditionalists\, New Grass Revival played bluegrass fests slotted in late-night sets for the “long-hairs and hippies.” Quickly becoming a favorite of rock audiences\, they garnered the attention of Leon Russell\, one of the era’s most popular artists. Russell hired New Grass as his supporting act on a massive tour in 1973 that put the band nightly in front of tens of thousands. \nAt tour’s end\, it was back to headlining six nights a week at an Indiana pizza joint. But\, they were resilient\, grinding it out on the road. And in 1975 the Revival first played Telluride\, Colorado\, forming a connection with the region and its fans that has prospered for 45 years. \nBush was the newgrass commando\, incorporating a variety of genres into the repertoire. He discovered a sibling similarity with the reggae rhythms of Marley and The Wailers\, and\, accordingly\, developed an ear-turning original style of mandolin playing. The group issued five albums in their first seven years\, and in 1979 became Russell’s backing band. By 1981\, Johnson and Burch left the group\, replaced by banjoist Bela Fleck and guitarist Pat Flynn. \nA three-record contract with Capitol Records and a conscious turn to the country market took the Revival to new commercial heights. Bush survived a life-threatening bout with cancer\, and returned to the group that’d become more popular than ever. They released chart-climbing singles\, made videos\, earned Grammy nominations\, and\, at their zenith\, called it quits. \n“We were on the verge of getting bigger\,” recalls Bush. “Or maybe we’d gone as far as we could. I’d spent 18 years in a four-piece partnership. I needed a break. But\, I appreciated the 18 years we had.” \nBush worked the next five years with Emmylou Harris’ Nash Ramblers\, then a stint with Lyle Lovett. He took home three-straight IBMA Mandolin Player of the Year awards\, 1990-92\, (and a fourth in 2007). In 1995 he reunited with Fleck\, now a burgeoning superstar\, and toured with the Flecktones\, reigniting his penchant for improvisation. Then\, finally\, after a quarter-century of making music with New Grass Revival and collaborating with other bands\, Sam Bush went solo. \nHe’s released seven albums and a live DVD over the past two decades. In 2009\, the Americana Music Association awarded Bush the Lifetime Achievement Award for Instrumentalist. Punch Brothers\, Steep Canyon Rangers\, and Greensky Bluegrass are just a few present-day bluegrass vanguards among so many musicians he’s influenced. His performances are annual highlights of the festival circuit\, with Bush’s joyous perennial appearances at the town’s famed bluegrass fest earning him the title\, “King of Telluride.” \n“With this band I have now I am free to try anything. Looking back at the last 50 years of playing newgrass\, with the elements of jazz improvisation and rock-&-roll\, jamming\, playing with New Grass Revival\, Leon\, and Emmylou; it’s a culmination of all of that\,” says Bush. “I can unapologetically stand onstage and feel I’m representing those songs well.” \nJD Hutchison\n \nJ.D. Hutchison is a native of the Appalachian region of southeastern Ohio. He was born\, the second of four sons to John Williams and Emma Jane Harper Hutchison\, in a tiny three-room house located one mile west of the town square in the village of Barnesville. His was a musical family. His father was a well-known guitarist and fiddler in the community; he often appeared with his wife (J.D.’s mother) as a singing duo at public functions in the area. There seemed to be an unfailing congregation of local players nearby every week at someone-or-another’s house where a plentiful table would be at the ready and music would prevail until all were played out. These conditions imbued JD from early childhood with a strong affection and affinity for tradition-based string music. \nLearn more: http://www.jdhutchison.com \n
