Connor Christian and The Southern Gothic in Concert(730-930pm)
with opening act Guava Train
Friday November 19, 2021
Doors630/Show 7:00-opening act Guava train
$20 advance/$25 door
Masks may be required to enter Art Center snd to access Bar and Restrooms
For Connor Christian, frontman & principal songwriter of The Southern Gothic, life has always been about the journey. The son of an American serviceman & diplomat, that journey started at 6 months old, when his family moved from Los Angeles to Jakarta, Indonesia and from there on to places such as Singapore, South Korea, and Belgium, as well as stints all over the US. “I never lived anywhere long enough to think of it as a hometown, to make those lifelong memories and associations, so I learned to take little pieces from every stop and make them part of my story”
That story led Connor to Atlanta GA as a young adult. Stints in several other bands led to the formation of The Southern Gothic with former Truckadelic drummer Shawn Thacker. What started as a high energy, house cover band at venerated Atlanta dive bar, Dixie Tavern, grew along with Connor’s writing to become the band that Billboard Magazine called it’s ‘Band on the Verge’. Ten months later, the band’s second album, ‘New Hometown’ debuted #1 on Billboard’s Heatseeker chart and #17 on it’s country albums chart. The same month, the first single from the record, “Sheets Down” reached #1 on CMT’s Pure Country 12-Pack Countdown, a spot it held for 4 weeks. The album, a 20-song semi-autobiographical opus, equal parts Tennessee Williams & Homer, “Tumbleweed Connection” era Elton John, Guns n Roses and Chris Stapleton - tells the story of a man looking for a home, and artist searching for his muse, and a band finding its own way.
People surprised by the band’s ‘overnight’ chart success hadn’t been paying attention to the way the band built that excitement. Averaging almost 200 shows per year for the previous 4 years, the band built a chemistry with each other and a reputation for an electric live show – even the acoustic ones. Sharing stages with bands as diverse as Willie Nelson, ZZ Top, Uncle Kracker, Styx, Zac Brown Band, and Heart, SoGo’s honest lyrics, heartfelt melodies, and stellar musicianship cut through to appeal to fans across the world without regard to genre, age, or locale.
With the 2020 release of the Southern Gothic’s New EP, Burnin’ Moonlight, Connor, Thacker and the band prove again that they will continue to evolve, unbound and unafraid to explore new territory every time out. Working with Grammy-winning producer Jonathan Roye (Kelsey Ballerini) and Grammy-nominated producer Keith Hetrick (Charlie Wilson) SoGo explores the intersection of Americana, Pop, and Rock n’ Roll to create something uniquely now and undeniably, The Southern Gothic.

GLORIA RICE
Gloria Rice, a native Floridian, is ecstatic to be a part of the local music scene after almost a decade away performing in New York City. While there, she shared the stage with such esteemed artists as Lorna Luft, Tituss Burgess and Lillias White. Since her return to FL sand soil, she has appeared as Eva Peron in Evita and Elizabeth in Young Frankenstein both at the magical Eight O’Clock Theatre as well as numerous concerts both at SHAMC and EOT.

Her #1 bucket list country to visit is India.
LAURA STACK

Meaghan Farrell in Concert
Friday November 5, 2021
Doors 7pm /Show 730pm
$20 in Advance /$25 at the door
All Shows Rain or Shine
This concert will be held on the indoor stage due to possible inclimate weather!
Masks may be required to enter Art Center snd to access Bar and Restrooms
As an emerging singer-songwriter in New York City and Nashville, Meaghan Farrell didn't know her own power. Or, maybe it would be more accurate to say that she simply didn't know how to harness it. She had always loved to sing, turning heads with her strong voice at a young age in her hometown of Harrisburg, PA. Meaghan knew early that she was meant to write songs, perform, and connect with people. For several years she did just that – writing and producing a number of independent recordings, gathering experience and confidence as she toured around the country in support of her music. Like so many new artists, Meaghan was proud of her early songs, but the material wasn't completely "her", she hadn't yet found her voice.
Driving around the country as a touring singer-songwriter can be a lonely proposition, with lots of time to think behind the wheel, to get to know one's self. It was on this journey of self-discovery that Meaghan realized that her artist voice was actually the voice inside her own head. "Conversations with Myself came out of an extraordinary time in my life," Meaghan says. "I was no longer willing to accept feeling certain kinds of familiar pain anymore. It all started with checking in with myself every single day, over a cup of coffee in the morning. It was through this sort of meditation that I began the journey of healing a very broken heart. I am still on that journey. I am still talking to myself, trying to more deeply understand who I am... and I am learning how truly grateful I am for all that I have and all I can give."
After two years of writing and touring, Meaghan recently teamed up with production duo Nate and Dan Monea at their Little C Studios in Canton, Ohio. The Moneas helped her express the full range of her emotions: from heartbreak to healing, from injustice to empowerment, from anxiety to confidence, Meaghan shares it all. Her philosophy is simple - the best version of yourself has always been there, it is often too noisy to hear that voice. The trick is to quiet the world, quiet yourself until you can truly hear it. The clarity. The calm. The love.
With her powerful new music, Meaghan Farrell aspires to be heard for many years to come. One conversation at a time. One song at a time. Meaghan says, "Look into the deepest, darkest parts of yourself. Get uncomfortable. Accept it all with love, compassion and gratitude for where you've been. I believe from that place, your dreams start to become your reality."

Sam Robbins in Concert
Saturday November 13,2021
door 7pm/Show 730pm
$20 in Advance /$25 at the door
All Shows Rain or Shine
Masks may be required to enter Art Center snd to access Bar and Restrooms
Sam Robbins describes himself as an "old soul singer songwriter." A Nashville based musician whose music evokes classic 70's singer songwriters like James Taylor and Neil Young, Sam adds a modern, upbeat edge to the storyteller troubadour persona. An avid performer, he has gained recognition from extensive touring and as the first artist to perform a Jim Croce song on NBC's The Voice. He is currently one of 24 finalists chosen in the 2021 Kerville New Folk Festival songwriting competition, one of the most prestigious songwriting competitions in the country.
Sam released his debut album, Finally Feeling Young, on May 14th, 2021. The album is reminiscent of his 70's singer-songwriter heroes, with a modern perspective. On the heels of the award winning opening single, 'Remind Me", Finally Feeling Young has already garnered radio airplay and has produced several other award winning tracks, including the social commentary single "Saying Amen." Of the album, Robbins says: “This is my first album, and I think it’s special in that way. There’s a feeling of discovery in it. You can hear my voice, and my perspective, change throughout the recording. My artistry is something that I think listeners want but are missing today.”
Over his career, Sam has performed countless shows across the country, in theaters, house concerts, biker bars, weddings, proposals, frat parties, and everything in between. Sam is able to tour full time, and feels at home in both intimate listening rooms and larger venues. Wherever he is performing, Sam builds an intimate, easy connection with the listener, naturally creating a feeling of closeness throughout the performance.
Since moving to Nashville in September 2019 following his graduation from Berklee College of Music, Sam has made a splash in music city - performing at the Bluebird Cafe within a month of moving, and sitting in again at the legendary venue with Liz Longley in February. Sam was the audience winner of the "Nashville Rising Song" qualifier event in September, and won the Eddie's Attic Songwriter's shootout competition in Atlanta in early March 2020.
In 2018, Sam was able to audition on NBC's The Voice for Adam Levine, Kelly Clarkson, Blake Shelton and Jennifer Hudson. He was the season's "Young James Taylor" and he was the first artist to ever perform a Jim Croce song on the show.
Sam considers himself a student of songwriting, constantly searching and learning about why songs have the impact they do. A 2019 graduate of Berklee College of Music's songwriting department, he has hosted many songwriting workshops and masterclasses, including at the Harvard Music Department and the Boys & Girls Club of Boston. In his performances and workshops, Sam explores the magic behind the craft of songwriting, and tries to help others express themselves through the unique and powerful medium of songwriting.

Pussy Galore- $125.00 She is a modeling a dirty, flouoncy, little frock from the design house of Mutiny on the Body. The skirt is mostly cat hair, thanks to the assistant design team of Cosmo and Colette Klein. They certainly gave their all for this piece. Their hair compromises about 50% of the skirt. Materials Consultant Mary Cummings provided raw and dyed goat hair. The cat and goat hair billows on a base of the finest black construction pape. Pussy is cinched at the waist with a studded belt, which is matched by her collar… I mean choker. A little bell dangles from the choker so you know she’s coming in a big way. Pussy’s hat is black felt, accented by screen door mesh and feathers found at a massacre site in the backyard. The front of the hat sports a whimsical bit of ephemera in the shape of a birdcage, depicting a little bird flying free. Be careful little birdie, or pussy will get youth her sandpaper tongue!(made with sandpaper touched with a dab of pink paint.) She stands atop a mound of Crayons model Magic encrusted with catnip mice. Pussy likes kick off her stilettos and wade through the catnip after a long day at the spa. Anyone have some good catnip? Meeeeow! Pussy sports a whimsical mouse bag which hangs from a bead chain, also from mutiny on the Body Acccessories. Some embellishments were provided by the design teams toy box. Yes, Ladies and Gentleman, you would Meow-wow them in this purrrfect couture creation from the design house of Muntiny on the Body. Artist- Debbie Kline-Safety Harbor, FL

Plastic is Not Fantastic Hello and thank you for checking out DemiGod's (a.k.a. Demeree Barth) doll- sized wearable art! This type of fashion design is a departure from her usual human sized fashions, but with every challenge, we grow as artists and humans. So, this design sprung from the materials that were available to her at home, and not only that, were from her recycling bin! There's nothing like adding a challenge on top of another challenge! Anyway, in her bin was many types of plastic, so she wrapped, cut, and twisted this material around her doll. This drove the theme of her doll's fashion, which is ways to cut down on the use of plastics. It is her desire to not only cut down using plastic in her life, but also bring more social awareness to her human-sized Wearable Art fashions in the future. This plastics problem should be addressed with our younger community in an artistic way. At the conclusion of this show at SHAMc, this doll will be displayed in her elementary art classroom. It will also serve to inspire the Wearable Art Club that the teaching artist started at her school. Follow #wearableartkidsclub on Instagram for fun images and videos of her kids creating! Artist Demeree Barth- Seminole FL |

This is part of the Save our Oceans collection by Demi , Terri, montiki, Adrianne and Beth. We wanted to show the importance of our underwater life and the over use of plastics. Coral Reef is wearing a custom train color our colorful reef and reminder to save our reef. Artist Beth Warmath- Clearwater .FL |

Groundbreaking young blues visionary Selwyn Birchwood will release his highly anticipated third Alligator album,
Living In A Burning House, on Friday, January 29, 2021. The rising guitar and lap steel player calls his original music “electric swamp funkin’ blues,” defined by raw and soulful musicianship played with fire-and-brimstone fervor. His gritty, unvarnished vocals draw his audience deep inside his unforgettable tales of love, passion, pain and pleasure. No other band on the current blues scene is built quite like Birchwood’s. In addition to Selwyn’s electrifying guitar and lap steel playing, the other featured instrument is Regi Oliver’s driving baritone sax. The group is rounded out by bass, drums and, for the first time, keyboards.
Wanting to capture the power of the now larger band, Birchwood wrote and arranged 13 new songs, and brought in famed Grammy Award-winning musician Tom Hambridge (Buddy Guy, Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, Susan Tedeschi) to produce. From the rocking opener I’d Climb Mountains to the sweet soul of She’s A Dime and One More Time to the hair-raising Revelation, Living In A Burning House features some of the most vividly striking writing on today’s blues scene. Birchwood’s voice and vision are clear, his sound is edgy and compelling, and his stories are memorable and lasting.
According to Birchwood, “I tell my stories in my own way, with my own voice. You won’t ever hear me on stage telling someone else's story. Muddy Waters, B.B. King and John Lee Hooker all told their own stories. That’s what I’m doing.”
Since the 2014 release of his Alligator Records debut, Don’t Call No Ambulance, Birchwood’s meteoric rise from playing small Florida clubs to headlining international festival stages is nothing short of phenomenal. The album received the Blues Music Award and Living Blues Critics’ Award for Best Debut Album Of 2014, and he won the 2015 Blues Blast Rising Star Award. Rave reviews ran in publications from Rolling Stone to The Wall Street Journal, from The Chicago Tribune to The San Francisco Chronicle. He followed in 2016 with Pick Your Poison. DownBeat said, “There’s a deep-seated power about Birchwood’s singing and six string/lap steel guitar work...and there’s an unmistakab le emotion and honesty linking him to forebears like Muddy Waters. Thoughtful, persuasive and rugged.”
Birchwood and his band have crisscrossed the U.S. and Europe repeatedly, delivering unforgettable live performances. They have appeared domestically at festivals including The Chicago Blues Festival, Portland’s Waterfront Blues Festival, The Mississippi Valley Blues Festival, The Tampa Bay Blues Festival, The North Atlantic Blues Festival, The King Biscuit Blues Festival as well as on The Legendary Rhythm & Blues Cruise and Joe Bonamassa’s Keeping The Blues Alive At Sea. Internationally, they have performed at The Great British Rhythm & Blues Festival, Jazz a Vienne in France, the Rawa Blues Festival in Poland, the Moulin Blues Festival in the Netherlands, the Ottawa Blues Festival and the Montreal Jazz Festival in Canada, the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland, as well as playing concerts in Spain, Norway, the Czech Republic, Ireland, Belgium and Mexico.

“I write and sing what I know,” says Birchwood, whose musical innovations are as expansive as his influences are deep. With Living In A Burning House, Selwyn Birchwood is looking forward to winning over thousands of new fans. “They say everything is better when it’s made with love,” says Birchwood. “That’s how we play our music and that’s how we made the new album. I want my audience to say, ‘I know exactly what that feels like,’ when a song hits them. Because that’s when it stops just being music and starts being medicine. After all, we are all stricken with the condition of being human.”

Tickets at shamc.org or call 727-725-4018 Rain or Shine/No Refunds
After a series of indie record releases, Shawn Mullins’ critical breakthrough came when 1998 Soul’s Core album shot him to fame on the strength of its Grammy-nominated No. 1 hit, “Lullaby” followed byAAA/Americana No. 1 “Beautiful Wreck” from 2006’s 9th Ward Pickin Parlor. His song, “Shimmer” was used in promotion of the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney and was included on the Dawson’s Creek soundtrack. He co-wrote “All in My Head” which was featured in episode one of the hit TV sitcom “Scrubs.” Mullins
also co-wrote the Zac Brown Band’s No. 1 country tune “Toes.” In early 2002, he formed super group The Thorns withMatthew Sweet and Peter Droge. Mullins’ most recent album My Stupid Heart, was released in 2015, the theme of which, Mullins says, can be summed up most succinctly by the song title, “It All Comes Down ToLove,” the guiding force behind just about every song on the album. Mullins is currently embarking on a recording project in conjunction with the 20th anniversary of the release of his album Soul’s Core, which came out July 17, 1998! He always performs songs from Soul’s Core in his live sets including “Lullaby” (Rockabye), “Gulf of Mexico,” “Twin Rocks Oregon,” “Shimmer” and “Anchored in You”. The song arrangements have evolved through the years as he continues to perform them live and grow as an artist.For the 20th anniversary, Shawn will revisit the music on Soul’s Core and record two new versions of the
album. He is calling this Soul’s Core Revival. This is not a remix or a remaster of the original, but rather brand new recordings with new arrangements of the songs – one album will be new stripped down solo performances, some on guitar, some on piano and maybe one a cappella and the second will be a new studio recording with his full band, Soul Carnival.

Darrell Scott in Concert

Doors 7pm/Show 7:30pm
$30 advance/$35 at door if available
RAIN or SHINE no refunds
Multi-Instrumentalist and Singer-Songwriter Darrell Scott mines and cultivates the everyday moment, taking the rote, menial, mundane, and allowing it to be surreal, ever poignant, and candidly honest, lilting, blooming, and resonating. The words he fosters allow us to make sense of the world, what is at stake here, and our place in it. And ultimately, Darrell knows the sole truth of life is that love is all that matters, that we don’t always get it right, but that’s the instinctive and requisite circuitous allure of things, why we forever chase it, and why it is held sacred.

From there, things only ramped up with literature and poetry endeavors while a student at Tufts University, along with playing his way through life. This would never change.
After recently touring with Robert Plant and the Zac Brown Band (2 years with each), and producing albums for Malcolm Holcomb and Guy Clark and being named “songwriter of the year” for both ASCAP and NSAI, these days find him roaming his Tennessee wilderness acreage hiking along the small river, creating delicious meals with food raised on his property and playing music. He often leads songwriting workshops to help people tell their own truths with their stories, and is as busy as always writing, producing, performing, and just plain fully immersing himself in life..

Charlie Mars in Concert
Friday JAnuary 29, 2021
doors 7pm / show 730pm
$20 in Advance/$25 at the door if available
Charlie Mars has been a journeyman artist with all the ups and downs that entails, from major label releases and high profile gigs opening for the likes of REM, KT Tunstall, Citizen Cope, Steve Earle, among others, from uncertainty to redemption. Now, with the extraordinary new Blackberry Light, the Mississippi-based troubadour builds upon the distinctive musical approach first mined on his 2009 breakthrough Like A Bird, Like A Plane, employing supple grooves and ambient Daniel Lanois-inspired production to enhance the elemental force of his classic songwriting influenced by the likes of Bob Marley, Bill Withers and Dire Straits. From the dreamlike, “Nothing But The Rain,” to the shimmering “Picture of an Island,” the album sees Mars delving deep within to offer insight and a path to self awareness and ultimately transcendence via a gracefully beatific distillation of folk, rock, and smooth acoustic soul.

Hi, I’m Dan. I’m a whiskey & beer drinking, fishing & hunting loving, motorcycle riding, quality food eating, hippie sympathizing, people loving, husband & father who lives in Minneapolis and shares a life with my amazing wife and two adorable sons named Oak and Alder. I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, MI, and moved to Minneapolis when I was 18 to study music, and I stayed because I’m one of those crazy people that enjoys the snow and cold weather.
Music is my trade & performing it for people is my passion. When I’m not in my studio writing songs and cutting records, or on the road playing shows, I’m usually tending to our backyard chickens, eating fresh veggies from my wife’s huge garden, making syrup from our city maples, or doing one of my many outdoor hobbies.
Now here are a few things about my music career that I should probably share in a music bio:
• In September 2014 Budweiser released their "Friends Are Waiting" commercial campaign featuring me singing my song When You Come Home and it premiered during the Super Bowl.
• In February, 2018, I released my newest album 25 Years and is the most prolific and widely distributed album to date, featuring songs that have been placed in major ads as well as widely played Spotify playlists.
• In October, 2018, Miller Lite featured my newest single “So Good” in one of their commercials that played for months during NFL games on ESPN & more.
• In March, 2019, my song “You Feel Like Home” was featured in Explore Minnesota Tourism’s newest ad campaign.
• Over the years I’ve had the honor of sharing the stage with some really cool artists & bands including The Civil Wars, Andy Grammer, Eric Hutchinson, Matt Nathanson, NeedtoBreathe, Augustana, Tyrone Wells, Haley Reinhart, John McLaughlin, Will Hoge, Drew Holcomb, Sister Hazel, and more.

The Currys have been staking their claim within the Americana music scene since 2013, when vocalist/guitarist Tommy Curry quit his teaching job and moved to Charlottesville, Virginia, to join the harmony-based folk-rock outfit newly formed by brother Jimmy Curry (vocals, guitar) and cousin Galen Curry (vocals, bass). The band, who cut their teeth playing the oyster bars and listening rooms of the Florida Panhandle, has since written and released two full-length albums: their studio debut Follow (2014), called “eye-opening, but warmly familiar” by Earmilk, and whose title track is “one of the most beautiful pieces of music I’ve ever heard” (Todd Moe of NCPR); and sophomore effort West of Here (2016), with its “tight-as-a-rubber-band” harmonies and “infectious” songwriting (PopMatters).
For their third album, This Side of the Glass (2019), The Currys teamed up with producer/guitarist Sam Whedon and engineer Stewart Myers (Jason Mraz, Parachute) to map new terrain. As ever, the band’s three-part family harmonies provide the organic, lived-in feel of roots music, but the album aspires to a greater variety of form and orchestration than earlier releases. The songs defy any neat categorization: the country nostalgia of “Gulf Coast Home” complements the folk-pop sensibility of “Pin You Down,” while the guitars and gang vocals of “Soon Enough” pay unmistakable homage to Paul Simon’s “Graceland.”
Lyrically, This Side of the Glass explores questions of perspective, an apt consideration for a band featuring three songwriters. Each Curry offers his take on the time-worn threads of life and love, contributing to the album’s tapestry of introspection and social commentary. Likewise, each in turn ruminates on the paradox faced by every performing songwriter: how to balance one’s roles as both the author of stories and the object of storytelling. This Side of the Glass is an insightful and satisfying new chapter from a band with many more stories to tell.

There's a certain kind of music that carries with it an honesty, a sense of what's true, the pared back wisdom of a life on the road. Connor's sound embodies that raw Southern sincerity; he's got a big voice, writes big harmonies, and his catchy songs express a laid-back storytelling of the places he's been, and the things that he's seen. And he's been all over the place - in both his life and his music, and having grown up across Asia, Europe, and North America Connor now calls Nashville, Tennessee home. Starting out in folk, then rap, and citing influences as diverse as Elton John, The Band, Sam Cooke, and The Eagles, his sound is a melting pot of rock, soul, and country. When he's not playing with a band he's playing anything from piano and guitar to mandolin, or taking to the stage with a kick drum and a loop station.
Connor has spent the best part of a decade as frontman of country/rock outfit The Southern Gothic, headlining across the country, as well as sharing the stage with the likes of Willie Nelson, Tim McGraw, Zac Brown Band and Uncle Kracker. The group has seen much success in recent years, including being named Billboard's 2014 "Band on the Verge", 2015 GA Entertainer of the Year, Creative Loafing's 2015 "Best Country Band", and spending four weeks at #1 on CMT Pure with their video for Sheets Down. Having released three albums during his time with The Southern Gothic, his forthcoming album Skeletons, due for release in August, is his first solo project as Connor, and is set to be a ride through the open roads of unique warmth and laid-back grit of his sound.

Mark T. Brown, Emeritus Professor
LECTURE ABSTARCT Paper or Plastic...Recycle, Reuse, Repurpose? The now familiar question... paper or plastic? is not subject to a simple single syllable answer. The correct answer is, “it depends”. What if one or the other costs more money, or uses more nonrenewable energy, or causes uneven employment opportunities, or environmental impacts? The “best” alternative often is not the best within each of these frames of reference. Like “paper or plastic?” the question about Recycle, Reuse or Repurpose has much the same answer...it depends. Each of these alternative strategies requires expenditures of resources. They require different expenditures of money. They have differing social consequences (jobs). And they each have different environmental impacts. Decisions regarding RRR need to be made from a whole systems perspective where the benefits within each frame of reference are weighed against the costs. We might also apply the same perspective to renewable energy sources (solar, wind, etc.). It is often assumed that renewable energy trumps everything... “If it is renewable its got to be good”. But not always so...renewable energy sources are not always the silver bullet many think they are. In the best of all worlds decisions about renewable energy and recycle options need to include not only economic costs and benefits, but environmental, energetic, and social costs and benefits as well. In this talk we will explore how to combine these various costs and benefits within a single framework to ultimately make better decisions regarding renew-ability, recycle-ability, reuse-ability, and repurpose-ability. |
Eve C. Williams, Architect
LECTURE ABSTARCT What is “Green” Design Design and construction practices that significantly reduce or eliminate the negative impact of buildings on the environment and occupants in five broad areas: · Sustainable site planning· Safeguarding water and water use efficiency · Energy efficiency and renewable energy· Conservation of materials and resources · Indoor environmental quality Making a Difference In 2003, the City of Tallahassee decided to expand and completely renovate its 30-year old Solid Waste Services operations and administration building adding a second floor and vertical circulation. During initial planning it was decided that the renovated building should set a standard for environmentally responsible design and building practices. To this end, it was decided to pursue United States Green Building Coalition (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED® ) Green Building (GB) certification. Project Goals •Create Healthy internal working environments for our employees. •Reduce the negative impact on the external environment. •Serve as a prototype for all future buildings and as a model to private/public |
Grant V. Genova, Architect
LECTURE ABSTARCT Re-cycle, Re-purpose and Design Thinking CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING IN A CLIMATE CHANGING ERA We need to adjust, prioritize, experiment and get sensitive to our tiny blue dot. Rethinking the precepts of the organic school of thought and applying them to our contemporary post-industrial landscape by Design thinking, recycling, re-purposing and the benefits that these ideas have on society. Since, built environments after all should be the quest for harmony between human beings and their regional climate. "Our goal is to raise awareness to the importance of specific topics and activate people's interest, hopefully by showing how fun, easy and beneficial it can be to be more environmentally conscious" IDEAS should be complex not complicated. We need to embrace the complexity, and the difficult and sometimes painful feedback that comes along with it. The result is inclusion in it's fullest capacity, embracing innovative, community driven solutions |
Workshops related to casting recycled materials into building components will be offered in the afternoon on both days led by Grant V. Genova, Architect of SHAMc.
DESCRIPTION OF WORKSHOPS
Included in the conference will be workshops, explaining and doing many of the processes we've used to repurpose and recycle material for use in buildings.
During the workshop we will create modular parts made from re-cycled / re-claimed material. Modular parts that transform into a structural system, building components which assemble into a small building and structural fences.
The module of construction will be a 2' x 2' structual component that is designed to attach itself to other components making a modular assembly.
One of the constructions will be a small, 12 by 12 building, another will be a 20 foot in length structural fence.
Other constructions that could be built would be (Projections), such as decks, carports, balconies, patio covers, utility wall, bench, garbage bin etc.

The Currys in Concert
Sunday March 29,2020
doors 630pm/show 7pm
$20 in adv/$25 at the door
Postponed
“Stirring vocals…from a promising new band.” – C-Ville Weekly
“…toothsome and satisfying…” – Popshifter on West of Here
“It’s is almost impossible not to be moved, physically and metaphorically, by the gorgeously composed tracks on this album.” – Wordkrapht on Follow
The Currys have been staking their claim within the Americana music scene since 2013, when vocalist/guitarist Tommy Curry quit his teaching job and moved to Charlottesville, Virginia, to join the harmony-based folk-rock outfit newly formed by brother Jimmy Curry (vocals, guitar) and cousin Galen Curry (vocals, bass). The band, who cut their teeth playing the oyster bars and listening rooms of the Florida Panhandle, has since written and released two full-length albums: their studio debut Follow (2014), called “eye-opening, but warmly familiar” by Earmilk, and whose title track is “one of the most beautiful pieces of music I’ve ever heard” (Todd Moe of NCPR); and sophomore effort West of Here (2016), with its “tight-as-a-rubber-band” harmonies and “infectious” songwriting (PopMatters).
For their third album, This Side of the Glass (2019), The Currys teamed up with producer/guitarist Sam Whedon and engineer Stewart Myers (Jason Mraz, Parachute) to map new terrain. As ever, the band’s three-part family harmonies provide the organic, lived-in feel of roots music, but the album aspires to a greater variety of form and orchestration than earlier releases. The songs defy any neat categorization: the country nostalgia of “Gulf Coast Home” complements the folk-pop sensibility of “Pin You Down,” while the guitars and gang vocals of “Soon Enough” pay unmistakable homage to Paul Simon’s “Graceland.”
Lyrically, This Side of the Glass explores questions of perspective, an apt consideration for a band featuring three songwriters. Each Curry offers his take on the time-worn threads of life and love, contributing to the album’s tapestry of introspection and social commentary. Likewise, each in turn ruminates on the paradox faced by every performing songwriter: how to balance one’s roles as both the author of stories and the object of storytelling. This Side of the Glass is an insightful and satisfying new chapter from a band with many more stories to tell.

Reflecting prominent, traditional Indian influences and strong Western influences, WAHH World Fusion Band also brings in subtle influences from the Middle East and Africa. The music is original, captivating and colorfully dynamic. It is mostly instrumental, occasionally dotted with emotional Indian style vocals or mesmerizing ‘Rhythmic Scatting’ by Shankh. WAHH’s live performances often showcase Shankh spontaneously engaging an eager audience into a Rhythmic frenzy of irresistible clapping along and ‘call and response’ participation. WAHH’s compelling compositions seduce listeners into an adventurous soundscape of sublime contemplation, surprising musical turns and infectious, high-energy grooves. Their congruent fit of Eastern and Western instruments, masterful fusing of musical genres and artful combination of traditional and modern musical expression appeals to wide and diverse audiences with a distinct Global Appeal.

LECTURE ABSTARCT Paper or Plastic...Recycle, Reuse, Repurpose? The now familiar question... paper or plastic? is not subject to a simple single syllable answer. The correct answer is, “it depends”. What if one or the other costs more money, or uses more nonrenewable energy, or causes uneven employment opportunities, or environmental impacts? The “best” alternative often is not the best within each of these frames of reference. Like “paper or plastic?” the question about Recycle, Reuse or Repurpose has much the same answer...it depends. Each of these alternative strategies requires expenditures of resources. They require different expenditures of money. They have differing social consequences (jobs). And they each have different environmental impacts. Decisions regarding RRR need to be made from a whole systems perspective where the benefits within each frame of reference are weighed against the costs. We might also apply the same perspective to renewable energy sources (solar, wind, etc.). It is often assumed that renewable energy trumps everything... “If it is renewable its got to be good”. But not always so...renewable energy sources are not always the silver bullet many think they are. In the best of all worlds decisions about renewable energy and recycle options need to include not only economic costs and benefits, but environmental, energetic, and social costs and benefits as well. In this talk we will explore how to combine these various costs and benefits within a single framework to ultimately make better decisions regarding renew-ability, recycle-ability, reuse-ability, and repurpose-ability. |

LECTURE ABSTARCT What is “Green” Design Design and construction practices that significantly reduce or eliminate the negative impact of buildings on the environment and occupants in five broad areas: · Sustainable site planning· Safeguarding water and water use efficiency · Energy efficiency and renewable energy· Conservation of materials and resources · Indoor environmental quality Making a Difference In 2003, the City of Tallahassee decided to expand and completely renovate its 30-year old Solid Waste Services operations and administration building adding a second floor and vertical circulation. During initial planning it was decided that the renovated building should set a standard for environmentally responsible design and building practices. To this end, it was decided to pursue United States Green Building Coalition (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED® ) Green Building (GB) certification. Project Goals •Create Healthy internal working environments for our employees. •Reduce the negative impact on the external environment. •Serve as a prototype for all future buildings and as a model to private/public |
Grant V. Genova, Architect
LECTURE ABSTARCT Re-cycle, Re-purpose and Design Thinking CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING IN A CLIMATE CHANGING ERA We need to adjust, prioritize, experiment and get sensitive to our tiny blue dot. Rethinking the precepts of the organic school of thought and applying them to our contemporary post-industrial landscape by Design thinking, recycling, re-purposing and the benefits that these ideas have on society. Since, built environments after all should be the quest for harmony between human beings and their regional climate. "Our goal is to raise awareness to the importance of specific topics and activate people's interest, hopefully by showing how fun, easy and beneficial it can be to be more environmentally conscious" IDEAS should be complex not complicated. We need to embrace the complexity, and the difficult and sometimes painful feedback that comes along with it. The result is inclusion in it's fullest capacity, embracing innovative, community driven solutions |
Workshops related to casting recycled materials into building components will be offered in the afternoon on both days led by Grant V. Genova, Architect of SHAMc.
DESCRIPTION OF WORKSHOPS
Included in the conference will be workshops, explaining and doing many of the processes we've used to repurpose and recycle material for use in buildings.
During the workshop we will create modular parts made from re-cycled / re-claimed material. Modular parts that transform into a structural system, building components which assemble into a small building and structural fences.
The module of construction will be a 2' x 2' structual component that is designed to attach itself to other components making a modular assembly.
One of the constructions will be a small, 12 by 12 building, another will be a 20 foot in length structural fence.
Other constructions that could be built would be (Projections), such as decks, carports, balconies, patio covers, utility wall, bench, garbage bin etc.

Selwyn Birchwood
Saturday March 21,2020
doors 7pm /Show 730pm
$15 in Advance $20 at the door if available
no food truck tonight Sorry
With his fiery guitar and lap steel playing, his trailblazing, instantly memorable songs and gritty, unvarnished vocals, Selwyn Birchwood is among the most extraordinary young stars in the blues. His deep familiarity with blues tradition allows him to bust the genre wide open, adding new sounds, colors and textures, all delivered with a revival tent preacher's fervor and a natural storyteller's charisma. Since the 2014 release of his Alligator Records debut, Don't Call No Ambulance, Birchwood's meteoric rise from playing small Florida clubs to headlining international festival stages is nothing short of phenomenal, as he continues to set the contemporary blues world on fire. The album received the Blues Music Award and Living Blues Critics' Award for Best Debut Album Of 2014, and he won the 2015 Blues Blast Rising Star Award. Selwyn and his band have crisscrossed the U.S. and Europe repeatedly, delivering unforgettable live performances. With his new album, Pick Your Poison, Birchwood, along with his band—saxophonist Regi Oliver, bassist Huff Wright and drummer Courtney "Big Love" Girlie—takes a major step forward, crafting visionary blues for a new generation of forward-looking fans.
Birchwood, who attacks his guitar and lap steel with searing intensity, wrote and produced all 13 songs on Pick Your Poison. His richly detailed, hard-hitting originals run the emotional gamut from the humorously personal "My Whiskey Loves My Ex" to the gospel-inflected "Even The Saved Need Saving" to the hard truths of the topical "Corporate Drone" and "Police State" to the existential choice of the title track. The cutting-edge songs are made all the more impactful by Birchwood's gruff vocals, his untamed musicianship and his band's seemingly telepathic accompaniment. "I write and sing what I know," says Birchwood, whose innovations are as expansive as his influences. "This album has a broad reach. It's for young, old and everyone in between."

Food truck will be on location!!
I didn’t grow up singing or playing music. I’ve never had voice lessons, and it wasn’t until after college that I started teaching myself how to play guitar. So, if you’d told me then that I’d end up making a living as a singer-songwriter, I wouldn't have believed you. Even now, with the upcoming release of my fifth studio album, Morning Light, I can barely believe it.
I hadn’t seriously considered pursuing a career in music until May 9, 2007, when I walked off stage after opening for John Legend. One set, six songs in just thirty minutes, changed my life forever. Since then, I’ve been lucky enough to play with artists like Heart, Brandi Carlile, Gavin DeGraw, James Blunt, Grace Potter, Goo Goo Dolls, as well as tour Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, performing for our men and women in uniform stationed overseas.
Music has been one of the greatest blessings in my life. Without music, I may have never met the two greatest loves of my life, my wife, Mandy, and my daughter, Annabelle Rose Baker. So, I see my songs as a celebration of every right turn and wrong turn that has led me here, and not a day goes by that I don’t give thanks for that old wood box with six strings.
Along with my life in music, I’m also an Emmy Award winning writer and host of the national PBS travel series Tennessee Valley Uncharted, which showcases the beauty, culture, and adventure across the Southeast. Music has not only allowed me to see the world, but more importantly, it has shown me the beauty and importance of home. Now, after years of touring and seeing life pass by through a windshield, I’m getting the opportunity, as the host of Tennessee Valley Uncharted, to rediscover how great the Tennessee Valley is and why I’m so proud to call it my home. (Season 5 Premieres May 22nd!)

Multi-Instrumentalist and Singer-Songwriter Darrell Scott mines and cultivates the everyday moment, taking the rote, menial, mundane, and allowing it to be surreal, ever poignant, and candidly honest, lilting, blooming, and resonating. The words he fosters allow us to make sense of the world, what is at stake here, and our place in it. And ultimately, Darrell knows the sole truth of life is that love is all that matters, that we don’t always get it right, but that’s the instinctive and requisite circuitous allure of things, why we forever chase it, and why it is held sacred.

From there, things only ramped up with literature and poetry endeavors while a student at Tufts University, along with playing his way through life. This would never change.
After recently touring with Robert Plant and the Zac Brown Band (2 years with each), and producing albums for Malcolm Holcomb and Guy Clark and being named “songwriter of the year” for both ASCAP and NSAI, these days find him roaming his Tennessee wilderness acreage hiking along the small river, creating delicious meals with food raised on his property and playing music. He often leads songwriting workshops to help people tell their own truths with their stories, and is as busy as always writing, producing, performing, and just plain fully immersing himself in life..
Career Highlights:
Grammy Nomination for Best Country Song – “Long Time Gone” Dixie Chicks 2003

SCOTT MULVAHILL in Concert - GRAMMY NOMINATED
Sat March 14, 2020 Doors 7 PM/Show 7:30PM $20 advance/ $25 door if avail
As a teenager, Scott picked up the bass guitar on a whim. Natural talent and the lure of a challenge drove him to be the best musician he could and discover his love for singing, songwriting and the upright bass. With the encouragement of his teacher, he went on to study music in college.
Scott moved to Nashville after school, and he would meet American music icon Ricky Skaggs and join his Grammy winning band, Kentucky Thunder. He toured with Ricky for five years, and in that time, first started writing songs on his upright bass.
He has shared the stage with some of the greatest artists of modern music, such as: Alison Krauss, Barry Gibb of the BeeGees, Bruce Hornsby, Brad Paisley, Peter Frampton, Steven Curtis Chapman, Emmylou Harris, Dave Barnes, Ben Rector, and many more.
Scott’s songs have received honors or been featured in NPR’S Tiny Desk Contest, the International Songwriting Competition, John Lennon Songwriting Contest, and American Songwriter Magazine’s 30th Anniversary Contest, and he has had numerous cuts on other artists’ albums.
He’s currently touring in support of his September release, Top Of The Stairs(EP), which was produced by himself, Charlie Peacock (The Civil Wars, The Lone Bellow) Gary Paczosa (Alison Krauss, Sarah Jarosz), and Shani Ghandi (Sarah Jarosz).

Hi, I’m Dan. I’m a whiskey & beer drinking, fishing & hunting loving, motorcycle riding, quality food eating, hippie sympathizing, people loving, husband & father who lives in Minneapolis and shares a life with my amazing wife and two adorable sons named Oak and Alder. I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, MI, and moved to Minneapolis when I was 18 to study music, and I stayed because I’m one of those crazy people that enjoys the snow and cold weather.
Music is my trade & performing it for people is my passion. When I’m not in my studio writing songs and cutting records, or on the road playing shows, I’m usually tending to our backyard chickens, eating fresh veggies from my wife’s huge garden, making syrup from our city maples, or doing one of my many outdoor hobbies.
Now here are a few things about my music career that I should probably share in a music bio:
• In September 2014 Budweiser released their "Friends Are Waiting" commercial campaign featuring me singing my song When You Come Home and it premiered during the Super Bowl.
• In February, 2018, I released my newest album 25 Years and is the most prolific and widely distributed album to date, featuring songs that have been placed in major ads as well as widely played Spotify playlists.
• In October, 2018, Miller Lite featured my newest single “So Good” in one of their commercials that played for months during NFL games on ESPN & more.
• In March, 2019, my song “You Feel Like Home” was featured in Explore Minnesota Tourism’s newest ad campaign.
• Over the years I’ve had the honor of sharing the stage with some really cool artists & bands including The Civil Wars, Andy Grammer, Eric Hutchinson, Matt Nathanson, NeedtoBreathe, Augustana, Tyrone Wells, Haley Reinhart, John McLaughlin, Will Hoge, Drew Holcomb, Sister Hazel, and more.

Have Gun, Will Travel in Concert
with
Opening act Will Quinlan
Friday February 21, 2020
Door 7pm /Show 730pm $10 in Advance
Florida’s Have Gun, Will Travel return with their first new album in four years. Strange Chemistry is the sound of a band with a renewed sense of purpose and direction. Following in the footsteps of fellow Florida rockers Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, while simultaneously paying tribute to their early indie-rock influences, HGWT set out to make the quintessential American rock album. Singer-guitarist Matt Burke and fellow bandmates; brother and bassist Daniel Burke, guitarist Scott Anderson, drummer JP Beaubien, and keyboardist Edward Stork; along with help on several songs from good friend Garrett Klahn (Texas Is The Reason), deliver their most personal and emotionally resonant album to date.
Much like the characters in the 1986 film Stand By Me; the original inspiration for the Have Gun, Will Travel moniker; the members of this Florida indie rock outfit are on a life-defining journey. A journey filled with ups and downs; victories and defeats; moments of despair and redemption. Following the release of Science from an Easy Chair, HGWT’s epic concept album about a British explorer’s ill-fated Antarctic expedition, they encountered troubled waters of their own. Singer-songwriter-guitarist Matt Burke found himself in the hospital, questioning whether or not he would be able to continue with the band. Burke’s life-long struggle with anxiety disorder had come to a head and put him in the emergency room three times within a twelve-month period.
After a full US tour in support of Science…, the band members took some time off to deal with personal matters, then collectively made the decision to carry on. Feeling creatively exhausted from the last album, they took a full year off from creating any new music. When the inspiration returned, however, the pendulum had swung in the opposite direction. Instead of narrative stories about historical figures and events, Burke began writing personal, introspective songs. Songs dealing with anxiety, doubt and indecision. Songs about internal conflict and the duality of man. Songs about fear, frustration, perseverance and victory over adversity. Strange Chemistry is the product of HGWT’s determination and commitment to each other and to the music.
Will Quinlan is opening act for Have Gun, Will Travel
BIO:
Texas native son (San Antonio) and Tampa area resident singer/songwriter Will Quinlan has been plying his unique blend of Folk/Americana throughout the southeast for many years now, generating a deep reserve of respect and admiration amongst fans, peers and promoters alike.
Combining a slightly rough hewn yet genuinely moving sonic aesthetic and delivery with deeply personal and emotionally evocative lyrics, Will has earnestly traversed a long artistic road since first hearing the undeniable call in the sounds of the late 60's/early 70's Folk/Rock scene specifically characterized by the profound impact Jackson Browne, Gram Parsons, Townes Van Zandt and Neil Young had on his nascent teenage attempts at writing.
"Will is currently working on several projects both solo and with his bands.The Holy Slow Train and The Vesper Bell, with a steady stream of single releases slated for the coming spring with full LP's to follow later in the year."
PRESS:
"...one of the best alt-country/folk/americana acts we've seen in a long while. Quinlan's gallop is characterized by lovingly gruff detail and elegant restraint...a well-bred affair that echoes almost every great artist that defines the genre." - Orlando Weekly
"Will Quinlan is living proof there is still life left in the alt-country universe...Quinlan balances grit and grace with passion and poetry resulting in a tension that makes the songs live and breathe." - MetroMix
"WIll Quinlan turns raw emotion into folk/rock poetry on "Navasota", an album with songs that are easily on par with the best of the Americana genre. Moving deftly from gritty and sorrowful, to angry and ultimately triumphant, Quinlan's earnest labors provide proof that real life always sounds better with loud guitars." - WIll Quinlan and The Diviners "Navasota" album review, Curtis Ross in Tampa Bay Times.
"Blessed with a voice the near twin of Farrar's, Quinlan, subtle and moving,
devastatingly delivers four chords and the truth." - Americana/UK

You know the band, you know the songs and we all know it’ll be party time when NRBQ appears on our stage -
hot on the heels of the just-released Happy Talk EP.
You might think that after 50 years, a band would want to settle down and just relax.
If you do, you don’t know the Q!
“NRBQ remains impressively vibrant and cheerfully committed,
and indeed embody the idea that rock 'n' roll can be a fountain of youth.” —New London Day
In 2016, NRBQ’s 5-disc, 50-year retrospective High Noon landed on Top Picks lists in Rolling Stone, the New York Times, Goldmine, and more.
Fifty years of celebrating is worth celebrating! Come celebrate with us.
NRBQ is Terry Adams, Scott Ligon, Casey McDonough, and John Perrin.
“NRBQ” stands for New Rhythm and Blues Quartet. The band’s music, a rollicking blend of everything from stomping rockabilly to Beatles-influenced pop to Thelonious Monk-inspired jazz.

The Southern Gothic in Concert
(Connor Christian, Spirko and Shawn Thacker)
Sat - Jan 11, 2020
Doors 7pm/Show 730pm
$15 in Adv/$20 at the Door
Since 2007, The Southern Gothic original members Connor (lead vox/ guitar/ piano), Spirko (fiddle/ guitar/ piano/ vocals) and Shawn Thacker (drums) have been bringing their unique brand of sun-baked, road-worn country, southern rock & soul to countless stages and fans across the US. Currently based in Nashville, TN, ’SoGo’ has shared stages with such artists as Tim McGraw, Willie Nelson, Big & Rich, Zac Brown Band, Styx, Uncle Kracker, Corey Smith, Gloriana, ZZ Top, Heart and more. The diverse nature of the artists with whom they’ve toured reflects the diversity of the band’s sound. “It works,” says Connor in regard to the varying nature of the audiences. “We’ve played to country crowds, rock crowds, young crowds, old crowds. We’ve played to jam band audiences and we’ve played bluegrass festivals. The response with all of them has been fantastic.”
Fantastic enough for Billboard Magazine to notice. TSG was named “Artist on the Verge” in Billboard’s Best Bets after debuting #1 on its Heat Seekers List. 2013 saw the band’s hit single “Sheets Down” stay on the fan-voted CMT Pure Countdown for 4 weeks, resulting in 60k views on YouTube. The band used this momentum to play hundreds of shows over thousands of miles in the next few years, perfecting their high-energy live show and growing their loyal fan base.
Locked and loaded for 2020, The Southern Gothic will hit the ground running with a highly anticipated new EP, 'Burning Moonlight', a revamped live show, and Winter tour coming to a stage near you!
