Honkytonks, roadhouses, empty whiskey glasses, unrequited love are the brick and mortar of country music and there isn't a better mason than Bill Hearne...

Bill Hearne calls it 'The Road:' that metaphorical ribbon of honky-tonks, roadhouses, empty whiskey glasses, prison cells and unrequited love line with signposts and mile markers tattooed with names like Haggard, as in Merle, Williams, as in Hank, Owens, as in Buck and Lovett, as in Lyle.

Sista Petalaine & da Bare Bones

Michèle Leidig's sultry smokey sings style turns the pitfalls of everyday life into funky-booty shakin'- bluesy music that makes a person feel betta to da bone. Marrying her sometimes humorous, sometimes serious lyrical poems with the musicianship of David Waldrop, Greg B.... and great musicians the likes of Freddy Lopez, Anthony Leon and Johny Broomdust lining up to jump on stage with da Sista - they can cry the blues one minute and break out the funk the next and rock you out of your seats up onto the dance floor.

Singer, songwriter and harmonica man John Carey is a long-time veteran of funky rhythm and blues, from the Eleventh Hour Band to the John Carey Band of New Orleans. John Carey and his band are well known throughout the southern club circuit for their unique sound which brings New Orleans funk and R&B together with the sounds of Memphis Soul and Chicago Blues.

Joey Shaheen is a touring singer/songwriter from Minneapolis escaping the brutal cold via his: "Sled-Dog-Slushy" tour. His band: The Wrong Omar have played throughout Minnesota, Wisconsin and Illinois. His writing style ranges from folk rock to indie quirk with some easy listening blue-grass-a-billy thrown in as well. The songs are all melodic and hook oriented with strong intelligent lyrics. The Wrong Omar has a strong radio presence in their base. Joey is touring solo, opening the show on the piano with some smooth easy listening pop, then on to guitar with rack harp for some folk rock with jazz harp. Then he engages a looping device where he creates a full band mix in real-time using bass guitar, keyboards and percussion. He closes the show with some foot-stomping music. The review from the Twin Cities Daily Planet is a good summary of what you will come away with: "...They're three pieces—two acoustic guitars, percussion. One fellow is fiddling with sweet-sounding major-seven chords while the engineer fiddles with microphones and wires. At length, The Wrong Omar open with a tune that utilizes the chord progression that guy was playing. It's beautiful with a strong, pointed chorus that compels with engaging urgency....when it hits, it's dead-on, brilliantly inspired....Excellent songwriting. Warm, wry melodies over bright, moody chords...."

This course is a combination of color theory and practical work in the dye studio. It is mainly aimed at tapestry weavers but is open to anybody interested in color and design. Hand-dyed yarns are an essential part of creating unique works of textile art. This workshop teaches the use of Lanaset/Sebraset dyes for wool and silk and explores color theory right in the dye pot. “What happens if I add some red to this blue? How can I create a smooth color gradation? What are the dyer's color wheels?” Students will become familiar with the color characteristics hue, chroma and value, explore basic color relationships and learn how to create their desired colors in the dye studio. Students will receive samples and formulas of all colors dyed in this workshop and may work out their own dye formulas for an individual project.  In addition to experimenting with color, the class will teach the development of dye formulas and stress the importance of record keeping for easy reproduction of colors. When taken in combination with Color and Design for Tapestry Weavers in March, both classes together offer students the entire artistic process - from design to dye studio to loom. Cornelia Theimer Gardella weaves abstract tapestries using her own hand-dyed wool. Born, raised and educated in Germany, Cornelia came to New Mexico in 2005 to study traditional Fiber Arts at NNMC under Karen Martinez and contemporary tapestry with James Koehler. Together with James Koehler and Rebecca Mezoff, she was part of the international tapestry exhibition Interwoven Traditions: New Mexico and Bauhaus which was shown in Albuquerque and Erfurt, Germany in 2010. She teaches at Ghost Ranch and EVFAC. Be inspired at www.corneliatheimer.com.

Collected Works Bookstore presents Santa Fe local Sally Denton for a reading and discussion of her latest book, The Plots Against the President: FDR, A Nation in Crisis, and the Rise of the American Right.  In The Plots Against the President, investigative journalist Sally Denton regales readers with the true story of the forces that lashed out against Franklin Delano Roosevelt as he ascended to the Presidency.  Though he was elected by a landslide in 1932, FDR's bold New Deal experiments provoked a backlash from both extremes of the political spectrum.  The extent to which FDR's opponents were willing to thwart him has never been fully explored.  Two startling events frame Denton's Plots Against the President: anarchist Giuseppe Zangara's attempt on FDR's life, and a plutocratic plot to overthro the government that would come to be known as the Wall Street Putsch.

Sally Denton is an award-winning author and investigative journalist local to Santa Fe.  Her books include The Pink Lady, Passion and Principle, Faith and Betrayal, American Massacre, The Bluegrass Conspiracy, and The Money and the Power (with Roger Morris).  She is a Guggenheim fellow and a public policy scholar at the Woodrow Wilson Center.

Classic Swinging Jazz Piano Trio
featuring Dan Borton on Alto Sax.

‘500 Words or Less' will highlight use of space with photographs and video art leading into the studio, a museum-like display of older communication devices, and dancing already in progress when the audience arrives. The focus of the Project continually changes location in the performance space throughout the evening, adding to the layered effect of its acts. “It's fun! The format allows us vignettes with a wrapper to tie them all together,” Artistic Director Curtis Uhlemann said. “We can't wait to keep designing more sound medleys and brainstorming. I love this!” Evoking the ‘disjointed coherence' of dream, memory, and consciousness, the atmosphere is further enhanced by writing on the floor, a stack of old televisions above, trees extending perpendicular to the wall, an umbrella chandelier, and a grand piano. “It's not purely narrative,” Gionfriddo said of the evening. “It's an experience tied together by dancers, music, and characters; it requires mental participation from the viewers.”
