SUMMARY:The Steel Wheels
DESCRIPTION:DSP Shows Presents: The Steel Wheels\nSaturday\, May 2 @ 8 pm\nTickets: On Sale Friday\, January 16 \nNote: The Hangar Theatre Box Office does not handle ticketing for DSP Shows. If you have questions or need assistance with ticketing\, please contact them directly: info@dspshows.com or 607-280-2900. \n20 years is a long time to spend doing anything at all. It’s an age for any group of people to sustain a collective effort. For a band on the road\, 20 years can be more than a lifetime. Yet\, after 2 decades of making music together in living rooms\, listening rooms\, clubs\, theaters\, and festival stages\, The Steel Wheels are still growing\, still pushing\, still at it\, and they’re marking the occasion with the release of their 9th studio album\, “The Steel Wheels”. \nFollowing the release of “Sideways” in 2024\, their 3rd record with producer Sam Kassirer at his Great North Sound Society studio in interior Maine\, the band felt it was time for a change of scene. As the group began to select songs for a new album\, they also had to find an answer to the question of where they would get down to the work of record-making. They didn’t know that answer was going to knock on their back door. \nAt the band’s 2024 Red Wing Roots festival\, held each summer near the group’s home base of Harrisonburg\, VA\, banjo player and songwriter Trent Wagler spied producer and engineer D. James Goodwin (Goose\, Bonny Light Horseman\, I’m With Her) in the crowd and later reached out to learn what he was doing so far from his home turf of New York. It happened that Goodwin\, who mixed the band’s 2019 album “Over The Trees”\, had just pulled up stakes for the Shenandoah Valley and was setting up a new studio on the band’s doorstep. Several months and one video call later\, Wagler\, fiddler Eric Brubaker\, multi-instrumentalist Jay Lapp\, drummer/percussionist Kevin Garcia\, and bass\nplayer Jeremy Darrow gathered in the new space\, The Isokon\, snug against the snowy Virginia winter\, to begin recording their next album. \nThe process that Goodwin cultivated was fluid and swift. Demo listening in the morning flowed into tracking the whole band live in one room. The session was punctuated by peals of laughter and occasional tears as the group kept themselves in the moment\, leaning in to every emotion and embracing that vulnerability. As they worked\, the music took shape in the moment\, right in front of the microphones\, each participant listening and responding as the songs flickered to life. By dinner time the songs of the day were complete and talk moved to the next day’s work. \nThe album that resulted from this process captures the multifaceted band in full-flight\, pivoting effortlessly between the folk rock band they’ve grown into over 20 years\, and the harmony-centric acoustic ensemble that they’ve been since the beginning.The band puts their impressive range on display throughout “The Steel Wheels”; energy\, insight\, and humor\, balance with tender\, highly personal moments of masterful restraint and expression as the album unfolds. As ever\, the band challenges themselves to find new ways through the music\, using space and\, at moments\, reinventing their approach to the string band format. \nAs usual\, Wagler’s keen lyrics provide insight by posing big questions. At first blush “Easy” sounds like the song of the summer\, but a deeper listen asks the audience to consider whether it’s worth the cost to have the world waiting for us on the other side of our screens. “Everything is easy”\, but is it really? \nBeyond our glowing devices “Go Back” studies the complexity of our relationships and the time we spend with those close to us. It’s easy to say that we must take the bad with the good\, it’s a challenge to seek to understand how our joy and sadness are entwined; that they are not opposing feelings\, but sibling emotions. \n“Keep On Dancing” offers the listener a greater challenge; to take a step back from distraction and our self-imposed tasks\, to look beyond the static of the day\, and to see the beauty all around us. The song gently implores us to take a breath and be still so that we can glimpse the things that are actually important. \nThe Steel Wheels have kept their stride for longer than most bands survive. After 20 years hard at work “The Steel Wheels” is an album of creative maturity with a restless sense of adventure. Here’s to 20 more.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Driftwood
DESCRIPTION:An Evening with Driftwood\nFriday\, April 24 @ 7:30 pm\nTickets: $25 in advance / $30 at the door \nMusic has guided Driftwood to hallowed ground many times since its founding members\, Joe Kollar and Dan Forsyth\, started making music as high schoolers in Joe’s parents’ basement. Whether the Upstate New York folk rock group—which today also includes violinist Claire Byrne\, bassist Joey Arcuri\, and drummer Sam Fishman—are converting new fans on a hardscrabble tour across the country or playing to a devoted crowd at hero Levon Helm’s Woodstock barn\, the band’s shapeshifting approach to folk music continues to break new ground. And yet in many ways Driftwood’s latest work\, the transformative December Last Call\, finds the group coming home.  \nRecorded in that very same basement where the Driftwood dream began\, December Last Call lyrically reflects on the recent past\, musing on the ways the group grew up\, together and apart\, through curveballs like new parenthood or pandemic shutdowns. But sonically\, the band’s sixth album looks confidently to the future\, experimenting with new sounds while staying true to the bluegrass roots that built them. Across the album’s nine tracks\, the band often leans into hard-rocking electric guitars and driving percussion: On “Every Which Way But Loose\,” we get a foot-tapping beat and a sweeping chorus\, and on “Up All Night Blues\,” the band shines with an ambling\, sing-along-able reflection on the challenges of new motherhood. But other tracks\, like standout closer “Stardust\,” take a simpler route\, allowing bare-bones vocals and acoustic instrumentals to underpin a deeper emotional message. \nOne of Driftwood’s biggest differentiators—and perhaps its biggest strength—is the sheer breadth of talent in its lineup\, with Claire\, Joe\, and Dan all contributing as songwriters and vocalists. This creative push-pull\, where each selects songs to share with the group and record together\, bakes vulnerability and collaborative spirit into every recording. “It’s at the heart of what we do\,” says Dan. “Everybody has a strong love for songs\, for songwriting\, and we each appreciate everybody else and the way that they contribute to that.”  \nWhile 2019’s acclaimed Tree of Shade tapped Simon Felice as producer\, the band opted to self-produce this latest effort\, leaning into their creative impulses and striving to capture their distinctive live energy. Figuring out how to channel that on-stage intensity into a recording has actually\, in many ways\, been a lesson in restraint. “When I look back at the things we were writing and playing\, oh\, I don’t know\, 10\, 12 years ago\, they were really arranged: a lot of you do this here\, we’re going to do this there\, we’re going to break down\, we’re going to do a big build\,” Claire explains. “These days\, it’s more like\, ‘Let’s play the song and just see what happens.’” \nThis approach makes all the more sense when you consider Driftwood’s live shows\, which operate not only as effervescent\, twang-studded musical parties\, but also as reunions for their throng of devoted listeners—folks who have started to feel less like fans and more like something bigger. “They’re supporters. They’re friends\,” explains Joe. “It’s crazy how much love we’ve got and how many wild situations on the road we’ve gotten out of because of those people.” Many of them are quite literally invested in the band’s future: December Last Call was a crowd-funded effort\, and it wasn’t the band’s first. It’s as if every listener\, ticketbuyer\, album backer\, and general band evangelist is in on Driftwood’s biggest secret: this whole band thing has endured for nearly two decades because it offers a kind of community you can’t get just anywhere. \n“Driftwood is basically a beautiful friendship that happens to play music together\,” says Joe. “I know it’s rare. I know I’m lucky to know these people and lean on them and go through these massive life changes together.” For Driftwood\, each song is like a journal entry: cathartic to create\, yes\, but capable of unlocking new lessons—and when shared—forging new bonds. “We’re communal\, right? Humans need to be connected\,” Joe says. “And we get to have this special thing.”

It’s just so fun.\nIlan: Anybody I teach improv to already knows my favorite thing about improv is the love. When I improvise\, I’m always looking for new ways to love what my scene partner is doing\, as myself or as my character. The best thing about performing with Gavin is I already love him! We’re pretty in sync already as regular people. We know each other’s references\, we can tell what the other person is going for in regular conversation. Having the chance to move that chemistry onstage is pretty special.\n \nWhat should audiences expect from the show?\nGavin: Oh I have no idea. Maybe we’ll be sci-fi space guys? Or bugs or something? The only thing I know for sure is you’re going to have a blast and so will we.\nIlan: Expect to laugh. If you’ve seen improv before\, you haven’t seen it like this. We’ll take a single suggestion from the audience and turn it into an hour-long show. There might be new worlds\, lots of characters\, romance\, drama. Or the whole story might be two guys just waiting for the bus. Either way\, I guarantee you will laugh. Laugh at us\, laugh with us\, it doesn’t matter! \nWill you be offering more improv classes in Ithaca?\nIlan: As long as the Hangar partners with me on these classes\, I’ll keep offering them! We have an amazing crop of students right now in our 101 and 201 classes\, with class shows of their own coming soon. If you are interested in classes\, reach out to the Hangar or to me at ilanjkaplan@gmail.com \n  \n  \n \n

SUMMARY:Close to You
DESCRIPTION:Hangar Theatre’s In Flight Entertainment series presents \nLisa Rock in \nClose to You: The Music of the Carpenters\nSaturday\, March 7 @ 7:30 pm\nTickets: $35 \nConsidered one of the best vocalists of all time\, Karen Carpenter captured the attention of a generation with her unabashedly catchy pop music. The Carpenters’ beautiful\, memorable love songs topped the Billboard charts with more than a dozen number one hits. Now singer Lisa Rock and her 6-piece band are bringing the music of The Carpenters back to the stage with their spot-on renditions of Carpenters classics with Close to You: The Music of The Carpenters. \nLisa Rock\, a singer as well as a playwright\, has been performing to sold-out crowds for years. She’s written more than 30 original concerts and cabarets that have been seen across the country. Now\, Rock has arranged a 6-piece band\, complete with back-up singers\, and together they are dedicated to creating a Carpenters experience like no other. Rock’s amazing four octave range allows her to sing the hits like “We’ve Only Just Begun” and “Rainy Days and Mondays” in their original key\, keeping the songs genuine and more recognizable for the audience. “When she hits the lower range of her marvelous voice\,” notes critic Alan Bresloff\, “if you close your eyes\, you can see Karen Carpenter’s face.” \nBut Rock goes beyond the music in her concert. She draws the crowd in with anecdotes about Karen Carpenter\, her life and how some of the songs originated. Rock engages the audience to the point where they can’t help but sing along with her and share the memories of The Carpenters and their music. \n“An amazing night of music\,” Jim Jarvis\, Metropolis Executive Director said. “The sold-out crowd was singing along to nearly every song and gave Lisa and the band an immediate standing ovation. I must have had at least 40 patrons thank me for booking this show and asking when Lisa would be back. This is truly a rare gem of a show.”

SUMMARY:DSP Shows: Jonatha Brooke
DESCRIPTION:DSP Shows: An Evening with Jonatha Brooke\nSaturday\, February 28 @ 8 pm\nTickets: $35–45\, on sale Friday\, December 19 \nJonatha Brooke is what happens when literate songwriting meets fearless innovation\, a\nsingular voice in modern music whose work is as much chamber poetry as it is folk-pop.\nTrained in the rigor of classical composition yet born with a Broadway-bound belt and a\nnovelist’s eye for character\, she weaves deeply personal narratives with a rare melodic\nsophistication. From her early days with The Story to her solo triumphs\, Brooke has\nquietly carved a niche where the emotional intelligence of Joni Mitchell meets the\nmusical wit of Stephen Sondheim\, all wrapped in a voice that aches\, sparkles\, and\nsoars\, often within the same phrase. \nA true interdisciplinary artist\, Brooke has not only penned a poignant\, one-woman\nmusical (“My Mother Has 4 Noses”)\, but she has also collaborated with luminaries like\nKaty Perry\, Joe Sample\, and the late Woody Guthrie\, whose unpublished lyrics she set\nto music with the reverence of a curator and the daring of a jazz improviser. Whether\ncommanding a stage with nothing but a guitar and a spotlight or orchestrating a lush\nstudio album\, Jonatha Brooke is never simply performing; she is sculpting emotion in\nmidair\, conjuring stories that linger like the final notes of a well-loved sonata. \n  \nNote: The Hangar Theatre Box Office does not handle ticketing for DSP Shows. If you have questions or need assistance with ticketing\, please contact them directly: info@dspshows.com or 607-280-2900.

SUMMARY:DSP Shows: Jade Bird
DESCRIPTION:DSP Shows: Jade Bird – Who Wants to Talk About Love?\n  \nFriday\, September 19 @ 8 pm\n  \nTickets: $25 in advance / $30 day of show \nHeadliner: Jade Bird \nSupport: Jake WIld \n  \nJade Bird  \nAre we doomed to repeat our parents’ mistakes? It’s a question that hangs over Jade Bird’s third album\, a record that interrogates the way relationship patterns repeat through the generations and\, above all\, the great cosmic question mark that is ‘love’. From its title\, which sincerely asks Who Wants To Talk About Love?\, onwards\, it’s a record that invites us to join her quest to understand this powerful\, addictive\, beautiful\, destructive force that drives us all. “I want it to be a conversation\,” she says. “I want it to be a real back and forth.”   \nAfter 2023’s EP Burn The Hard Drive\, which plunged us into Jade’s anger and existential confusion in the wake of a life-altering break-up\, Who Wants To Talk About Love? zooms a little further out. “I wrote it over a long period while trying to make sense of the broken relationships in my family and the way they echoed into my own life when my engagement ended\,” she says. She brings us into some of the most personal\, psyche-forming bonds in her life: “It’s as much a question as an answer\, wondering if I could break the cycle while finding my own path to forgiveness.”   \nThe title Who Wants To Talk About Love is taken from the first single\, a song Jade started writing when she was 16\, which finds beauty in the pain of realising you’ve lost yourself in a relationship. But really\, it has been generations in the making. Its ghostly aura echoes the ghost that she saw the women in her family become when they lost themselves in toxic situations and partners who took up so much space there was none left for them.   \nJade’s mum had her when she was 19\, and when Jade was around 7 years old her parents divorced. She and her mum moved from Germany to the UK to live with her grandmother\, also freshly divorced from a troubled relationship: the three generations of women in pain in one house. The relationship between Jade’s parents had broken down amid a lot of conflict and this move was all about a fresh start. “They sheltered me from a lot of stuff\, but\, you know\, I could tell my mum was hurting big time\,” she recalls.   \nAround the same time\, Jade started writing songs. From day one\, her artistic expression was steeped in the fallout of romantic love. Sitting at the piano\, she was – not necessarily intentionally – condensing the feelings hanging in the air at home into songs. “It didn’t feel like a jigsaw clicking into place\,” she says\, because life is rarely as neat as a movie montage. “But from then on I was always writing.”   \nFast forward a few years. “I picked up grandma’s guitar – and then it all really started coming out\,” she laughs. Teenage angst brought with it all the drama of adolescence\, but at the same time as Jade was learning the guitar and figuring her own self-hood out\, her mum had entered another difficult relationship. “It all sort of accumulated in my artistic sense. When I listen to my early catalog\, there’s a lot of anger. A lot of rage. My parents’ relationship was super conflict heavy – yelling was very normal; it’s a little bit Italian\, but then it’s also really fucking stressful! I’ve followed that into my relationships; there was arguing\, but there’d also be a lot of nasty arguing.” Because whether you know it or not at the time\, “you’re following what you saw.” \nIn 2022\, she realised how much those early models of relationships had shaped her when her engagement to a longtime member of her band disintegrated. They had recorded\, toured and eventually moved to Austin together; everything about her life and her career had been wrapped up in this increasingly unhealthy relationship\, coloured by vicious arguments and unhealthy behaviours. As it fell apart\, Jade felt further from herself than she had ever been.   \n‘Dreams’ is an upbeat bop that was written mid-breakdown. It sounds like a shard of light but is actually “a very dark song”\, Jade says. “It’s a captured moment at a really tough time.” She was driving through LA on her way to the studio\, to one of her biggest sessions of her life (with Greg Kurstin). She was still engaged but starting to realise it was destroying her\, emotionally and physically exhausted after a bad night’s sleep\, and she saw a billboard that read\, This is what dreams are made of. “That\, with the LA sun\, it just felt so deeply ironic… I was so completely broken\, just like at the lowest point of my entire life. We wrote that song and cut the vocal; the production has changed quite a lot but the vocal stem was so important because I was like\, you can’t really get rawer than that.” Amid the sunny production and upbeat piano riff\, you can hear the wobble in her voice on the verses\, the fight going out of her on the big chorus and the bite of self loathing in the lyrics.   \nOn ‘Stick Around’\, she dissects the way she\, like her mother before her\, lost herself in that relationship: “It was a way to process a lot of the stuff I was feeling after that break up\,” she says\, “I can’t shake this idea that we’re repeating fates.” Over strained guitar that grows increasingly fractious as the song wears on\, she sings\, “If you really loved me why was it so hard to stick around?” It was one of those songs that came out almost fully formed – “Sometimes it feels like you were tugging on a little string out the sky\, and then it’s like\, woah\,” she says. “It was like being under a fog; the start of being like\, okay\, I’m pretty low.”   \n‘Stick Around’ hints too at Jade’s dad\, but nothing comes close to the searing\, devastating emotion of ‘Wish You Well’\, a song she’s spoken about before on social media and at live shows in which she tries to forgive her dad\, tries to move on – almost manifesting the feelings that she doesn’t yet feel. “I’ve always been really upfront about the fact that this is not a song about a romantic relationship\,” she says. “I haven’t spoken to my dad in… about four years now – over a sort of disagreement at what being a father is.” It’s the sort of thing many people would shy away from talking about publicly\, but sharing songs like ‘Wish You Well’ is at the core of why Jade even writes songs and puts them out into the world. For her to process her feelings\, but for us too: “There’s not been one gig that someone hasn’t come up to me and been like\, I fell out with my mum\, I don’t speak to this person any more\, I’ve lost this person…  That connection\, giving a person the opportunity to say ‘that’s how I feel’ – that’s the whole point in releasing music\, especially at a time like this.”   \nHard Drive was a musical detour\, dipping a toe into a pool of synths under the guiding hand of Mura Masa; Who Wants To Talk About Love? sees Jade returning to her roots in acoustic guitar and modern Americana with her soaring voice always reaching for the light. The glimmer of light here is her current partner\, Andrew xxxx\, with whom she made the bulk of the album (talk about a bonding experience). ‘Save All Your Tears’ is a tried and true love song\, a glistening layer of gold dust left in the pan after the sand and dirt has been washed away.   \nOnce she started seeing patterns and shapes in the relationships in her own life\, suddenly she was seeing them everywhere – including reality TV. The final piece of the puzzle that is Who Wants To Talk About Love? was ‘How To Be Happy’. “I got really into this really filthy reality TV show where all these divorced couples go into a house and start dating each other. And being the drama queen that I was\, I was like ‘Oh my God\, these people loved each other once – these people would lie next to each other and be like\, you’re the one…’ how do you get here from there?” It tapped into a real and lasting fear: of love that doesn’t last and people who don’t stay. It was the final song she wrote for the record\, and a reminder to herself that she doesn’t have all the answers quite yet.   \nIt’s fitting that Jade started writing the title song and first single when she was 16. Because as she extricated herself from the bad relationship\, examined her family’s patterns and found new love and hope\, she was looking to someone very specific for guidance\, sometimes without really knowing it: her younger self.   \n“I know this sounds a little bit silly\, but I genuinely think – and again this sounds so corny – but I became the through line: I started to use my debut [2019’s self-titled Jade Bird] as a real guide. Because even though I was 19\, I was so sure of myself. I had a compass; even if I wasn’t sure about something\, I knew deep down\, ‘Oh this is what Jade thinks.’” Sometimes we inherit troubling patterns from our families; but sometimes we inherit the really good stuff too: “I got that from my mum. Little Jade – she was unstoppable against the world!” There are odes and tributes to Jade Bird scattered across the record. “I remember that being the last time I felt invincible\, in a way. Confident. And I was like\, I want some of that. So I’m gonna return to that as a woman\, you know\, instead of a girl.”   \nNow living in LA\, Jade is happy with her partner and her dog and her work. It’s happy but it’s not an ending: she still wants to talk about love with you and anyone who’s open to it. “I don’t feel like I want to talk about love because I know everything\,” she pauses\, throws her hands up and grins. “I know absolutely nothing!” No one can listen to Jade’s music and believe that to be true: but there’s always more to say and think and feel and learn. And for Jade Bird\, it starts with a simple question: who wants to talk about love?

SUMMARY:DSP Shows: An Evening with Cowboy Junkies - Celebrating 40 Years
DESCRIPTION:DSP SHows: An Evening with Cowboy Junkies: Celebrating 40 Years\nWednesday\, September 17\, 2025 @ 7:30 pm\n  \nTickets: \nOn sale Friday\, 5/16\nTier 1: $75\nTier 2: $59.50 \nDoors open at 6:30 pm \nWATCH: Cowboy Junkies – Live on Tour \nCowboy Junkies \nSometimes revolutions begin quietly. \nIn 1988\, Cowboy Junkies proved that there was an audience waiting for something quiet\, beautiful and reflective. The Trinity Session was like a whisper that cut through the noise — and it was compelling. It stood out amid the flash and bombast that defined the late 80’s. The now classic recording combined folk\, blues\, and rock in a way that had never been heard before and went on to sell more than a million copies. Their ability to communicate volumes before the lyrics kick in defines an enduring career. Where most bands chase trends\, the Junkies have stayed their course\, maintaining a low-impact excavation of melody and evocative language delivered sotto voce in singer Margo Timmins’ feathery alto. \nFormed in Toronto in 1985\, Margo was joined by siblings Michael Timmins on guitar\, Peter Timmins on drums\, and Michael’s lifelong friend Alan Anton on bass to begin a journey that has evolved over 29 albums. “I’ve known Alan longer than I’ve known Pete\,” says Michael. “We were friends before Pete was born.” \nUnlike most long-lasting groups\, Cowboy Junkies have never had a breakup or taken a sanity-saving hiatus. There’s an appreciation of each other that keeps them constantly working. “It’s that intimacy and understanding of what each one of us brings to the table\,” says Michael. Michael\, the oldest\, is the chief architect; songwriter\, and guitarist\, who works with Margo on sculpting the emotional planes and vocal performances before bringing in younger brother Peter on drums and lifelong friend Alan Anton on bass to create the soundscapes that have made Cowboy Junkies a band who defies categories. \n“The expectations and responsibilities of our roles are a big part of the band’s ethos. We’re still amazed that we’re doing things our way and continuing to grow the band\, but the longer we are at it\, the more fun it’s become. We don’t take it for granted\,” Michael offers.  “We do what we do\,” Margo agrees\, “and it feels right for all of us. After 30-plus years of playing together\, the band and its music are more important to us than ever. The music we make brings each us a great sense of contentment\, a knowledge of place\, and a sense of doing what we were meant to do.” \nAn evening with Cowboy Junkies promises a career-spanning show\, including songs from their recent album\, ‘Such Ferocious Beauty’\, which was released worldwide in 2023\, to universal critical acclaim.
