SUMMARY:Hupstate Circus Festival: PLAY DEAD
DESCRIPTION:by People Watching Collective \nFriday\, August 30 at 7 pm\nSaturday\, August 31 at 2 pm \nSet in a shifting universe of domestic trappings and interlocking stories\, People Watching’s first creation ‘Play Dead’ observes the way we navigate social connections. Through it’s surrealistic blend of acrobatics\, movement and physical theater\, the piece moves with larger than life physicality while bathing in an intimate atmosphere. By giving place for seemingly unexceptional stories to unfold\, we look closer and marvel at how beautiful\, twisted\, and sometimes laughable reality can be. Balanced on the cusp of the familiar and the otherworldly\, this performance is a reflection on the twilight of youth and all the uncertainties\, flawed ideals and sheer exhilaration that such an age encompasses. But rather than settling into bored fatalism\, this piece celebrates life\, the same way people desperately dance to the last song before the party ends. \n  \nRecommended for ages 16+ \n

SUMMARY:DSP Shows: Iris DeMent
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, September 27\, 2024\nShow at 8 p.m.\, Doors open at 7 p.m.\n\nOn-Sale: Friday\, June 14th \n$45 in advance / $50 at the door \nHeadliner: Iris DeMent\n \nSupport: Ana Egge \n  \nIris DeMent \nOn her transcendent new record\, Workin’ On A World\, Iris DeMent faces the modern world — as it is right now — with its climate catastrophe\, pandemic illness\, and epidemic of violence and social injustice — and not only asks us how we can keep working towards a better world\, but implores us to love each other\, despite our very different ways of seeing. Her songs are her way of healing our broken inner and outer spaces. \nWith an inimitable voice as John Prine described\, “like you’ve heard\, but not really\,” and unforgettable melodies rooted in hymns\, gospel\, and old country music\, she’s simply one of the finest singer-songwriters in America as well as one of our fiercest advocates for human rights. Her debut record Infamous Angel\, which just celebrated its 30th anniversary\, was recently named one of the “greatest country albums of all time” by Rolling Stone\, and the two albums that followed\, My Life and The Way I Should\, were both nominated for GRAMMYs. From there\, DeMent released three records on her own label\, Flariella Records\, the most recent of which\, The Trackless Woods (2015)\, was hailed as “a quietly powerful triumph” by The Guardian. DeMent’s songs have also been featured in film (True Grit) and television (The Leftovers) and recorded by numerous artists. Fittingly\, she received the Americana Music Trailblazer Award in 2017. \nWorkin’ On A World\, her seventh album\, started with the worry that woke DeMent up after the 2016 elections: how can we survive this? “Every day some new trauma was being added to the old ones that kept repeating themselves\, and like everybody else\, I was just trying to bear up under it all\,” she recalls. She returned to a truth she had known since childhood: music is medicine. “My mom always had a way of finding the song that would prove equal to whatever situation we were facing. Throughout my life\, songs have been lending me a hand. Writing songs\, singing songs\, putting them on records\, has been a way for me to extend that hand to others.” \nWith grace\, courage\, and soul\, Iris shares 13 anthems — love songs\, really — to and for our broken inner and outer worlds. DeMent sets the stage for the album with the title track in which she moves from a sense of despair towards a place of promise. “Now I’m workin’ on a world I may never see / Joinin’ forces with the warriors of love / Who came before and will follow you and me.” \nShe summons various social justice warriors\, both past and present\, to deliver messages of optimism. “How Long” references Martin Luther King\, while “Warriors of Love” includes John Lewis and Rachel Corrie. “Goin’ Down To Sing in Texas” is an ode not only to gun control\, but also to the brave folks who speak out against tyranny and endure the consequences in an unjust world. “I kept hearing a lot of talk about the arc of history that Dr. King so famously said bends towards justice\,” she recalls. “I was having my doubts. But\, then it dawned on me\, he never said the arc would magically bend itself. Songs\, over the course of history\, have proven to be pretty good arc benders.” \nBending inward\, DeMent reaches agilely under the slippery surface of politics. She grapples with loss on the deeply honest “I Won’t Ask You Why\,” while encouraging compassion over hate in the awe-inspiring “Say A Good Word.” Album closer \n“Waycross\, Georgia\,” encompasses the end of the journey\, thanking those along the way. As she approaches subjects of aging\, loss\, suicide\, and service\, an arc of compassion elevated to something far beyond words is transmitted. The delicate fierceness encompassed in the riveting power of her voice has somehow only grown over time. \nStalled partway through by the pandemic\, the record took six years to make with the help of three friends and co-producers: Richard Bennett\, Pieta Brown\, and Jim Rooney. It was Pieta Brown who gave the record its final push. “Pieta asked me what had come of the recordings I’d done with Jim and Richard in 2019 and 2020. I told her I’d pretty much given up on trying to make a record. She asked would I mind if she had a listen. So\, I had everything we’d done sent over to her\, and not long after that I got a text\, bouncing with exclamation marks: ‘You have a record and it’s called Workin’ On A World!’” With Bennett back in the studio with them\, Brown and DeMent recorded several more songs and put the final touches on the record in Nashville in April of 2022. \nThe result is a hopeful album — shimmering with brilliant flashes of poignant humor and uplifting tenderness — that speaks the truth\, “in the way that truth is always hopeful\,” she explains. Reflecting on the lyrics of the song “The Sacred Now” (“see these walls/ let’s bring ‘em on down / it’s not a dream; it’s the sacred now”)\, DeMent is reminded of Jesus saying the Kingdom of God is within you and the Buddhist activist monk Thich Nhat Hanh saying the rose is in the compost; the compost is in the rose. On Workin’ On A World\, Iris DeMent demonstrates that songs are the healing and the healing arises through song. \nAna Egge \nAna Egge is a singer-songwriter and apprentice luthier from Brooklyn\, NY. She has released 13 studio albums\, playing her homemade guitar. Egge’s music has been praised by critics for its honesty\, vulnerability\, and beauty. She was born in Canada\, and raised in North Dakota\, and has toured extensively throughout North America and Europe. Egge is the subject of a 2015 documentary film\, Bright Shadow. She has been featured in Billboard\, Rolling Stone\, and on NPR to name a few. Lucinda Williams calls her “the folk Nina Simone.” \nEgge’s newest album\, “Sharing in the Spirit\,” is a collection of songs that touch on politics\, addiction\, sex\, and love. The album was produced by Lorenzo Wolff following their previous collaboration\, 2021’s “Between Us.” \nThe album opens with “Don’t You Sleep\,” a civil rights celebration of hope and hard work. “Where Berries Grow” is a biblical\, bluegrass beauty about people Ana has loved and known. The album also touches on addiction and sobriety\, with songs like “Mission Bells Moan” and an adapted cover of the classic “Sorry You’re Sick\,” by Ted Hawkins. The final track and first single is sung in tribute\, “Last Day of Our Acquaintance\,” penned by the late\, great Sinead O’Connor. \n“Sharing in the Spirit” is an addictive mix of fearless strength and an almost childlike sense of fun. Seen in the cover photograph of Ana driving her minibike at the age of five and in the back cover photo where Ana revisits her childhood home of Ambrose\, North Dakota\, now a ghost town where the streets have been reclaimed by prairie grass. The music inside is a dream born from dreams.

SUMMARY:DSP Shows: Leo Kottke
DESCRIPTION:  \nWednesday\, November 13\, 2024\nShow at 8 pm; Doors open at 7 pm\n  \nOn Sale: Friday\, 9/27 at 10 am \nTickets: $45 \n  \nPlease note – the Hangar Theatre does not handle ticketing for DSP shows.  If you need assistance with tickets contact DSP directly at info@dspshows.com or 607-280-2900. \n  \nLeo Kottke \nAcoustic guitarist Leo Kottke was born in Athens\, Georgia\, but left town after a year and a half. Raised in 12 different states\, he absorbed a variety of musical influences as a child\, flirting with both violin and trombone\, before abandoning Stravinsky for the guitar at age 11. \nAfter adding a love for the country-blues of Mississippi John Hurt to the music of John Phillip Sousa and Preston Epps\, Kottke joined the Navy underage\, to be underwater\, and eventually lost some hearing shooting at lightbulbs in the Atlantic while serving on the USS Halfbeak\, a diesel submarine. \nKottke had previously entered college at the U of Missouri\, dropping out after a year to hitchhike across the country to South Carolina\, then to New London and into the Navy\, with his twelve string. “The trip was not something I enjoyed\,” he has said\, “I was broke and met too many interesting people.” \nDischarged in 1964\, he settled in the Twin Cities area and became a fixture at Minneapolis’ Scholar Coffeehouse\, which had been home to Bob Dylan and John Koerner. He issued his 1968 recording debut LP Twelve String Blues\, recorded on a Viking quarter-inch tape recorder\, for the Scholar’s tiny Oblivion label. (The label released one other LP by The Langston Hughes Memorial Eclectic Jazz Band.) \nAfter sending tapes to guitarist John Fahey\, Kottke was signed to Fahey’s Takoma label\, releasing what has come to be called the Armadillo record. Fahey and his manager Denny Bruce soon secured a production deal for Kottke with Capitol Records. \nKottke’s 1971 major-label debut\, “Mudlark\,” positioned him somewhat uneasily in the singer/songwriter vein\, despite his own wishes to remain an instrumental performer. Still\, despite arguments with label heads as well as with Bruce\, Kottke flourished during his tenure on Capitol\, as records like 1972’s “Greenhouse” and 1973’s live “My Feet Are Smiling” and “Ice Water” found him branching out with guest musicians and honing his guitar technique. \nWith 1975’s Chewing Pine\, Kottke reached the U.S. Top 30 for the second time; he also gained an international following thanks to his continuing tours in Europe and Australia. \nHis collaboration with Phish bassist Mike Gordon\, “Clone\,” caught audiences’ attention in 2002. Kottke and Gordon followed with a recording in the Bahamas called “Sixty Six Steps\,” produced by Leo’s old friend and Prince producer David Z. \nKottke has been awarded two Grammy nominations; a Doctorate in Music Performance by the Peck School of Music at the U of Wisconsin\, Milwaukee; and a Certificate of Significant Achievement in Not Playing the Trombone from the U of Texas at Brownsville with Texas Southmost College.

SUMMARY:DSP Shows: Willie Watson Tour
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, December 14\, 2024\nShow at 8 p.m.\, Doors open at 7 p.m.\n\nOn-Sale: Friday\, June 21st \n$25 in advance / $30 at the door \nPlease note – the Hangar Theatre does not handle ticketing for DSP shows.  If you need assistance with tickets contact DSP directly at info@dspshows.com or 607-280-2900. \nWillie Watson\nSoon before Willie Watson turned 18\, he met God in an apple orchard. Or at the very least\, he met there a man named Ruby Love\, the older friend of a high-school buddy who had an enormous Martin guitar and a seemingly bigger understanding of the American folk songbook. Watson was existentially thirsty: A high-school dropout from upstate New York’s Finger Lakes\, he was fast on his way to his first heartbreak and in a first band that didn’t take itself seriously enough. But that night in an apple orchard that had always seemed magical\, at a graduation party for one of his bandmates and best friends\, Watson and Love sang a few of those old songs together—“Worried Man Blues” and “Tennessee Waltz.” It was the first time Watson had cried while singing\, the first time he had made the connection between making music and making sense of his life. He never saw Ruby Love again\, but within months of that foundational 1997 rendezvous\, he met the musicians with whom he’d soon start Old Crow Medicine Show. Call it revelation\, fate\, resurrection\, whatever you will; for Watson\, more than a quarter-century later\, it was a duet with the divine. \nAs told in the talking-gospel masterpiece “Reap ’em in the Valley\,” that scene is the transfixing finale of Watson’s self-titled debut as a songwriter and as a human at last making music to make sense of his life. Yes\, Watson has released two albums since he left Old Crow Medicine Show a dozen years ago and since his long-term collaborations with David Rawlings and Gillian Welch. \nBut those records\, both titled Folk Singer\, were sets of tunes he knew\, interpretations of the songbook he has diligently mined since even before that night in the apple orchard. At 44\, however\, he feels that Willie Watson is his first-ever true album\, having finally lived and lost and simply witnessed enough to know he has something to sing with his exquisite rural tenor. Watson has not abandoned those old songs entirely. He dazzles during a robust take on the forever-curious “Mole in the Ground” and treats “Harris and the Mare\,” the standard of tragic Canadian singer Stan Rogers\, with total tenderness. But by and large\, these are his stories of heartbreak and hurt\, backlit by the corona of hope that only growth can provide. \nEvery memory\, Watson likes to say\, is surrounded by a shroud of sadness\, whether it’s good or bad. And there are lots of memories in a life\, all mixed: Though the band he started soon after that night with Ruby Love long gave him a purpose and career\, it conscripted him into a role as an old-fashioned folkie\, forever stuck playing a part that got tiring. Marriage and fatherhood became boons in their own time\, but they kept him bound to Los Angeles\, its sprawl and selfishness causing a country boy like Watson to lose himself again. And there was the stereotypical excess of it all\, too\, the habits of hard living nearly breaking Watson in his 30s. \nBut after he lost those relationships\, he slowly got sober and faced himself head on\, working to be honest about the traumas of his childhood that had helped create the troubles of adulthood. Sobriety\, though\, was never enough for Watson. He wanted that shift to prompt change and growth\, to force him into situations that were beneficial because they were uncomfortable and challenging. That\, in many ways\, is the motivation of these nine songs and the only album he’s ever felt deserved to bear his name. \nIn 2020\, Watson began convening with Morgan Nagler\, an actress and songwriter he’d met years earlier through Rawlings. They’d discuss an idea and then often sit in silence\, scratching away at it separately as Watson wriggled around on a couch\, as if wrestling with his past in the real time of the present. Sometimes playful and sometimes persecuted\, the songs that emerged looked \nbackward to move ahead\, dealing with disappointments in phrases of crisp rhyme and sly wordplay. \nA post-pandemic solo tour had left Watson feeling drained by the idea of being some standalone entertainer\, onstage alone taming crowds who had forgotten how to listen amid extended isolation. He knew he wanted a band for these songs\, but he understood they only needed to be the framing beneath them\, supporting rather than distracting from these reckonings with self. Alongside producers Kenneth Pattengale and Gabe Witcher\, respectively of Milk Carton Kids and Punch Brothers\, Watson assembled a modest ensemble of aces who were largely new to him but would respond to the songs intuitively and without intrusion—bassist Paul Kowert\, guitarist Dylan Day\, drummer Jason Boesel\, fiddler Sami Braman. (Careful listeners may note cameos from Benmont Tench and Sebastian Steinberg\, too.) Start to finish\, these songs sound like moments of mutual discovery\, the entire group arriving together to look at Watson’s life and realize something about and for themselves. \n“Real Love” harkens back to those days in rural New York\, with Watson opening himself to the wreckage that comes with falling for someone for the first time. He is fragile but resolute here\, pressing on in spite of vestigial pain. “Sad Song” thrums like some muted and modern Jimmie Rodgers number\, as Watson tries to play-act happiness one more time for a society that’s just wanted him to grin and sing. Echoing the rippling and beautiful despair of Gordon Lightfoot\, the gorgeous “Play It One More Time” examines the fleeting salve of music itself\, or how the help it gives us can fade when we’re not truly hearing. \nAnd then there’s the hotrod acoustic opener\, “Slim and the Devil\,” a wits-sharp adaptation of the Sterling A. Brown poem “Slim Greer in Hell.” The story of a Faustian bargain made with St. Peter at the pearly gates in exchange for one more earthly adventure\, it’s a sly contemplation of the meaningless deals we make to endure when we all know what’s inevitable\, anyway. Watson does it\, too\, so he winks at himself alongside a band that’s having a blast having his back. Still\, there is no winking to “Already Gone\,” a devastating if elegant survey of the damage we leave behind as we make bad choices\, as we force people to leave our lives. “There’s no hearts to break here\,” Watson offers before the knockout. “They’re already gone.” \nThese days\, Watson looks askance at his old reputation and knows other people do\, too. “‘I thought you were just some nice little singer who sang in the little fucking cowboy hat\,’” he deadpans\, characterizing the perception he knows he has in many ways courted. And he recognizes that people probably don’t think he can write his own songs of meaning and depth\, since he spent so long reworking those of others. For a long time\, he bought that\, too. But the hat is off\, as is the desire to be a mere entertainer or interpreter. The nine songs on Willie Watson find a bona fide songwriter dealing with the difficulties of his past to suggest a renewed future; what’s more\, he uses his keen and expansive understanding of an old lexicon to add his own new entries to it. As with the best folk songs\, you will recognize your own burdens here. As with the best folk singers\, you will feel compelled to sound them out\, too. Who knows\, maybe you’ll even meet God in an apple orchard.
