Being constantly on the road for his music while also perpetually on the move throughout the Sahel region of Africa is the norm. So when the pandemic brought the world to a screeching halt\, Bombino found himself in an unfamiliar space: being in one place. “I’m used to traveling virtually every week and then I was locked down for two years\,” he says from his home in Niamey\, the capital of Niger. “On the positive side\, I get back in touch with my home and spend real time there with my family for the first time in a long time.”What resulted was the follow-up to 2018’s Deran\, a record that turned Bombino into the first-ever Grammy-nominated artist from Niger. This new collection of songs\, entitled Sahel after the African region spanning East-West from the Atlantic Ocean to the Red Sea\, is Bombino’s most personal\, powerful\, and politically-minded work to date. It’s also his most sonically diverse\, a quality he set out to achieve from the start\, and one that is meant to directly mirror the complex tapestry of cultures and people that make up the Sahel region itself. He says\, “the general plight of the Tuareg is always on my mind and while I’ve addressed it in my music all along\, I wanted to give it a special focus on this album.”To bring the songs to life\, Bombino worked closely with Welsh producer/ mixer David Wrench (David Byrne\, Frank Ocean\, Caribou\, Goldfrapp\, Erasure\, The xx\, Sampha)\, decamping with his bandmates to a studio in Casablanca for ten days to lay down the album. “Bombino’s an incredible musician\, easily one of the best musicians I ever worked with\,” Wrench says with fondness of seeing the Tuareg guitarist up close. “What he does looks effortless\, but it’s so complex. It’s such a refined style\, it’s so him\, it’s unique. It contains all this history in it\, it’s amazing.” The feeling is mutual. While Bombino has been fortunate to have sympathetic guitarists like Dan Auerbach and David Longstreth sit in the producer’s chair in the past\, Wrench provided a new level of expertise. \n\n\n\n“What I love about working with David is just how incredibly fine-tuned his ear is\, how incredibly focused he gets in the studio\,” Bombino says. “Nothing escapes him. Even the tiniest little things would grab his attention and he would put great focus into the smallest details of the sound.” Time and time again\, Wrench would watch Bombino blaze through an amazing take in the studio\, then go right back “and double-track it and it’s just perfect. He’s operating on some different level somewhere.” \n\n\n\nThe ten songs that comprise Sahel range in theme from the plight of the Tuareg to the ache of lost love to the follies of youth. Opener “Tazidert” preaches patience even as the music itself urges you to stand up and move. The driving “Aitma” features Bombino’s sparks-spraying guitar pyrotechnics\, punctuated by howling ululations. It’s a call-to-arms delivered in his native Tamasheq. “Let’s defend our people because we are the same regardless of our geographical position\,” he says as he shouts out the Tuareg throughout the region. He explains: “When you look at the situations in each of the five countries that make up the Sahel (Libya\, Algeria\, Mauritania\, Mali\, and parts of Burkina Faso)\, the Tuareg people are not represented in these governments.” And only recently did that situation change in Niger. \n\n\n\nSahel looks forward and to the past\, a mix of new and old songs\, but each one of them resonated with Bombino for one reason or another. “A lot of bands go into the studio with a set of tracks that they’ve rehearsed\, but that’s not how Bombino works\,” Wrench says. “He goes with what he’s feeling at the time and it’s a much more instinctive way of recording. He’s drawing from this memory of these hundreds of songs he’s written. He pulls from that well of his own work and the history of his culture; he pulls out of that what he feels is right.” \n\n\n\n“Si Chilan” (Two Days) is one of the oldest songs in Bombino’s extensive repertoire\, first written in the 1980s. “I like to put a spotlight on songs that have persisted in my repertoire for a really long time\, but haven’t made their way onto an album\,” he says. “When you’ve lived with a song for that long\, you’re always finding new things in it\, new ways to express it. They’re dynamic in that sense – the song will continue to evolve\, at least in how I relate to it and perform it. I liken it to honey\, a good old song is like honey\, it just gets better and better with age.” \n\n\n\nSimilarly\, “Nik Sant Awanha” (My Brothers I Know our Situation) dates to the late ‘90s and is one of Bombino’s most incisive political commentaries to date\, lamenting the divisions amid the Tuareg people\, the risks of exile\, and an even greater existential threat\, the loss of Tuareg culture. “Even though geographically the Sahara desert is our home\, so many of the Tuareg people are denied or deprived of certain basic necessities throughout the region\,” he says. “This has been motivating me a lot\, the types of songs I sing and why. I want to get people thinking about the Tuareg\, to represent those people who haven’t been represented. They really need a voice.” \n\n\n\nAside from loss of representation in these countries’ governments and the absence of the Tuareg in mainstream culture\, Bombino sees that even with the instant interconnectedness that smartphones can bring\, “the biggest threat I see is technology and modernization. A small\, marginalized culture like the Tuareg risks getting lost in the homogenization of culture.” \n\n\n\nFor the broader topics that Bombino addresses throughout the album\, the hushed acoustic closer “Mes Amis” sings of youth and unrequited love. “It’s important to reflect the personal themes\, to connect with people on a personal level\, giving them stories and themes they can relate to\,” Bombino says\, adding that the extra time he spent at home\, being with his children\, helped to clarify his purpose. “Everything I do is in service to my family\, to give to them and to better their situation.” \n\n\n\nWrench’s role was to present Bombino and his band in a way that captured the Tuareg sound (which spans centuries) while connecting it to our immediate present. It’s not a museum artifact\, but a living ‘now.’ While Wrench made his name mixing and recording psychedelic rock and electronic music\, he heard Bombino as part of that spectrum. “To me\, I see him not that far outside of those realms. The rhythms are all in 3s instead of 4s\, but it has a similar effect: the repetition and intensity and the feeling it has\, it’s not a million miles away from techno. Listening to his music has a similar effect on you: it can definitely take you somewhere quite different.”With Bombino as your guide\, let Sahel take you there as well. \n\n\n\nLearn more: Website / Facebook / YouTube / Spotify \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOPENER: Garland Burton\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBorn in Greenville\, MS\, and led by his guitar\, Garland Burton has been dazzling locals in Colorado’s Roaring Fork Valley with various traditional Mississippi Blues genres since 2011.  \n\n\n\nAfter graduating from Mississippi State University\, Garland had interest in pursuing a career in the Music Industry\, and found himself visiting friends in Aspen\, CO. The prolific and intimate music culture in the area captivated Garland as he found comfort in a small town\, along with many other substantial opportunities. Garland feels now is the time to put his talent and artistry on the big stage. “Now that I’m in my mid-30s\, maturity\, wisdom\, and experience has added integrity to the music”\, says Garland. “I have a lot of ideas that cross music genres\, but the Mississippi Delta Blues is what I grew up on\, and I want to be a part of preserving that original American sound.”  \n\n\n\nGarland\, along with drummer Toby Britt\, cover the sounds of Classic Blues to Classic Rock\, with a few of Burton’s originals. From Albert King to Cream\, Garland employs his deep MS roots with Britt’s smooth\, New Orleans influence establishing the “pocket”. You would think Burton’s strings are silk\, but on fire! Many attribute Burton to be the “Gary Clark Jr.” of Aspen. He accepts that comparison as pride to the fact that other young guitarist are also proliferating the Blues genre. “Garland” is a new project working on establishing art and content for eclectic listeners and prospective Blues fans. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open for show @ 7:00pm / Show @ 8:00pm\n\n\n\nSTANDING ROOM | 18+\n\n\n\nGenerously underwritten by Michael Lipkin & Jody Guralnick\n\n\n\nLocation: TACAW\, 400 Robinson St\, Basalt\, CO 81621\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: TACAW URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/bombino/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Bombino_640by360.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20231004T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20231004T173000 DTSTAMP:20260605T182350 CREATED:20230830T043038Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231005T151151Z UID:12061-1696440600-1696440600@tacaw.org SUMMARY:THE LONGEVITY PROJECT: MAINTAINING MOBILITY\, BALANCE\, AND ATHLETICISM THROUGHOUT LIFE DESCRIPTION:THE LONGEVITY PROJECT\n\n\n\nMAINTAINING MOBILITY\, BALANCE\, AND ATHLETICISM THROUGHOUT LIFE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW @ 5:30PM / DOORS @ 5:00PM \n\n\n\nTICKET PRICE: $15 \n\n\n\nSEATED SHOW | ALL AGES \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is ticketed through our partner The Aspen Times & Post Independent \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE LONGEVITY PROJECT: MAINTAINING MOBILITY\, BALANCE\, AND ATHLETICISM THROUGHOUT LIFE\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGenre: WELLNESS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event will focus on the importance of maintaining mobility\, balance and strength throughout your life – yes\, the use it or lose it principle applies – with plenty of tips to check where you are compared with where you would like to be. \n\n\n\nThe panel will include local sports performance coach and physical therapist Bill Fabrocini\, Dr. Dustin Anderson from the Steadman Clinic\, and Jennifer Stevens-Lapsley\, who is a professor and director of the rehabilitation science PhD Program CU Anschutz. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n TICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open for show @ 5:00pm / Show @ 5:30pm\n\n\n\nSeated Show | All Ages\n\n\n\nThis event is ticketed through our partner The Aspen Times & Post Independent\n\n\n\nLocation: TACAW\, 400 Robinson St\, Basalt\, CO 81621\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented in partnership: TACAW\, The Aspen Times & Post Independent URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/the-longevity-project-2/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Longevity-Project-MAINTAINING-MOBILITY-BALANCE-AND-ATHLETICISM-THROUGHOUT-LIFE_640by360.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20231003T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20231003T180000 DTSTAMP:20260605T182350 CREATED:20230926T194932Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231004T145440Z UID:12280-1696356000-1696356000@tacaw.org SUMMARY:Chinobay and Dance of Hope DESCRIPTION:Chinobay and Dance of Hope\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW @ 6:00PM / DOORS @ 5:30PM \n\n\n\nFREE WITH RSVP \n\n\n\nSEATED SHOW | ALL AGES \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: Jazz Aspen Snowmass\, Action In Africa and TACAW \n\n\n\nUNDERWRITTEN BY HEIRLOOMS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFREE WITH RSVP\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT Chinobay and Dance of Hope\n\n\n\nDance of Hope is a youth-based cultural touring ensemble from you Uganda and hailed as Africa’s most impactful arts\, education program.

Matt Flinner\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGenre: Folk / Bluegrass \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTony is an evocative and soulful singer\, a wide-ranging songwriter and a virtuoso multi-instrumental-ist adept on banjo\, cello-banjo\, slide guitar and baritone ukulele who mixes and matches sounds and styles with the flair of a master chef (he’s also an accomplished sculptor\, but that’s another story). All of the music of America is in Tony’s music. Relix hit the nail on the head when writing of Tony: “True talent doesn’t need categories.  \n\n\n\n”A native of Pleasanton\, California\, who now makes his home in Portland\, Oregon\, Tony Furtado took up the banjo at age 12\, inspired by the Beverly Hillbillies television show and a sixth-grade music report. He first attracted national attention in 1987\, when he won the National Bluegrass Banjo Championship in Winfield\, Kansas. Not long after that\, Tony opt-ed for the life of a full-time professional musician\, joining Laurie Lewis & Grant Street. A second victory at Winfield\, in 1991\, bookended his years with Grant Street. \n\n\n\nIn 1990\, Tony signed a recording deal with Rounder Records\, one of the country’s preeminent independent record companies. Beginning with Swamped in 1990\, he recorded six critically acclaimed albums for the label\, collaborating with such master musicians as Alison Krauss\, Jerry Douglas\, Tim O’Brien\, Stuart Duncan\, Kelly Joe Phelps and Mike Marshall. During this period\, Tony also performed and recorded with the band SugarBeat and the Rounder Banjo Extravaganza with Tony Trischka and Tom Adams. \n\n\n\nBeginning in the late 1990s – influenced by such musical heroes as Ry Cooder\, David Lind-ley and Taj Mahal – Tony added slide guitar\, singing and songwriting to his musical toolbox and began leading his own band. He is a tireless road musician who performs in a dizzying variety of formats: solo\, in a duo or trio or with his full five-person band. He especially values the opportunities he has had to tour with such legendary musicians as Gregg Allman and with such esteemed slide guitarists as David Lindley\, Derek Trucks and Sonny Landreth. \n\n\n\nTony has performed throughout the world at top venues and appeared at such prestigious music festivals as the Telluride Bluegrass Festival\, High Sierra Music Festival\, Jazz Aspen\, Kerrville Folk Festival\, Strawberry Music Festival\, Winnipeg Folk Festival\, Sisters Folk Festival\, San Jose Jazz Festival and countless others.  \n\n\n\nLearn more: Website / Facebook / Instagram / YouTube \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt Flinner – MandolinMulti-instrumentalist Matt Flinner has made a career out of playing acoustic music in new ways. Starting out as a banjo prodigy who was playing bluegrass festivals before he entered his teens\, Flinner later took up the mandolin\, won the National Banjo Contest at Winfield Kansas in 1990\, and took the mandolin award there the following year. Since then\, he has become recognized as one of the premiere mandolinists as well as one of the finest new acoustic/roots music composers today. He has toured and recorded with a wide variety of bluegrass\, new acoustic\, classical\, and jazz artists\, including Tim O’Brien\, Frank Vignola\, Steve Martin\, Darrell Scott\, the Modern Mandolin Quartet\, Dave Douglas\, Leftover Salmon\, Alison Brown\, The Ying Quartet\, Tony Trischka\, Darol Anger\, and the Nashville Chamber Orchestra. He has also recorded two Compass Records CDs and toured as part of Phillips\, Grier\, and Flinner with bassist Todd Phillips and guitarist David Grier. His two solo CDs (also on Compass)\, “The View from Here” and “Latitude\,” are now widely considered classics in the new acoustic/modern bluegrass style. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLuke Price – Fiddle \n\n\n\nLuke Price is a multi-instrumentalist performer\, composer\, and studio musician based in Portland\, OR.  He has his roots in American fiddling and swing traditions\, which have influenced his rhythm\, taste\, and style as they have spread into Soul\, Jazz\, Pop\, and Americana.  Luke brings a unique voice to any music he plays\, whether he’s on the fiddle\, electric guitar\, or singing.   \n\n\n\nGrowing up in Boise\, Idaho\, Luke began competing in fiddle contests and playing around the country.  He’s won a plethora of contests\, awards\, and scholarships. He is the current\, and 5-time Grand National Fiddle Champion.  His love for rhythm and improvisation born out of these traditional music styles led him to Boston\, MA to attend The Berklee College of Music\, where he met his now wife and musical partner\, Rachael Price\, to form their Soul Pop band\, “Love\, DEAN.”  After graduation\, they moved to Portland\, OR where they continue to play\, teach\, and write. \n\n\n\nLuke has played with a variety of amazing musicians\, and always tends to bring some good times to any music he is making.  He’s known for his taste\, rhythm\, tight harmonies\, and inventive ideas.  He has toured\, played\, and recorded with folks including: Tony Furtado\, Scott Law\, Jesse Harper (of Love Canon)\, Stephen Malkmus\, Lee Ann Womack\, Tristan and Tashina Clarridge\, Simon Chrisman\, Ben Krakauer\, Matt Hartz\, and John Hermann. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open for show @ 7:00pm / Show @ 8:00pm\n\n\n\nSEATED SHOW | ALL AGES\n\n\n\nUnderwritten By First Bank\n\n\n\nLocation: TACAW\, 400 Robinson St\, Basalt\, CO 81621\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: TACAW URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/tony-furtado/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Tony-Furtado_640by360.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20230929T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20230929T220000 DTSTAMP:20260605T182350 CREATED:20230825T165626Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230930T235537Z UID:12008-1696017600-1696024800@tacaw.org SUMMARY:TACAW TURNS TWO: EDDIE ROBERTS & THE LUCKY STROKES DESCRIPTION:TACAW TURNS TWO: Eddie Roberts & the Lucky Strokes\n\n\n\nwith opener Dragondeer \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW @ 8:00PM / DOORS @ 7:00PM \n\n\n\n$20 MEMBERS / $25 ADVANCE / $30 DAY OF \n\n\n\nSTANDING ROOM SHOW | 21+ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUNDERWRITTEN BY \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCELEBRATE TACAW’s SECOND BIRTHDAY\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGenre: Funk / Blues / Rock and Roll \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a night of revelry as we celebrate TACAW’s second birthday. It’s been a phenomenal two years\, and we invite the community to come together and partake in the fun. We have two great bands lined up (learn more below) and the festivities will start early and go late. Come celebrate our success and raise a glass to our bright future. \n\n\n\nABOUT EDDIE ROBERTS & THE LUCKY STROKES \n\n\n\nIf luck is what happens when hard work meets opportunity\, the union of Eddie Roberts & The Lucky Strokes epitomizes that adage. The New Mastersounds’ guitarist and bandleader has a knack for leaning into individual strengths and that sensibility is evidenced through his recruitment of Mississippi-based guitarist and vocalist\, Shelby Kemp\, who brings a Southern rock grit and candid\, nimble songwriting to team up with the Tampa Bay-based Galbraith sisters who possess a simpatico rhythm section chemistry only found within a family bloodline. Powered by the urbane guitar playing and production of Roberts and you have a new tour de force ensemble that makes listeners stop in their tracks the same way Roberts did upon hearing the talents of Kemp and the Galbraith Sisters. \n\n\n\nThe quartet first teamed up to perform Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom’s 20th Anniversary party in Denver\, CO\, and recorded a full-length record at Color Red Studios the next day to further solidify the newly forged musical connection. The sound is an amalgamation of celebrated country lyricists such as Willie Nelson\, Waylon Jennings\, and George Jones mixed with the rhythmically driven aesthetics of James Brown and rounded out by honest rock ‘n’ roll—a combination slated to make its own luck and take the scene by storm. \n\n\n\nLearn more: Facebook / Instagram / YouTube / Spotify \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n TICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOPENER: DRAGONDEER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDenver band Dragondeer has conjured the rhythm spirits to concoct a blend of Psychedelic Blues\, Retro Funk\, Soul and Rock-n-Roll into a genre blur that’s aim is to speak to souls and keep the body moving. Four good friends that brew a musical alchemy that is song centric with a proclivity to stretch things out and see where the evening leads. Heard across radio waves\, through the trees at festivals like Electric Forrest\, Firefly\, and Telluride Blues this band keeps growing and morphing and wants you in on the ride. \n\n\n\nDragondeer has shared the stage with Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats\, Futurebirds\, Neal Francis\, Marcus King\, The Revivalists\, Shakey Graves\, Dumpstaphunk\, Drive By Truckers\, and Jerry Joseph.  \n\n\n\n“Dragondeer hit the stage with their thick blues-rock sound. Reminiscent of early Led Zeppelin\, The Black Keys\, and electric Taj Mahal\, the quartet stunned the audience with their hybrid of Mississippi Delta blues and 1960s psychedelic rock. Lead vocalist\, guitarist and harmonica player Eric Halborg led the band with a rare ferocity\, his deep growl and swampy harmonica blending perfectly with Cole Rudy’s raw pedal steel playing. Shocking many in attendance and quickly catapulting onto the Denver scene\, Dragondeer is a growing force to be reckoned with.” – Live For Live Music \n\n\n\nLearn more: Website / Facebook / Instagram / YouTube / Spotify \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open for show @ 7:00pm / Show @ 8:00pm\n\n\n\nStanding Room Show | 21+\n\n\n\nLocation: TACAW\, 400 Robinson St\, Basalt\, CO 81621\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: TACAW URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/tacaw-turns-two-eddie-roberts-the-lucky-strokes/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Eddie-Roberts-the-Lucky-Strokes-EDDIE-ROBERTS-THE-LUCKY-STROKES_640by360.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20230927T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20230927T183000 DTSTAMP:20260605T182350 CREATED:20230830T044207Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230928T165001Z UID:12067-1695839400-1695839400@tacaw.org SUMMARY:Equity Speaker Series: Building a More Disability-Inclusive Workforce DESCRIPTION:Equity Speaker Series:\n\n\n\nBuilding a More Disability-Inclusive Workforce \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW @ 6:30PM / DOORS @ 5:30PM \n\n\n\nFREE WITH RSVP \n\n\n\nSEATED SHOW | ALL AGES \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFREE WITH RSVP\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented in Partnership with the Equity Action Project \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT Equity Speaker Series: Building a More Disability-Inclusive Workforce\n\n\n\nJoin us as we honor and celebrate National Disability Employment Awareness Month with a panel of different perspectives from the community.  \n\n\n\nThis conversation will begin by helping to define “disability” and how different disabilities may impact an individual’s employment opportunities.

When it came to music\, most of the kids he grew up with pursued hip-hop\, adopting rap names. However\, it’s no coincidence that Charles chose the name BLKBOK\, which echoes that of one of the greatest pianists and composers of all time. The tag is also an apt reflection of the elements that have contributed to the artist’s identity and symbolizes his colorful journey from pop and hip-hop culture to his critically acclaimed\, neo-classical debut album Black Book\, and various Mixtape projects and collaborations.  \n\n\n\nBLKBOK’s live\, high-energy performance is culturally reflective and seeks to entertain with a live piano based performance like none you have ever seen before. BLKBOK’s vision is to illuminate awareness for all\, encouraging dialogue and counterpoint in the way we perceive ourselves and the world we live in together. \n\n\n\nBLKBOK’s critically-acclaimed debut album Black Book\, served as a founding cornerstone at the very first Juneteenth Foundation’s Freedom Concert and was re-released as a DLUX Edition in June\, with two new tracks\, Forgotten Girls and Kendrick + Karine\, covering relevant topics in mainstream culture\, and in the voice that is uniquely BLKBOK. His first Mixtape release\, CVRART\, and Mixtape project Angels Watching Over Me\, with world-renowned tenor Lawrence Brownlee\, illustrate the innovative and disruptive musical landscape that is BLKBOK.

Registration is requested. \n\n\n\nABOUT LITTLE MONSTERS \n\n\n\n“Gorgeously told\, with psychological nuance to spare … This is the work of a seasoned and wonderfully wise storyteller.” — Paula Mclain\, New York Times bestselling author of “The Paris Wife” \n\n\n\n“Wrenching\, psychologically complex\, and emotionally satisfying\, ‘Little Monsters’ is an immersive pleasure. This sprawling\, big-hearted family saga is about the lies we tell each other and ourselves that enable us to maintain alliances — and what happens when we start telling the truth.” — Christina Baker Kline\, New York Times bestselling author of “Orphan Train” \n\n\n\n“’Little Monsters’ is an elegant and ambitious novel\, a family saga deeply rooted in the landscape of Cape Cod. Adrienne Brodeur writes about complicated\, sometimes difficult people and the natural world they inhabit with lyrical precision and deep emotional intelligence.” — Tom Perrotta\, New York Times bestselling author of “Little Children”  \n\n\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR \n\n\n\nAdrienne Brodeur is the author of the novel Little Monsters and the memoir\, Wild Game: My Mother\, Her Lover and Me\, which was described by The New York Times Book Review as: “Exquisite and harrowing. . . . The book is so gorgeously written and deeply insightful\, and with a line of narrative tension that never slacks\, from the first page to the last\, that it’s one you’ll likely read in a single\, delicious sitting.” Published in October 2019 by HMH Books\, Wild Game’s film rights were bought by Chernin Entertainment with Nick Hornby attached to adapt and Deniz Gamze Ergüven\, the director of Mustang\, attached to direct. \n\n\n\nAdrienne has spent the past two decades of her professional life in the literary world\, discovering voices\, cultivating talent\, and working to amplify underrepresented writers. Her publishing career began with founding the fiction magazine\, Zoetrope: All-Story\, with filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola\, where she served as editor-in-chief from 1996-2002. The magazine has won the prestigious National Magazine Award for best fiction four times. In 2005\, she became an editor at Harcourt (later\, HMH Books)\, where she acquired and edited literary fiction and memoir. Adrienne left publishing in 2013 to become Creative Director — and later Executive Director — of Aspen Words\, a literary arts nonprofit and program of the Aspen Institute. In 2017\, she launched the Aspen Words Literary Prize\, a $35\,000 annual award for an influential work of fiction that illuminates a vital contemporary issue and demonstrates the transformative power of literature on thought and culture. \n\n\n\nLearn more: Website \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFREE EVENT with Registration\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open for show @ 6:00pm / Show @ 6:30pm\n\n\n\nSeated show | All Ages\n\n\n\nLocation: TACAW\, 400 Robinson St\, Basalt\, CO 81621 URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/aspen-words-adrienne-brodeur/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Aspen-Words-Adrienne-Brodeur_640by360.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20230908T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20230908T200000 DTSTAMP:20260605T182350 CREATED:20230720T163100Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230909T210838Z UID:11840-1694203200-1694203200@tacaw.org SUMMARY:Natalie Spears & Ollella ft. a Pearl & Wood Reunion DESCRIPTION:Natalie Spears & Ollella ft. a Pearl & Wood Reunion\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW @ 8:00PM / DOORS @ 7:00PM \n\n\n\n$21 MEMBERS / $25 ADVANCE / $35 DAY OF \n\n\n\nSEATED SHOW | ALL AGES \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n TICKETS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT Natalie Spears & Ollella ft. a Pearl & Wood Reunion\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGenre: Folk / Indie Folk \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNatalie Spears brings listeners in touch with the warmth of community\, the quiet awe of wild places\, and the intimate corners of humanity. Inspired by her father’s English Folk heritage and talents as a Jazz pianist\, Natalie carries a deep love for porch picking music and music that swings. Drawing on these roots and pulling from a quiver of instruments (banjo\, piano\, and guitar)\, her performance is dynamic as she navigates between these tonal worlds. Natalie’s angelic voice threads together a sonic language of both nostalgic and contemporary colors\, creating a vibrant musical narrative of her own. In 2021\, Natalie’s duo\, Lizzy Plotkin & Natalie Spears\, released their debut EP\, “Just Over the Ridge\,” which reached #10 album of the year on the Folk Alliance International Dj Folk Charts and her song\, Seasons Change\, reached #4 song of the year. \n\n\n\nLearn more: Website / Facebook / Instagram \n\n\n\nOLLELLA’s career as a musician started early when she sang before she could talk. She has since created a life as a multidisciplinary artist as an indie-folk cellist\, vocalist\, and songwriter. Trained as a classical cellist since the age of nine\, the Seattle musician merges her technical background with authoritative vocals\, live-looping\, and improvisation. Described as “really outstanding” by NPR Music’s Bob Boilen and “so tastefully done” by Michelle Zauner (AKA Japanese Breakfast)\, Ollella blends the acoustic with the contemporary\, folk with pop\, and tenacity with softness\, pulling on influences such as Feist\, Cat Power and Aoife O’Donovan. She finds herself drawn to music because it unlocks a particularly organic flavor of humanity – one that fits the type of world she believes in. \n\n\n\nLearn more: Website / Instagram / Spotify \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocal 7th and 11th graders enrolled in TACAW’s Youth Art Pass program are eligible to receive two (2) free admission tickets: one (1) for them and one (1) for a guest.

I remember figuring out how to do barre chords\, and I wrote a three-chord song about a girl I liked.” Drawn to music and supported by parents who just hadn’t wanted their boys to break a family heirloom\, Osborne played in bands throughout high school\, military school\, and college. \n\n\n\nWhen Osborne moved to Havana as part of a study abroad opportunity\, he thought he was abandoning music for anthropology. But the Cuban musicians and artists he befriended had other ideas. They were among the first to see that SUSTO––and the music that would ultimately fuel it––captured him too well to remain an afterthought. Re-energized\, he returned to the States half a year later and recorded SUSTO’s first album. Just after the release of the band’s self-titled debut album\, Osborne faced a clear choice. “It was a weird moment. I just had to finally quit keeping one foot out of music and dive in. So\, I got knuckle tattoos and haven’t stopped trying to make this work since then\,” he says with a laugh.  \n\n\n\nLearn more about: Website / Instagram / Facebook / Twitter / Youtube / Spotify \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOPENER: Johnny Delaware\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJohnny Delaware grew up in the great plains of the United States. A state champion runner in high school\, he attended college on scholarship and began recording music in his dorm room. He traveled all over the country working odd jobs\, starting bands\, and meeting musicians. In his mid-twenties\, while desiring to make a record\, Delaware was told by a friend to relocate to Charleston\, SC. Unfortunately\, he didn’t have the money for relocation or studio time\, but that changed after a tree fell onto his poorly maintained RAV4 and his insurance company paid him $10\,000. He went on to record his debut album Secret Wave with producer Wolfgang Zimmerman (Band of Horses\, Susto) and moved to Charleston\, SC. While in Charleston\, Mr. Delaware moved into the same house as Justin Osborne and the two became friends all the while writing and recording songs.

The GRAMMY Award-winning artist out of New Orleans received international praise as both key player and producer for his collaborative work on The Window(Mack Avenue\, 2018)\, alongside multi-GRAMMY winner\, vocalist-composer Cecile McLorin Salvant. As a solo leader\, he has released Moments Preserved(Decca\,2018) and Aria(Impulse!\, 2015) to critical acclaim\, and he’s only getting started. Now based in New York\, Fortner has earned recognition in multipleDownBeatCritics Poll categories\, winning first place in Rising Star Piano and Rising Star Jazz Artist. \n\n\n\nIn addition to associations with such diverse voices as Wynton Marsalis\, Paul Simon\, Diane Reeves\, Etienne Charles and John Scofield\, Fortner’s frequent and longtime collaborators have included Ambrose Akinmusire\, Dee Dee Bridgewater\, Stefon Harris\, Kassa Overall\, Tivon Pennicott\, Peter Bernstein\, Nicholas Payton\, Billy Hart\, Gary Bartz\, Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah\, Fred Hersch and the late Roy Hargrove. Recent collaborations include GRAMMY-nominated releasesDearLove(Empress Legacy) and Generations from leaders Jazzmeia Horn and The Baylor Project\, respectively. \n\n\n\nA highly-sought improviser\, Fortner has performed across the country and throughout the world at such cultural institutions as Snug Harbor\, New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts\, Sweet Lorraine’s and The Jazz Playhouse in New Orleans\, and Jazz at Lincoln Center\, Jazz Standard and Smalls Jazz Club in New York City. He’s appeared at celebrated festivals\, including Newport\, Monterey\, Discover\, Tri-C and Gillmore Keyboard\, among others. In 2019\, Fortner brought his band to the historic Village Vanguard for a week-long engagement he would reprise in 2020 as a virtual performance during the lockdown. His notable studio contributions include work on Etienne Charles’s Kaiso(Culture Shock\, 2011)\, DonaldHarrison’sQuantum Leap(FOMP\, 2010)\, and Theo Croker’s The Fundamentals(Left SidedMusic\, 2007). \n\n\n\nPlaying solo or leading an orchestra\, Fortner engages harmony and rhythmic ideas through curiosity and clarity. Within phrases\, he finds universes\, and listeners often hear how he’s moved by each note he explores. Coming up in New Orleans\, Fortner began playing piano at age 7\, following a storied lineage of improvisers\, masters of time and every iteration of the blues. He earned his Bachelor of Music from Oberlin Conservatory and Master of Music in Jazz Performance from Manhattan School of Music (MSM). A champion of mentorship\, Fortner has offered masterclasses at MSM\, New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA)\, Purdue University\, Lafayette Summer Music Workshop\, Belmont University and Oberlin Conservatory where he held a faculty position. \n\n\n\nPulling distinct elements from different eras\, Fortner’s artistry preserves the tradition and evolves the sound. He seeks connections among different musical styles that are at once deeply soulful and wildly inventive. Both his works and his insights have been featured in culturally iconic publications\, from The New York Times to The Root. Accolades include the 2015 Cole Porter Fellowship awarded by the American Pianists Association\, Leonore Annenberg Arts Fellowship\, the 2016 Lincoln Center Award for Emerging Artists and\, in 2020\, the prestigious Shifting Foundation Grant for artistic career development. \n\n\n\nLearn more: Website / Facebook / Instagram \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW ONLY TICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open for show @ 7:00pm / Show @ 8:00pm\n\n\n\nSEATED SHOW | ALL AGES\n\n\n\nLocation: TACAW\, 400 Robinson St\, Basalt\, CO 81621\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: TACAW URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/sullivan-fortner-trio/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sullivan_640by360.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20230724T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20230724T180000 DTSTAMP:20260605T182350 CREATED:20230524T030411Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230524T031445Z UID:11514-1690214400-1690221600@tacaw.org SUMMARY:KIDS COMEDY WORKSHOP WITH CONSENSUAL IMPROV / workshop DESCRIPTION:KIDS COMEDY WORKSHOP WITH CONSENSUAL IMPROV / WORKSHOP\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAges 11 – 14 \n\n\n\nSchedule: 4:00PM – 6:00 PM \n\n\n\nPrice: $10 | Limited spots available \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT KIDS COMEDY WORKSHOP WITH CONSENSUAL IMPROV\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by Consensual Improv \n\n\n\n\nMonday\, July 24\n\n\n\nAges 11 – 14\n\n\n\nTime: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM\n\n\n\nPrice: $10\n\n\n\n15 spots available\n\n\n\nLocation: The Arts Campus at Willits – 400 Robinson St Basalt\, CO 81621\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOne night only!

Music journalist and filmmaker Daniel Shaw will lead us through a discussion of Lynn’s latest book\, Music in the 80’s\, and her recent historic Supreme Court victory over the Estate of Andy Warhol in a landmark copyright case involving the use of one of her iconic photos. \n\n\n\nLynn Goldsmith’s imagery is in numerous museum collections: The Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery\, The Museum of Modern Art\, The Chicago Museum of Contemporary Photography\, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame\, Museum Folkwang\, The Polaroid Collection\, The Kodak Collection\, etc. Her work over the past 50 years in the editorial world has appeared on and between the covers of Life\, Newsweek\, Time\, Vanity Fair\, Rolling Stone\, National Geographic Traveler\, Sports Illustrated\, People\, Elle\, Interview\, The New Yorker\, etc. The subjects have varied from entertainment personalities to sports stars\, from film directors to authors\, from the extraordinary to the ordinary man on the street. Winning numerous prestigious awards from the Lucien Clergue to the World Press in Portraiture\, to the Lucie for Portraiture in 2020\, Lynn considers herself extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to make her quest into the nature of identity and the human spirit into her livelihood. \n\n\n\n Lynn has published fourteen books of her imagery\, one of which\, New Kids\, was on The New York Times Best Seller list–a rare occurrence for any coffee table book of photography. She’s also received two New York Art Direction awards. \n\n\n\nLynn’s professional achievements transcend the world of photography in a big way. In 1969 for Electra Records\, she created the ‘bio-disk\,’ won a Clio for one of the radio spots she produced\, and worked on the first films of recording artists to be used for promotion. She is the youngest woman member ever to be accepted into the DGA (Director’s Guild of America). In 1971\, she was a director of Joshua Television\, the first company to do video magnification for rock groups entertaining at large venues. In 1972\, she was a director for the first rock show on network television: ABC’s “In Concert”. In 1973\, Lynn directed “We’re An American Band\,” the first music documentary to be released as a theatrical short. In the mid-seventies\, Lynn stopped directing to concentrate on co-managing one of rock’s biggest bands at the time\, Grand Funk Railroad. \n\n\n\nBy the early 80’s\, Lynn expanded her creativity to become the first ‘optic-music’ artist. Using the a.k.a. Will Powers\, she wrote and produced the album “Dancing For Mental Health” released on Island Records. Working with acclaimed musicians Sting\, Steve Winwood\, Todd Rundgren and Nile Rodgers\, her debut album won critical acclaim\, and the single\, Kissing With Confidence\, reached #3 on the British charts. As was her plan\, the videos from the album that she produced and directed became more than commercials for the record. They were used by the United States Department of Labor to inspire unemployed youths\, and by the National Marriage Counsel in England. Will Powers’ videos have also been used by Harvard University to help with language instruction\, and by other schools throughout the United States for their individual teaching needs. The Museum of Modern Art in New York City has two Will Powers videos in their permanent collection. Lynn was among the first artists to do 3-dimensional computer animation\, which she used in her 1983 video\, Adventures in Success. The roots of her music came from the experience of being in a band\, The Walking Wounded\, while attending the University of Michigan\, where she graduated in 3 years Magna Cum Laude with a B.A. in both English and Psychology. \n\n\n\nLynn considers herself a self-taught artist and entrepreneur. Others consider her a true pioneer in numerous areas of the arts as well as in business. She was the founder of the first photo agency to focus on celebrity portraiture\, representing the work of over two hundred worldwide photographers. Established in 1976\, when news photography was what photo agencies focused on\, Lynn seemed to know before others that the magazine appetite would change from world events to coverage of the biggest names in entertainment. Part of founding the agency was to make more photographers aware of the importance in copyright. For the past 4 years she has been fighting a legal battle with the Warhol Foundation to help ensure that the copyright law does not become so diluted by the definition of fair use that visual artists lose the rights to their work. This has been a crusade of standing up for rights\, and it paid off when the High Court in May ruled in her favor\, deciding that Andy Warhol had used a photo of hers of Prince as the basis for a painting without the proper permissions or copyrights. Chronicle Books included her in the 2017 publication of 200 Women Who Will Change the Way You See the World. \n\n\n\nThe wide range of Lynn’s talents\, skills and achievements are products of a belief she holds constant: Creativity is based on breaking limiting thought patterns\, busting through fear\, taking risks\, and persistently working hard toward your goals\, if the individual wants to maximize their potential for feeling they have lived life fully. Currently\, among other projects\, Lynn has been painting. But the one thing she never has stopped doing since she was eight years old is making images with her camera. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearn more: Website / Facebook / Instagram \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open for show @ 7:00pm / Show @ 8:00pm\n\n\n\nSEATED SHOW | ALL AGES\n\n\n\nLocation: TACAW\, 400 Robinson St\, Basalt\, CO 81621\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: TACAW URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/lynn-goldsmith/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/A-Conversation-with-Lynn-Goldsmith_640by360.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20230708T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20230708T200000 DTSTAMP:20260605T182350 CREATED:20230426T012907Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230710T160524Z UID:11134-1688846400-1688846400@tacaw.org SUMMARY:Jenny And The Mexicats DESCRIPTION:Jenny And The Mexicats\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW @ 8:00PM / DOORS @ 7:00PM \n\n\n\n$21 MEMBER / $25 ADVANCE / $35 DAY OF \n\n\n\nSTANDING ROOM SHOW / AGES: 18+ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT Jenny And The Mexicats\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJenny and the Mexicats it’s a fusion of nationalities and personalities\, a band that has a very particular history. The band had its beginnings in Madrid as Pachucos y la Princesa\, in June 2008. It all started when Icho (double bass) invited Jenny to live in Madrid. Jenny in her 20s had come to the right place. Icho called the best guitarist he knew\, Pantera a guitarist with very versatile flamenco technique\, they had played together for many years in a rockabilly and punk band in their hometown in Mexico. \n\n\n\nPantera proposed a colleague that he played with in the world of flamenco and he played the cajon. David\, an extraordinary Spanish cajon player. And that’s how they all got together. That’s how a little adventure of an English girl started and gives rise to Jenny and the Mexicats. \n\n\n\nTheir first concert was Wonderland\, a small festival that generates money to help cancer research in the UK\, in August 2008. The roots that this new sound carried\, made Jenny start to compose a lot and so Jenny and the Mexicats started to rehearse in the place where everyone had met … a flamenco tablao\, las carboneras. \n\n\n\nJenny no hablaba español y David no hablaba inglés\, así que sólo se entendían musicalmente y con un poco de la ayuda de los dos mexicanos traduciendo. En Inglaterra Jenny and the Mexicats empezaron a llamar la atención y se dieron cuenta que habían creado algo especial. \n\n\n\nOn their return to Spain they realized that the fusion also worked very well there\, so they started playing on the street and later in all the bars around Spain. After signing with a record label in England\, Jenny and the Mexicats decided to choose to be independent to have more control over the band’s sound musically and to grow in a more real and natural way. This is how MEXICAT RECORDS was born. \n\n\n\nThey recorded their first album ‘JENNY AND THE MEXICATS’ in the summer of 2011 in Madrid and moved to Mexico City in 2012. With this production they managed to obtain a Gold record. This record material contains a mix of songs in Spanish and English\, classics of their material such as Heaven Knows and Starting Something\, as well as three hits in Spanish: Verde Más Allá\, Me Voy a Ir and Flor\, with which they managed to bring the name of the band to everybody attention. \n\n\n\nIn 2014 they released their second album ‘OME’ and the first single Labios was part of the soundtrack for the movie “Amor de mis Amores” directed by Manolo Caro. The album has new songs with all the Mexicat spirit and mixes great rhythms\, a lot of energy and moments of sensitivity. \n\n\n\nIn Frenético Ritmo and Boulevard the Mexican influences are noticed\, there is even an energetic song dedicated to their dogs Sasha and Esteban. David’s voice can be listen in songs like Duele al Caminar\, Labios and Boulevard. \n\n\n\nThe last song on the album ‘Back to Basics’ demonstrates Jenny’s simplest and most emotional way of composing\, alone on her guitar. It should be noted that all the art on the album was designed by Pantera. \n\n\n\nA musical combination that mixes rhythms of jazz\, rockabilly\, folk\, flamenco\, reggae\, are Veracruz\, country and cumbia. Which gives Jenny and the Mexicats a unique\, practically inimitable personality. \n\n\n\nLearn more about Jenny And The Mexicats: Website / Facebook / Instagram / Youtube / Spotify \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open for show @ 7:00PM / Show @ 8:00PM\n\n\n\nSTANDING ROOM SHOW | AGES: 18+\n\n\n\nLocation: TACAW\, 400 Robinson St\, Basalt\, CO 81621\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: TACAW URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/jenny-and-the-mexicats/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Jenny-And-The-Mexicats_640by360.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20230701T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20230701T200000 DTSTAMP:20260605T182350 CREATED:20220120T185756Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230703T031545Z UID:5958-1688241600-1688241600@tacaw.org SUMMARY:Salsa Night DESCRIPTION:Salsa Night\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors: 7:30pm // Lessons: 8:00pm // Social: 9:00PM \n\n\n\n$20 \n\n\n\nTHIS IS A DANCING EVENT / 21+ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT SALSA NIGHT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGenre: Dance \n\n\n\nPresented in partnership with Mezcla Socials \n\n\n\nEnjoy an evening of Latin music and dancing at the TACAW as we host our Salsa\, Bachata\, Cumbia and Merengue music plays all night long.

In 2011\, they garnered further acclaim by winning a Grammy (their second such nomination) for their self–produced release El Existential on Nat Geo Music which the Wall Street Journal called “Latin music both new and traditional…vibrant fusions that transcend easy classification.” \n\n\n\nThe band’s incendiary live show\, declared by NPR as “seamless whenever and wherever they’re on stage” has brought the band to major festivals and venues internationally including Bonnaroo\, Austin City Limits\, North Sea Jazz Festival (Curacao and Rotterdam) and Lowlands in the Netherlands\, Kennedy Center\, London’s O2 Arena\, Montreal Jazz Festival\, WOMEX\, WOMAD\, Tempo Latino (France) as well as two tours to Kuwait and Iraq to entertain US troops and a recent tour in Pakistan and Qatar. Their diverse spectrum of devoted fans speaks to the ensemble’s universal appeal beyond just Latin or world music. \n\n\n\nIn addition\, they have served as the backing band for and collaborated on several occasions with the late\, great\, legendary Prince (ALMA Awards on ABC\, Golden Globes\, CBS Super Bowl Bash\, 21 Nights in London)\, Fania All–Stars pianist Larry Harlow\, Sheila–E\, GZA of Wu–Tang Clan\, Maceo Parker\, Curt Kirkwood of the Meat Puppets\, Ruben Ramos\, GZA of the Wu–Tang Clan\, cult–hero Daniel Johnston\, indie rock standouts Spoon\, Los Lobos and many others. In 2015 and 2016 they continued to tour the globe with club and festival dates in support of their 6th studio release\, Problemas (Blue Corn Music)\, produced by Multi–Grammy award winner Steve Berlin of Los Lobos and released in late 2015.  \n\n\n\nTheir seventh full-length album American Music Vol. VII was released in March 2019 on Blue Corn Music. The very title of the record takes on definitions of identity\, borders and who is illegal or “other.” In presenting their unique multi-ethnic musical mix to audiences over the years\, Grupo were constantly challenged by “the concept of identity\, citizenship\, and the nationality of music\,” especially in the press and music industry. Yet\, as they attest\, in many ways “music is the ultimate assimilator\, crossing borders and cultures and mutating to represent the experiences of its performers.”   \n\n\n\n“We maintain that regardless of language\, our music is ‘American Music’ because we are from here. Our music is a product of our circumstances and we can still celebrate ethnic and cultural heritage while asserting our identity as Americans and sons of this country.” \n\n\n\nThe band has appeared on the nationally syndicated PBS show Austin City Limits 3 times (2016\, 2014\, 2007)\, and their music has been featured in a variety of films and TV shows including Breaking Bad (AMC)\, Weeds (Showtime)\, Frankie & Grace (Netflix)\, Law & Order (NBC) as well as the John Sayles’ film Casa de los Babies. \n\n\n\nLearn more: Website / Facebook / Instagram / YouTube / Spotify \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open for show @ 7:00pm / Show @ 8:00pm\n\n\n\nSTANDING ROOM SHOW | AGES: 18+\n\n\n\nLocation: TACAW\, 400 Robinson St\, Basalt\, CO 81621\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: TACAW URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/grupo-fantasma/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Grupo-Fantasma_640by360.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20230628T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20230628T180000 DTSTAMP:20260605T182350 CREATED:20230309T020626Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230621T183224Z UID:10317-1687975200-1687975200@tacaw.org SUMMARY:gala DESCRIPTION:TACAW’S INAUGURAL GALA\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWEDNESDAY\, JUNE 28\, 2023 // AT TACAW\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSilent Auction Now Open\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE GALA HOST COMMITTEESam Augustine\, Emily & Kelly Boggs\, Lori & Bob Brandon\, Dick Carter\, Mary Conover & Kenyon Fields\, Fidel Duke\, Daniel Shaw & Isa Catto\, Marcia & Don Flaks\, Michael Lipkin & Jody Guralnick\, Jack & Diane Kennedy\, Jeffrey Orsulak & Rachel Shechtman\, Kirstie Steiner & John Groccia\, and Oakstar Bankinvite you to TACAW’s Inaugural Gala featuring four-time Grammy-winner \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSARAH JAROSZ\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnjoy a cocktail hour\, dinner by Epicure\, and additional performances by comedian Adam Cayton-Holland\, Dance Aspen\, and more.   \n\n\n\nReception starts at 6pm | Dinner* begins at 7pm on lower Amphitheater Lawn \n\n\n\nAttire: Artistic Cocktail \n\n\n\nA paddle raise and silent auction will take place to support TACAW’s mission of presenting exceptional performing arts\, cultural events\, and thought-provoking programming. \n\n\n\n*Wear shoes appropriate for walking on grass* \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nINDIVIDUAL TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n$375 per person // $200 tax-deductible \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHANK YOU TO OUR SPONSOR URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/gala/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/GALA-Final_640by360.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20230623T203000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20230623T203000 DTSTAMP:20260605T182350 CREATED:20230515T231432Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230626T164816Z UID:11412-1687552200-1687552200@tacaw.org SUMMARY:Pride Dance Party hosted by Pattie Gonia DESCRIPTION:Pride Dance Party hosted by Pattie Gonia\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW @ 8:30PM / DOORS @ 8:00PM \n\n\n\n$16 MEMBER / $20 ADVANCE / $30 DAY OF \n\n\n\nSTANDING ROOM SHOW | AGES: 21+ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT Pride Dance Party hosted by Pattie Gonia\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGenre: Dance Party \n\n\n\nPattie Gonia (she/they) is a drag queen\, environmentalist and advocate for inclusivity and diversity in the outdoors.

Pattie Gonia founded the Pattie Gonia Community which exists to uplift LGBTQIA+ people and allies in the outdoors through events\, Pride festivals and outdoor programming. She’s also the co-founder of the Outdoorist Oath– a non-profit that works for intersectional action for planet\, inclusion and adventure. Recently\, Pattie founded the Queer Outdoor and Environmental Job Board – a free tool queer individuals can use to get hired and therefore diversify the fields. \n\n\n\nTogether with her community\, they’ve fundraised over 1 million dollars for LGBTQIA+\, BIPOC and environmental non-profits\, completed thousands of miles of hiking and backpacking and raised awareness about the ongoing environmental crisis through their film projects like Birds Tell Us & Everything to Lose. Pattie’s drag itself is a personal journey of self identity\, sustainability\, and queering traditional masculine outdoor narratives to explore the natural world. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open for show @ 8:00pm / Show @ 8:30pm\n\n\n\nSTANDING ROOM SHOW / AGES: 21+\n\n\n\nLocation: TACAW\, 400 Robinson St\, Basalt\, CO 81621\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: TACAW URL:https://tacaw.org/calendar/pride-dance-party-hosted-by-pattie-gonia/ LOCATION:TACAW\, 400 Robinson Street\, Basalt\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://tacaw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Pattie-Gonia_640-360.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
