* DIXIE CATSDIXIE CATS

Time: 7:00 pm

THE DIXIE CATS - Fri, Jul 7, 2023 - 7:00 PM - FREE Admission: Tickets Required - The Dixie Cats are the oldest continually functioning traditional-jazz band in the Tucson area and continue to perform as headliners of the Phoenix Jazz Society, the Arizona Jazz Society, and many casinos throughout the state. This group of veteran players emulates the sounds of jazz from the 1920’s and 1930’s. The instrumentation of cornet (John Reitz), clarinet (John Snavely), trombone (Jim Nickerson), banjo (Al Farmer), drums (Joel Hopco), and bass (Wade Poteet) is the same as that of the early New Orleans jazz groups such as Nick Larocca’s Original Dixieland Jazz Band, the Buddy Bolden and Louis Armstrong bands. Their selection of tunes crosses the most popular list of the first thirty-five years of the century, and is performed in a great, swinging style.

* LARRY AND JOELARRY AND JOE

Time: 7:00 pm

LARRY AND JOE - Venezuelan-Appalachian Fusion Duo - Tue, Jul 25, 2023 - 7:00 PM - Tickets: $15.00 - Larry & Joe were destined to make music together. Larry Bellorín hails from Monagas, Venezuela and is a legend of Llanera music. Joe Troop is from North Carolina and is a GRAMMY-nominated bluegrass and oldtime musician. Currently based in the Triangle of North Carolina, both men are versatile multi-instrumentalists and singer-songwriters on a mission to show that music has no borders. As a duo they perform a fusion of Venezuelan and Appalachian folk music on harp, banjo, cuatro, fiddle, guitar, maracas and whatever else they decide to throw in the van. The program they offer features a distinct blend of their musical inheritances and traditions as well as storytelling about the ways that music and social movements coalesce. Larry Bellorín grew up in Punta de Mata in the state of Monagas, Venezuela. His mother, a poor farmworker, raised him. By age 6, he became a shoe shiner and built a faithful clientele by singing as he polished, taking requests for the popular Vallenatos of the day. He eventually caught the attention of a local music educator who invited him to study at the city’s premiere music school. Larry’s first instrument was the cuatro, a 4-string guitar with Spanish roots central to the Venezuelan identity and typically the first instrument a folk musician is taught there. Cuatristas strum out complex polyrhythms at dizzying speeds as accompaniment for vocalists and harpists. Larry quickly excelled and by age 11 was supporting himself through music alone. He soon became proficient on guitar, electric bass, mandolin and maracas as well. By age 13, he was well-versed in the folk music of his region (valse, pasaje, joropo, música oriental) and was honored as first cuatrista for the local Casa de Cultura. In 2012 Venezuela began to collapse, and it became impossible to maintain a music school. Poverty and violence reached unprecedented extremes, and new political realities threatened Larry and his family’s lives. He decided to go to the United States in search of work and asylum for his family. He arrived with only thirty dollars and slept on the floor of an unfurnished room while doing construction day labor. His wife and young daughter eventually joined him. Having faced political persecution, they were able to open a case for asylum. Joe Troop is a multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter hailing originally from Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The founder of GRAMMY-nominated stringband Che Apalache, Joe’s music is deeply inspired by his decade living in Buenos Aires and traveling throughout Latin America. When the pandemic unexpectedly landed him back in North Carolina, he spent 2020 learning direct action from stalwart organizers. In 2021 he channeled that energy into his homecoming album Borrowed Time. The record was co-produced with Jason Richmond (The Avett Brothers, Branford Marsalis) and features luminaries like Béla Fleck (who produced Che Apalache’s GRAMMY-nominated album), Abigail Washburn, Tim O’Brien, and Charlie Hunter, but the visceral songwriting and fine-crafted instrumentals speak for themselves. Joe's music reflects both his time spent living abroad as well as his upbringing in the North Carolina Piedmont. Now based in Durham, he leads various ensembles which play his original music.

But then a new class of country music artists came in the 90’s, led by Alan Jackson was known as the neo-traditionalist movement. It came fast and furious in the 90’s with such acts as George Strait, Garth Brooks, The Judd’s, Ricky Van Shelton, and Clint Black. All came with a reminiscent sound of the past and the world was ready for it. Alan Jackson's music is timeless, and it is the true heart of country music. Alan Jackson has had 66 Top 10 Hits, 17 ACM Awards, 35 number ones, 16 CMA Awards, 3 Entertainer of the Year awards, and 6 Top Male Vocalist Awards. All this from a Newnan, Georgia boy who was raised in a family home built around his daddy’s tool shed. His music honors country music’s heroes, country values, subtle emotions and universal truths. He is a steadfast standard bearer and a man of incredible talent. Enjoy this tribute produced by Vince Gonzales with songs such as Chasing That Neon Rainbow, Where Were You, Loves Got a Hold on You, Chattahoochee, and so much more!
