SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:PCK Reclaiming the City Film Screening | Cheonggyecheon Medley
DESCRIPTION:This event is in coordination with our PCK conference\, Reclaiming the City. Full conference details available here: https://myumi.ch/xm1XG\n\nWe welcome the public to the opportunity to view Director Kelvin Kyung Kun Park's film as featured in the conference's Artist Talk\, CHEONGGYECHEON MEDLEY! The film screening will be presented through a virtual format.\n\n2010 | 80 Minutes | Kelvin Kyung Kun Park | Documentary/History. NR.\nFree | Open to the public | In Korean with English subtitles\n\nThe narrator writes a letter to the ghost of his grandfather wondering if his recurring childhood nightmare of rusted metallic image is related to the family history. After running a scrap metal factory in Tokyo during World War II\, his grandfather ended up in Cheonggyecheon of Seoul where rundown small scale metal workshops still exist amidst the gentrifying city. Drawing clues from fragments of dreams and myths relating to the metal\, the film reveals the secret alchemy of third world modernity in Cheonggyecheon where these obsolete hand laborers still survive.\n\n--\n\nDirections:\nAttendees must first register for a free Michigan Theater Customer Account at any time through the Michigan Theater website. During this initial registration\, you will not be connected to any particular film.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:“I Know Who Caused COVID-19\":  Pandemics and Xenophobia
DESCRIPTION:Sander Gilman\, Emory University\nZhou Xun\, University of Essex\nwith Alaa Murad\, Brandeis University\n\nOne of the most evident manifestation of the present pandemic has been the blaming of traditional (and non-traditional) out-groups for causing or spreading the virus.  The Chinese\, Muslims\, Ultra-Orthodox Jews\, American White Nationalists among other groups have been blamed.  Central to our recently published book “I Know Who Caused COVID-19\":  Pandemics and Xenophobia (Reaktion Press / University of Chicago Press) is the question of what happens when such groups are blamed and simultaneously at fault?  Dr. Gilman and Dr. Zhou examined a series of case studies but closed our book on January 20\, 2021.  The story continues past that date to the present and they will address both the first year as well as the present Delta surge in the light of our model of xenophobia and pandemics in this symposium with the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies and the Jewish Muslim Research Network.\n\nAdvanced Registration Required: https://myumi.ch/Axw1y\n\nDr ZHOU\, Xun is the reader in History at the University of Essex. Her research interests range from medicine\, health intervention and delivery in modern China to nutrition\, food and narcotics\, and more broadly the political history of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) as well as questions of race and ethnicity. She also have a track record in trans-cultural/global studies and have built up a profile in the history of global health. She is the author of The People’s Health: Health Intervention and Delivery in Mao’s China\, 1949-1983 (McGill-Queen University Press\, 2020)\, the first systematic study on health care and medicine in Mao’s China. From the onset of the Covid-19 crisis\, she has been regularly interviewed by major media outlets from the BBC to the Financial Times\, the Guardian\, the New York Times\, and Aljazeera\, to name a few\, to comment on the outbreak in Wuhan and the Chinese health system as well as to speak on historical correlates of the global pandemic.\n\n\n\nSander L. Gilman is a distinguished professor emeritus of the Liberal Arts and Sciences as well as emeritus Professor of Psychiatry at Emory University. A cultural and literary historian\, he is the author or editor of over one hundred books. His “I Know Who Caused COVID-19”: Pandemics and Xenophobia (with Zhou Xun) appeared with Reaktion Press (London) in 2021\; his most recent edited volume is The Oxford Handbook of Music and the Body (with Youn Kim) published in 2019 with Oxford University Press. He is the author of the basic study of the visual stereotyping of the mentally ill\, Seeing the Insane\, published by John Wiley and Sons in 1982 (reprinted: 1996 and 2014) as well as the standard study of Jewish Self-Hatred\, the title of his Johns Hopkins University Press monograph of 1986\, which is still in print. For twenty-five years he was a member of the humanities and medical faculties at Cornell University where he held the Goldwin Smith Professorship of Humane Studies. For six years he held the Henry R. Luce Distinguished Service Professorship of the Liberal Arts in Human Biology at the University of Chicago. For four years he was a distinguished professor of the Liberal Arts and Medicine at the University of Illinois at Chicago where he created the ‘Humanities Laboratory.’ During 1990-1991 he served as the Visiting Historical Scholar at the National Library of Medicine\, Bethesda\, MD\; 1996-1997 as a fellow of the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences\, Stanford\, CA\; 2000-2001 as a Berlin prize fellow at the American Academy in Berlin\; 2004-5 as the Weidenfeld Visiting Professor of European Comparative Literature at Oxford University\; 2007 to 2012 as Professor at the Institute in the Humanities\, Birkbeck College\; 2010 to 2013 as a Visiting Research Professor at The University of Hong Kong\; and recently as the Alliance Professor of History at the Ludwig Maximilian University\, Munich (2017-18). He has been a visiting professor at numerous universities in North America\, South Africa\, The United Kingdom\, Germany\, Israel\, China\, and New Zealand. He was president of the Modern Language Association in 1995. He has been awarded a Doctor of Laws (honoris causa) at the University of Toronto in 1997\, elected an honorary professor of the Free University in Berlin (2000)\, an honorary member of the American Psychoanalytic Association (2007)\, and made a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (2016).\n\nAlaa Murad is a PhD candidate in history at Brandeis University focusing on the Middle East and North Africa. Her current research focuses on the appropriation of classical and medieval Islamic texts in Arabic popular history and historical fiction during the19th-century. She is interested in the didactic aspects and socio-political characteristics of nahḍa intellectualism as well as in the competing historical claims over national and religious identities emergent during the same period. Murad holds a Joint MA in Near Eastern and Judaic Studies and Conflict and Coexistence Studies from Brandeis University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Animal/Vegetable/Mineral Art Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:In this RC Art Gallery exhibit\, Residential College and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design Professor of Art Susan Crowell presents\, among other works\, a series of wall plaques depicting endangered species. In Professor Crowell's effort to\, \"...question our interactions with the animal world and our impact upon it\,\" she has installed images of elephants and donkeys as protagonists and antagonists in political struggle\, and polar bears as victims of global warming. \n\n\"Animal/ Vegetable/Mineral presents an occasion to speak about my most compelling interests—plants and animals--within the mineral rubrics of clay\,\" she says.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Masks are required for all attendees. Vaccination is not required but highly encouraged. All attendees must complete a short questionnaire at https://responsiblue.umich.edu/sign-in before entering East Quadrangle.\n\nSusan Crowell is Professor of Art at the University of Michigan\, where she teaches ceramics and holds a joint appointment in the Residential College and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.  A Fulbright Scholar\, she studied architectural ceramics at Centro Internazionale di Ceramica in Rome and directed and taught in the University of Michigan’s Program in Florence.  Prof. Crowell conducts research and exhibits her work locally\, nationally and internationally.  She has presented projects and exhibitions in Canada (at Banff)\, Japan (at Shigaraki and Miyazaki)\, Italy (Rome\, Venice and Florence)\, Taiwan\, Denmark and China\, as well as in France and the United States\, and she has participated in a variety of international venues and residencies.  In 2005 Crowell published I Compianti Sul Christo Morto: Lamentation Groupings in Northern Italy to illuminate the distinguished history of ceramic materials in Quattrocento devotional and didactic sculpture\, and to bring an understanding of their use and potential to contemporary ceramics practitioners. In April of 2016 Prof. Crowell exhibited her work in the conservatories of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens at the University of Michigan\, and in May of 2017\, at the Alden Dow Gardens in Midland\, MI. In 2018 she conducted residencies and research at the Jean Noble Parsons Center for the Study of Art and Science in northern Michigan\, and at A.I.R. Vallauris in Vallauris\, France\, where she exhibited her work in La chapelle de la place Lisnard that October.\n \nFor ten years\, Crowell’s research and artistic practice has focused upon pollen forms and the process of pollination.  Deploying her appreciation of the role of technology in revealing the natural world\, she applies the science and aesthetics of botany and apiculture toward the creation of ceramic sculpture\, using cast and hand-built forms.  In doing so\, Prof. Crowell presents an expanded view of pollen within the problematics of industrialized honey production\, global commerce in apicultural products\, and genetically modified crops.. More recently\, she has created Thinning the Herd\, an installation of animal forms that addresses endangered species\, and Oppositional\, a commentary on contemporary political behavior in the United States.

DESCRIPTION:Buying Home\, Selling America: the House Catalog\, 1906-1966 brings to light the collection of house catalogs in the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library’s Special Collections. Focusing primarily on the kit house industry of Michigan and the Midwest\, the catalogs provide a portal to explore multiple themes\, such as\, the Michigan house catalog industry\, changing architectural styles\, the business of selling homes\, societal and cultural implications\, and domestic technologies. We hope the exhibit is not simply a nostalgic view back\, but raises awareness of our domestic surroundings today and compels us to ask questions as we look to the future.\n\nThe exhibit is available in the Clark Library (second floor Hatcher) during Hatcher Library hours.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Clinical Brown Bag: When I become You: How small shifts in language promote self-control
DESCRIPTION:Although we all have an inner monologue that we engage in from time to time\, people often refer to themselves in strikingly different ways when they engage in this introspective process. Whereas people typically use 1st person singular pronouns to refer to themselves during introspection (e.g.\, Why am I feeling this way?)\, they at times use their own name and other non-1st-person pronouns as well (e.g.\, Why is Ethan feeling this way or Why are you feeling this way?). In this talk I will review evidence from a multi-disciplinary line of research\, which suggests that far from representing a simple quirk of speech or epiphenomenon\, these linguistic shifts serve a powerful and potentially primitive self-control function\, enhancing people’s ability to reason wisely and control their thoughts\, feelings and behaviors under stress.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:When This is All Over / Cuando Esto Termine
DESCRIPTION:Los Angeles-based artist Shizu Saldamando was born in 1978 to parents of Mexican-American and Japanese-American descent and raised in San Francisco’s Mission District. Saldamando merges painting and collage\, often using origami paper\, glitter\, or gold leaf in her compositions\, many of which are painted on wood or found surfaces. Her modern portraits and innovative methods challenge social constructs pertaining to individual and collective identity within the broader context of the “American Portrait.” Saldamando’s visual biographies\, which use her friends\, family\, and fellow members of the Chicanx creative community in Los Angeles\, create new ways of seeing and being seen.\n\nOn November 2\, 6:30-8pm\, Shizu Saldamando talks to curator Amanda Krugliak about Shizu's artistic practice and her exhibition *When This is All Over / Cuando Esto Termine*.\n\nAbout the artist: Shizu Saldamando is an LA based mixed media artist with an emphasis on portraiture. She received her B.A. from UCLA’s School of Arts and Architecture and her M.F.A. from California Institute of the Arts. Her work has been exhibited both locally and internationally and experiments with a broad range of surfaces and materials. Saldamando’s practice employs tattooing\, video\, painting and drawing on canvas\, wood\, paper\, and cloth. The work functions as homage\, as well as documentation\, of friends and peers within artistic and musical subcultures around the Los Angeles metropolitan area. She is currently represented by Charlie James Gallery in Los Angeles.\n\nShizu Saldamando is the 2021 Paula and Edwin Sidman Fellow in the Arts at the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:UJIMA: Collective Work and Responsibility at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit focuses on the concept of Ujima (collective work and responsibility in Swahili) as it pertains to activism on the campus of the University of Michigan over the years. By seeing how collective actions can lead to powerful movements\, the exhibit presents a chronological display demonstrating the importance of calling for change. \nThe majority of photos and articles originate from campus resources\, including the Bentley Historical Library\, the Michigan Daily's archives and other original materials. \nUJIMA is dedicated to the students\, faculty\, staff\, and alumni of the University of Michigan who envisioned and exemplified the principle of Ujima to bring about a more equitable and inclusive university through their thoughts and actions. \nThere is also a virtual audio/visual tour of the exhibit which can be accessed at:myumi.ch/7ZQn0

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral and Experimental Economics (SBEE) Seminar: On Fooling Yourself: The Mechanics of Motivated Reasoning
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:   People have a remarkable talent for reaching conclusions about themselves\, the world\, and their place in it that flatter themselves. The tendency has many names: rationalization\, wishful thinking\, self-deception\, defensive processing—but the main overarching term is motivated reasoning.  In this talk\, I discuss psychological perspectives on motivated reasoning. I touch on the variety of motivations that underlie people’s judgments (or whether any motivation does at all)\, the reach of motivated reasoning\, and finally potential psychological mechanics that support it. \n\n(To attend this online event\, please complete the form to receive email instructions and announcements for this and future SBEE Seminars.)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Water Diplomacy in the Middle East: Israel\, Jordan and Palestine
DESCRIPTION:Two day workshop on Water Diplomacy in the Middle East: Israel\, Jordan and Palestine run by Victoria Pebbles.\n\nPopular news coverage of the Middle East rarely touches on issues of water. Perceptions of ubiquitous chaos prevail\, yet people who live there must carry on with their daily lives where water is central to meeting basic needs. Where does the water in Israel\, Jordan and Palestine come from and how are water resources in this region managed? This workshop will address these questions and explore the concept of “water diplomacy” and its application in this region of the Middle East. They will gain insights into the laws\, institutions and other means of governance that impact water resource management and how they are working. Equipped with this information\, students will engage in rotational breakouts where they will represent each of the parties (Israel\, Jordan and Palestine) and be tasked with identifying mechanisms that could be implemented to enable more sustainable water management in the region. \n\n*Participants are required to attend both sessions. The sign up will close on November 1 at noon. \n**Should sign up exceed the capacity\, participants will be selected at random via lottery. \nPre workshop readings: will be provided a week before the workshop.Lunch and snacks will be provided.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Cognitive Science Seminar Series: Inner Speech and Conscious Reasoning
DESCRIPTION:The Cognitive Science Seminar Series welcomes guest presenter Wade Munroe\, postdoctoral research fellow\, Weinberg Institute for Cognitive Science. Wade will present \"Thinking Through Talking to Yourself: Inner Speech as a Vehicle of Conscious Reasoning.\"\n\nABSTRACT\nOur conscious thought\, at least at times\, seems suffused with language. We may experience deliberation as if we were ‘talking in our head’\, thus using inner speech to verbalize our premises\, lemmas\, and conclusions without employing our vocal tract to generate explicit utterances. The claim that we can consciously reason through inner speech—that is\, that inner speech can serve as the representational vehicle for conscious reasoning—is\, prima facie\, intuitively compelling. Even those who are dubious of the claim offer explanations for why it may erroneously appear as if inner speech ‘utterances’ can constitute occurrent propositional attitudes\, like occurrent judgements\, suppositions\, etc. (cf. Carruthers 2011). However\, intuitions notwithstanding\, the claim that we can consciously reason through inner speech takes considerable work to defend. \n\nPeter Langland-Hassan (2014) has forcefully argued that\, insofar as inner speech possesses a sensory\, vocal character\, it cannot carry the sort of propositional contents required to function as\, say\, an occurrent judgment in conscious deliberation. In this talk\, I argue that\, pace Langland-Hassan\, an inner speech utterance can be the bearer of propositional contents such that it can function as an occurrent judgment. As I demonstrate\, the functional role a mental state plays in working memory is determined in a flexible and context sensitive manner by metacognitive monitoring and control procedures. An inner speech utterance functions as an occurrent judgment (and can\, thus\, function as a premise\, lemma\, or conclusion in a line of conscious reasoning) when it is experienced with a level of certainty that exceeds one’s threshold of confidence for acceptance. In virtue of an agent experiencing an inner speech utterance with a sufficient level of certainty\, the utterance plays the functional role of an occurrent judgment through\, e.g.\, terminating inquiry and causing overt actions (like overtly asserting the words rehearsed in inner speech) and further mental states (like further inner speech utterances).\n\nAll cognitive science seminars this semester are virtual. For Zoom passcode information\, or to be added to the seminar distribution list\, please email cogsci-seminar-requests@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Engineering Solutions to Surgical Pain Management
DESCRIPTION:Opioid prescribing for pain after surgery is a common practice in western medicine. These medications are an important tool for pain management\, however excessive opioid prescribing\, especially after surgery\, can lead to long-term dependence and medication diversion in our communities. This is a dangerous trend that has contributed to the rise of the opioid epidemic in the United States. Dr. Englesbe and Alex Hallway have spent the last 5 years studying these trends and developing solutions to reduce excessive opioid prescribing in acute care. This talk details their efforts to improve practice at a local and state level through policy\, innovation\, and interdisciplinary collaboration.\n\nAlex Hallway is a Research Area Specialist affiliated with the Michigan Opioid Prescribing Engagement Network and the Michigan Surgical Quality Collaborative (MSQC). Alex studied Human Biology and Supply Chain Management at Michigan State University. He has worked on patient care and quality improvement initiatives at Michigan Medicine since 2017. As the Pain-control Optimization Pathway Lead\, Alex works with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and the MSQC to promote surgical pain control innovation in Michigan hospitals. Alex also leads the MSQC Prehabilitation program\, which aims to collect novel preoperative data elements and optimize patient health prior to surgery. Alex is passionate about surgical process optimization using technology and lean thinking. He enjoys working at the intersection of quality improvement and research and has published his work in journals such as JAMA Surgery\, The Journal of the American College of Surgeons\, and JAMA Network OPEN.\n\nMichael Englesbe\, MD\, FACS is the Cyrenus G. Darling Sr.\, MD and Cyrenus G. Darling Jr.\, MD Professor of Surgery at the University of Michigan in the Section of Transplantation Surgery. Dr. Englesbe received his undergraduate degree at Yale University in New Haven\, Connecticut in 1993. He went on to obtain his medical degree in 1997 from the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School and completed his general surgery residency at the University of Michigan Health System in 2004. From 2000 to 2002\, Dr. Englesbe did a surgical research post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Washington Medical Center in Seattle\, Washington.  Dr. Englesbe specializes in kidney and liver transplantation in adults and children. He has a specific expertise in portal hypertension in children and adults.\n\nThis seminar series is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS): Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.

SUMMARY:Performance:Rhiannon Giddens with France Turrisi
DESCRIPTION:By purchasing a ticket you agree that you and your guests will comply with all laws\, orders\, ordinances\, regulations and health and safety guidance adopted by the State of Michigan\, the County of Washtenaw and The Ark\, including any guidelines in place at the time of the show. Attendees who do not comply will be asked to leave. Policies will be updated as circumstances and requirements change in our community. Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show. \n\nThe acclaimed musician Rhiannon Giddens uses her art to excavate the past and reveal bold truths about our present. A MacArthur “Genius Grant” recipient\, Giddens co-founded the Grammy Award-winning Carolina Chocolate Drops\, and she has been nominated for six additional Grammys for her work as a soloist and collaborator. She was most recently nominated for her collaboration with multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi\, there is no Other (2019). Giddens’s latest album\, They’re Calling Me Home\, is a twelve-track album\, recorded with Turrisi in Ireland during the recent lockdown\; it speaks of the longing for the comfort of home as well as the metaphorical “call home” of death\, which has been a tragic reality for so many during the COVID-19 crisis. Giddens’s lifelong mission is to lift up people whose contributions to American musical history have previously been erased\, and to work toward a more accurate understanding of the country’s musical origins. Pitchfork has said of her work\, “few artists are so fearless and so ravenous in their exploration\,” and Smithsonian Magazine calls her “an electrifying artist who brings alive the memories of forgotten predecessors\, white and black.” Among her many diverse career highlights\, Giddens has performed for the Obamas at the White House\, served as a Carnegie Hall Perspectives curator\, and received an inaugural Legacy of Americana Award from Nashville’s National Museum of African American History in partnership with the Americana Music Association. Her critical acclaim includes in-depth profiles by CBS Sunday Morning\, the New York Times\, the New Yorker\, and NPR’s Fresh Air\, among many others. Giddens is featured in Ken Burns’s Country Music series\, which aired on PBS in 2019\, where she speaks about the African American origins of country music. She is also a member of the band Our Native Daughters with three other black female banjo players\, Leyla McCalla\, Allison Russell\, and Amythyst Kiah\, and co-produced their debut album Songs of Our Native Daughters (2019)\, which tells stories of historic black womanhood and survival. Named Artistic Director of Silkroad in 2020\, Giddens is developing a number of new programs for the organization\, including one inspired by the history of the American transcontinental railroad and the cultures and music of its builders. She recently wrote the music for an original ballet\, Lucy Negro Redux\, for Nashville Ballet (premiered in 2019)\, and the libretto and music for an original opera\, Omar\, based on the autobiography of the enslaved man Omar Ibn Said for the Spoleto USA Festival (premieres in 2022). As an actor\, Giddens had a featured role on the television series Nashville.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Lone Bellow w. opener Early James
DESCRIPTION:*By purchasing a ticket you agree that you and your guests will comply with all laws\, orders\, ordinances\, regulations and health and safety guidance adopted by the State of Michigan\, the County of Washtenaw and The Ark\, including any guidelines in place at the time of the show. Attendees who do not comply will be asked to leave. Policies will be updated as circumstances and requirements change in our community. Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show.*\n\n\"I want it to bring comfort\,” The Lone Bellow guitarist Brian Elmquist says. “But it’s not all hard conversations. There’s a lot of light and some dancing that needs to happen.” Brian is reflecting on Half Moon Light\, the band’s highly anticipated new album.\n\nHalf Moon Light is an artistic triumph worked toward for years\, earned not by individual posturing\, but by collective determination and natural growth. With earthy three-part harmonies and songwriting as provocative as it is honest\, the trio made up of Brian\, lead vocalist Zach Williams\, and multi-instrumentalist Kanene Donehey Pipkin creates sparks that make a stranger’s life matter or bring our sense of childlike wonder roaring back. On Half Moon Light\, The Lone Bellow mix light and dark to muster a complex ode to memory\, a call for hope\, and an exercise in empathy. Anchored in the acoustic storytelling that first so endeared the band to fans and critics\, Half Moon Light also takes more chances\, experimenting with textures and instrumental fillips to create a full-bodied music experience. The result is The Lone Bellow’s most sophisticated work to date.\n\n“We try to invite as many people into the process to see what we can make together\,” Brian says. “I like that spirit and that freedom. Then\, the songs speak for themselves.”\n\nThat wholehearted embrace of collaboration defines Half Moon Light. The record marks a return to recording in New York with Aaron Dessner\, whom the band counts as both a hero and a friend. “We already had a friendship with Aaron and a strong\, shared understanding of our musical vision\,” Zach says. “It’s really important to us to be a part of a community of musicians. We like that way of making something. Aaron showed us a new way of trusting. His idea of bringing in Josh Kaufman and J.T. Bates was such a beautiful gift. The meekness that these friends brought to the table was something that we will never forget. A sense of controlled fury. Lightning in a shoebox.”\n\n“Aaron has a powerful quietness about him\,” Kanene says. “A lot of people I meet in the music industry have lots of bravado\, and it’s something I have trouble believing. Aaron doesn’t have that. He is a joy to work with. A true friend.”\n\nFor the first time\, the band stayed where they recorded\, sequestered from the world at Aaron’s studio in upstate New York. They fell asleep at night to the sound of coyotes howling and felt the freedom to fall into rabbit holes that would have otherwise been left unexplored. “We made this record in a place of joy with our friends. We were trying to do something bigger than ourselves\,” says Brian. “I think we’ve been wanting to make this record for a while now. It just hasn’t come together as perfectly as it did this time.” \n\nA lone piano launches into a hymn as the album’s intro track. The pianist is Zach’s grandmother\, playing at the funeral of her husband of 64 years––Zach’s grandfather. The hymn returns as an interlude and outro\, underscoring The Lone Bellow’s intention for 12 songs to be experienced together\, as an album. \n\nWonder––feeling it\, losing it\, finding it again––underpins the entire record. Pulsing with the trio’s signature harmonies\, the track “Wonder” is a loving call to reclaim the childlike awe and appreciation age takes away. Zach pulled from vivid childhood memories to craft the song\, which transports listeners to moments of breathlessness experienced in the everyday: cheap coffee\, backroad car rides\, pine-tree views\, and powerful songs. \n\nJubilant “I Can Feel You Dancing” rolls into a cathartic celebration. The song pays tribute to “lionhearted” free spirits with horns and soaring vocals. With a winking jungle beat\, “Good Times” tells tales Zach has collected over the years. “Some stories were told on a boat I worked on in the Caribbean in the middle of the night. Some were in old Irish pubs in Manhattan. Some were in backyards down in my hometown. Some were in a hospital bed\,” Zach says. “I wanted to shine light on the fact that there are still people living with beauty and reckless abandonment.” Delivered over intimate acoustic guitar and hushed backing instrumentation\, “Enemies” is a self-contained call and response that reconnects life-defining moments with the frustrating or tenuous present that threatens to snuff out the magic.\n\nLead single “Count On Me” reminds us to lean on one another with soul-shouting intensity. Praise for deep friendships pops up again and again throughout the album: “Friends” celebrates the relationships forged after years together in the trenches––with a musical swagger that nods to David Byrne and Tom Petty.\n\nKanene takes the lead on tour-de-force “Just Enough to Get By.” Her inimitable voice––capable of grit and smoothness––pushes through line after line with steely purpose. The performance would saunter were it not for the rage bubbling underneath. Kanene wrote the song about her mother\, who was raped at 19\, then sent away to have the baby that resulted. When she returned home\, she never spoke of what had happened until 40 years later\, when Kanene’s half-sister––the baby––found them. “I’ve met my half-sister many times. She’s wonderful and lovely and an amazing story of something never being too broken to be fixed. But my mom had to work through the trauma\,” Kanene says. “This song was me putting myself in my mom’s place\, releasing a lot of complex emotions. Anger is definitely one of them. Hurt\, frustration\, sadness. We all have experiences that could be better if we could talk about them\, but we keep them hidden.”\n\nAlbum standout “Illegal Immigrant” also features Kanene’s vocals. Brian took the lead writing the song\, which tells the true story of a mother and child separated at the U.S.-Mexico border. The chorus’s “I promised I’d find you\, wherever you are\, wherever you are / Here I am” is equal parts haunting\, heartbreaking\, and reassuring––and the unfiltered words actually spoken by the immigrant mother into a press conference microphone. Kanene sings with weighty restraint––like a parent burying their own terror so they can be their child’s rock. “I was trying to tell her story the best I could\,” Brian says. “I wanted to keep myself as far out of the equation as I could and just try to connect––to help find some compassion.” \n\nBrian also penned “Wash It Clean\,” which both Zach and Kanene point to as a favorite. Lilting with guitar and harmonica\, the song is a letter to Brian’s dad\, who passed away suddenly last year. The two had a strained relationship\, and Brian spent years trying to find some common ground. They did\, and then two months later\, his dad was gone. The band recorded the song on the one-year anniversary of Brian’s father’s death\, without Brian even realizing it at the time. “I feel like that means he was here––or in me\,” Brian says. “Working really hard to find understanding was probably one of the greatest gifts and lessons of my whole life.” \n\nThe stories behind the songs matter––but they aren’t what matters most. In the end\, The Lone Bellow’s music needs no explanation. Just listening offers a salve and a shelter. “In my own perfect little world\, I would be able to put the music out and not talk about it––just\, Here. Bye. See you next time\,” Zach says\, then laughs softly. “I do hope someone will find this music in a peaceful moment\, when they can turn it on and get lost in the story and the sound.” \n\nVIP experience available\, which includes:\n• Early entry for a premium concert view\n• Invitation to ‘The Shindig’ which includes:\n• Pre-show private acoustic performance and Q&A by The Lone Bellow \n• One (1) exclusive Shindig Color Half Moon Light vinyl\, signed by The Lone Bellow\n• One (1) exclusive ’Shindig’ canvas tote bag\n• One (1) limited edition ’Shindig’ enamel pin\n• Crowd-free merchandise shopping\n\n***VIP Price is in addition to ticket price\, select VIP Reserved or VIP GA***
