SUMMARY:Performance:Les Greene & The Swayzees
DESCRIPTION:Les Greene has energy\, enthusiasm\, and dance moves somewhere between James Brown and Elvis. He was — and remains — a tornado of energy onstage\, both vocally and physically. –Miami New Times\n\nLes Greene\, the voice of Little Richard in the recent “Elvis” movie and Grammy nominated soundtrack\, with his band The Swayzees vibrantly bring you a powerful force of roots rock n soul. With a high energy twist on the genre all while staying true to its sound this is the unique yet recognizable spin that music needs right now and hasn’t seen in some time. \n\nHailing from the vibrant musical landscape of Baltimore\, Les Greene was destined for a life steeped in rhythm and melody. From a young age\, he was drawn to the soulful sounds that permeated the streets of his hometown – the smooth jazz\, the funky grooves\, the raw emotion of blues. Greene immersed himself in the rich musical heritage of his city\, honing his craft and developing his own unique voice as a musician.\n\nAt the core of Greene's music lies a deep reverence for the traditions of soul\, but he's never been one to simply replicate the sounds of the past. Instead\, he infuses his music with a modern sensibility\, blending elements of R&B\, funk\, and jazz to create a sound that feels both timeless and fresh. His songs are a testament to the enduring power of soul music – a celebration of love\, loss\, and the human experience.\n\nBeyond his talent as a solo artist\, Greene is also known for his dynamic live performances. Whether he's commanding the stage with his soulful voice and blistering guitar solos or leading a tight-knit band through a funky groove\, Greene is a consummate entertainer\, capable of captivating audiences with his boundless energy and magnetic stage presence. His live shows are a testament to the transformative power of music – a shared experience that brings people together and leaves them uplifted and inspired.\n\nIn a world that often feels chaotic and uncertain\, Greene's music serves as a beacon of hope and healing. It's a reminder of the power of art to transcend boundaries and connect us to something greater than ourselves. With his soulful melodies and heartfelt lyrics\, Les Greene continues to touch the lives of listeners around the world\, spreading joy and inspiration wherever his music is heard. As long as there are hearts to be moved and stories to be told\, the soulful journey of Les Greene will surely continue to resonate for years to come.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Muted Volumes: Book-Objects\, Patterned Papers\, and the Closed Stacks of Buhr
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit in the Clark Library rotunda focuses on handmade decorative patterned papers when exploring books stored at the library's Buhr Offsite Shelving Facility. Decorative paper\, noticed when walking through the stack's aisles or surprising you when you casually flip through a book\, can really catch your eye. But because the Buhr stacks are closed from browsing\, the density and dimensionality of its nearly 3 million books are reduced to title searches on a screen.\n\nAs a response to these reflections\, artist and library staff member Stephanie Osorio shares her handbound unopenable book-objects as symbolic stand-ins for forgotten books at Buhr — the books that don’t get a chance to be noticed. Along with the book-objects are the carved woodblocks that made prints to decorate them. Some books from Buhr that inspired this project with their original decorated patterned papers will also be on display.\n\nView the exhibit anytime the Hatcher Library is open\, and join us for an opening reception on Thursday\, May 14th\, 5pm - 6:30pm\, for an opportunity to hear from the artist and engage with the book-objects.
