Landreth: Tumbling Wild Tour 2026 DESCRIPTION:New Music!\n\nThe Bros. Landreth are two-time JUNO Award winners from Winnipeg\, known for their blend of guitar-driven\, soulful\, blood harmony roots music. The band\, the core of which consists of brothers Dave and Joey Landreth\, has earned critical acclaim and a dedicated audience for their heartfelt songs\, inventive musicianship\, and powerful performances. From their early days attending their father's gigs as babies (\"Mom would tuck us into a bassinet and slide us under the bar tables\,\" says Dave)\, the brothers have spent a lifetime touring rock clubs\, theatres\, and music festivals across North America\, the UK\, Europe\, and Australia\, including stand-out performances at Byron Bay Blues Festival in Australia and Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival in Los Angeles. In 2023\, a banner year for the band\, Joey and Dave became Grammy-winning songwriters when Bonnie Raitt’s cover of their song\, Made Up Mind (from their first album\, Let it Lie)\, earned the Grammy for Americana Performance of the Year. The recognition was a fitting nod from one of their musical heroes\, as their own music draws inspiration from the well-worn records of their childhood — Bonnie Raitt's blues\, Little Feat's funky country-rock\, Ry Cooder's eclectic instrumentals\, Lyle Lovett's twangy traditionalism — culminating in a sound that salutes the past while planting its flag firmly in the present.\n\nDrawing on the energy of their recent live shows and a newfound sense of creative purpose\, The Bros. Landreth returned to the studio for their fourth full-length album\, Dog Ear. This record captures the spontaneous and collaborative spirit of their touring band\, which includes drummer Roman Clarke and producer Murray Pulver\, and marks a new\, more effortless approach to songwriting. The band describes the album as a deeply personal and emotionally resonant work\, exploring themes of family and the quest for stability amidst the itinerant life of a touring musician\, and says it's \"really about trying to figure out what it means to be a consistent force in the lives of the people you care about.\" With songs like the title track written for their children\, the album captures a raw and focused energy in the studio\, featuring a handful of magical first takes and special collaborations with pop vocalist Begonia\, keyboardist Glenn Patscha\,and a powerful guest vocal performance from their longtime hero\, Bonnie Raitt\, who appears on two tracks (Knuckles\, Half Moon Eyes).

Culture facilitates human interaction by providing meaning to lived experience. Accounting for culture in both theories and methods potentially advances the study of health by connecting the macro and micro levels of human experience. Yet\, culture should be understood as dynamic and complex. It fundamentally shapes individuals and simultaneously is shaped by individuals. The importance of systematically attending to culture includes topics of values\, language\, immigration\, and society.\n\nTheories and methods that incorporate culture hold great potential for advancing the understanding of health outcomes and health trajectories in various global contexts.\n\nThe speakers for this series will focus on various aspects of culture and diverse groups living in the U.S. and across the globe to address the ways in which attending to culture helps clarify and overcome challenges to good health.\n\nThe Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. The seminar series runs every semester on a theme chosen by faculty organizer/s who are affiliated with the Research Center for Group Dynamics at the Institute for Social Research. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent themes have included political polarization\, evolution and human behavior\, and cultural psychology.\n\nIn person: ISR Thompson 6050\, unless otherwise specified.\nOrganized by Kristine Ajrouch and Sela Panapasa\nEvents are not recorded.

It’s a course where\, per the syllabus\, students \"develop the capacity to work independently by identifying\, exploring\, and pursuing a single independent project that involves multiple iterations.\" Each student takes their own path\, encountering questions that can shape the direction of their creative practice. At the end of the semester\, students formally report on their experience in a presentation called the Sophomore Review and receive direct feedback from a panel of Stamps faculty members. \n\nInstalled throughout the Art & Architecture Building\, the Second Year Studio Exhibition showcases the art and design work created in this pivotal course by our rising third-year and transfer students\, and invites first-year students and other newcomers to explore both the building and the creative possibilities ahead. The show features 50 students who have volunteered to participate\, yet it honors every Stamps major who reaches the SYS milestone. \n\nThe works in this year’s exhibition engage a wide range of questions and concerns. Students investigate memory\, identity\, materiality\, ecology\, technology\, labor\, social relationships\, and the built environment through equally diverse formal approaches. While these subjects recur across the exhibition\, what stands out most is not a dominant thematic direction\, but a shared commitment to sustained inquiry.\n\n–Sally Clegg\, Lecturer & Student Exhibitions Coordinator & Pedram Baldari\, Assistant Professor\n\nExhibiting Artists and Designers\n
