Location: Museum of Art
Organized By: University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA)

Lewis & Spence deliver a wide variety of old time classics with solid vocal harmonies, region-specific fiddle tunes, and driving banjo stylings to chase the blues away! Swapping instruments throughout their set, this duo dons an amusing repertoire, punctuated by the occasional flatfoot number, during which Lewis clicks-and-clacks along with the rhythmic phrases as Spence hammers them out on the banjo. Eager to invite audience members to wrestle with the difficult themes that shroud old time music and its history, this duo shares their analysis, questions, and ponderings casually throughout their set. Traveling with an impressive display of cheap art, it’s clear their inspiration ranges from a reverence for traditional music to the looming collapse of our civilization.

a musical by Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler

Department of Musical Theatre
Directed by Vincent J. Cardinal
Music Direction by Catherine A. Walker

Sweeney Todd is a musical melodrama set in the 1840s based on an allegedly true tale. Released from prison for a crime he didn’t commit, Sweeney vows revenge on the world for the loss of his family. With the assistance of his unhinged landlady Mrs. Lovett, Sweeney reaps vengeance through his barbershop that is at once horrifying and exhilarating. Mrs. Lovett’s brilliant idea of how to deal with the aftermath of Todd’s handiwork makes her pie shop and the barber’s chair the most popular place in London. Will Sweeney’s obsession prevent him from recognizing a chance of salvation or will madness overwhelm all?

Opening on Broadway in 1979, Sweeney Todd was the second collaboration between Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler, following their success with A Little Night Music. The show won eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Score, and Book. Sweeney has been revived multiple times on Broadway, adapted into a motion picture, and is currently playing Off-Broadway in a new immersive production. Sondheim’s sublimely gruesome and funny musical features one of the most thrilling scores in musical theatre and includes such favorites as “A Little Priest” and “Not While I’m Around,” along with the opening song “The Ballad of Sweeney Todd.” Attend the tale—if you dare!

Named among Yahoo Music’s “Top 10 Bands to Watch in 2017,” The Accidentals began their adventure in their hometown of Traverse City, MI, when Katie Larson, a sophomore cellist, and Savannah Buist, a junior violinist, were paired for a high school orchestra event. The gifted young musicians became fast friends and before long, bandmates. Dubbing themselves after the musical notes that fall outside of a key signature, they were joined in 2014 by percussionist Michael Dause, and since then national attention has increasingly come their way. Along the road, where they've performed more than 1,000 shows over the last five years, they been open to and influenced by a dizzying variety of musical genres, from classical music to hip-hop. Signed to the major Sony label in 2017, the band has released two albums, including the recent and politically aware "Heavy Flag." See them in the intimate confines of The Ark while you still can!

Suddenly. As suddenly as it has come. I raised myself from the sand and, without bothering either to take off my shoes or roll up my cuffs, walked into the surf to let the waves lap at my ankles.” What does it mean to tell a story? Who is the storyteller, who is listening? What real geography is surrounding us and what landscape do we imagine in our stories?

Jacob Jolliff was born into a musical family in Newberg, OR. His dad started him on the mandolin at age seven and required him to practice ten minutes a day. But after six months of practicing this minimal amount, something clicked, and almost overnight he started putting in several hours of intense practice daily. And this hasn't really changed in the last 20 years. He's played with Joy Kills Sorrow and Yonder Mountain String Band (which continues to tour), and now he's started his own Jacob Jolliff Band, featuring some of New England's most virtuosic young pickers. The group features a lot of Jacob's original instrumentals, as well as showcasing his singing, which has been a big part of what he does in recent years.

Location: Walgreen Drama Center
Organized By: School of Music, Theatre & Dance

*This production has been re-scheduled from February*

Devised Dance/Theatre piece inspired by short stories by Haruki Murakami and many more. Directed by Tzveta Kassabova with the cast. “And then I realized that the deep darkness inside me had vanished. Suddenly. As suddenly as it has come. I raised myself from the sand and, without bothering either to take off my shoes or roll up my cuffs, walked into the surf to let the waves lap at my ankles.” What does it mean to tell a story? Who is the storyteller, who is listening? What real geography is surrounding us and what landscape do we imagine in our stories?

On Son Volt’s new record, "Union," present and past mingle into strong confluence. The 13 new songs written by founder Jay Farrar confront our turbulent politics and articulate the clarity and comfort music can offer in the tumult. “There are so many forces driving our country apart,” observes Jay. “What can we do to bring our society back together?” The country and blues sounds explored by Son Volt on its last two records (2013’s "Honky Tonk" and 2017’s "Notes of Blue") linger in the grooves of "Union." But the new record nods to many other mile markers along the band’s 25-year path. Some tunes offer a powerful return to the ringing lyrical clarity of 2005’s "Okemah" and "Melody of Riot,"and 2007’s "The Search." Others hearken back to the freewheeling poetic melodicism of 1994’s "Trace" and 1997’s "Straightaways." This is an album and a show that see one of Americana's great bands both looking back and continuing to drive forward.

Kentucky songwriter Ian Noe opens.

Sam Amidon // Flashpapr (April 29, 2019 8:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/61701 61701-15170150@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, April 29, 2019 8:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)

Sam Amidon is a singer and multi-instrumentalist originally hailing from Brattleboro, Vermont. He has released multiple albums of radically reimagined folksongs on the Bedroom Community and Nonesuch labels. Called "part preservationist, part visionary" by the Boston Globe, Sam offers reworkings of traditional American ballads, hymns and work songs, with the New York Times writing that he "transforms all of the songs, changing their colors and loading them with trapdoors." Along the way Sam has recorded or performed as a guest artists with musicians such as pianist Jason Moran, indie rock band Bon Iver, and Glen Hansard.

Flashpapr is a Michigan band, known (or faintly remembered) for playing broken folk music between 1996 and 2004. After a period of inactivity, Flashpapr now performs as a duo of its original members, Fred Thomas (Saturday Looks Good To Me) and Jacob Danziger (recordings with His Name Is Alive, Steve Roden, Cynthia Nelson, The Naysayer and Doveman). Along with Zach Wallace, Ben Bracken, and Ida Pearle, their three albums captured the sad and hopeful feeling of being alive, and their word-of-mouth live performances (in kitchens, living rooms, garages and back yards) were uncomfortably earnest attempts to invert the relationship between the band and audience. "You are my best friend, you are the most beautiful thing I keep inside my heart" was basically the idea.

**Free at the door for Ark members at the Solo level and above

House of Hamill features Brian Buchanan of Enter the Haggis and Rose Baldino of Burning Bridget Cleary.

Their music has been described as "Radiohead meets Riverdance"; Celtic-inspired, exciting, eclectic and unpredictable.

House of Hamill’s music occupies a space between traditional Irish music and sophisticated indie/pop.

Together, they write unusual, new fiddle tunes and exciting, unpredictable original songs while breathing new life into traditional and contemporary songs. Both are confident and unique lead vocalists, and the blend of their two voices in harmony is hypnotic and irresistible.

Whether House of Hamill is playing songs from their debut album "Wide Awake" (2016) or stomping through a set of original jigs and reels from their follow-up "March Through Storms" (2018), their chemistry onstage is always engaging and often hilarious. Spend an hour listening and you'll leave with tired feet, a huge smile, and a new appreciation for the versatility of folk instruments in a modern context.

Check out their all-violin viral video of Guns n Roses’ “Sweet Child of Mine”:

Parsonsfield is a five-piece alt/folk band from Massachusetts that infuses a rowdy, rock 'n' roll spirit into its bluegrass and folk influences, blowing away any preconception of what you think banjos and mandolins should sound like. They weren't always called Parsonsfield—the band started out as Poor Old Shine. The new name was born of the inspired experiences recording two albums in beautiful, rural Parsonsfield, Maine. "We owe a lot to what happened there," they say. "It pulled us from being a more traditional string band to something that felt much more uniquely ourselves. It made us the band we are today." The joy is palpable when this band takes the stage, and NPR says they make "the most jubilant and danceable indie roots music this side of the Carolinas." Parsonsfield returns to The Ark from its debut at the 2019 Ann Arbor Folk Festival.

Jeffrey Foucault w/sg Erik Koskinen (May 5, 2019 7:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/61177 61177-15045300@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Sunday, May 5, 2019 7:30pm

Wisconsin's Jeffrey Foucault writes sparse small-town ballads and love songs whose lyrics are great poems in themselves. "Townes Van Zandt, Greg Brown, and Kelly Joe Phelps fans should give Foucault a listen," says the Pasadena Weekly. The country rockers and dark blues songs of this Midwestern original are truly haunting things. Jeffrey has grown tremendously as a songwriter over the ten albums he has released, and by now he's gaining raves from the likes of supercritic Greil Marcus, who describes Jeffrey's music this way: "An acoustic guitar figure comes up against drums buried far away, like a memory. The story creeps out, and stops well short of its end, though you can glimpse it. Foucault drifts over the words so lightly that they seem to fade as they’re sung, and you might stop trying to hear them as words, let them come as sounds." Jeffrey comes to Michigan with a stunning new album, "Blood Brothers."

With his rough-hewn voice and laid-back Midwestern charm, Lee DeWyze won over millions of viewers as a contestant and eventual winner of the ninth season of American Idol. An accomplished singer, guitarist, and songwriter who had already built a following on the Chicago club scene by the time he auditioned for Idol, Lee says, "I love guys like Cat Stevens, Kris Kristofferson, Dave Matthews, and Ray LaMontagne. I'm a sucker for hard-edged vocals over pretty melodies and catchy grooves." Lee's second album, "Frames," made Guitar World's list of the top ten acoustic albums of 2013, and his original "Blackbird Song" has been one of the big viral hits of recent years. Lee's latest, "Paranoia," includes dark new songs and electronic elements. Brooklyn indie band Elizabeth and The Catapult opens

Organized By: Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)

Huddled round a single vintage microphone, singing intimate duets with just mountain dulcimer, dobro and guitar,
Hannah Sanders & Ben Savage are an acoustic duo that sound classically timeless, yet their music is unique.
Since emerging in 2016, the duo have recorded two studio albums, Before the Sun (2016) and Awake (2018),
produced by award winning producer David Travers-Smith in Toronto, both of which gathered praise for the
crafting and skill of their musical writing and arranging.
The duo have toured the UK, North America and mainland Europe, enrapturing audiences at shows and on festival
stages with the sparkling beauty of their acoustic style.
They have shared stages and opened shows for Americana and folk luminaries such as Sarah Jarosz, Martin
Simpson, Seth Lakeman and Oh Susanna. Fleetingly, they may evoke a memory of Gram & Emmylou, Shirley
& Davey, or Gillian & David but their distilling of musical influences from both sides of the Atlantic produces a
refined sound that is decidedly their own.
Their unique unplugged presentation creates a widescreen, cinematic soundscape with open spaces and
atmosphere, giving their beautifully pure vocals room to share the songs’ emotion and narrative.
The material is as joyful and fun as it is intense, but the common factor is the duo’s warmth and confidence in each
other; their natural ease and connection is clearly evident on the recorded music, and a genuine pleasure to
witness on stage.

Nora Jane Struthers has written "some of the most quietly powerful narratives within the new wave of Americana artists," says Ann Powers of NPR Music. There’s an honesty and energy to Nora Jane’s stage presence; a vulnerability that is part and parcel of great artistry. In one moment, she joyfully leads the audience in a dance party ... in the next, she lays her soul bare for the world to hear. A performance by Nora Jane and her band is full to the brim with stellar musicianship, unexpected arrangements that blur the lines between folk, roots, and rock, and an audible sense that everyone in the room is having a damn good time. Nora Jane comes to Michigan with a new album on the way!

Chicago's Susan Werner is a triple threat at folk awards ceremonies with her luxuriously smooth and strong voice (she's a former opera singer), riveting lyrics, and haunting melodies. “When it comes to crafting a song, Ms. Werner’s only peers are Jimmy Webb and Paul Simon,” raves No Depression. Susan can do it all! She's a virtuoso on both piano and guitar, and her recordings have ranged from hardcore folk to Broadway music, humorous songs, a skeptical yet sympathetic take on gospel, songs of farming, and even classical arrangements of classic rock. Susan has a way of reinventing herself for each new project, but there's a core of humor sophistication, and musical craft that endures. She comes to Michigan with a new album, "NOLA: Susan Werner Goes to New Orleans," and, well, New Orleans may never be the same. Ann Arbor trombonist, Chris Smith, joins Susan for the show!

Sam Baker makes people happy. The characters in his songs face many challenges—alcoholism, car wrecks, racism, drug addiction, a mother’s abandonment—but they persevere. Much like Sam himself. In 1986 Sam got in the middle of someone else’s war. When a terrorist bomb exploded in the his train compartment, he went from being a young, healthy, tourist enjoying Peru with friends to a broken man surrounded by death and dying. Given his injuries, he too should have died. But through a series of miracles and coincidences he survived. With the top of his left hand gone, it seemed that his formerly skillful hands had been transformed into blocks of wood, but eventually those hands learned how to play an upside-down guitar. He needed to tell his story. Songs started to come from that upside-down guitar. Before he knew it, there were CDs, tours around the world, an interview with Terry Gross, and awards in Rolling Stone. A Sam Baker show is a celebration. Some songs tell of everyday people who survive life’s daily challenges; others are stories of growing up in a small Texas prairie town. All his shows are an acknowledgment and appreciation of the pure joy that comes with people gathering to listen to live music. Sam’s fans travel to see him, often driving hours to experience the powerful performance. After the show, they tell Sam their stories. At the end of the day, all go in peace.

Rose Cousins just might be Nova Scotia's answer to Iris DeMent, or even to Kate Wolf. Says Lifestyle Nova Scotia: "Cousins writes songs strong on story, melody, and honest observations ... that demand an unaffected but beautiful voice." Her album "We Have Made a Spark" took home a Canadian Juno Award along with many other awards, including a spot on NPR’s Top 10 Americana & Folk Albums list. That album was recorded in Boston, where Rose spends part of her time, and where she's found strong support from the city's vibrant songwriting community. Rooted in authenticity and conviction of voice, the songs of Rose Cousins make you feel as though she sings for you, about your life. "We develop patterns that keep us from moving forward," Rose says. "It takes a deep breath and a bucket of courage to face the uncomfortable, painful things we work so hard to avoid. Reward comes from recognizing the obstacle exists and pushing through fear."

Ever since their first meeting, over 20 years ago, Robert Jones and Matt Watroba have been musical partners. Their relationship started when they hosted back-to-back radio shows on WDET-FM, Detroit. Later on they started performing together and in doing so discovered a friendship based on mutual respect and a love for traditional American music. Now Matt and Robert literally travel the nation extolling the virtues of “Music That Matters." For Matt and Robert, American roots music (folk, blues, spirituals, work songs, chants, etc.) is music that matters. This is the music that America and the world have in common. It is music that reflects history, social change, migration, hopes and dreams. It is music that is rich and diverse, direct and powerful. Robert and Matt have performed this powerful program at hundreds of schools, festivals, coffeehouses, and conferences, to resounding acclaim, and now they've released a new joint album, "Common Chords."

The daughter of the famed Polish-Canadian mathematician Irving Kaplansky (who once wrote a song based on the first 14 digits of pi that his daughter has been known to perform), Lucy Kaplansky started out singing in Chicago bars. Then, barely out of high school, she took off for New York City. There she found a fertile community of songwriters and performers—Suzanne Vega, John Gorka, Bill Morrissey, Cliff Eberhardt, and others—where she fit right in. She's a singer-songwriter with an extraordinary feel for the range of human emotion. Lucy puts her own spin on contemporary songwriter folk with warm, powerful vocals and guitar playing that draws guitar gods (or geeks) to talk shop with her. Lucy Kaplansky, says the Boston Globe, "is becoming the troubadour laureate of modern city folk." She comes to Michigan with a new album on themes of nature, "Everyday Street."

Citing the likes of Jeff Buckley, Radiohead, and Dave Matthews among his influences, Howie Day used their music as a basis for his own original direction. Howie, like Patty Griffin, was a product of Bangor, Maine, who made a splash in Boston's coffeehouse scene. He released his first album, "Australia," in 2000. A lot has happened since then. Howie's music went in a rock direction, and he got the attention of industry heavyweight Chris Blackwell and was signed to the major Epic label. He got a gold record for his album "Stop the World Now," and he's been romantically linked to Britney Spears. What hasn't changed is that he writes songs imbued with a wide-eyed sense of boundless emotion, and clothes them in gorgeous arrangements that include innovative looping techniques. Howie's live shows are wonderful experiments in diverse song and instrumentation, and if you haven't experienced this unique artist yet, you're missing out! The Brian Jarvis Band opens.

Canadian-born songwriter Lynn Miles combines the emotional intensity of Lucinda Williams with the common-touch songcraft of Shawn Colvin and delivers the results in a beautiful melancholy package. In the words of USA Today: "Miles sings of stark, desolate loneliness, and the instruments accompanying her echo in the expanse of the solitude." And consider this testimony from The Ark's own former program direcdtor Dave Siglin: "I presented literally thousands of performers, including many wonderful singer-songwriters whose music I now cherish. Of all of these, I find myself listening to the music of Lynn Miles more than that of any other performer who played the club. Her melodies are stunning, and I think many of her lyrics are absolute poetry capable of standing alone. ... The point of my writing this is that I can easily say Lynn Miles ranks as my favorite singer-songwriter to have ever played The Ark during my tenure over the last forty years. Flat out my favorite." Lynn has been touring lately with a duo called The Lynnes, and it's been a while since we've heard her solo show. Not to be missed!

Organized By: Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)

Al Stewart was born in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1945, and moved with his family to Bournemouth, a seaside town in the south of England, at an early age. A strong dose of Bob Dylan’s original songs shifted his focus from instrumentalist to lyricist and vocalist. In 1965, Al moved to London and became the emcee at the famed Les Cousins folk club, rubbing shoulders with young talents like Paul Simon, Ralph McTell, Bert Jansch, and Cat Stevens. After several albums written in autobiographical mode, Al shifted his lyrical gaze outward, into history, literature and current events, an approach debuted on 1973’s "Past, Present & Future." Al’s next album exploded in America: "Year of the Cat," released in 1976, spawned two Top 20 hits (the title song and "On the Border"), and itself became a million-selling record. After Al relocated to California, where he still resides, his next album, 1978’s "Time Passages," repeated the success of its predecessor, selling another million copies and spinning off the Top 10 title track and Top 30 single, "Song on the Radio." In the early 1990s, Al returned to his folk roots with "Famous Last Words," which utilized acoustic instrumentation and traditional folk and classical styles. He's never stopped creating completely original music—or being able to conjure other times and distant places with well-chosen words and evocative music.

Ypsilanti songwriter Adam Plomaritas draws on the words of John Coltrane to describe his own art: "My music is the spiritual expression of what I am – My faith, my knowledge, my being .. When you begin to see the possibilities of music, you desire to do something really good for people, to help humanity free itself from its hang-ups .. I want to speak to their souls." He writes about things that happen every day, his family, and the struggle to live a good life. "I tend to think of myself as a rational person, but music is a place where I can feel," he says. "Music can be—should be—emotional. The music I make is about what I love, what I hate, what I enjoy and what I fear. I think that the idea that heaven is a place full of music is a profound one. Music gives us an opportunity to both touch and be touched by something greater than ourselves." Songwriter Amy Petty opens with a mix of folk, pop, rock and blues ballads.

Andrew Brown's Djangophonique is a musical project that performs Jazz Manouche and Hot Swing inspired by the legendary gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt and his Quintette du Hot Club de France. ​ Born in a sandstone Victorian farmhouse that has been in his family since it was built four generations ago, Andrew Brown is the son of a Motown session musician and grew up listening to the sounds of his dad’s piano as he steeped in musical influences from Duke Ellington to Stevie Wonder. As a young man returning from a trip to New Orleans with a newfound interest in swing, he co-founded the eclectic Americana group Appleseed Collective, with whom he has toured 150+ dates a year. Traveling all over the continental United States, playing esteemed venues and festivals such as The Ark, Sisters Folk Festival, Wheatland, Cervantes Ballroom, Summercamp Music Festival, Schuba’s, and The Ann Arbor Folk Festival at Hill Auditorium, he cut his teeth as a guitarist, songwriter, and band leader. Since slowing down his touring schedule in 2017, he began tirelessly studying and performing the music of his favorite guitar player: Django Reinhardt. Since then he has studied at various music camps with many of the genres heavy-hitting players such as Angelo Debarre, Sebastian Gineaux, and Gonzalo Bergara, and was even invited to back up Denis Chang at one of his concerts. 

​Andrew currently plays throughout Michigan with his own project Djangophonique, his band Appleseed Collective, and his friends' projects Third Coast Gypsy Jazz and Smoking Dandies. He also teaches guitar, both generally and specifically in the style of Django.

One voice is all it takes. The right vocalist can make you fall in love at first listen, elicit tears, or bring you back to a different era altogether. A microphone and a stage remain the only necessities. That holds true for New York-based soul singer, songwriter, and Broadway actress Morgan James.

Part of Morgan’s creative trajectory has become centered around her full album cover projects. She covered D’Angelo’s “Black Messiah” one month after its release, Jeff Buckley’s “Grace” and a critically acclaimed full cover of Joni Mitchell’s “Blue”. She now takes on her most ambitious project to date: The Beatles “White” album, celebrating the 50th anniversary of its original release.

Her latest studio album, "Reckless Abandon", is her first as an independent artist, and it is her most personal outing yet, prompting the Huffington Post to call MJ the "Brightest Breakout Artist of the Year". Morgan assumed co-writing duties on all twelve tracks and sang all her own background vocals. The album is stocked with lush horns and harmonies, and stretches limbs between genres for a sound all its own. From the Rufus inspired soul swagger of the opening track "Up In Smoke", to the delicious R&B slow jam "You Thought Not", to the infectious soulful pop of "Unworthy", MJ takes the listener into her new era of freedom and empowerment.

On her full-length debut for Epic Records, “Hunter,” she cast an unbreakable spell with a powerhouse voice, theatrical swing, and a soulful poise. “Hunter” boasts a powerful and personal rendition of Prince’s “Call My Name” (reached Top 15 at Urban AC radio and #1 most added). Morgan assumed co-writing duties on eight of the collection’s eleven tracks and performed all of her own background vocals and harmonies. From the empowering farewell of “Fed Up On You” to the mournful rumination of “Say The Words”, or the soulful duet with Grammy Award winner Robert Glasper, "Let Me Keep You", she continually bares it all—both emotionally and musically.

In addition to her studio albums "Reckless Abandon" and "Hunter", Morgan has released a live tribute to her idol, Nina Simone, "Morgan James Live", as well as an EP featuring some of her fan's favorite covers, "YouTube Sessions". (She can also be heard on countless theatre and concept soundtracks). Morgan is proud to note that no vocal tuning of any kind has been used on any of her albums.

Morgan’s videos on YouTube have accumulated more than 150 million views (and climbing). With viral sensation Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox, Morgan toured the US, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. She is currently on the road touring with her band!

"Long before Alanis and Jewel," says Billboard, "there was a breed of singer/songwriters whose earthly anthems of soul-searching, heartache, and joy touched souls in a way few can muster today." Karla Bonoff was the best of that breed. This California singer-songwriter looked herself in the eye with each song she wrote, and her sad, knowing music was recorded by Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt, Aaron Neville, Wynonna Judd ("Tell Me Why"), and a host of others, and a younger generation of female songwriters was listening closely. "Her melodic sense, personal lyrics, and vocal stylings have found their way into the work of everyone from Shawn Colvin and Jonatha Brooke to Sarah McLachlan and Paula Cole," writes Catie Curtis. Today she writes just a few songs a year and makes them count. Karla comes to Michigan with a new release, "Carry Me Home," featuring new versions of classic songs as well as original material.

Organized By: School of Music, Theatre & Dance

Community members from Detroit, along with U-M faculty and students, are joining forces to create Belle Isle and Beyond, an innovative site dance performance that celebrates the synergies between Detroit’s natural and built environments. The family-friendly 30-minute outdoor performance will begin at the Belle Isle Nature Center and environs, rain or shine.

The Belle Isle and Beyond performance grows out of a series of workshops in dance, visual art, and music for Detroit Academy of Arts and Sciences middle school students. Held at the Belle Isle Nature Center and at Detroit Academy of Arts and Sciences in February-April, the workshops cultivated a sensory engagement with Belle Isle in order to deepen understandings of Detroit’s ecosystems and the ongoing restoration efforts taking place in the Detroit River watershed.

Inspired by the creative investigations of the young students, Belle Isle and Beyond features choreographers and dancers from Detroit’s Big Red Wall Dance Company, whose artistic director is Erika Stowall, and Ann Arbor Dance Works, the resident dance company of the University of Michigan Department of Dance. The artistic director for Ann Arbor Dance Works and for Belle Isle and Beyond is Jessica Fogel, a professor of Dance at U-M.

Music for the performance is composed by Michael Gurevich, associate professor of Performing Arts Technology at U-M, and by Tessa Fornari, a U-M Performing Arts Technology student majoring in sound engineering. Their ambient electronic score incorporates sounds of Belle Isle, including sounds recorded by the DAAS middle school students and underwater recordings of the Detroit River.

The event also features an exhibit of art collages created by the DAAS middle school students in a workshop led by U-M School for Environment and Sustainability aquatic ecologist and visual artist Dr. Sara Adlerstein, and Belle Isle Nature Center education specialist David Anthony.

Sponsored by Michigan MCubed 3.0; University of Michigan Edward Ginsberg Center; University of Michigan School of Music, Theatre & Dance Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion; Detroit Academy of Arts and Sciences; the Detroit Zoological Society and Belle Isle Nature Center.

Community members from Detroit, along with U-M faculty and students, are joining forces to create Belle Isle and Beyond, an innovative site dance performance that celebrates the synergies between Detroit’s natural and built environments. The family-friendly 30-minute outdoor performance will begin at the Belle Isle Nature Center and environs, rain or shine.

The Belle Isle and Beyond performance grows out of a series of workshops in dance, visual art, and music for Detroit Academy of Arts and Sciences middle school students. Held at the Belle Isle Nature Center and at Detroit Academy of Arts and Sciences in February-April, the workshops cultivated a sensory engagement with Belle Isle in order to deepen understandings of Detroit’s ecosystems and the ongoing restoration efforts taking place in the Detroit River watershed.

Inspired by the creative investigations of the young students, Belle Isle and Beyond features choreographers and dancers from Detroit’s Big Red Wall Dance Company, whose artistic director is Erika Stowall, and Ann Arbor Dance Works, the resident dance company of the University of Michigan Department of Dance. The artistic director for Ann Arbor Dance Works and for Belle Isle and Beyond is Jessica Fogel, a professor of Dance at U-M.

Music for the performance is composed by Michael Gurevich, associate professor of Performing Arts Technology at U-M, and by Tessa Fornari, a U-M Performing Arts Technology student majoring in sound engineering. Their ambient electronic score incorporates sounds of Belle Isle, including sounds recorded by the DAAS middle school students and underwater recordings of the Detroit River.

The event also features an exhibit of art collages created by the DAAS middle school students in a workshop led by U-M School for Environment and Sustainability aquatic ecologist and visual artist Dr. Sara Adlerstein, and Belle Isle Nature Center education specialist David Anthony.

The Ryan Montbleau Band (June 11, 2019 8:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/63030 63030-15536924@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, June 11, 2019 8:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)

In 2005, Ryan Montbleau and his band headed into Applehead Recording in Saugerties, New York, to cut their debut album. With nothing more than ambition and a relentless work ethic to their names, they bootstrapped the whole thing, maxing out credit cards to fund it themselves and launch their careers from the ground up. Twelve years, eleven records, thousands of shows, and 60 million Spotify streams later, Montbleau returned to the studio for a special one-night-only concert that would become the latest entry in his venerable catalog: ‘Woodstock Sessions.’



“There was something special about performing there again after going into that same studio as a young buck trying to figure out how to make my first records,” reflects Montbleau. “Coming back, I was a decade more confident, a decade stronger in my craft. It felt like coming full circle.”



For his performance that night, Montbleau was backed not by his usual touring band, but by the acclaimed Boston duo Tall Heights (cellist Paul Wright and guitarist Tim Harrington). The collaboration yielded fresh perspective on Montbleau’s catalog, fleshing out his stripped-down acoustic performances with gorgeous vocal blends and elegant instrumental arrangements. Soulful and spontaneous, the set showcased the magic that can happen when three consummate musicians surrender themselves to the songs, when a trio of gifted artists follow their instincts to craft a whole far greater than the sum of its parts.



“Tall Heights’ sound just naturally wraps around mine in a way that’s really unique,” says Montbleau. “Their harmonies and tones are so dialed in with each other, and their voices gel around mine perfectly. When we get together, something special tends to happen.”



Recorded in front of an intimate audience, the resulting collection combines the pristine audio quality of a studio record with the contagious energy of a live album, an ideal fit for Montbleau’s intimate, honest lyrics and spirited, dynamic delivery. The unusual setting pushed him to step outside his comfort zone and take bold artistic risks, assembling a setlist that was equal parts reimagined retrospective and trial-by-fire as he mixed stripped-down versions of songs from throughout his career with brand new tracks recorded for the first time that night. “Less is more” was the mantra, and while Montbleau may be best known for his barn-burning full-band shows, he’s no stranger to the raw acoustic setting.



“I’ve been touring solo about half the year lately, and my last release was a solo record where I really stripped the songs down to their bare bones,” says Montbleau. “I felt like those were some of the best songs I’ve written in my entire life, and this record is a perfect continuation of that. The music’s fleshed out a little bit more, but at its essence, it’s still me just pouring my heart out.”



Montbleau’s been pouring his heart out in song since the early 2000’s, when he first began performing around his native Massachusetts. He’d go on to collaborate with Martin Sexton, Trombone Shorty, and Galactic among others, and share bills and stages with artists as diverse as Tedeschi Trucks Band, Ani DiFranco, The Wood Brothers, Rodrigo y Gabriela, and Mavis Staples, but it was Montbleau’s ecstatic headline shows—often more than 200 of them a year—that solidified his reputation as a live powerhouse and an inexorable road warrior. NPR’s Mountain Stage compared his “eloquent, soulful songwriting” to Bill Withers and James Taylor, while Relix hailed his “poetic Americana,” and The Boston Herald raved that “he’s made a career of confident, danceable positivity.”



Montbleau’s never been one to rest on his laurels, though, and ‘Woodstock Sessions’ opens with a brand new song called “Looking Glass,” a gentle, pensive track that proves his lyrical prowess and melodic gifts are sharper now than ever before. “Busy people in the burning sand / Take a look up from your looking glass when you can,” he sings, his raspy voice ensconced in velvet harmony over top of intricate fingerpicking.



“That song was written just in time for the session and it was buzzing to get out,” explains Montbleau. “It's about the modern day-to-day, the ways we connect and the isolation we experience from staring at our screens all day and all night.”



The desire for connection, for a true human bond, is a recurring theme in Montbleau’s writing. The bittersweet “Our Own Place” searches for a home that’s perpetually just out of reach, while the brooding “Ships In The Night” ruminates on our polarized political climate, and the heartfelt “The Country and The Town” (a song commissioned by PBS in Montbleau’s newly-adopted home of Vermont) celebrates the power of community. Montbleau’s live shows are nothing if not communal affairs, and the confessional “Help Me” reaches out a helping hand out for anyone struggling through hard times.



“There’s still this shame tied up in mental illness or mental struggles,” says Montbleau. “So many people experience dark, even suicidal thoughts, and we need to talk about that more, collectively as a society and individually as friends and families. I wrote this song when I was going through those feelings myself, and I share it in the hopes that it can help other folks dealing with the same thing.”



Montbleau’s songs have a way of weaving themselves into the fabric of his listeners’ lives that way, offering up hope and light in moments of darkness and doubt. The tender “Carry” pledges to always be there to pick up a lover’s slack, while the striving “Chariot (I Know)” insists upon love and faith in the face of uncertainty, and the lilting “All Or Nothing” (which was originally recorded and released as a single with Tall Heights) promises better days to come. Selecting which ten tracks to include on the album from the nearly three-and-a-half-hour concert wasn’t easy—there’s no way to include every fan favorite—but Montbleau ultimately let the spirit of the songs guide him.



“I’m not trying to put out my greatest hits,” he concludes. “I’m just trying to create the best and most timely art I can.”



A lot may have changed since Ryan Montbleau first set foot in Applehead Recording, but some things will always stay the same.

An acoustic band born in the land of tech innovation, Front Country was never going to be accepted as an authentic American roots band out of the gate. Cutting their teeth in progressive bluegrass jams in San Francisco’s Mission District and rehearsing in the East Bay, they learned to play roots music their own way, with the tools they had on hand. A mandolinist with a degree in composition and classical guitar. A guitarist trained in rock and world music. A bassist equally versed in jazz and bluegrass. A violinist with technique that could seamlessly hop between honky tonk and electropop. A female lead singer with grit and soul that was also a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter. In a wood-paneled country dive bar in the shadow of the San Francisco skyline, Front Country forged a sound hell-bent on merging the musical past with the future. Now they've moved to Nashville, released a new album, "Other Love Songs," and continued to impress listeners of all stripes as one of the most exciting roots bands around.

Organized By: Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)

A Montreal-born Grenadian Canadian, Kaia Kater grew up between two worlds: her family’s deep ties to folk music and the years she spent soaking up Appalachian music in West Virginia. Her old-time banjo-picking skills, deft arrangements, and songwriting abilities have landed her in the spotlight in North America and the UK, garnering critical acclaim from outlets such as NPR, CBC Radio, Rolling Stone, BBC Music, and No Depression. Kaia started her career early, crafting her first EP, "Old Soul" (2013), when she was just out of high school. Since then, she’s gone on to release two more albums, "Sorrow Bound" (2015) and "Nine Pin" (2016). Her second album wove between hard-hitting songs touching on social issues like the Black Lives Matter movement (“Rising Down”) and more personal narratives speaking to life and love in the digital age (“Saint Elizabeth”). "Nine Pin" sent Kaia on an 18-month touring journey from Ireland to Iowa, including stops at The Kennedy Center, Hillside Festival and London's O2 Shepherd's Bush. For her third album, "Grenades," she has taken a decidedly different direction, choosing to lean into a wider array of sounds and styles, in order to convey a wider array of emotions and topics, most notably her paternal ancestry. Grenades has been nominated for a 2019 JUNO award for Contemporary Roots Album of the Year. Grand Rapids singer-songwriter Olivia Mainville opens.

All of these performers have been well known to Ark audiences through songwriter in-the-round shows and our storytelling festival, and to see them all in one place sounds like a perfect Father's Day weekend gift!

Taking their name from a traditional song, Les Poules à Colin were raised behind the scenes at folk festivals, learning their craft at kitchen parties amongst some of Quebec’s finest traditional musicians—which included their parents—in a region famous for its living heritage. The group has a strong stage presence and demonstrates a contagious pleasure in each and every performance, drawing the audience to them. The group has already performed in major cities and small towns in Canada, the US, Europe, the UK and Australia, and Africa, amassing a wealth of impressive experience in a short time. The group’s sound is a seamless blend of their strong folk upbringing and North American influences that range from old-time to jazz, with some provocative and moody effects. Their adaptations of traditional songs from Quebec, Brittany, and Louisiana speak eloquently to their generation while retaining the beauty of timeless music. Fiddle, guitar, lap steel, banjo, mandolin, piano, bass and foot percussion form a rich and varied backdrop for their inventive arrangements. Les Poules à Colin reveal a unique and modern perspective on traditional Québec culture.

Over the past four decades, Robyn Hitchcock has built a large and distinctive body of work that's established him as one of rock's most respected and beloved iconoclasts. Drawing on roots in the music of John Lennon, Bob Dylan, and the New Wave, his unique songs veer from comic surrealism to slightly melancholy pictures of everyday life and the slightly eccentric people who live it--all set to gorgeous ore fun," he says. He describes his songs as "paintings you can listen to." Robyn comes to Michigan for his first new show in five years with several recent releases including a self-titled one he describes as "an ecstatic work of negativity with nary a dreary groove."

Organized By: University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA)

Warren & Flick explore the nuanced textures of a two-person band. Using both original material and standards from many genres they have arranged in a personal style, the group finds new depth in the simplicity of the duo. Jacob Warren plays double bass, while Grant Flick plays violin, tenor guitar and mandolin. Currently based out of Ann Arbor, Michigan, the two met at the 2015 Acoustic Music Seminar (AMS), a program accepting only sixteen young string players from around the world to participate in a week of intense improvisation, composition, and performance training. A part of the Savannah Music Festival in Georgia, AMS is led by multi-instrumentalist Mike Marshall with the help of guitarist Julian Lage.

After discovering their shared musical interests, Jacob and Grant began collaborating as a duo as well as in larger projects including The Leafless and Westbound Situation, both comprised of former AMS participants. Jacob and Grant attend University of Michigan School of Music, Theatre, & Dance, where they spend much of their time arranging, composing and performing together. With Jacob’s classical foundation and Grant’s experience in bluegrass and jazz, their contrasting backgrounds give them a unique and compelling musical narrative. ​ Find them on Facebook.

It was inevitable, perhaps—creative musical friends find other creative musical friends and can’t resist creating music together. Out of the heart of the Midwest, two veteran Michigan duos join forces in a new quartet/quintet: Diamonds in the Rust. In what began simply as an idea to tour together, Annie & Rod Capps and Jan Krist & Jim Bizer (along with percussionist/composer Alan Finkbeiner) have formed a new band. With each member already well known for performing prowess, the new group promises to be that much more. Everyone sings, everyone plays multiple instruments, and the band boasts a trio of respected, award-winning songwriters. The repertoire also includes a few choice selections from the rich musical history of the place where they grew and learned their craft. Perhaps best of all is the palpable joy and camaraderie that happens between good musicians who are also good friends. Says Rich Warren of WFMT Chicago's Folkstage: "They obviously love performing together and their diverse and skilled writing styles come to life with their upbeat and convincing performance."

Rachel Baiman’s 2017 label debut, "Shame," was featured on NPR’s "Songs We Love," called a "rootsy wake-up call" by Folk Alley, and described by Vice’s Noisey as "flipping off authority one song at a time." She has toured for four years with 10 String Symphony and played fiddle for other musicians, including Kacey Musgraves. Now Baiman has announced "Thanksgiving," a self-produced four-song EP, featuring her live trio as well as special guests including Molly Tuttle and Josh Oliver. "Thanksgiving" is an intriguing follow-up, allowing her a chance to stretch out stylistically, moving effortlessly between bluegrass, to folk, old-time and country. The bittersweet lyricism she’s become known for conveys the push and pull of hardship and hope we often feel during the holiday season. Raised in Chicago by a radical economist and a social worker, Baiman was surrounded by social justice issues her entire life. “If I wanted to rebel against my parents I could have become a finance banker or a corporate lawyer” she says of her childhood, and her new music has a social and political emphasis.

The songwriting of The Adam Ezra Group is making waves around the country. It’s difficult to impart the roots-steeped, road-trippin' essence of the Adam Ezra Group into a single word, but front man Adam Ezra nonetheless keeps one in mind as something of a mantra: COMMUNITY. To the musicians at the heart of AEG, community is epitomized by a belief they all share, one that has long doubled as a mission statement for the group: namely, that making music together is itself a form of grassroots organizing, capable of nothing less than changing the world. The Adam Ezra Group plays upwards of 200 shows a year, often devoting their time to local charities and always going out of their way to connect with fans. Adam is creating a powerful, inclusive community around that is beginning to be compared to a social movement as much as a traditional music fan base. Says Ben Tishler of VH1: "Adam Ezra is one of the most promising songwriters to come along in years," and he has collaborated as a songwriter with the legendary John Oates.

Organized By: Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)

It sounds strange, but maybe what the world needs is a little more Dobro! We're going to test the possibility with three world-class Dobro and slide guitar players, for a night to remember! Mark Lavengood (Lindsay Lou), Joe Wilson (Steppin' In It), and Drew Howard (a dozen albums by everyone from Mustard's Retreat to Peter Madcat Ruth) are well known to Michigan audiences for their work with other artists, but we're putting them together for an evening of Dobro synergy. When the Dopyera Brothers, John and Emil, formed the Dobro Manufacturing Company in 1929, they were dreaming of this show—they just didn't know it yet.

She is a member of Spinning Dot Theatre and has also been seen with The Encore Musical Theatre Company, The Croswell Opera House, Performance Network, and Wild Swan Theatre.

Billy King is a seasoned performer, songwriter, and recording artist. His presence in the independent music scene brings an original blend of rootsy folk/pop with an occasional touch of country swing. Billy's versatility as a multi-genre singer-songwriter is matched by his ability on a wide range of instruments from guitar and banjo to keyboards and accordion. Some of Billy's performance highlights include performing at the The Ark, Ann Arbor Summer Festival, Detroit Art's Beat & Eats, Blind Pig and many more.

The Go Rounds are bits of all your favorite bands exploded into rock n' roll confetti. Their unique brand of Psychedelic Americana Pop crosses, blends, and deconstructs genres from indie to country to art-rock and baroque folk, creating an accessible and engaging experience that will leave you telling your friends. The songs are catchy, twangy, and trippy, led by Graham Parsons' spellbinding vocals, which weave through lush sonic textures and the band’s master class of intricate arrangements. The Kalamazoo quartet has released four LPs and four EPs, and playing countless Great Lakes music festivals. Their album "Don't Go Not Changin'" made several year-end best lists and earned them 3 WYCE Jammy awards, including the Special Jury Prize of album of the year. They come to The Ark with a new album, "Whatever You May Be."

Sarah Shook and The Disarmers (July 7, 2019 7:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/63037 63037-15536929@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Sunday, July 7, 2019 7:30pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)

Inspired by artists such as the Sex Pistols, Elliott Smith, and Hank Williams, Sarah Shook sings with confidence, control, and, at times, a hint of menace. The Disarmers match her, coloring the tales of resilience and empathy with urgency and broad sonic sweep. It’s easy to hear Sarah as a close cousin to artists like Hurray for the Riff Raff and Margo Price, and she makes hard-core country music for a modern time. “You’re as good as gold/ I’m as good as gone,” she sings with a mix of vulnerability and defiance. Says Tidal: "Sarah Shook entered the spotlight as one of the most important new voices in new country music. Like she’s been there all her life."

Organized By: Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)

Greg Brown's mother played electric guitar, his grandfather played banjo, and his father was a Holy Roller preacher in the Hacklebarney section of Iowa. Maybe that last item explains some of his amazing charisma! Greg's first professional singing job came at age 18 in New York City, running hootenannies at the legendary Gerdes Folk City. After a year, Greg moved west to Los Angeles and Las Vegas, where he was a ghostwriter for Buck Ram of the Platters. Over more than four decades on the road, Greg has developed into the essential Midwestern songwriter, with a deep feeling for what makes people and communities hang together. He's a compelling performer, aware that in folk music less is usually more and that the intimate musical detail communicates as well as the grand gesture. It's not so often that we see Greg Brown in southeastern Michigan, so this could be a very scarce ticket!
