SUMMARY:Crosstown Arts Film Series presents ’ROUND MIDNIGHT
DESCRIPTION:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents ’ROUND MIDNIGHT at Crosstown Theater. \nBertrand Tavernier / 1986 / 133 minutes / Rated R\nTickets: $5 at the door\nDoors at 6:30 p.m. | Films begin at 7:00 p.m. (sharp!) at Crosstown Theater \n’ROUND MIDNIGHT is a love letter from director Bertrand Tavernier to the heyday of bebop and the Black American musicians who found refuge in the smoky underground jazz clubs of 1950s Paris. In a sui generis\, Oscar-nominated fusion of performer and character\, legendary saxophonist Dexter Gordon plays Dale Turner\, a brilliant New York jazz veteran whose music aches with beauty but whose personal life is ravaged by addiction. Searching for a fresh start in Paris\, Turner strikes up an unlikely friendship with a struggling single father and ardent jazz fan (François Cluzet) who finds his life transformed as he attempts to help the self-destructive musician. Herbie Hancock’s evocative\, Oscar-winning score sets the mood for this definitive jazz film\, a bittersweet opus that glows with lived-in\, soulful authenticity. \nThe Crosstown Arts Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground\, and documentary features.

SUMMARY:Star & Micey with Jeff Hulett
DESCRIPTION:The Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nThursday\, December 1\, 2022\nDoors at 7 p.m. | Show at 7:30 p.m.\nTickets: $20 | $15 in advance \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nStar & Micey \nOne of Memphis’ most inventive and enduring bands. Formed in 2009\, Star and Micey has toured the US and Canada to play for a select crowd of die hard fans. Called “Tennessee’s Number One Band” by Paste Magazine in 2016 the group has continued to stay humble and live life on their terms. Having never broken up even once\, their relationship onstage is just as genuine offstage. \nLinktree : https://linktr.ee/starandmicey \nJeff Hulett \nFrom the outside\, Jeff Hulett might seem like a late-blooming guitarist and songwriter. But if you ask any of his fellow musicians they’ll tell you he was writing songs and playing music long before he put pen to paper or strummed a chord. \nIn fact\, his first love was not guitar\, but drums. He bought his first kit\, a used Maxx kit at a consignment store in ’96 after watching Fascist Frank & the German Brigade perform at the historic Antenna Club. A memorable Christmas indeed. \nHis sick beats landed him in the band Snowglobe. Over his many years with this Memphis-based institution\, Hulett regularly contributed melodies\, lyrics\, and arrangements to many of the tunes in their prolific cannon. You can even hear a few of his originals in their discography. \nDuring his long tenure with Snowglobe\, Hulett continued to hone his own voice and develop his own creative projects. He began playing guitar more\, and writing his own lyrics. This dedication and passion led to his collaboration with Leah Keys in the band Me & Leah. They released an eponymous and beautiful CD in 2016 featuring nine original folk tunes. Then in 2019\, Me & Leah added Jonathan Schallert to the mix to record and partially release a digital copy of their forthcoming 7 inch Most of Your Life. Both albums were engineered by accomplished mainstays Toby Vest and Pete Mathews of High/Low and Andrew McCalla\, respectively. \nBut it was when the pandemic struck that Hulett really hit his stride as a songwriter. All alone and with nowhere to go\, using an old version of Garageband\, he started creating original tracks and collaborating with more and more musicians\, writers\, and other creators. He was one of the first artists in Memphis—or even the world—to give a voice to our collective feelings when he released his album Safe @ Home with Jacob Church early in the pandemic. That record—a seven-song exploration of the new normal we were all just beginning to live—resonated around the globe. It even landed a spot on The English Show\, a weekly podcast out of Basel\, Switzerland. \nThen\, after going on to release two solo albums on Small Batch Records\, Hulett reconnected with old friends Melissa Goodwin and Adam Poor. They formed the band Restless Townies. Their first album\, Miles Away\, released in April 2021\, and the trio has a new full length album on the way. In this outfit\, all players write and contribute to each other’s songs. \nHe’s also formed his own solo band with Jacob Church\, Jonathan Schallert\, Adam Poor\, and Lehman Sammons. They recorded a 45 at Sun Studios in June which will be out in early 2022. Both songs are further explorations into the storytelling style Hulett continues to live into. \nAs you can see\, Hulett has an endless well of positive energy and creative spirit. He continues to foster his many ongoing collaborations\, but always seems to have more soul in the tank for new projects with new people. \nFor more information\, visit smallbatchrecords.bandcamp.com. You can also follow him at dad_onarrival on Instagram\, JeffHulettMusic on Facebook\, and Jeff Hulett on Twitter. To hear more about his latest albums including some unreleased material\, and previous releases\, check him out on the Shangri-La Records Podcast.

SUMMARY:One Night Only: Mark Edgar Stuart + Blueshift Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:The Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nFriday\, December 2\, 2022\nDoors 7 p.m. | Show 7:30 p.m.\nTickets: $20 | $15 in advance \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nMemphis-based\, Arkansas-born singer-songwriter Mark Edgar Stuart performs a very special concert with Blueshift Ensemble\, a Memphis-based contemporary chamber music ensemble dedicated to bringing artists and audiences together through artistic collaboration. Stuart’s acclaimed songwriting will be paired with all-new arrangements written by Jonathan Kirkscey\, for a one-of-a-kind performance featuring a string quartet\, flute\, clarinet\, oboe\, and upright bass. \nYou’ll have a tough time finding a more widely embraced modern singer-songwriter in Memphis – Mark Edgar Stuart’s enthusiasm about his adopted hometown and what it has to offer is magnetic\, and his songs will stick with you. Quick-witted\, empathetic\, and self-deprecating\, aloof but probably alert of the room tone\, Stuart’s complementary musicality and contagiously honest voice showcase a resilient and relaxed artist\, both sage and seasoned. Grammy-winning music writer/director Robert Gordon is a big fan\, often spinning Mark’s tracks on his weekly radio show\, and other critics agree: “His acerbic wit is reminiscent of John Prine and Randy Newman” (No Depression); “His wry\, cutting view of the world makes something old new again” (Paste); “Always maintaining a tender demeanor\, his songwriting is smart as it is sincere” (Pop Matters). Mark’s stories are sweet but never saccharine\, even-keeled but deeply affecting. He’s lovable and literary\, smart yet plain-spoken\, heartening\, funny\, and always memorable. He sounds new and familiar\, fresh yet timeless. His songs sound like your favorite stories\, retold by a friend.

SUMMARY:“A Lifting of the Veil”: A Winter Solstice Celebration with The Pop Ritual\, and Corrina Repp
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents “A Lifting of the Veil”: A Winter Solstice Celebration with The Pop Ritual\, with Corrina Repp in the Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nWednesday\, December 21\, 2022\nDoors at 7 p.m. | Show at 7:30 p.m.\nTickets: $20 | $15 in advance \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nForming in Memphis\, Tennessee\, in the late summer of 2014\, The Pop Ritual employed an influence of Nine Inch Nails and Ministry’s industrial determination with the psyche-pop sensibilities of Massive Attack to release their first demo—Weak Species—in 2015. The next year was spent establishing live modes locally and on the road in tandem with writing 2017’s Perinde ac Cadaver—a 50-minute self-released endeavor to harness industrial aggression and ambient dynamics. \nAt the end of 2019\, the trio worked with Portuguese/Memphis label Thisco Records (home of such legendary artists as Jarboe and Merzbow) to release It Sheds Again—a 6-track dive into industrial psyche-punk that details evolution amid solipsistic self-destruction both socially and personally. The album has been reviewed as being an “industrial punk cataclysm” with a “rich and grandiose production” [Destroy//Exist 2020]. \nIn light of a canceled US tour\, The Pop Ritual spent the pandemic making progress in new material as well as re-interpretations of their previous works. 2022 includes a return to touring\, the release of new singles\, and a live retrospective in celebration of the Winter Solstice. \nThe Pop Ritual in their current form is Colin Wilson\, Scott Nivens\, and Michelle Karl with special guest Aaron Rude.
