SUMMARY:Jimmy Bruno with the Ted Ludwig Trio
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents the Modern Masters Jazz Series: Jimmy Bruno with the Ted Ludwig Trio at Crosstown Arts. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nTuesday\, January 17\, 2023\nDoors open at 7pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $20 in advance | $25 at the door | $10 student tickets at the door \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nJimmy Bruno\, born July 22\, 1953\, in Philadelphia\, Pennsylvania\, is a master jazz guitarist and jazz educator. One of the most critically acclaimed jazz guitarists performing today\, Jimmy Bruno came to prominence as a jazz musician in the 1990s\, after a successful twenty-year career as a sought-after commercial guitarist and session musician. \n“Get on the bus; we leave tonight.” \nThose were the words that began Jimmy Bruno’s professional career as a guitarist. Most of the other guitarists auditioning for Buddy Rich’s band that day in 1973 were getting drumsticks thrown at them\, Buddy’s not-so-subtle way of showing disapproval. But not 19-year-old Jimmy; he got the gig. A Philadelphia native\, he was born into a family no strangers to the music world. Jimmy’s father played guitar on the 1959 hit “Guitar Boogie Shuffle” with Frank Virtue. Jimmy’s mom was a gifted singer. Living in such a musical household\, playing guitar eight to ten hours a day was normal for this south Philly kid. He studied jazz improvisation with local Philly bass legend Al Stauffer and to develop technique\, taught himself to play the rigorous and exacting classical violin etudes of Wohlfahrt and Paganini. Although he briefly considered leveraging his perfect SAT scores into medical school\, a summer guitar gig in Wildwood\, New Jersey\, changed the direction of Jimmy’s life forever\, putting him into the path of Buddy Rich. \nJazz guitarists just don’t come any better. Jimmy Bruno combines a dazzling virtuoso technique with drive and swing to produce\, in concert and on record\, superb and inspired lyrical improvisations. \n—Maurice J. Summerfield\, noted British author of the definitive and highly regarded The Jazz Guitar Guide and The Classical Guitar Guide. \nAfter a whirlwind round-the-world tour as the youngest member of the Buddy Rich Orchestra\, he went on to play guitar in orchestras for Frank Sinatra\, Anthony Newley\, Doc Severinsen\, Lena Horne\, and many more music icons. Additionally he spent many years as an LA session musician working with Tommy Tedesco. But his first love was always jazz\, and by the time he was in his mid-thirties he was ready to come out of the background and into the spotlight. The first step was moving back East. \nPaying his dues by playing blistering guitar in the small clubs and venues around his beloved Philadelphia during the 1980s\, his reputation as one of the hottest guitar players grew. In 1992 he was discovered by Carl Jefferson\, the founder of Concord Records and landed a multi-CD recording deal. Since then\, Jimmy has recorded over 13 critically acclaimed CDs\, including “Sleight of Hand\,” “Like That\,” and “Polarity” (with Joe Beck). His most recent CD “Maplewood Avenue” (Affiliated Artists Records) has been described as having “…a ‘classic’ feel to it… like a famous album we somehow hadn’t discovered yet\,” and was honored by being selected as one of the top CD’s of 2008 by Downbeat magazine. \nIn recognition of his prodigious talents\, Jimmy has been invited to play at major music festivals around the world\, including the JVC\, Berks\, Vail\, and Concord Jazz Festivals\, and a whirlwind stop at the Pescara Jazz Festival in Pescara\, Italy. Over the years\, he has shared the stage with a who’s who of legendary and highly regarded musicians: Joe Beck\, Bobby Watson\, Jack Wilkins\, Tal Farlow (at Farlow’s 75th Birthday Concert)\, Howard Alden\, Christian McBride\, Curt Elling and many more. When a tribute concert was planned for Barney Kessel\, Jimmy was one of an invited group of 30 guitarists chosen to perform and was honored to open the tribute (with Howard Alden). He has also participated in tributes to jazz giants Kenny Burrell\, Herb Ellis and Johnny Smith. \nIn May of 2007\, Jimmy and Affiliated Artists opened the Jimmy Bruno Guitar Institute (JBGI). With his unique insight into jazz and jazz guitar\, Jimmy brought his method and “no nonsense” approach to jazz improvisation to eager guitar students around the world. Five months later\, his long-standing reputation as a jazz educator was further enhanced when he was invited to address and perform at the four-day Jazz Improv Convention in New York City. \nDownbeat magazine — in celebration of their 75th Anniversary in 2009 — named Jimmy as one of the top 75 guitarists of all time! \nIn 2011\, Jimmy created his own independent online jazz guitar school — the Jimmy Bruno Guitar Workshop — with all-new\, improved lesson content and delivery systems to better serve his huge jazz guitar student base around the world. Having spent three years with the Institute\, improving upon and tweaking his teaching method thanks to the direct feedback from his students\, he has once again revolutionized the way students can learn guitar on the Internet.

SUMMARY:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents 3 WOMEN
DESCRIPTION:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents 3 WOMEN at Crosstown Theater. \nRobert Altman / 1977 / 124 minutes / PG \nThursday\, January 19\, 2023\nTickets: $5 at the door\nDoors at 6:30 p.m. | Films begin at 7:00 p.m. (sharp!) at Crosstown Theater \nIn a dusty\, underpopulated California resort town\, a naive Southern waif\, Pinky Rose (Sissy Spacek)\, idolizes and befriends her fellow nurse\, the would-be sophisticate and “thoroughly modern” Millie Lammoreaux (Shelley Duvall). When Millie takes Pinky in as her roommate\, Pinky’s hero worship evolves into something far stranger and more sinister than either could have anticipated. Featuring brilliant performances from Spacek and Duvall\, this dreamlike masterpiece from Robert Altman careens from the humorous to the chilling to the surreal\, resulting in one of the most unusual and compelling films of the 1970s. \nThe Crosstown Arts Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground\, and documentary features.

SUMMARY:Dream Crusher Hope Smasher
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Dream Crusher Hope Smasher in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nSaturday\, January 28\, 2023\nDoors 7 p.m. / Show 7:30 p.m.\nTickets: $20 | $15 in advance \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nDream Crusher Hope Smasher has always been driven by an innate sense of creativity and innovation. Their passion shines through in every note\, drawing in fans from across the universe. Though little is known about the early days of the band\, what is clear is that it was formed long before the rise of the third and fourth dimensions. What we do know is that their music touches people in a way that nothing else can\, with full consent of course. \nSpeaking to a bouncer at a small club at a rare show in Memphis\, Tennessee\, famous old lady Betty Bamboozle\, asking of DCHS’s music\, “What is that?” The bouncer’s response was immediate and clear\, unmasked fear in his voice\, “I don’t know lady. It’s dark\, it’s light\, it’s beautiful\, and it’s horrifying all at the same time.” \nEven less is known of the fans of Dream Crusher Hope Smasher. They are a secret society. An elite club in which membership is granted only to those who truly appreciate the music or pay a small fee or take the band to dinner. However\, the members of the band keep a low profile to avoid being discovered by people from “lesser” dimensions who just wouldn’t understand their genius. \nFrom the depths of the underworld to the farthest reaches of space\, Dream Crusher Hope Smasher has always been one step ahead of the zeitgeist. Their legendary live shows and groundbreaking albums have them cemented as an iconic band in every sense imaginable—just not in your reality.

DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Roosevelt Collier\, with opener Yella P.\, in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nTuesday\, January 31\, 2023\nDoors at 7 pm | Show at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $20 advance | $25 day of the show \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nPedal and lap steel guitar ace Roosevelt Collier\, so proficient he’s affectionately known as “The Dr\,” released his solo debut\, Exit 16\, on GroundUP Music. It’s a potent mix of blues\, gospel\, rock\, and\, in his words\, “dirty funk swampy grime\,” as overseen by producer and Bokanté bandmate Michael League (from the Grammy-winning Snarky Puppy). \nBrought up in the House of God Church in Perrine\, Florida\, Roosevelt built his “sacred steel” guitar prowess alongside his uncles and cousins in The Lee Boys\, known for their spirited\, soul-shaking live performances. On his own\, Collier’s become a sought-after talent both on record and on stage; at festivals\, he is a regular “Artist at Large\,” performing alongside musical luminaries in the fields of rock\, blues and pop\, including the Allman Brothers\, The String Cheese Incident\, Buddy Guy\, Umphrey’s McGee\, Los Lobos\, Robert Randolph\, the Tedeschi-Trucks Band\, and the Del McCoury Band. \nDamion Kereem Pearson\, aka Yella P.\, is a multifaceted artist from Memphis creating a sound rooted in the Delta blues with shades of soul\, gospel\, and hip-hop. Mostly self-taught\, Damion began playing harmonica at age 13\, saving up his lunch money for a month to purchase the instrument. Adding to his arsenal\, Damion later learned to play the guitar\, saxophone\, trombone\, and piano. He got his start on Beale Street playing with “Big” Jerry Parnell.
