Book Launch Features Bend Creative Writers

he Clockwork Purple Volume 1 book launch will be held at Dudley’s Bookshop Café August 11 at 1pm. This unique anthology features a collection of short stories by local authors from the Bend Creative Writers group. Six authors will each read one selection and be available for autographs.

Clockwork Purple features a collection of 68 short stories and 15 poems, which began on Monday mornings in the summer of 2016 when a small group of friends met at Dudley’s in Bend. They randomly picked a “prompt” from one of the books in the store. Then, they would write for 45 minutes based on that prompt. At the end of the time, they would read their stories aloud to each other without fear of criticism.

LITERARY WORD the

The diversity of content among authors was not only entertaining, it was often healing, thought-provoking and even comical, which encouraged them to publish their collection of stories in Clockwork Purple.

The authors are Aingeal Rose O’Grady, a prolific author of 13 books and an internationally known master reader and teacher of the Akashic Records.

Charles Scamahorn runs the gamut of life experiences from his career as a pilot in the U.S. Air Force to helping found the Berkeley Barb, and sheds light on the prompts with his academic wit. Dell Blackman is an intuitive poet with a gift of simplifying thought-provoking ideas. Harriette Hoover Green has been working as a psychotherapist for over thirty years, while incorporating Quantum Physics into her work, which adds a spiritual dimension to her writing. Kevin O’Grady is a published author and radio host on World of Empowerment Radio.

Linda Kay is a non-fiction author with a background in advertising copy and is now inspired with the challenge of writing fiction. https://clockworkpurple.com

SPOTLIGHT Sunriver Music Festival Orchestra

SUNRIVER MUSIC FEATIVAL A Pioneering Classical Music Festival Thrives In Central Oregon After 40 Years

t was an audacious idea. In 1977 Sunriver residents Doug and Polly Kahle wanted to start a classical music festival in a summer resort using professional musicians from around America, and they would perform in a vintage 1940’s Officers’ Club. Four decades later, the Sunriver Music Festival not only survives, but it is thriving as it announces its fortieth Season, August 11-23, with a full slate of classical concerts, pops concert, solo piano concert, master classes, music workshops, family concert, open rehearsals and parties. “What was an unproven festival idea has now become a year-long celebration of professional music in Central Oregon,” explains Executive Director Pam Beezley. “In fact, unofficially we kicked off our season with several events this winter and we are now conducting our very first twoday Piano Showcase in Bend at the Tower Theatre, March 24-25.” While the original festival only performed in Sunriver, this summer you can enjoy performances in Sunriver and Bend. Artistic Director and Conductor George Hanson returns for his sixth season to lead the Sunriver Music Festival Orchestra. As a symphony and opera conductor, pianist, recording artist, television host, educator, community leader, fundraiser and passionate spokesman for the arts, Hanson is helping shape the changing role of the modern music director. Musicians from prestigious orchestras throughout the U.S. are currently being handpicked by Maestro Hanson for the summer season. Four classical concerts, a pops concert, a solo piano concert and a family concert highlight this year’s offering. Renowned pianist Sean Chen returns for three performances. The Central Oregon Mastersingers will also perform the beautiful Mozart Requiem. Young Artists Scholarship winner Courtney Huffman, soprano, will perform with the Mastersingers, joined by mezzo-soprano Hannah Penn, tenor David Gustafson and baritone Zachary Lenox.

Heathers: The Musical Hits the Stage at 2nd Street

he team that brought you Evil Dead the Musical 2015 and Hand to God, Stage Right Productions and Lonely Fish Productions present Heathers: The Musical, September 1-16 at 2nd Street Theater. Heathers is directed by Scott Schultz with music direction by Karen Sipes and choreography by Mary Hildebrandt.

Many productions of Heathers: The Musical work in association with local and national suicide prevention and anti bullying organizations. The Heathers Bend production team will be working with Deschutes County Health Department Suicide Prevention by attending a training session and offering resources during the run of the show.

The show is based off the 1989 cult film Heathers written by Daniel Waters, starring Winona Ryder and Christian Slater. Heathers: The Musical performed Off-Broadway in 2014. The lyrics, music and book were written by Laurence O’Keefe (Legally Blonde: The Musical) and Kevin Murphy (Reefer Madness: The Musical).

Tickets are available at www.2ndstreettheater.com. $25 for adults and $22 for seniors/students. Performances are Thursdays through Saturdays at 7:30pm with two 3pm Sunday Matinees.

Heathers: The Musical tells the story of high schooler Veronica Sawyer who finds herself on the inside with the popular girls Heather, Heather and Heather, the ruthless clique at Westerberg High. Along with the football jocks, they rule the school, making life a living hell for anyone who crosses them or their path. But before she can get comfortable atop the high school food chain, Veronica falls in love with the dangerously sexy new kid J.D. (Matthew Vigil). When Heather Chandler (AnyssaBohanan), the Almighty, kicks her out of the group, Veronica and J.D. plot the end of The Heathers. “Since the first time I heard the music of Heathers: The Musical I was personally touched. I could relate to the themes of bullying, teen suicide and self-acceptance, as these were personal struggles I dealt with in high school,” said Director Schultz. “Familiarized with the 1988 cult classic film at a young age (my mother was a huge fan), I knew that I had to bring this show to Central Oregon. Being no stranger to cult classics having previously directed Evil Dead the Musical and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, I understand the importance of embodying the themes that audiences recognize and expect.”

This juried exhibition of fine art depictions of the western U.S. by contemporary artists kicked off in July with a first view opportunity where guests were able to place a bid or purchase a beautiful piece of artwork outright. “We’re thrilled by the number of pieces submitted for consideration and the caliber of the works,” said Executive Director Dana Whitelaw, Ph.D. The Curator’s Choice Award went to Michael Blessing for his piece The Long Arm of the Law and the Jury’s Choice Award to Ben Pease for his piece, Honor and Respect Come to Thee. These works, as well as pieces by popular artists Rod Frederick, Dawn Emerson, Ken Roth, Barbara Slater, Xiaogang Zhu, Colt

Art in the West culminates with the silent auction at the High Desert Rendezvous, the Museum’s signature annual fundraising gala, on August 26 from 5-9:30pm. A rip-roaring night of dinner, live and silent auctions, raffle, gambling, hosted saloon and dancing helps support Museum programs. The evening event is the final chance to bid on art in the juried exhibition Art in the West.

“Rendezvous is a perfect opportunity for members and friends to gather together to celebrate our past accomplishments and support the future success of the Museum,” said Whitelaw. “This year marks the Museum’s 35th anniversary and we know this amazing resource couldn’t exist without the continued support of generous donors, sponsors, members and visitors from around the world.” Big Sky Glow by Colt Idol

Raven Makes Gallery Sisters Contemporary Native American Basket Weavers

ohn Wayne’s iconic Westerns Stagecoach and The Searchers were filmed along the Arizona and Utah border in Monument Valley, a breathtaking expanse of sheer walled red rock mesas, buttes and spires. Here, Forrest Gump ceased his crosscountry run and Clint Eastwood climbed a spire known as Totem Pole for the film The Eiger Sanction. Timeless formations—Right and Left Mitten, Three Sisters, Elephant Butte, North Window—rise up from the stark surrounding earth so dramatically that Hollywood regularly returns. This area lies within the Homelands of the Navajo (Dine) People who have lived here 500 years and in 1964 made Monument Valley the largest Tribal Park in the United States. Moon Basket by Elsie Holiday

It also happens to be the home of some of the greatest contemporary Native American basket weavers. Those aware of American Indian basketry might think of vintage Apache, Hopi or Papago works of the Southwest or antique baskets of California Tribes—Pomo, Washoe and Paiute. Many collectors view these as the classics of Native American basketry. Yet, the adage—Tradition is not still, like a stagnant pond. It is alive and moving, passing from one generation to the next, like a flowing stream.—is sometimes better understood by Native American Peoples and artists than it is by Native American scholars and art collectors.

Inverse Ceremony Basket by Peggy Black

For instance, Navajo rugs, jewelry and baskets made 50 or 100 years ago, prevalent in museums and Native American antique galleries, need to be regarded as representing people of a former time. When those works were being made, however,

THE ARTS

many were considered to be contemporary, even cutting edge. Navajo Ceremonial Baskets have long served as items representing sacredness. Once a basket of this type has been used in a ceremony, it tends to remain within the extended family. By 1960, as had occurred in a number of other tribes, the making of new baskets was declining, only 10-15 Navajo weavers were active. At this time, a young Navajo woman, Mary Holiday Black, began weaving. Mary Double Ceremony Basket by Peggy Black would become so accomplished she helped revive the craft while elevating it to a well-respected level of art. Fortuitously, Twin Rocks Trading Post, just 50 miles down the road in Bluff, Utah, opened in the mid ‘80s. The Simpson brothers recognized her talent and became renowned patrons for and traders of Mary Black’s works, encouraging and financing the innovative styles that define contemporary Native American basketry. Today, Mary seldom weaves and her next generation of daughters and daughters-in-law—Lorraine Black, Elsie Holiday, Sally Black, Peggy Black, Agnes Gray—have continued her legacy. It is as if the baskets are now canvasses upon which these weavers have painted. The difficulty arises from the palette, consisting of sumac and the image being made at the very same moment. The works that these weavers endeavor to produce have elevated basketry from a utilitarian craftwork to an artisan medium. They are as gorgeous and inspiring as the surrounding landscape from which they come.

Raise a Glass to Support Redmond’s Kids

Inaugural Redmond BrewFest

he Beer Stop in Redmond announces the Inaugural Redmond BrewFest being held at American Legion Park in Redmond on Friday, August 18 and Saturday, August 19 from 12pm–10pm will benefit four local Redmond organizations that help the children in the community. This beer lover’s festival is serving up more than 300 unique beers, ciders, kombucha and wine from 84 local, regional and national breweries and beverage producers. Enjoy a family friendly event with vendors and food, free fun and free live music throughout the two day festival. Redmond BrewFest will feature a VIP tent, headlining bands, special edition brews from selected breweries and cider producers, as well as an Eclipse Themed beer competition. A portion of the proceeds will go to Redmond Area Parks and Recreation District (RAPRD), REACH, Rock of Redmond Wrestling Club and the Redmond Parks Foundation. An event like this doesn’t come with its own staff. The Redmond BrewFest staff is recruiting anyone over the age of 21 to volunteer for a five hour shift. “We are looking to recruit 600 Beer Heroes, what the brewfest refers to as volunteers, to assist with their goal. “With six scheduled shifts to fill we could use all the help we can get,” stated JT Taylor, Redmond Brewfest executive director.

et ready to raise a pint and toast all things craft beer for the 15th annual Bend Brewfest, scheduled for August 10-12 (12pm –11pm) at the Les Schwab Amphitheater in Bend. Traditionally held the third weekend of August in Bend’s Old Mill District, this year’s event was moved up a week to avoid the highly anticipated solar eclipse, which will pass over Central Oregon on August 21. The Bend Brewfest showcases some of the most innovative breweries in the country, large and small. West Coast heavyweights Deschutes, Lagunitas and Sierra Nevada will once again be at the Bend Brewfest, as will regional favorites like Crux, pFriem, Fremont and Hopworks Urban Brewery. Craft beer aficionados will have the chance to sample some of the Pacific Northwest’s smaller standouts such as Sedition Brewing of The Dalles, Oregon; Ashtown Brewing from Longview, Washington and Incline Cider Company of Auburn, Washington. Overall, more than 200 beers, ciders and wine will be showcased during the festival. One of the yearly highlights at the Bend Brewfest is its X-Tap program. Essentially a specialty beer festival within the Bend Brewfest itself, the X-Tap program is reserved for small batch and experimental beers. The X-Taps are where festivalgoers can indulge in big barrel-aged beers like Anderson Valley’s Wild Turkey Bourbon Barrel Aged Salted Caramel Porter or Deschutes Brewery’s Black Butte XXVII, both of which will be on tap at this year’s Brewfest. The 2017 X-Tap program includes a number of hard-to-find sour and farmhouse ales, such as pFriem’s Kumquat Farmhouse Ale, Buoy’s Benedict Cumberbatch and Boneyard’s Gooze Cruze. Approximately fourty breweries and cider houses are participating in this year’s X-Tap program. When visitors drink beer at the Bend Brewfest, they’re helping the community. This year’s charity beneficiaries will be the Deschutes River Conservancy, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Oregon, NeighborImpact and the Bend Fire Community Assistance Program. More than 1,000 volunteers power the Brewfest. To be become a volunteer, visit the website and sign up for a four-hour shift. In addition to having a great time while helping several great causes, you’ll receive a T-shirt, mug and tasting tokens. www.bendbrewfest.com

Join us in Redmond, this August 18th and 19th, for a few days to enjoy some deliciously crafted beverages knowing you helped to raise funds to support children-centered organizations in the area. Then spend a beer lover’s weekend with us celebrating the upcoming eclipse event. Don’t forget your glasses! Jenni Garner at redmondbeerhero@gmail.com www.RedmondBrewFest.com

THE ARTS “Now I’m trying to do more expressing and less describing.

Wierzba spent a lot of time matching the colors and shapes to what she saw in the landscape.

There is an inner life to nature, more than what we see. We all feel that in different ways, and I’m trying to put that emotion onto the canvas. I have a strong faith in God and get excited about all of His creations.” Currently she is working on a series of barns which give her the opportunity to paint intriguing light patterns while documenting history and a sense of mystery.

Shelly Wierzba The Barn Affair

eveloping a passion for plein air painting can happen at any point in an artist’s career. For Bend artist Shelly Wierzba, this occurred about six years ago. Painting on location fed her desire to constantly challenge herself to learn new ways to approach a painting and grow as an artist. “Painting outdoors is enormously different from working in my studio. First I had to learn to deal with the heat and the cold, the wind, the buzzing things that are so annoying, as well as the changing appearance of shapes and colors due to the moving light. Also, painting in public places requires speaking to curious people who want to see what you are doing.”

“It seems all painters paint barns. I’ve avoided that until now, and have found it to be a very exciting subject. Not only am I challenged about how to fit the structure into a good design, but how to express its inner life. I participate in a September plein air competition in Roseburg, Oregon every year and one of the sites is a homestead that dates back to the early settlers. There are hundreds of acres with original buildings that inspire me to capture their character and their secrets. ” Wierzba’s new work can be seen at the Red Chair Gallery in Bend.

Her current work includes a variety of images including seasonal Buddhas, crows and Mexican folk art. “I am deeply grateful to be living this chapter of my life as an artist. Each day that I am able to paint and create art, feels like a priceless gift. In my art, I try to capture those moments when we feel most fully alive…those poignant moments of grace and truth. To me, those moments represent the fullness of life…and isn’t that what we’re really all here for?” Erin sells her original canvas paintings as well as giclee reproductions mounted on cradled birch panels.

At Franklin Crossing, she exhibits both birds and other creatures noting, “Animals have always given me a sense of peace and calm, so their images constantly inspire me. In the years that I’ve been painting animals, I have never tired of this subject I love.” She draws from memories and imagination to create paintings that show animals’ behaviors and habitats. In her recent watercolor paintings, young goats romp in Goatees’ Playground, and little quail chicks scuttle around. Slater, creator of oil paintings for over 40 years,

exhibits her portraits of horses, goats, chickens and cows that convey personalities on canvas. More recently, wildlife such as her Coyote Twins, Lil Big Foot, a snowshoe rabbit (so named for the large hind feet which prevent sinking into snow when jumping), ravens and other creatures appear in her imagery. Her life-like images portray warmth and reflect her admiration and respect for her subjects. The artist notes “I paint what I love, striving to paint passionate paintings…. not just workable paintings. I have a heart-felt connection to my 'Lil Big Foot by Barbara Slater work.”The prestigious Richard Schmid Art Auction, acknowledging her painting excellence, juried her into four successive exhibitions and, in 2011, the auctioneer elevated her art to the live auction.

Oxford Hotel 10 NW Minnesota Ave., 541-382-8436 Magical Realism featuring acrylic paintings by Susan Busik. The artist will attend the champagne opening on First Friday. Learning in her early 40s of her Mexican ancestry, the artist made a radical shift from abstract art to Magical Praying Madonna Realism, desiring to connect to her roots. The artist’s by Susan Busik allegorical imagery, symbolizing her cultural heritage, expresses the perceived world revealed through magical elements. Her over-scale, glowing moons light moss covered tree trunks surrounded by multiple spiraling dots of brilliant color, symbols of a spiritual presence descending into our material world. Elaborately detailed Madonnas with devoutly pressed hands, serene but surreal in appearance, close their eyes in prayer. The artist’s subjects, with their dominant bright color and design, allude to the mystical reality of traditional Mexican folk art. Differing acutely from Busik’s early abstract imagery, these folk art subjects demanded a new vision and new techniques. The lobby exhibition is open all hours.

Summer in the High Desert: JM Brodrick, MaryLea Harris, Karen Ruane

unriver Resort Lodge Betty Gray Gallery continues Summer in the High Desert featuring JM Brodrick, MaryLea Harris and Karen Ruane through September 6. Abstract acrylic painter Harris works in series exploring relationships, color and texture as in her latest Map Series. This series considers our relationships between physical place, connection and our collective personal journeys. Not actual places, the maps consider “home” and its personal meaning the structure in which one sleeps or lived as a child, one’s town or the planet. Adding that these commonalities of our lives join humans, the artist hopes viewers, through her art, reflect upon where they’ve been and where they’re headed. A Virginia native, she received studio art and art history degrees from Sweet Briar College and later earned a master of fine arts in painting from Virginia C om m onwe a l t h University. Harris fostered creativity in children working at the National Gallery of Art, Department of Teacher and School Programs and interned with an art therapist

Strong Standing by JM Brodrick

August 2017 | www.CascadeAE.com

in the children’s oncology ward at Georgetown Hospital’s Lombardi Cancer Center. These formative experiences launched her sharing arts education with kids for over 15 years. She developed an award winning blog about children’s arts and crafts (Pink and Green Mama Blog) and authored ten art lesson eBooks continuing in use by educators and caregivers of children throughout the United States and abroad. Now a Bend full time artist, Harris credits her daughters, Emma and Claire, as role models in creativity and imagination, inspiring her to make vulnerable and honest art. Artist Karen Ruane’s career began as a figurative painter working with acrylics. She worked quickly creating large scale work celebrating the beauty and strength of the female form. Motivated by her “Type A approach” to finish a painting in a single session, she often felt frustration and depression. She moved on to more satisfying creative practices. Then, watching a marbler in action, she became “paralyzed with intrigue.” Viewing colors spattered on to a viscous, fluid surface, tools dragged across the surface to organize the paint into patterns, she observed the push/pull between the artist’s control and the physics and flow of the medium. Appreciating variables beyond the artist’s control, she eagerly worked with marbling for several years, sometimes creating the papers in as little as five minutes. Loss of the artist’s control enabled her to “love paint and creating again,” also fulfilling her desire for rapid results. Art again became a therapeutic meditation. This ease in creating lead to her exploration of other fluid mediums including flow acrylic paints and, most recently, alcohol inks and resin. All satisfy her desire and need to create, while also satisfying the paramount urge for tranquility. Continuing in these mediums, it is absence from her studio that causes anxiety; “I am at my happiest and most centered when I am making art!” Featured in July, JM Brodrick’s displayed paintings depict horses, as seen in the May 2017 issue of American Art Collector, Collector’s Focus, Art of the Horse. Sunriver Resort invites the public to the exhibition. Open all hours. Billye Turner organizes the Lodge art series, info at 503-780-2828 or billyeturner@bendnet.com.

Artists’ Gallery Summer Pleasures

here are m a n y activities to enjoy in Sunriver and one of the best is spending time with local artists at the Artists’ Gallery. In fact, on Saturday August 12, 4-6pm visitors can share food and drink while Elk Lake Morning by Laura Jo Sherman partying with the artists. The gallery is proud to present several new artists as well as all of the old favorites. Husband and wife glass artists, Jeff and Heather Thompson, have been creating sculpture from hot molten glass for over 17 years. The duo is a long time favorite at the gallery. Their pieces range from large complicated sea creatures to modern wall installations. There is even something for collectors without a lot of display space left in their homes. Always popular are beautiful hand blown Quail and other Central Oregon birds, or perhaps a whimsical heart paper weight. It is always interesting to talk with the artists about the combination of science and art that it takes to create this beautiful work. New to the gallery this summer is furniture artist Jim Fister, an active volunteer and wellrecognized face in the Sunriver area. Having recently left a long career in the high-tech industry, the artist has embraced a decidedly low-tech approach to the creation of his art. Using primarily small hand tools, Fister works with wood, stone and metal to create unique natural edge furniture pieces. He utilizes the rustic character of the materials to create functional conversation pieces that serve a utilitarian purpose. Jim is happy to work with you to build a specific item that fits your size and space constraints. He also provides custom framing for other art pieces.

Smith Rock Climber by Bill Hamilton

paintings of birds and animals. Hamilton really shines when painting local Central Oregon landmarks such as scenes in downtown Bend and surrounding natural landscapes. When asked about a painting of Smith Rock, the artist claimed to have snapped an inspirational photo as he fell 40 feet from the face of the rock. While just a good story, he did produce a beautiful piece of art that captures the beauty of that area. Bill has many more good stories that he would like to share with you when you visit the gallery. The gallery includes pastel painter Laura Jo Sherman who moved to Oregon 17 years ago from New York. She pursued a career in teaching art for 33 years and was only able to concentrate on her own painting career after retirement. With great energy, Sherman established herself as a multi award winning artist. Ten years ago she was accepted as a signature member to the prestigious Pastel Society of America — no small achievement. Subject matter for the artist is varied, but it is easy to see her love for animals, local scenes and the beauty of small things. Sherman says that her favorite subjects can be found in the backyard. She is a devoted plein air (outdoors) painter. Each painting grabs the viewers interest with thousands of energetic pastel strokes. Subjects vibrate with color and life. Most of the artist’s paintings are relatively small so there is always room for one on any collectors wall. Artists’ Gallery Sunriver Village Building 19 541-593-4382 www.artistsgallerysunriver.com

The Cosmic Calculator The Art of Alfred A. Dolezal

n Monday, August 21, a total solar eclipse will be visible along a path stretching across North America. During this period, the sun will be in the constellation, Leo, symbolized by the head of the lion in the clouds. In a darkened room, with the use of fluorescent paint, only the eclipse and the stars may be seen. Solar eclipses are significant astronomical and spiritual events. The exactitude of calculations in regard to the eclipse’s path and duration highlights mankind’s increasing knowledge about the universe. However, the barrier of darkness that obscures the light may be perceived as frightening or negative as all living beings are dependent on the sun. The energetic effects of an eclipse will be noticed two to three days prior to the event and both positive and negative emotions will be heightened. This powerful phenomenon presents the opportunity to turn within and balance our own consciousness, being especially mindful of our thoughts, words and actions. It is also the perfect time to offer our individual strengths to benefit all of mankind and the welfare of the whole universe. The Art of Alfred A. Dolezal 541-526-1185 www.alfreddolezal.com

Fiber Art Quilts, Fused Glass & Watercolor Portraits

hrough September, the Redmond Library will have an array of art in several mediums, fiber, fused glass and watercolor paintings created by local artists. Fiber art quilts will be displayed by two Central Oregon groups, Undercover Quilters Book Club and The High Desert Quilt Guild. The Undercover Quilters Book Club, a local book club/quilters group will be showing their art quilts based on the book The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. Each artist brings a different image to life from their reaction to this novel. The High Desert Quilt Guild of Redmond will exhibit an amazing variety of quilts from several of its members. Laurel Werhane creates beautiful fused glass art works. She uses highquality glass and materials specializing in bright and colorful handcrafted designs while continuing to experiment with new glass art techniques. Laurel’s latest creations were inspired by the passing of the family dog, Gus. She began designing affordable fused pendants, pocket memorial stones and plates sprinkled with the ashes of beloved pets. Laurel meets with each family to hear stories and admire photos of their beloved pet. She then customizes her art to fit their special sense of style and design. Her memorial keepsakes help heal the heart and keep memories close. You can see more of Laurel’s work on the Facebook page GoodLife Glass. Art has been a life-long interest for Lawrence Koppy. He is a member of Plein Air Painters of Oregon and enjoys painting with watercolors for their unpredictable nature which, with some practice, still allows a certain amount of control. Koppy’s solo exhibition in the Silent Reading Room will feature his characterization of five famous gunfighters. Oregon’s Only Arts Magazine Since 1995 | August 2017

Hallelujah! New 10 Barrel Pub Hits Bend Eastside by LINDEN GROSS, One Stop Writing Shop hen you live on the eastside of Bend, a brew pub opening within walking distance is cause for celebration. Add awesome food to the mix and, well, can I hear a hallelujah? Our Saturday early lunch started on the outdoor patio with three dogs parked under the table and two stellar beverages—10 Barrel’s light cider that’s reminiscent of sparkling wine and a margarita with mezcal (yes, 10 Barrel is serving cocktails again) and jalapeño. Not a bad way to launch the weekend. Little did we know how much better our day was about to get. Despite an uninspired description, we decided to order the Spicy Shrimp appetizer along with some fried pickles since my friends hadn’t ever tried the latter. Even though the tasty fried pickles were crunchy salt bombs and I like salt, I’m still not convinced that I need to eat fried pickles ever again. On the other hand, I’m already figuring out when I can go back for the shrimp. The perfectly tender and barely translucent prawns coated in a fragrant ginger, black bean and lemon grass sauce atop a sweet chili rice cake were simply divine. If you like seafood and Asian flavors, you owe it to yourself to go to 10 Barrel East Side just for this one dish. Of course, while you’re there you probably need to order a burger as well. “That was the best burger I’ve ever had,” a man announced to me as he was leaving the pub a few weeks ago. After tasting the Pubhouse Burger, I understand his enthusiasm. The custom blend of chuck and Wagyu beef make for a fat and juicy patty, that’s actually cooked pretty darn rare if that’s how you order it. Add in some Applewood-smoked bacon, tiny onion rings fried to a crisp, cheddar cheese and A-1 sauce and you’ve got a party on a bun. Since the special burger of the day featured grilled

peaches, we asked if we could try those and promptly started dreaming of how we could muddle the slightly charred and scrumptious fruit in a rum or whiskey cocktail—in addition to ordering a side each and every visit should the grilled peaches wind up on the regular menu. (Hint, hint!) We enjoyed everything else we tried, including the Fish & Chips (super fresh-tasting pacific cod in a light, crunchy Sasquatch ale batter) as well as the red and yellow beet and fennel salad with arugula, goat cheese, candied hazelnuts tossed in a mustardy 10 Barrel East Side spicy shrimp with a glass of cider Photo by Linden Gross sherry vinaigrette. The pizza toppings on the Bangkok Pie special were spot on. In fact, the zesty sriracha lime base topped with chicken, pepper jack, pepperoni, mama lil’s peppers, cilantro and fried onions reminded me of The Rocky sandwich I had a couple of months ago, which is as large as it is delicious. My friends found the medium-thick crust to be a little doughy, but I appreciated the wood-fired taste. Beyond full, we still found room to try the peach cobbler special. Served in a cast iron pan, baked peaches were topped with a cake that tasted like a cross between buttery shortbread and a cinnamon-accented biscuit along with a scoop Tillamook vanilla bean ice cream. The dessert was a hands-down winner, just like the rest of our meal. 10 Barrel Brewing Company – East Side 62950 NE 18th St., Bend 541-241-7733 https://10barrel.com/pub/bend-east General Manager: Tabor Bradley Hours: 11am-11pm Sunday-Thursday, 11am-midnight, Friday-Saturday Oregon’s Only Arts Magazine Since 1995 | August 2017

Appaloosa Releases Open Range Eclectic Mix of Country & Folk Music

ocal Americana band, Appaloosa, has released their third CD, Open Range. This time around, though, there is a difference: everything was done by the Duo of Dottie and Eli Ashley. They wrote all the songs, performed all the vocals and played all the instruments for this project, which was recorded at Dale Largent Recording in Bend. An eclectic mix of country and folk music, the Duo has taken on an oldWestern and hometown vibe with such songs as The Hanging Noose (a bluegrassy story about the town of Laidlaw), Wheeline (irrigation lines in Tumalo) and Heartburn and Little Town (two country love songs). Also true to their Folk roots, they have protest songs about religion, thievery and money: Preacher, Robbers and Thieves, Ain’t Gonna Let You Fall and Two Black Crows. For a total of 15 new songs from these singer-songwriters, Open Range is a wonderful addition to their previous recordings. From dogs barking and mando chopping and sweet harmonies and piano arpeggios, this album has a little something for everyone.

Melissa Etheridge at Deschutes County Fair

elissa Etheridge has done some pretty gutsy things in her stellar career. She’s shown no fear in forthrightly standing up for her truths, both in her songs and her life. But as an artist, she’s never quite laid it on the line like she does on Memphis Rock and Soul, released in October 2016 via Stax Records. Sure, she’s sung songs by some of her biggest heroes before. But Otis Redding? Mavis Staples? Sam and Dave? Rufus Thomas? These are some of the names, some of the voices of music at the pinnacle of an era in American music, the people indelibly identified with the songs on this album.

Munch & Music Concerts in Drake Park

very Thursday through August 10, Bendites can enjoy free music in Drake Park.

Deschutes Too Slim l Photo courtesy of Munch & Music Brewery Libation Station will be available with beer, wine and cocktails. August 3: Too Slim and the Taildraggers have created an eclectic style of blues and rock that has become a genre all its own. The band’s ever evolving musical direction cannot be classified into any box or category. The eclectic nature of the band allows Too Slim and the Taildraggers to easily crossover and appeal to audiences of various musical tastes. In 2012, Tim Too Slim Langford relocated from Seattle to Nashville, Tennessee. Too Slim is backed by the some of the best musicians Nashville has to offer, Eric Hanson on Bass and Jeff “Shakey” Fowlkes on Drums/Vocals. August 10: Pigs on the Wing Imagine the energy and electric intensity of Dark Side of the Moon era Pink Floyd in an intimate theater or rock club environment. Hailing from Portland, Oregon, Pigs on the Wing has been delivering just that spellbinding experience to wide-ranging audiences since 2006. Pigs on the Wing brings an intense, high energy experience to the table that is both true to the original and unapologetic in its interpretation, something which the band members believe has set it apart from the other tributes from the very beginning.
