OPINION

Views from your community

50 years after his assassination, Robert F. Kennedy still represents the type of leadership we need

By Jalen Elrod The 1960s were a tumultuous time in the story of America. The oppression and brutality of Jim Crow. The pain of American lives lost on battlefields abroad. The shackles of poverty barring so many from prosperity. All of that history forced a reckoning in America in that decade.

Looking back, we remember those who marched and died to end segregation that rendered black Americans as second-class citizens and forced America to question whether the ideal of “all men are created equal” was reflected in its reality. We remember the beginnings of the War on Poverty that was never won. We remember the protests over the Vietnam War and the lives of American service members lost.

We remember the leaders and those who this nation has made icons who were lost in those years.

Robert F. Kennedy was one of those leaders.

It’s been 50 years since Sen. Kennedy was assassinated, shot down in his campaign for the presidency. Those who remember this time tell me they remembered the hope he engendered during his campaign in 1968, a hope that nearly matched the angst and pain they felt when he was taken. Like so many leaders before him in that decade.

As Americans, we have a tendency to put our faith in men rather than values. We feel the urge to give devotion to leaders we see as upholding an ideal as opposed to being devoted to the ideal itself. We’ve done that with Kennedy, remembering him as a beacon and not as a man.

Kennedy was a man who in his younger years worked for Sen. Joseph McCarthy during the latter’s false Red Scare. As U.S. attorney general, Kennedy ordered the wiretapping of Martin Luther King Jr. and other civil rights leaders.

In 1963, Kennedy called on acclaimed author James Baldwin to organize a now infamous meeting with black Americans aimed at improving race relations in the United States. It was in this meeting Kennedy engaged in a heated argument with a young civil rights activist named Jerome Smith. Smith had seen some of the worst of what Jim Crow had to offer people who looked like him. He’d been beaten by police in Mississippi for his activism. He’d endured white mobs in his participation in the Freedom Rides. The young man told Kennedy he would “never, never, never” join the military to fight for America.

Kennedy took great offense. He couldn’t comprehend why a black man would not feel at all compelled to give his life for a country that told him over and over again that the lives of those who looked like him didn’t matter.

For complete SAIL results, photos, and rankings, go to GreenvilleJournal.com/SAIL

Yet, like the American people themselves, Kennedy grew. As he became a United States senator, he came to understand through the valor of the foot soldiers of the civil rights movement that he had an obligation to use the privileges life had afforded him to fight for justice. He would travel to impoverished communities around the country, seeing the abysmal living conditions of those who the wealthiest nation in the world left behind and became driven to change it. He would see the quagmire of the Vietnam War for what it was.

All of these challenges that faced the nation fueled Kennedy’s presidential campaign in 1968. Of his running, he said, “I do not run for the presidency merely to oppose any man, but to propose new policies. I run because I am convinced that this country is on a perilous course and because I have such strong feelings about what must be done, and I feel that I’m obliged to do all I can.”

In his campaign, he brought together coalitions of black Americans, Hispanics, and impoverished voters and became seen by many as the champion of those forgotten in this nation. A champion last seen in triumph after his win in the California Democratic primary in 1968, only to be struck down moments later.

The 1960s ended with a sense of hopelessness for many Americans. It seems the great victories of the decade came with a price.

Martin Luther King Jr. Malcolm X. Kennedy’s own brother, President John F. Kennedy.

All slain by an assassin’s bullet. All seen as beacons yet, at times, not like imperfect men. Robert F. Kennedy was such a man. He was flawed. He was privileged and abused his power. But like America, he grew. He saw wrong and tried to right it. He saw suffering and tried to heal it.

In this present time in America where so many feel forgotten and without hope, it is incumbent upon each American to set out to make this nation more closely align with its ideals. Like Kennedy, we are flawed but must rise up anyhow to fight for those ideals.

Jalen Elrod is the president of the Greenville Young Democrats.

I’m Not Ready.

Yeah... that’s what our members said too.

One local nonprofit views life in foster care through a child’s eyes

FOSTERING GREAT IDEAS

Words by Melody Wright | Photo by Will Crooks

Scared. Alone. Confused.

Removed from the certainty of the familiar and placed in the world of unknowns, most children entering foster care fear the upcoming journey.

Last year, more than 437,000 children in the U.S. lived in foster care, according to data from the Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System.

Children are placed in foster care after being removed from their homes for a variety of reasons (often abuse, neglect, incarceration, drug abuse, or voluntary placement).

Moving from home to home with their belongings in trash bags, children in foster care can easily forget their worth. “It’s awful,” Jasmine Brockman says. “It makes you feel like we’re trash.” Brockman lived in

21 different homes during her seven to eight years in foster care. For every move up until she moved into her adopted home, she carried her belongings in trash bags.

“They were put in a situation that was out of their control, and they’re kids just like everybody else,” Hope Woford says of children in foster care. “They want their families back. They want someone to love and care about them.” Woford lived in care for about four years before she was adopted at the age of 13.

Brockman and Woford are just two of many people who have grown up or are growing up in foster care.

They have this in common with one another, as well as the children they now work with at Fostering Great Ideas in Greenville.

The initial idea FGI founder and CEO David White asked a question eight years ago to a Department of Social Services director in Brick Street Café. “Can our community do significantly more to improve the lives of children who live in foster care?”

After three listening sessions in 2010 with great responses form the community, FGI developed in 2011 under guidance from the Community Foundation of Greenville. One year later, FGI operated on its own as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.

“By 2015, we hired our first program staff, and now, we have 11 part-time staff, myself, over 400 volunteers, 225 donors, and operations in Greenville, Spartanburg, and Denver, Colorado,” White explains.

As an individual and an entrepreneur, White is most concerned about what matters to the children in care.

“We are the entrepreneurial complement to the current DSS system of care,” White says. “And the entrepreneurial complement always asks that question of how to change the life of the child in a stressed environment.”

The driving forces

Brockman and Woford use their personal experiences to help in this effort. Brockman manages the mentor program, Life Support. And, Woford manages a component of the program called College Fellows for those ages 17 and up.

For Brockman, the mentoring program was crucial. Being a mentee herself, she formed a strong relationship with her mentor, who is now her mother. “It was a really life-changing experience for me and it did save me personally.”

“It’s amazing what just having one committed relationship can do for a kid,” Brockman says. A lot of children in foster care are viewed as “troubled kids,” she says, and some children begin to believe that for themselves.

“So, the fact that if a person commits, it’s like, ‘What do they see that I don’t see in myself?’ Then they start thinking, ‘Well, I must be pretty amazing for this person to actually love me and be committed,’” Brockman says.

“Then, they start changing their mindset, which then makes them change how they want their life to be.”

As part of her job, Brockman reads the reports from mentors of the program, and she says it often brings her to tears of gratitude for the mentors.

“ They were put in a situation that was out of their control, and they’re kids just like everybody else.

They want their families back. They want someone to love and care about them.”

– Hope Woford

“I just want to be like, ‘Thank you for giving these kids a chance and a voice and actually making them see that they are worth everything good,’” she says. “The life that they had in the beginning wasn’t because it was their choice. I feel like [children in foster care] deserve goodness.”

Woford also witnesses the positive difference FGI makes in these children’s lives. Growing up as an older sister protecting her younger siblings, Woford understands the struggles of siblings being separated in foster care.

She saw her brother once and never saw her baby sister during her four years in foster care. “Not seeing them every day, not seeing them every month, just going years, it’s awful and it’s not fair,” Woford says. “So, I think SibLink bringing them together once a month is fantastic. I think it’s one of the best programs for sure.”

Working with College Fellows, Woford stresses the importance of supporting children wishing to pursue a college education. “I think our College Fellows’ mission

10 | GREENVILLE JOURNAL | 06.08.2018 GREENVILLEJOURNAL.COM ultimately is every child, every young adult deserves to go to college if they want to, whether they’re in foster care or not.”

Through Greenville Technical College making its aggregate data available, Woford discovered that she was the only graduating student in four years who self-identified as coming from foster care. This astonishing graduation rate for children in care inspired the creation of College Fellows.

Children in foster care may be untrusting and difficult to reach at first due to the instability in their lives.

But, Woford says, once you get past that point and they see that you keep coming back, the children begin to open up. They think, “OK, maybe this person does really care. Maybe I can start to trust people and I can achieve my goals and I can see my siblings. I can still love my family and not feel bad about that,” Woford explains. “So, I think Fostering Great Ideas really grasps all those concepts really well.”

The lasting mission While White, who teaches MBA-level entrepreneurship at Clemson University, has not experienced growing up in foster care, he has made improving the lives of these children his life mission.

“My whole life has been focused on individuals who do not feel that they are seen. As a result, it solely became the child in care,” he says.

“The greatest compliment I had was, ‘How long were you in foster care?’ So, when I was asked that, it made me know that even though I was never in foster care, that I listened well and that I was responsive to the needs of

“ The greatest compliment I had was, ‘How long were you in foster care?’

So, when I was asked that, it made me know that even though I was never in foster care, that I listened well and that I was responsive to the needs of individuals who, frankly, often feel invisible.”

– David White

individuals who, frankly, often feel invisible.”

With that entrepreneurial mindset, White framed FGI around the question, how would a child improve foster care if he had the authority to do so?

“They would find ways to lower their pain to allow them to feel dignity at every point, to build relationships that matter to them, and to engage the community,” he says. These points are what gave structure to FGI’s Journey Through Foster Care programs.

The programs begin as soon as the children enter care by giving them a friend, a teddy bear. The journey continues with programs focused on making positive memories during family visits, spending Thanksgiving holidays together, and providing luggage for the children.

FGI also offers programs to support the mothers and allow the children to share their stories, reconnect with siblings, receive mentoring, and receive academic and campus support for higher education.

“The composite nature of all this is to restore the dignity of the child, to rebuild their sense of wonder,” White summarizes. “And then to build relationships that matter to them, and then bring the community around the whole thing.”

To engage the community, FGI inspires others to foster, launches faith-based foster care ministries, improves policy at the state level through Speak Up, and offers a foster care simulation called Life in Limbo.

Through its grass-roots movement to improve law and judicial processes, two bills crafted by FGI have become law, and three more bills it has helped develop are becoming law.

MEET THE PRIMARY CANDIDATES GREENVILLE COUNTY COUNCIL

What you need to know before heading to the polls on Tuesday, June 12 WORDS BY CINDY LANDRUM Greenville County voters will go to the polls Tuesday for primaries.

They will decide the Republican or Democratic nominees in nine local and state races. In many cases, the winner of the primary will likely win that office since no other candidates filed to run for the seat.

They’ll also decide which of a long grocery list of candidates will appear on the ballot in November to replace U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy.

Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

For those who can’t make it to the polls on election day, in-person absentee voting is available in Conference Room H of Greenville County Square on Friday, June 8, and Monday, June 11, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. In-person voting is open Saturday, June 9, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Voters should use the Human Services Agencies entrance of County Square.

Voters must present valid identification at the polling location of the precinct where they are registered to vote. Acceptable ID includes a valid South Carolina driver’s license, concealed weapons permit, state identification card issued by the DMV, federal military ID card, U.S. passport, or South Carolina voter registration card that has a picture. The ID must be current and not expired.

There are exceptions for voters who are properly registered and cannot get one of the above photo IDs. To vote using the exception, a person must have his voter registration card.

In addition to the contested primaries, each political party has some advisory questions on the ballot.

Republicans will be asked whether they believe voters should have the option to choose to affiliate with a political party when they register to vote or change their voter registration in South Carolina, and whether the state’s tax code should be brought into conformity with the new Trump tax cuts in the federal tax code for maximum simplification and to lower the overall tax burden on South Carolina taxpayers and businesses.

Questions on the Democratic ballot are whether voters support passage of a state law allowing doctors to prescribe medical marijuana to patients, and if they support passage of a state law requiring the governor of South Carolina to accept all federal revenues offered to support Medicaid and Medicaid expansion efforts in the state.

After serving as the District 28 representative on Greenville County Council for the past 12 years, incumbent Fred Payne decided he would not run for re-election. Two Republicans want to take his place — and both have held elected office. Sylvia Lockaby served on the Simpsonville City Council, while Dan Tripp is a former state House of Representatives member.

COMMUNITY GIVES FEEDBACK ON WADE HAMPTON REDEVELOPMENT The range with impeccable taste.

MELODY WRIGHT | EDITORIAL INTERN

mwright@communityjournals.com

Bookended by the new NorthPointe mixed-use development and Bob Jones University, Wade Hampton Boulevard’s corridor into the city possesses great potential for growth. It’s a gateway to downtown Greenville and serves nine connecting neighborhoods.

The city of Greenville planned a four-day public input process to obtain community feedback on how to improve the corridor. The input process began on Tuesday, May 29, with an open studio at City Hall and a public meeting at Bob Jones University later that evening.

“Wade Hampton Boulevard is showing signs of growth and change,” Mayor Knox White said. “This is an opportunity for neighbors and business owners to help shape the future of the corridor.”

As part of U.S. Highway 29, Wade Hampton has average daily traffic of about 25,000 on that 2-mile span, according to a study conducted by the city.

Arnett Muldrow & Associates, a Greenville-based consulting firm, was hired to aid in the Wade Hampton plan.

In addition to city staff and consultant team members, the project team includes Tom McGilloway and Andy Kalback with Mahan Rykiel Associates, Randy Wilson with Community Design Solutions, and Eric Dillon with Infrastructure Consulting & Engineering.

“We are honored to work with the city leadership and “From 2011 to 2013, the city of Greenville installed decoLet your passions run wild andstreetlights re-imagineand yourplanted daily routine, community stakeholders on this plan that will provide crerative more than 250 trees along because therefor is the nothing you Hampton can’t do with a MieleinRange. ative solutions that are both practical and inspiring Wade Boulevard an effort to stimulate redevelfuture of Wade Hampton Boulevard,” With said Tripp Muldrow opment,” said city councilwoman Amy Ryberg-Doyle. intuitive functionality and flawless design, your culinary of Arnett Muldrow & Associates, who’sadventure lived mostawaits. of his life The city has invested $2.8 million in public improvements within blocks of the boulevard. associated with NorthPointe, including road improvements, Within the next five years, stakeholders want to see im- mast arm traffic signals, pedestrian amenities, sidewalks, provements on side streets such as Chick Springs Road, landscaping, and decorative lighting. the ability to safely cross Wade Hampton on foot or bike, “The boulevard should feature large trees and aesthetiand possibly added stoplights at busy intersections, such as cally pleasing entryways into the surrounding neighborWhite Oak Drive. hoods and city parks,” Ryberg-Doyle said. “It should highLimiting drive time while allowing for crosswalks and light neighborhood commercial nodes, where locally owned bike lanes, and maintaining affordable commercial rent and businesses can prosper.

The main challenge exists in motivating those traveling “I’d like to see ease of getting across Wade Hampton and along Wade Hampton to stay and see what the boulevard getting to Wade Hampton, possibly without a car.” has to offer rather than quickly passing through.

Views from your community

68 years of caring, healing hearts, and changing lives at GMHC

By Marci DeWolf and Dr. Al C. Edwards

In honor of nationwide efforts to combat mental illness, the Greenville Mental Health Center marks 68 years of support and caring for the Greenville community. Last year, a dedicated and talented staff of 160, plus 24 interns, touched the lives of 5,500 patients.

The center is a strong and vibrant part of the Greenville community. It’s been providing outpatient services to those battling addiction, depression, abuse, anxiety, schizophrenia, bipolar, and other disorders since it opened its doors in 1950. The center, one of the largest of its kind in South Carolina, is part of the State Department of Mental Health.

Our goal is to help people of all ages triumph over their adversities by equipping them to re-enter society as fully functioning and contributing members.

The GMHC is a national leader in community-based mental health services. It offers several innovative initiatives aimed at meeting the needs of an expanding population.

YOUTH Chris Haines organizes the therapeutic summer day program for youth who swim, hike, visit local parks, and get out in the community.

“The best thing we can do is to teach them how to manage their emotions so they can build the necessary social skills to be successful in life,” Haines said. A total of 580 middle and high school students typically benefit from the program.

Haines also leads the school mental health program.

Greenville County and the center have worked together to create one of the most expansive and progressive mental health partnerships in the nation. Resource counselors are in 49 county schools.

HOMELESS The center provides services to the homeless who are diagnosed with serious mental illness. Staff reaches out to those living outside or in a shelter.

ART THERAPY The Art of Recovery program enables patients to create, display, and sell their own work. It showcases their talents and illustrates the role that art can play in the recovery process. Their handiwork can be seen at the center and at the annual Spoleto Festival in Charleston.

“Displaying their own work promotes the clients’ sense of well-being and enhances self-esteem,” said John Lorance, board-certified art therapist.

Unlike those with a visible infirmity, such as a broken leg or blindness, mental illness may rob a person of the ability to reason, to discern fantasy over reality.

The mentally ill are often the poorest of our neighbors.

They often live in tent cities at a cost of poor and dangerous conditions. They may lack a personal doctor and end up in the ER or jail. Equally devastating are those who are disowned by their families.

Medications and therapies are on hand for treatment options, and we have seen impressive results. But more work needs to be done, such as improving access to health care, educating doctors, and motivating politicians. Drug abuse is increasing; childhood suicide is climbing; and the jails are full.

Astonishingly, 50 to 60 percent of those with a mental illness received no help last year.

The vast majority of those suffering are not violent or dangerous but are people wanting the same dignity and respect that we do.

Nearly 175 years ago, Dorothea Dix led a “revolution” to ensure humane treatment of the mentally ill. Some buildings and wards of South Carolina state hospitals still bear her name.

It is in the public interest to foster and maintain a healthy society for all people. Delayed treatment costs everyone. If one group is suffering from untreated conditions, then eventually that suffering will boomerang to the rest of us.

It is in the public interest to foster and maintain a healthy society for all people.

Delayed treatment costs everyone.

The GMHC has given hope and healing to thousands of members of the Greenville community. There are many success stories.

The center is located at 124 Mallard St. near Greenville’s West End. Reach us at 864-241-1040, or visit greenvillementalhealth.com.

Marci DeWolf is in her second term on the board of directors of the Greenville Mental Health Center. She previously served on the Florida State Board of Mental Health, Clinical Social Work, and Family Therapy.

Al C. Edwards, M.D., is the current director of the Greenville Mental Health Center, former associate director of William S. Hall Psychiatric Institute, former chief of forensic psychiatry of the South Carolina Department of Mental Health, former third-year curriculum coordinator at USC School of Medicine, and the former state director of mental health services for South Carolina Department of Corrections.

PHILANTHROPY

Carolina Nephrology raises more than $10K for National Kidney Foundation Carolina Nephrology raised more than $10,000 through sponsorships and fundraising for this year’s Upstate Kidney Walk. The walk was held in March at Furman University. In total, the walk generated approximately $60,000 to help fight kidney disease. Funds from the walk will be used to provide resources to administer free health screenings, host educational sessions, and further support kidney research. Education is a critical aspect of the prevention of kidney disease because there are rarely other signs. The walk encourages individuals in the Upstate with high blood pressure, diabetes, or a family history of these conditions to participate in regular screenings while generating support for kidney patients and other affected groups.

Subaru and Meals on Wheels America fund more than 870 meals for Meals on Wheels of Greenville Meals on Wheels of Greenville has received funds to provide more than 870 meals for the homebound in Greenville County. The gift comes from the partnership between Meals on Wheels America and Subaru of America as a result of the Subaru Share the Love event. From November 2017 to January 2018, Subaru donated $250 for every new Subaru sold or leased to a charity chosen by the customer, including Meals on Wheels. For 10 years, Subaru of America and its participating retailers have supported the mission of Meals on Wheels by funding community-based programs dedicated to fighting hunger and isolation. Since its inception, Subaru has helped to deliver nearly 2 million meals to America’s senior and homebound community.

Samsung and Harvest Hope Food Bank partner to provide meals for special-needs families The South Carolina Emergency Management Division, part of Samsung Electronics Home Appliances America (SEHAA), announced a $35,000 donation to Harvest Hope Food Bank to help provide disasterrelief meals to feed people with special medical needs in South Carolina. South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control runs an emergency sheltering program for people with “special medical needs.” These are citizens who may require electricity to run their medical equipment to help them breathe or eat. Their daily, lifesaving medication may require refrigeration, or they may need specific climate control measures. For those citizens, a separate emergency shelter is established. With Samsung’s $35,000 donation, Harvest Hope Food Bank based in Columbia will provide disaster meals to “Special Medical Needs Shelters” across South Carolina. This is the second time Samsung has invested in helping people in need through Harvest Hope Food Bank. Last September, Samsung partnered with Harvest Hope to feed veterans. Harvest Hope serves 20 counties in South Carolina. During a disaster, Harvest Hope is the lead food bank, coordinating efforts with other food banks across the state.

Yard Dog At the intersection of plant and pet

WORDS BY EMILY NEAL | PHOTOS BY CHELSEY ASHFORD Can gardening and pet ownership co-exist? Graham Kimak, principal of Graham Kimak Landscape Designs (and part owner of The Noble Dog Hotel) thinks it’s not only possible, but highly achievable.

Dogs will develop their own paths around the yard and Graham suggests designing around these already established routes. “Plan your garden with your pet’s needs and behavior in mind,” he says. “Start by researching your pet’s breed and understand how active your dog will be.”

Consider a strategy of materials; those that are dogfriendly such as grass and mulch and those that are not like stone or gravel, which can deter a dog away from a specific area. Pea gravel is an ideal material to line as a 3-foot border between yard and fence. These small, rocky pieces are uncomfortable when they get stuck in paws and can deter a dog from digging. While asphalt could be considered dog-friendly, remember that darker colors soak up more sun so if it’s too hot for bare feet, it’s too hot for puppy paws.

26 | GREENVILLE JOURNAL | 06.08.2018 GREENVILLEJOURNAL.COM

“Use lighter colored concrete materials or pavers if you know your dog will be spending lots of summer days on the space,” Kimak says.

Once you have your landscaping materials determined, move onto greenery and ground cover, which will likely receive plenty of traction from a pet so think sturdy, low-growing creepers like Liriopi, Asiatic Jasmine, and Mondo Grass.

When picking plants, Kimak says to select hearty plants as well as soft plants with sturdy branches. For example, while a Holly bush has sturdy branches, its prickly leaves are harmful if chewed by a pet. You may not want to imagine your dog munching on your favorite plants, but it’s worth considering when purchasing new additions for the garden.

For a flowering option, Forsythias and Butterfly Bush are ideal choices since a damaged branch can be trimmed and will easily grow back. Kimak also suggests making the investment to size up initial plantings. Bigger plants establish more quickly than ones in smaller pots and, in turn, will be able to handle some trampling. Avoid installing in-ground flowerbeds; instead opt for raised beds, garden boxes and large or grouped containers to add visual interest.

While most of us are not gardening specifically for our pets, any pet parent will attest that keeping them in mind is important for both you and your animal’s safety and happiness. Don’t forget to seasonally proof your yard for pet dangerous insects, such as fire ants. If you spray your yard for mosquitos, keep your pets inside for the same suggested amount of time as humans (about 30 minutes to avoid ingesting air-borne pesticides) and take a look around your back yard for openly stored yard chemicals, which should be stored up on a shelf in a shed or garage.

Lastly, plan for areas of shade for hot summer days and a good source of water for your pet — utilitarian or ornamental in nature — as well as plenty of waterproof toys to toss about. By keeping these simple strategies in mind during your next trip to the store, you can create a backyard oasis that will stay lush well into the dog days of summer.

This-Not-That Many a common garden staple can be toxic or intolerant for dogs to ingest. In the South, we love our lilies and azalea, just two of many plants that are better suited for the front yard rather than the back where our pups can spend a lot of downtime. But many options exist for gorgeous bed pairings including these attractive and pet-friendly substitutes.

Warehouse Theatre’s production of political comedy ‘Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson’ comes at a perfect, yet challenging, time SARA PEARCE | STAFF

spearce@communityjournals.com

“Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson” blends original rock music with the story of President Andrew Jackson’s life and the founding of the Democratic Party in a raunchy, uproarious comedy that will leave the audience thinking about the root of democracy.

The Warehouse Theatre’s production features some of the show’s original Broadway production team, including Mike Sablone, the Warehouse’s producing artistic director, who shepherded the musical from its first draft through its run on Broadway in 2010 as it garnered two Tony award nominations, and Andrew Scoville, the director of the Warehouse show and assistant director for the show’s Broadway run.

With two of the Broadway production’s significant influences involved, the pressure is on for the actors.

Benjamin Taylor Davis will be playing Andrew Jackson in his third production at the Warehouse Theatre. “It’s both an honor and absolutely terrifying. They have such a history with the show and they were there during its development,” Davis says. “So I think you get a lot of the insights that you don’t normally get. To have the point of reference of someone who is so knowledgeable on the material both historically — the story of Andrew Jackson — and the show itself is really helpful as an actor.”

The cast, crew, and production team have worked to ensure that the show is current, relevant, and a new experience for the audience.

“The show is going to be different no matter what happens. Even if we tried to recreate it, it wouldn’t happen. We’re doing it in a different time than it was originally done, so I think that feeds a lot into what we’re creating,” says ensemble member Emily Grove. Grove will be making her Warehouse debut in “Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson.”

One of the greatest challenges for members of this cast is creating a political and historical show that is both funny and entertaining but still tackles the issues head-on.

As the seventh president of the United States, most people are familiar with Jack-

son, but as Grove explains, there is more to him than meets the eye. “I think that we all have a $20 bill; we’ve all seen Andrew Jackson and think we know who this person is. It’s interesting to see him and his story come to life in a new way,” Grove says.

The show focuses on Jackson’s campaign trail to the White House, his relationship with his wife, Rachel (played by Crystal Stewart), populism, the Indian Removal Act, and the harsh realization that governing is harder than it looks.

Scoville, Davis, and Grove all agree that the timing of the show is both impeccable and challenging.

“The zeitgeist kind of feels similar now,” Grove says. “We have Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump that kind of feel like outsiders, and you can twist populism to kind of fit who you want. It feels very contemporary and current with politics right now.”

“I think it’s a lot of history repeating itself with this current administration.

Jackson was the first drain-the-swamp president. He was the first to get rid of his whole cabinet. He was the first president to rely on family and friends. He was the original ‘Make America Great’ candidate,” Davis says. “He wanted to get back to the ideals that started the revolution. He was the first people’s president, and he wanted to fight for the common man. He wanted to dismantle Washington and get Washington insiders out of office. A lot of these very populist ideologies were initiated by Jackson and are finding their way back into politics today.”

Through his performance, Davis hopes to tell the multidimensional story of Jackson. “I truly hope you’re rooting for this man, and then you see him fall apart,” Davis says. “It’s a three-dimensional story.

It’s not as simple as saying, ‘Jackson is a genocidal murderer’ or ‘Jackson was an American hero.’ There are so many complexities within his legacy.”

Scoville faces similar challenges. As the director rather than an assistant director, he feels more responsible for the reactions of the audience as well as ensuring the cast and crew feel the issues and jokes are presented in a fair way. Scoville also is presented with the challenge of a new audience — many from the South, where

Jackson was born — and working in a theater located within a region that once was part of Cherokee territory.

“The correlation between Andrew Jackson and Trump is definitely present in this space and unignorable,” Scoville says.

“I think there’s also something that is unignorable, which is the way that the administration then, particularly the white men involved, dealt with the native population and the way that white people have the tendency to deal with people of color today. I think that’s another complication that has arisen based on the time we’re doing it now.”

Scoville knows that politics can be divisive, but he hopes to see the show bring people’s ideas together, because it has before.

“I think that this show can unify,” he says. “I’ve seen it unify people who like different kinds of theater, and people who have different points of view, but this show attempts to dig into what’s complicated about what makes people feel alienated from one group or another, and when it’s rooted in some form of nationalism — well, that’s what the show is all about.”

TRADING PLACES In the ‘Phantom’ sequel ‘Love Never Dies,’ Christine and Raoul are the outsiders CINDY LANDRUM | STAFF

clandrum@communityjournals.com

The Phantom was an outsider, living in the bowels of the Paris Opera House. In the sequel to “The Phantom of the Opera,” Christine Daaé, Raoul, and their young son, Gustave, are the ones who don’t fit in.

“Love Never Dies” is set in Coney Island in 1907, a decade after the Phantom’s disappearance from the Opera House.

There, the Phantom lives amongst circus freaks and carnival barkers.

It’s a place where his music can soar.

But something’s missing — Christine, the opera singer with whom the Phantom remains obsessed.

“Coney Island is the perfect setting,” said Meghan Picerno, who plays Christine in the national touring show. The show will be in Greenville at the Peace Center for eight shows beginning Tuesday, June 12.

“In 1907, anyone could go there.

Anyone could blend in. The Phantom could be hidden in sight. He wouldn’t have to stay in the shadows.”

Christine is a world-famous opera diva struggling in an ailing marriage to Raoul, a drinker and a gambler.

They travel from Paris to Manhattan when Christine gets a chance to open a new opera house. In a final bid to win Christine’s love, the Phantom, posing as an unidentified concert impresario, books Christine to make an appearance at Coney Island.

“You can expect a roller-coaster effect in the show,” Picerno said.

“There are definitely twists and turns.”

While “Love Never Dies” is a sequel, audience members don’t need to be familiar with “Phantom,” which is the longest-running musical on Broadway in its 30th year, to enjoy it, Picerno said.

“If you’re a ‘Phantom’ fan, of course, you’ll be able to find out what happened to your favorite character. If not, you’ll see a beautiful piece that stands on its own,” she said. “Phantom” super fans will be able to hear bits and pieces of their favorite show in “Love Never Dies,” Picerno said.

Picerno said playing iconic roles is always a dream for a performer, and Christine is one of those roles, especially since she came to “Love Never Dies” from the opera world.

“I get to sing some of the most beautiful music every single night,” she said. “I love the music. Andrew Lloyd Webber has been quoted as saying the music is some of the best he’s ever written. The music is absolutely gorgeous.”

Forty years ago, a group of friends gathered at Walt Chandler’s Sandwich Shop to perform some sketches made famous by the British comedy group Beyond the Fringe.

“We asked if we could do some of this one Friday or Saturday night, and Walt said, ‘Sure!’” remembers Ted Bruce. “So we decided to do Beyond the Fringe for the first half of the show, then write a few original things for the second act. We called it Beyond the Fringe and Then Some. Then later, when we wanted to do some more, we just dropped the Beyond the Fringe part.”

A rotating cast of players continued performing original material at Chandler’s, then later at The Red Baron, until 1983 when they opened their own restaurant and performance space, Cafe And Then Some. They’ve continued making Greenville laugh at itself ever since.

Their latest show, “40 Years and Then Some,” celebrates this legacy by recreating some of their favorite original sketches and songs. The show stars the three remaining original members — Ted Bruce, Bill Smith, and Susan Smith — as well as longtime regulars Maureen Abdalla and Jim Wilkins.

“It’s told from the troupe’s point of

view, the first time we’ve ever done it that way,” Susan Smith says.

“It sort of tells our story,” Bill Smith says.

“In a much-condensed way,” adds Bruce.

“To some extent, it’s the myth of what happened,” says writer/director Ron Whisenant. “Like I say at the top of the show, ‘Between truth and myth, go with myth.’ I took that and just ran with it in terms of creating new lead-ins to the songs and sketches that I think are pretty much close to the truth of what was originally uttered on stage.”

Although Whisenant was not part of the original troupe, he’d long been a friend and quickly became a key contributor. “I came down from New York and started directing, if you can call it that, in 1986,” he says. “They would fly me in, and then I realized I was having more fun down here than I was in New York.”

“We realized it was much better if someone was in charge,” Bill Smith says.

Over time, the shows evolved from a pure variety format to become more focused, script-driven affairs featuring recurring characters, topical jokes, digs at local — and national — political figures, and numerous song parodies. And while troupe members help come up with ideas and songs and characters, Whisenant creates plots and actually writes the scripts.

“His body of work rivals Shakespeare,” Bruce says. “I mean he’s written four shows a year for 38 years.”

“Someone asked me one time, ‘How many shows have you written?’ and I have

no idea,” Whisenant says. “Susan and I were writing together for a couple of years or so, then one night she said, ‘I tell you what — you write, and I’ll sit behind you and giggle.’ And essentially, that’s where we’ve been working ever since.”

Along with providing a history of the troupe, “40 Years and Then Some” covers the revitalization of downtown Greenville.

“My very favorite thing is that it tells the truth that Max Heller was the father of the rebirth of Greenville,” Abdalla says. “It’s great to be able to give credit where credit is due, to know why his statue is on Main Street. He was a visionary.”

“It’s a good show,” Wilkins says.

“There’s a lot of music in it… a lot of old songs from different shows.”

Asked about the reason for the troupe’s longevity, Wilkins offers this answer.

“People like to laugh,” he says, “and that’s what we’re basically all about, trying to make people laugh and have a good time — and they do!”

time and make a better record, write better songs. I can only hope to satisfy myself and hope there’s a ripple effect like a stone in a pond.”

Having said that, Malone, who will play at The Spinning Jenny in Greer on Friday, adds that she’s “really proud of this record.”

“I set out to make a live-in-the-studio record in a new studio with a new band, and it turned out beautifully, at least to me.”

It’s also a record that, had Malone tried to make it for a larger label, might have never seen the light of day, simply because it can’t

Anyone who’s ever seen Georgia’s Michelle Malone play live (and she’s been a staple on the South’s regional music scene since the late 1980s) knows how much of a badass she is onstage, whether it’s solo or with a band. She’s a devilishly good guitar player, particularly on slide, and her gritty howl of a voice has real power, both on ballads and rockers. And while her 15-album catalog certainly reflects some of that skill, she’s never sounded as visceral and immediate as she does on her new album, “Slings & Arrows.”

Recorded in five days, the album’s 10 tracks take in swaggering blues-rock (“Just Getting Started”), ballads that channel the old-school soul of Stax Records or Al Green’s work with Willie Mitchell (“Sugar on My Tongue,” a cover of Otis Redding’s “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long”), a brutal acoustic stomper (“Beast’s Boogie”), a nod to late ’60s garage-rock (“Matador”), and more.

It’s filled to the brim with Malone’s dynamic guitar work and emotional vocals, and it was all produced by Malone for her own label, Michelle Malone. Photo by Carie Ofori SBS Records.

Malone stops short of calling “Slings & Arrows” (which debuted be pigeonholed into one genre or another. in the top 10 on Billboard’s Independent “One of the challenges of being on Blues Albums chart) her best record, but someone else’s label is that you have other she’s clearly very happy with it. people to answer to and other people to “I think every record I’ve put out is my satisfy,” she says. “They’re generally going best record,” she says with a laugh. “I re- to be more concerned with the financial ally strive to beat myself and compete aspects of it, and then the art will take with myself; I’m my own toughest critic. a backseat to that.

to put the art first and the money second.

There’s no middle man, so I can afford to put the art first.”

One of the most striking moments on “Slings & Arrows” is the Otis Redding remake, reconceived as a duet between Malone and singer-songwriter Shawn Mullins. Those who are familiar with Mullins only from his 1998 hit “Lullaby” might be surprised by his emotional performance on the song.

“Shawn and I came up together on the Georgia music scene,” she says. “We’ve been singing and recording together for 20-something years. And Shawn is literally one of the best soul singers I’ve ever heard. I know a lot of people don’t know him that way, but he’s incredible.”

One can’t help but wonder what might have been, though. Malone originally performed “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long” a few years back at a tribute to Georgia’s most beloved musicians organized by former Allman Brothers Band keyboardist Chuck Leavell, and her duet partner for that show was none other than Gregg Allman.

“When Chuck said he wanted me to sing a duet with Gregg, I wanted to hang the phone up because I didn’t think I was worthy or capable,” Malone says. “That was quite a pivotal moment for me. My original plan was to call Gregg and have him record that song with me, because the live version we did was so amazing, but of course Gregg passed shortly before we started recording it. It was a crushing blow, but I still wanted to do the song just as much, because in my mind it’s a tribute to him now.”

MUSIC NOTES

JAZZ PORTRAIT Unpredictability and improvisation are key to Jorge Garcia’s music Musician: Jorge Garcia Instrument: Guitar Influences: Santana, George Benson, Joe Diorio, Pat Martino, John Coltrane, and Charlie Parker

Jorge Garcia has only been playing in the Upstate for two years, but he’s already made quite an impact with his flexible, delicate style. Whether he’s playing acoustic or electric, Garcia has an innate feel for a composition and those playing alongside him. He’s perhaps at his best in a duo setting, particularly with a violinist, where his prob-

ing, intricate acoustic style can serve as both a foundation and to spur on his collaborator.

Garcia was born in Cuba but moved to the United States as a child, living all over the East Coast from Florida to New Jersey. He started playing guitar when he was 14 and was immediately hooked on the instrument.

“My middle school in Atlanta had a music program, and that’s where I started playing,” he says. “And then all I did was practice; after I moved to Florida, I got more serious thanks to a teacher that I had named Vincent Bredice [an instructor who’s published several playing guides through the Mel Bay Publications instructional series]. I met Vince when I finished high school and went to college, and that’s when I started playing eight hours a day and studying jazz.”

Garcia loved the playing of jazzfusion artists like George Benson and Pat Martino, but he was just as fond of

Jorge Garcia’s flexible playing style partly comes from his love of Latin music.

Carlos Santana, so it stands to reason that there must have been a time when he could have become a rock player. He says that ultimately, there was an unpredictability to the improvisation in jazz that drew him to it.

“I love what jazz gives me in the moment,” he says. “That’s what it’s about: the moment. When you’re in that moment, you don’t know what you’re going to hear or how you’re going to react or what you’re going to play. Sometimes it’s beautiful, and sometimes I scratch my head and say, ‘I wish I had a chance to do that again.’ But that’s the beauty of art. I play from the heart and I play what I feel at the moment.”

That being said, Garcia’s style works in many different settings, and he says part of that flexibility comes from his love of Latin music, and part of it comes from emulating those he looked up to in order to develop his own style.

“In order to play what you feel inside, you have to master your instrument and continually work on it,” he says.

“And you have to take ideas from other people to do that. It’s the same thing as a writer studying Shakespeare or Edgar Allen Poe and taking things from what they wrote and so forth. You work with

the ideas of how they approached something, and eventually, your own sound comes out, if you have the ability. I listened to a lot of different styles of music from rock to funk and jazz, and there are certain rhythms from my Latin background that I throw in.”

Interestingly enough, Garcia didn’t move to the Upstate for musical reasons; he did so to be close to his grandchildren. But he quickly met local players like bassist Shannon Hoover, guitarist Matt Dingledine, trombone player Brad Jepson (all members of the Greenville Jazz Ensemble), and drummer Kevin Korschgen, who booked jazz performances at The Wheel in the West Village.

“Shannon, Matt, Brad, and Kevin Korschgen all embraced what I have to offer,” he says. “It’s been a great experience to mix in with them. They’re very nice people and very good musicians.”

NEXT GIG Saturday, June 9; Blues Boulevard, 300 River St., Ste. 203 ABOUT THE SHOW “That’s going to be really special because I have a bass player and a percussionist coming in from South Florida,” Garcia says. “We’re going to play a lot of Latin jazz.”

PERSONAL STORIES Soccer Mommy's delicate pop explores heartache, uncertainty

in there to get the sound I wanted.”

In fact, the only problem with the recording of “Clean” was that the band didn’t have much time to do it. A band with buzz is a band that has to take advantage of it, and Soccer Mommy (who will perform at the Heritage Park Amphitheatre in Simpsonville with Paramore and Foster The People on June 14) had to record in the midst of a packed tour schedule.

“Any free time we had off tour was recording time,” Allison says. “I think next time I want to cut out a period of time where I wouldn’t be touring and work on the album, just so there was no anxiety about finishing it on time and making sure it sounded right when I finished.”

VINCENT HARRIS | ARTS & CULTURE WRITER

vharris@communityjournals.com

When we caught up with Sophie Allison, the singer, songwriter, and multiinstrumentalist behind the band Soccer Mommy, she had just returned from performing at a massive festival in Europe called The Great Escape. That’s probably not something that Allison ever dreamed about when she started recording shimmering indie guitar pop songs in her bedroom a few years back.

“Definitely not,” she says. “I never thought I’d be here.”

But Allison has certainly arrived on the national scene after starting small, making four or five-song EPs in her room and releasing them on her Bandcamp page (in fact, one of her earliest releases is actually called “Songs From My Bedroom”).

On the five releases Allison put out between 2015 and 2017, the 20-year-old Nashville, Tenn., songwriter, who’s been playing music since she was 5, combined her beguiling voice with spidery guitar melodies to create delicate-sounding pop songs that cut a lot deeper on a second listen.

The music may have been blissful, but the lyrics typically weren’t, with Allison often chronicling her own heartache, uncertainty, and fear. Take the first song on her first EP, for example, a tune called “Jacob.” One of the first lines the listener hears her sing is, “There’s a hurting in my chest when he’s not by my side.” On the Bandcamp page for her 2017 single “Last Girl/Be Seeing You,” Allison introduces the material as “2 songs that meant a lot to me this summer when I thought I was gonna lose someone I had feelings for and I was sad and insecure.” There’s very little, if any, fiction going on in Soccer Mommy’s music.

“It’s pretty much all stuff that’s happened to me,” she says. “There are little things that might not be exactly autobiographical, but in general, these songs aren’t coming from a different point of view or from someone who doesn’t exist.”

But gorgeous melodies and heartbreak have worked well since the dawn of pop music, and Soccer Mommy’s constant stream of releases brought her a fastgrowing fanbase and eventually a record-

ing contract with the Fat Possum record label. After warming up with a half-reworked, half-new songs release called “Collection” last year, Allison’s “Clean” came out last March, a full-band recording made in an actual studio that she calls her first “real” record.

“It’s definitely the first thing I’ve ever written as an album, rather than a collection of random songs that were part of an EP,” she says. “I’d never sat down and written an album of songs that were connected and flowed. Plus, it felt like a bigger step sonically. We did it in a studio; we took time producing it; and we made the basic tracks sound like I really wanted them to.”

She’s right about the more sophisticated sound. It’s hard to imagine any of her early releases featuring anything as luminescent as the acoustic-guitar-andkeyboards song “Blossom,” which sounds like it could’ve been recorded in a cathedral. “Clean” was produced by Gabe Wax in Wax’s home studio, with Allison largely handling the guitars and bass playing herself. The sound is more immediate and detailed than anything Allison has done before, and the players she brought in on drums (Nick Brown) and lead guitar (Julian Powell) provide more muscle than her songs have had in the past.

Allison says she welcomed the collaborators after years of playing everything herself.

“It’s still the sound that I want; it’s just someone else doing it or showing me how,” she says. “Or they’ll add something

in that I wouldn’t necessarily think of. It’s worked really well. I wouldn’t have worked with Gabe if our ideas hadn’t meshed so well. He knew what kind of things to put

NEIGHBORHOOD SPOT WORDS BY ARIEL TURNER PHOTO BY WILL CROOKS

Tenants at Westone include Liability Brewing Co., Moe’s Original Bar B Que, and Coffee Underground and World Piece.

Westone on track to be the Greenville area’s next food & bev hub Another food hub just outside of downtown proper with options for the whole family, and likely even the pickiest eater, is nearing completion.

And there’s even on-site parking.

Westone at 109 W. Stone Ave. will have been in the works for about two years by the time the brewery, two new restaurants, and a coffee shop open this summer in the redevelopment project by Michael Fletcher and Pete Brett.

But by the sound of the menu offerings at each, it will have been worth the wait.

LIABILITY BREWING CO.

Anchoring the corner of the L-shaped contiguous buildings is Liability Brewing Co., owned by Terry Horner, who brought on brewer C.J. Golobish to have some fun and be experimental with the beer they produce.

“I decided early on I was going to hire a brewer because even though I have a ton of home brewing experience, I knew there was no way I could make this successful,” Horner says. “With all the investment we’ve made in it, I wanted to have something awesome and great from the beginning.”

Golobish comes from a culinary background with a stint in the Marines thrown in, which meshed perfectly with Horner’s personality.

“Some of the many reasons I hired C.J. was not only for his beer abilities but for his culinary abilities as well,” Horner says.

“He was very unique in that he had that culinary experience, the front of house, all the things. We want him to put all of that into not only the beer we make but the experience that we have here for our guests and for our employees.”

Golobish will be working on creating beers that are reminiscent of specific foods, such as a cream ale that is tiramisuinspired and a light beer with citrus notes that will taste similar to a beermosa, along with more standard brews customers will expect at the outset.

“So probably the second round of batches will be a lot of beers that are nuanced towards a food dish,” he says.

With space for 200-plus customers between the indoor taproom and outdoor patio, Horner and Golobish are looking forward to becoming a neighborhood hang for the North Main area.

Original Bar B Q will be opening as soon as all of the kitchen equipment and smoker are installed, franchisee John Wood says. That should be by late June.

As opposed to the mustard, vinegar, or tomato-based sauces popular around the Upstate, Moe’s is known for its Alabama white sauce, but there’s also plenty of red sauce and vinegar to slather on their famous smoked pork butts.

Moe’s scratch-made sides include potato salad using Yukon golds, jalapeños, celery, red onions, and celery; a marinated slaw used to top all the sandwiches; skillet corn with sautéed peppers, sausage, and onions; and family-style baked casseroles topped with garlicky croutons. The restaurant’s Oreo mud pies and banana crème pie are made daily.

Chef and partner Sam Ragland says he will have creative freedom in the kitchen to add items to the menu.

“As a chef, I wouldn’t want to just do something that was the same thing every day. I’d get bored really quick,” Ragland says. “So you have so much flexibility to do pretty much what you want to do, as long as you’re not losing money.”

MOE’S ORIGINAL BAR B QUE

COFFEE UNDERGROUND AND WORLD PIECE

In the space to the left of Liability, one of the 60-plus franchise locations of Alabama-inspired counter-service Moe’s

Owner Dana Lowie is getting a twofor-one with the second location of Cof-

fee Underground to the left of Moe’s and an adjoining, larger space that will be Lowie’s new restaurant concept World Piece that will serve pizza, salads, wings, burgers, fries, and a variety of other family-friendly options. Projected opening is Aug. 1.

“We had been looking for at least four years to do a coffee shop on Stone knowing that somebody would,” Lowie says.

“We talked about just doing the coffee shop at first, but I know it takes a lot of work for coffee to pay the rent, so I’m gonna do a pizza place but decided to not pigeonhole it into just pizza, since there are so many pizza places now.”

Lowie says World Piece will serve handtossed and Chicago-style pizzas. It will also have a full bar with 16 beers on tap, including a coffee stout.

During the day, it will be counter service and will switch over to table service for dinner, she says.

The coffee shop will serve the full menu of the downtown location, and because of having a larger kitchen to work with, all of the baking for both locations will move to the Stone shop, which will also include house-made ice cream.

The coffee side will close around 6 p.m. each night, and the restaurant will use the additional seating as needed.

euphoria gears up for September All the eating, drinking, and dancing we’ll do in September during euphoria Food, Wine and Music festival presented by Lexus is, after all, for a good cause. Now through July 31, euphoria is accepting grant applications from local organizations focusing on musical or performing arts education, hunger, and/or area youth. While euphoria shines a spotlight on Greenville’s thriving culinary scene and art community, it also carries a significant charitable component and philanthropic impact. The festival’s annual grant program is organized and presented by Local Boys Do Good (LBDG), a nonprofit organization. Proceeds from euphoria are distributed by LBDG through direct grants to charitable organizations — mostly in Greenville and surrounding counties in the Upstate. Since its inception in 2006, LBDG has received more than 150 grant applications and requests, and has distributed more than $290,000 in cash and in-kind donations to deserving charitable organizations. Grant applications are available online at euphoriagreenville.com/about-euphoria/. Questions concerning the grant application should be submitted through the festival’s email address: info@euphoriagreenville.com. Grants will be announced and rewarded at the festival’s media breakfast held on Sept. 22.

Additionally, tickets for the annual Tapas & Tinis presented by TOWN summer euphoria event are now on sale. This year, the party (and it’s always a PARTY), will be held July 20, 7-10 p.m., at Zen. Serving as a tasty preview for the feasting and dancing to be had in September, get ready for seriously danceable jams by Steel Toe Stiletto, small plates from chef Tony Schmidt of Performance Food Service, endless glasses of wine from Beckon Wines, and bottomless summery cocktails featuring Larceny Bourbon and Tito’s Handmade Vodka. Tickets are $50 and are available at euphoriagreenville.com.

The Get Right Band

Gottrocks | 200 Eisenhower Drive | 9:30 p.m.

CONCERT

Asheville, N.C.’s Get Right Band has spent the past seven years or so developing a mix of smooth vocal harmonies, prog-rock chord changes, and funk grooves, as illustrated by the head-nodding tunes on their most recent album, “Who’s In Charge.�

The roots of the group go back to a schoolboy partnership between singer/guitarist Silas Durocher and bassist Jesse Gentry. “Silas and I grew up together,� Gentry says. “We went to the same school, and I was a freshman in high school when we started our first band together. So, we grew up not only listening to the same music but playing it. We have differences here and there, but only being a year apart and having hippie-ish parents, we were exposed to a lot of the same music growing up.�

It must’ve been a strong bond, because Gentry was living on an island in the Caribbean before Durocher talked him into joining him and drummer JC Mears in Asheville to start the band. “I came from this small island where I felt I was a big fish in a small pond,� Gentry says. “When I got to Asheville, I saw all of these amazing players and thought, ‘Oh man, I gotta step my game up a little bit.’� –Vincent Harris

Harry Connick Jr.: A New Orleans Tricentennial Celebration

Peace Center | 300 S. Main St. | 7 p.m. | $55-$115

CONCERT

JUN. 10

Harry Connick Jr. has been more well-known for the past couple of decades as a crooner of standards, an actor in everything from TV’s “Will & Grace” to the blockbuster movie “Independence Day,” and a talk show host. But when he first started out, Connick’s primary occupation was that of a jazz pianist of uncommon skill, revealing both his ability and his love for his native New Orleans on his first couple of albums, “Dixieland Plus” and “Pure Dixieland.”

Both those albums featured occasional vocals from Connick, but they were largely instrumental collections packed with Big Easy standards like “Bourbon Street Parade,” “St. James Infirmary,” “Basin Street Blues,” and “When The Saints Go Marching In.” This is the music Connick will be paying tribute to in his New Orleans Tricentennial Celebration show. But if you’re a fan of the crooner side of Connick, don’t be concerned, because he’ll be stepping out from behind his piano to do plenty of singing in front of a large-scale jazz orchestra. –Vincent Harris meet Sir Topham Hat, play in Imagination Station, and enjoy storytelling and live music. Plus have a full day at Tweetsie Railroad with amusement rides, deer park zoo, panning for gold, live entertainment, and more. Tickets include one ride with Thomas the Tank Engine, Thomas & Friends themed activities, and admission to the theme park. https://tweetsie.com/special-events/day-outwith-thomas/

EXPAND YOUR PLAYLIST

CONCERT

For those familiar with singer-songwriter guitarist Dave Hause’s roots in hardcore bands like Paint It Black or The Curse, or even his more straight-ahead punk-rock with The Loved Ones, his current touring setup might be a little surprising. He’s playing as part of a duo with his brother, Tim, delivering stripped-down versions of the songs from his latest solo album, “Bury Me In Philly,” and older favorites from both his solo catalog and that of The Loved Ones. “What I like about it is that it really tests the mettle of the songs to play them without the band,” Hause says. “To be able to shrink it back down and be able to sing the song with its primary colors, so to speak, is great. It pushes you to deliver the songs in a compelling way.”

There will probably be some new songs in Hause’s Radio Room set, as well, tunes that he and his brother are working on for Hause’s next album. “Road-testing the songs helps,” he says.

“Not necessarily the crowd response, but it’s more of, ‘Am I delivering this in a way that’s getting across? Is it making any sense, or did I leave it in my head for too long? Do I need to slow it down, or can I get this entire lyric out of my mouth?’ It’s more about the logistics.” –Vincent Harris MON-JUL
