BRANCHES More than a boutique
Branches is branching out!
Okay...please forgive the cheesy pun, but it is true. Branches has been offering extraordinary home decor and unique gifts for 30 years. It is the place to go for custom, high-end flora and fauna; and now more than ever it is also the place to express your inner artist.
Almost two years ago Branches relocated to their current location at 88 Arrow Road. The new location provides more space for owners, designers, and sisters Sarah Perry and Lauren McAvoy to expand their visions. The increased space allows Branches to offer more classes, workshops, and demonstrations; to provide a venue for outside artist and craftsmen to host events; and to offer Quarterly Arts and Craft Markets featuring vendors from the surrounding areas whose work is not found in other local markets.
Explore your creative side by participating in one of Branches scheduled events or contact an Event Planner at Branches to design a custom event for your friends, family, or colleagues. You can create an event tailored to your group’s age, interest, and skill level. The workshops are a fantastic way to try something new, fun, and interesting; plus, you get to take home a one-of-a-kind work of art. Opening the workspace to outside creators has expanded the art experience to many new classes including but not limited to pottery, assemblage art, and glass work. Finally, be sure to visit the Bloomin’ Bazaar. The bazaar is free to attend and a wonderful opportunity to shop and browse original works. Come, be inspired, and connect with regional artists.

Hilton Head Island’s Dance Company
Hilton Head Dance Theatre presents
TERPSICHORE
Terpsichore pronounced ( trp • si • kr • ee ) is the Greek Muse of dance and choral song. Her name translates to “delights in dancing”. This perfectly captures the spirit of Hilton Head Dance Theatre’s Spring Performance. The performance is a delightful mix of classical, contemporary, and jazz dance. Island Muse had the pleasure of sitting down with the choreographers and senior company members to learn more about this year’s production.
Meet the Choreographers
Artistic Director
Karena Brock Carlyle
Karena is a former Principal dancer with American Ballet Theatre. She has partnered with stars such as Rudolf Nureyev, Ivan Nagy, and Mikhail Baryshnikov. Karena has danced all over the world and has performed for two US presidents. This year Karena has staged the classical ballet Paquita.
What led you to choose Paquita for this year’s performance?
I chose Paquita because it is such a beautiful, classical, bright, and happy piece. I like to open with a classical ballet piece to show what our dancers are capable of. I always choose something challenging and different.
Tell me a little about the story of Paquita.
The ballet Paquita is set in Spain during Napoleon’s occupation. The story tells of a young Romani girl who is abducted as a baby unaware of her noble birth. She falls in love with a French officer and eventually learns of her true identity. We are performing Act 3, the wedding scene. It is pure dance. The wedding scene features the Grande Pas which is a showcase of classical ballet technique. It is so important to keep these classical ballets alive. They are such beautiful works of art. I especially love staging a classical ballet because otherwise you would have to travel to see them.
It’s true that we don’t often get to see a live ballet performance with partnering and pointe work.
Yes, and it is important that we keep this art form alive and accessible. I know there is quite a lot of ballet available on the internet which was not available as I was coming up, but there is a dimension lost when you watch dance on the screen. A certain electricity that doesn’t come through and you lose the communication between the performer and the audience. The two play off each other during a live performance.
What has been challenging about staging this piece?
The wedding scene is beautiful and happy. It contains some character dancing as well as classical steps. Particularly the Mazurka. It is very fast and can be a challenge, but I know our dancers will work to perform it beautifully. I like to open with something beautiful then transition to something more contemporary and finish with a ballet that tells a story. Terpsichore highlights a well-trained dancer’s versatility; moving smoothly between classical, contemporary and jazz styles.
Artistic Director
John Carlyle
John began his ballet training at City Center Dance Theatre in Atlanta. In New York John continued his studies on full scholarship at Harkness School of Ballet. While in NY, John studied with some of the finest ballet instructors in the world, including Melissa Hayden, Robert Denvers, David Howard, Edward Villella and Bill Carter. John danced professionally with City Center Dance Theatre, The Tampa Ballet and Savannah Ballet. This year John is staging his original ballet, Snow White.
Tell us what led you to create a ballet for the story of Snow White?
One year after Nutcracker Rehearsal Karena wanted to announce to the dancers what we would be dancing for the Spring. I replied, “We don’t know what we are doing for the spring.” She said, “Tell them we are doing Snow White.” So, I did, and everybody cheered. Later when we were alone, I said, “You know there isn’t really a Snow White Ballet.” She looked at me and said, “You are so creative, you’ll figure something out.”
And you did.
I knew people had tried to stage a Snow White ballet, so I looked at some of them, but they were dark and somber. The music was dark and somber. I know it’s a Grimm’s fairy tell but I wanted to do something different, so I began to look for music that inspired me to tell the story. What I found was the music from the Princess Bride by Mark Knopfler. It told the story I wanted to tell.
What is next in choreographing a ballet?
I chose steps that tell the story. Not just dance for the sake of dancing. The ballet is very story driven. Another challenge of the production is that aside from the main characters I needed something for the corps de ballet to do so, I gave the queen henchmen. Her sycophants support her. For the prince, I gave him guardian angels. When the prince must leave, his guardian, angels stay with Snow White. This gave the corps de ballet something beautiful to dance.
What would you tell audiences about your production of Snow White?
Snow White is a ballet for all ages. It is a family friendly story, but it is not a little kids’ story. People of all ages will enjoy Snow White and Terpsichore.
Tell me about Hoedown and your new jazz piece. Hoedown is a western inspired ballet. Taking some music from Rodeo and Western Symphony along with some other composers and putting it together to create Hoedown. It’s a fun ballet. It’s upbeat with lots of bright colors. The dancers are having a really fun time with this dance. My next piece is currently untitled. It is based on soul music, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye. I’ve wanted to do this for a while and this year I really felt the inspiration to make it happen. This piece is about capturing the style and little nuances from the sixties and seventies. It requires quite of bit of musicality, synchronization, and really being on the right counts.
I’ve had an opportunity to see small snippets of this dance and I am blown away by the choreography and the dancers. It looks very challenging. Karena and I were just talking about this. Yes, the dancers are trained classically first, but the training allows them to jump into so many different styles. This soul piece is more grounded with lots of hips and twists. Dancers have to be really versatile, and Terpsichore shows what a well-trained dancer can do. The variety of music and dance styles make for a very exciting show.
Ballet Master Jamal Edwards
Jamal began his ballet training at Hilton Head Dance with Karena Brock Carlyle and John Carlyle. Jamal continued his dance training at the University of Alabama and dances professionally as a guest artist with many regional companies. Jamal is an ABT certified instructor and talented choreographer. This year Jamal is stagging his contemporary ballet Hoedown, and a new original untitled piece based on soul music in three parts.
What has been the most challenging part of preparing for this year’s performance?
I always try to challenge myself to be creative. I always think, what have I not done, what can I do that’s new. In addition to the choreography, casting is always tough for me. The dancers train six days a week and I don’t want to let anyone down. Everyone works so hard. When it comes time to give out a part or maybe not give out a part, it pulls at my heart strings; but it’s a part of the business. Not just with dance but with anything you go into, as far as college or the work force, there is some acceptance and some rejection. It really is how you use that to harness in and push yourself toward your goals.
What would you like to say to potential audience members?
For our area you will not find another show like this. Especially if you are a fan of classical ballet. The girls are dancing in pointe shoes, then taking those shoes off and getting down with a jazz number, then switching gears for a contemporary ballet, next we have a pas de deux to a David Bowie tune, then back to pointe work with a story ballet. It’s a great journey for the audience to go on. Don’t miss it!
Meet the Dancers Maya Shimada
Senior dancer. Maya has been dancing with Hilton Head dance for 11 years. She will be studying dance at Butler University next year. Maya will be dancing the lead role in Paquita, dancing in green for Hoedown, a sycophant and guardian angel in Snow White and performing in Jamal’s jazz piece.
What are you looking forward to performing most in Terpsichore?
Probably Paquita. It will be a good challenge and I’m looking forward to performing.
What is the most challenging part of Paquita?
The pirouettes. There are 32 fouetté pirouettes. I find this the most challenging part of Paquita for me.
What is special for you about this performance?
It is special in that we get to perform many different styles and I really like that.
Is there anything in this show that has pushed you outside your comfort zone?
I would say definitely every year it’s Jamal’s jazz piece. He changes it up with the music each year. He pushes me to use my body differently and go outside the box.
Katie Donahue
Senior dancer. Katie has been dancing at Hilton Head Dance for 11 years. Katie will be majoring in Architecture and minoring in Art at Clemson University next year. Katie is dancing the role of the Evil Queen in Snow White, dancing in purple for Hoedown, a soloist in Paquita and dancing in Jamal’s jazz piece.
What is your favorite dance in Terpsichore this year?
The Evil Queen in Snow White. I love acting. I have done theater since I was in elementary school. I love being able to act in my dancing. That just makes it so much fun for me.
What is the most challenging aspect of Terpsichore for you this year?
Honestly, I think Jamal’s Hoedown because it has a lot of the style and sharpness, he puts in many of his pieces, but it also requires the technique of ballet. It is challenging to perform.
Jamie Hanley
Senior dancer. Jamie has been at Hilton Head Dance for 5 years and danced in Atlanta before joining Hilton Head Dance School. Jamie will be moving on to university studying History next year but will stay engaged with dance as she focuses on her studies. Jamie is a soloist in Paquita, dancing in purple for Hoedown, a sycophant in Snow White, and performing in Jamal’s jazz piece.
What is your favorite dance for Terpsichore?
I would say either Hoedown or Jamal’s jazz piece. His jazz piece is really a unique style and it’s super fun.
What is the most challenging thing for you in Terpsichore?
Maybe sycophants just because there is a bit of acting. It’s a mix of acting along with classical, contemporary, and character dancing. It’s a fun challenge to incorporate so much acting and dancing.
Terpsichore

Junior Jazz Foundation presents
JAZZ CLINIC &CAMP
The Junior Jazz Foundation is a local treasure. It was founded in 2004 by Bob and Lois Masteller to preserve jazz through education and performance. The foundation sponsors great jazz performances throughout the Lowcountry; they host an annual jazz festival; provide instruments to young musicians in need; educate through the Jazz Clinic and Jazz Camp; and support talented artist with scholarships and performance opportunities. The Junior Jazz foundation is run by a dedicated Board of Directors and volunteers. All their energy is focused on improving the education and live performance of our great rising stars of Jazz.
In accordance with this mission, the Junior Jazz Foundation hosts the Hilton Head Jazz Camp (ages 14-20), the Hilton Head Jazz Clinic (ages 10-14) and the Jazz Guitar Institute (ages 14-18). Students come from all over the country to participate in this amazing summer musical experience. The camp provides an immersive study in improvisation, theory, combos, master classes, big band and elective courses. The faculty are highly professional and focused on taking the student’s musical ability to the next level. It is truly incredible what each student can accomplish with the faculty in a week at the Hilton Head Jazz Camp.
Hear what some jazz camp standouts have to say about their experience!
Very rarely do you encounter things that you know will be a part of you for the rest of your life. The Junior Jazz Foundation has been steadfast in this way for me, as it has for countless others. As a young boy, I had no idea what to expect when I first attended the foundation’s jazz camp. I very quickly realized that the only expectations that were truly required of me were to have fun and to keep my ears open. (Since then, I have found that every young student takes away something different, yet equally positive from being in the camp). Although it was still in its early years, the values of family and diversity were firmly planted as I made close connections with many of the other kids who were experiencing the phenomenon of music alongside me. I found myself returning excitedly every year, regardless of the thought of becoming a professional musician, to partake again in this community of students, humble faculty members, and music lovers grown by the Hilton Head Jazz Camp and the Junior Jazz Foundation.
Today, one of my greatest honors is that I get to return as a faculty member to this camp that so powerfully shaped me. As the foundation grew, I began to notice its impact in recognizing young musical talents and then supporting them holistically. Around the year, they would sponsor shows that allowed my brother, Hani’el, and I to gain invaluable performance experience–from playing for intimate audiences at the Jazz Corner and the island’s many country clubs, to opening for some of our musical heroes in sold-out shows at the Jazz for All Ages Festival. These performances ended up being some of the most important moments I could have had as a young musician. Even as I have moved away from the Lowcountry, the foundation continues to support my career by helping fund my graduate studies with their college scholarship. Whenever a chance arises for me to return, even briefly, I eagerly take it so that I can see the foundation’s incredible community again and give my immense gratitude for its impact in my life.

The Junior Jazz Foundation has been one of the most impactful organizations I have had the privilege of collaborating with. Through the Hilton Head Jazz Camp, The Jazz Corner, and the Junior Jazz Foundation, my young artist career has been shaped and molded. As a middle and high school student pursuing the arts, the JJF provided opportunities for me to perform, learn and create freely! These opportunities gave me connections and knowledge that I otherwise would not have been exposed to. The JJF team not only provides on a professional and creative level, but a personal one as well. I am proud to call this team my second family. When choosing my university home, board members of the JJF gave such strong encouragement and reassurance during an overwhelming and stressful time. Being a recipient of their scholarship program has not only strengthened my relationship with the foundation but has made it possible for me to study music at the collegiate level. Without their financial support, attending a university would have been a much larger financial burden. I am forever grateful to have such an overwhelming support system that I can lean on as I continue to study, create, and find my way as a young artist in the music industry.
The Junior Jazz Foundation has impacted my life in so many ways that I will forever be grateful for. I attended the Hilton Head Jazz Camp, a part of the JJF, for the first time in 2018. I was very new to playing jazz and didn’t really know much, and the whole week blew my mind. Being so immersed in and learning about the beautiful community that the JJF has cultivated was incredibly inspiring to me. So inspiring to me in fact that it made me want to pursue a career doing what I saw all these people doing. From the masterclasses to the performances, and the exceptional skill levels of the other camp attendees the year I went, I knew it was something that I wanted to be a part of. The camp got me connected with so many great and supportive musicians who went far out of their way to help me in various parts of my career so far. I was also a recipient of the JJF scholarship for two years which helped me pay for almost all of my college tuition for those two years. I now make my living playing and teaching music, and I am certain that I wouldn’t be doing what I am doing today without the support of the Junior Jazz Foundation.

The Junior Jazz Foundation and Hilton Head Jazz Camp have had a tremendous impact on my life. I first attended the clinic when I was 10 years old. It was then that I fell in love with the tradition of jazz music. I received my first upright bass from the Junior Jazz Foundation. The clinic and then the camp introduced me to the world of improvised music. I felt like I had found my people. The faculty are outstanding players and teachers. I learned so much. Through the camp I was able to have the honor of playing in the Rising Stars Band for the Jazz for All Ages Festival. The Junior Jazz foundation has encouraged and supported my continuing education, and it is through them that I have had the opportunity to learn from the best musicians around. They have given me so much opportunity to perform and to grow. I would not be where I am today without them.
The Junior Jazz Foundation has provided many incredible opportunities and has constantly stood by my side as a young drummer in my early musical years. They have given me the chance to learn from some of the greatest musical minds of our time as well as providing financial support for jazz camps. The foundation also allows young musicians to interact and collaborate at the Hilton Head Jazz Camp. It is one of my favorite jazz camps and the most consistent summer camps I attend. I will always be grateful for what the Junior Jazz Foundation has done to prepare me for collage and my future as a professional drummer.
If you have a young musician in your life, we highly encourage you to consider participation in the summer programs. If you have an instrument lying around that is not being played, please consider a donation to the Junior Jazz Foundation. They will make any repairs necessary and get it into the hands of a student.

DELISHEEYO
Delisheeyo is an Island go to for delicious healthy food. Island Muse sat down with owner Blake Wearren to find out a little about what makes Delisheeyo so special
When did you become interested in food and cooking? I was working at Whole Foods while I was studying geology at the University of Kentucky. I started out at the register, but I was drawn to the bakery. I soon moved over to that department. Whole Foods does a really good job with their training. They would bring in chefs and bakers from great restaurants to train us. It was a great place to let yourself be creative. I was decorating cakes and had a lot of creative freedom. I began thinking maybe I would go in the direction of food preparation rather than geology.
What are some of your influences and inspirations?
My family and my time at Whole Foods were tremendous inspirations. Both of my grandmothers are wonderful cooks, and I think my love of good food came from them. The customers at Whole Foods were also an important influence. They opened my eyes to new foods and traditions. Meeting people and hearing about their different food experiences made me realize that I had led a sheltered food life. I was intrigued by other people’s food experiences. There was so much to learn.
What is your philosophy concerning food and Delisheeyo?
Be good to people. I think I’ve found a way to do that through food. Many times, customers will come in a say how good eating our food makes the them feel; or that a family member has been sick, and they brought them some of our soup and it really helped them to feel better. I feel like a lot of times people may get into a career and feel unfulfilled. I didn’t want to find myself in that position. I like to really help people, and I feel like providing good and healthy food is my way of doing that.
How did you come to vegetarian food?
Slowly. I grew up eating meat and potatoes. When I was in college, I think it started with kombucha. I was feeling run down, staying up late and studying hard and I tried this weird drink, and I felt better. Then after college I began working with Chef Catherine Mattes, the founder of Delisheeyo. She showed me how to take something like kale and prepare it with a flavorful vinaigrette. It tasted amazing. It was a slow transition for me but eating this food really makes me feel good. We have something on the menu for everyone. If you like your meat and potatoes, I recommend trying our Chill Island or So Cal wraps. They are delicious and will leave you feeling satisfied.
What advice would you give someone that has a creative vision but may not know where to start? It must be a labor of love. Follow your passion. Starting a new venture takes a lot of time and energy. Passion will help you to persevere. You don’t have to have it all figured out when you start. Have a direction and get your foot into it; then be patient and let it grow organically. You will never feel that you have arrived. It’s okay if you feel a little on edge. If you feel that you’ve figured it all out, that may signal your decline. Constantly question how you are doing things. Constantly grow.
Delisheeyo makes food that not only looks and tastes good, but makes you feel great. Come try one of their many delicious menu options for breakfast, lunch or an early dinner. Grab a box of kale chips for a snack. You won’t be disappointed.

FOLDEROL
Great friends, Great fun, Great Music
In 2019 Davey Masteller had an idea for a band. He brought his idea to his good friends, singer/performer Candice Rae and pianist/ trumpet player James Berry. The three musicians hit it off and had great fun exploring new musical ideas. Then Covid struck. Candice had her first child, James had two more children and the idea for the band faded.
Fast forward to 2023 and Davey’s friend needed to book a band for a speakeasy bar in Palmetto Bluff. He asked Davey if the band he had mentioned to him in the past was available. Well, that band only existed as a thought. Davey reached out to James and Candice and Folderol was born.
Folderol means mere nonsense, foolish talk, or ideas; trivial or nonsensical fuss. The name captures the fun and playful nature of the band. Folderol combines different musical genres and eras into a reimagined theatrical experience. Folderol has a vintage vibe with fresh takes on modern and classic music. The multi-talented band members push each other to explore their fullest potential. This three-piece band often expands their sound by adding Leon Rivchun on saxophone and Drew Lewis on drums to become a rockin’ five-piece band.
Folderol will be performing March 29th, 12–3pm, at Celebration Park for the 2025 Wine Fest. Come and join the band for a great afternoon of fun and entertainment for all ages.
