Park, the Muhammad Ali Center and the Marriott Louisville Downtown • INFO: arotr.com LOUISVILLE — Your Abbey Road on the River will be the Zombies, according to an event news release. Originally formed in St. Albans back in 1961 with Rod Argent on piano and Colin Blunstone on vocals, The Zombies soon found worldwide fame with a run of brilliant singles such as “Tell Her No” and “She’s Not There.” Nearly 50 years after the release of their landmark album Odessey and Oracle, which later became admired as one of the finestcrafted LPs in musical history and contained the number 1 hit “Time Of The Season,” The Zombies are back with the announcement of a U.S. Tour and a new album titled “Still Got That Hunger.” Original band members, singer Colin Blunstone and keyboardist Rod Argent, will be joined by
guitarist Tom Tooney, drummer Steve Rodford and bassist Jim Rodford when they perform on Saturday, May 28th at Abbey Road on the River. Both hailing from England, The Zombies and The Beatles led the British Invasion in the 1960s and their music had numerous parallels. In fact, The Zombies’ Odessey and Oracle, was recorded at the Abbey Road studios in June of 1967, right after The Beatles finished recording Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. John Lennon’s Mellotron, which was used in “Strawberry Fields,” was also
used during The Zombies’ recording session. Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Felix Cavaliere’s Rascals will also perform on Sunday, May 29, bringing a high energy set with mega hits like “Good Lovin,” “I’ve Been Lonely Too Long,” “Groovin,” “A Beautiful Morning,” “A Girl Like You,” and “People Got to Be Free.” The 2016 festival will include more than 50 famed Beatles tribute bands performing the music of The Beatles on eight stages throughout the weekend.

OUTHERN INDIANA — Local artist Kathie Daulton still remembers when art first entered her life. Her memory begins with a family friend and commercial artist visiting Daulton’s home for Sunday dinner. “And us kids would stretch out on the floor and copy out of comic books and magazines,” Daulton said, chuckling at the image still fresh in her mind. Last week, Daulton took her art from the floor of her childhood home to the walls of Gadabout Gallery & Artisan Shoppe, 249 Spring St., Jeffersonville. Her painting, titled “Big 4 Bikes,” is one of about 10 paintings that were born from the brushes of members of the Floyd County Crit Club. Daulton was introduced to the club by a friend “quite a few years back,” but was working full time as a secretary at the VA Medical Center in Louisville and couldn’t find time for the club. Then about a couple of years ago, Daulton retired and she was able to commit to art. The Floyd County Crit Club was founded in 1972 by Nancy Holderman, who at the time volunteered at the Floyd County Museum, now the Carnegie Center for Art & History. A curator there suggested Southern Indiana needed a resource for local artists and that Holderman should be the one to found it. So she did. The club meets every third Monday of the month in Clarksville, though it retains its original name, a nod to its history and longevity. Members, around 30 of them, can share their works in progress or completed works to receive feedback from other club members. Sellersburg artist Gladys Moore said the club helps artists see their work in a new light. “When you’re working on a piece and then you set it up and everybody is looking at it, you see things you didn’t see before,” Moore, 84, said. Moore has been a member of the club since 1986. She studied art in college and eventually taught elementary art at a private school. At one time, she owned an art shop. Her appreciation of art goes back to when she was a child and her older brother would sketch her likeness. She says she wasn’t aware that everybody didn’t love art like she did until she got older.

Kick it up with ‘The Cowboy Way’ NEW ALBANY — Join Riders In The Sky in a thrilling ride to yesteryear as they salute iconic western movie, music and TV star Roy Rogers, undisputed “King of the Cowboys.” King of the Cowboys: Riders In The Sky Salute Roy Rogers features family-friendly favorites from Roy’s long career that include “Don’t Fence Me In,” “Pecos Bill,” “Happy Trails” and more wrapped up in the Riders’ two-time Grammy®-winning high yodeling style. For more than 30 years Riders In The Sky have been keepers of the flame passed on by the Sons of the Pioneers, Gene Autry and Roy Rogers, reviving and revitalizing the genre. And while remaining true to the integrity of Western music, they have themselves become modernday icons by branding the genre with their own legendary wacky humor and way-out Western
wit, and all along encouraging buckaroos and buckarettes to live life “The Cowboy Way. ” As a classic cowboy quartet, the trail has led them to heights they could have never predicted. Riders have chalked up over 6,100 concert appearances in all 50 states and 10 countries, appearing in venues everywhere from the Nashville National Guard Armory to Carnegie Hall, and from county fairs to the Hollywood Bowl. Their animated likenesses have shared the screen with Daffy Duck on the Cartoon Network, and the Disney Channel’s Stanley. If you consider their compositional credits, one might call them “Writers In The Sky!” In addition to penning award winning songs for their own albums, they wrote the score for Pixar Animation’s 2002 Academy Award-winning short “For the Birds.”

The animated character that history will most certainly link to Riders In The Sky is the lovable cowboy Woody, as Riders performed “Woody’s Round Up” in “Toy Story 2,” with
the album of the same name garnering Riders their first Grammy Award in 2001 for “Best Musical Album for Children.” Two years later, Riders roped their second Grammy in the same category, for “Monsters Inc. — Scream Factory Favorites,” the companion CD to Pixar’s award winning movie.
GALLERY: Paintings include Falls of the Ohio, Jeffersonville Overlook CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4 Crit club members like Moore also get the opportunity to receive critiques from professional artists and watch demonstrations. Once a year, sometimes more often, the club organizes an exhibit to showcase members’ works. The club’s current exhibit, which runs at Gadabout until Nov. 8, is a celebration of Jeffersonville and aptly named “All Things Jeffersonville.” Daulton’s painting, an oil on canvas, depicts bicyclists furiously pedaling a path along the water toward the Louisville skyline. It’s not a true-to-life depiction, but more like what Daulton calls a “figurative landscape.” Other paintings include scenes of the Falls of the Ohio State Park, the Jeffersonville Overlook and the recently opened Too Tired Bike and Bean cafe on Spring Street. Other works, like Holderman’s colorful

Busby, an art teacher at Silver Creek High School, judged the Club’s competition for the gallery. | STAFF PHOTO BY TYLER STEWART abstract painting, didn’t show off Jeffersonville landscapes, but were still celebrated as examples of local art.
“It is such a pleasure to host the Floyd County Crit Club Show in Gadabout,” Dawn Spyker, who
co-owns Gadabout with Jennie DiBeneditto, said in an email. “As a longtime art educator, I admire and enjoy working with artists that are open to dialogue and critique with other artists. This group is full of lifelong learners and there is abundant talent.” Holderman, who is still an active member of the club, will have her own exhibit of her artwork at Gadabout in March. She said for an artist, painting is the same as breathing. If she isn’t painting, she doesn’t feel alive. Just as important is sharing her lifeline with the community. “I think a lot of people aren’t aware of the great artists in the community, and you know, when you’re an artist you need to have exposure,” Holderman said. “You need to feel appreciated.” As artists and locals mingled and admired the paintings on opening
night at Gadabout, ribbons were quietly placed next to some of the top artworks, as decided by a clubappointed judge. Daulton’s “Big 4 Bikes” was awarded the first-place ribbon. “It makes me proud, and I like my work anyway, but it’s nice to see other people like it,” Daulton said. “It’s recognition. I love it. I’ll take all I can get.” The first-place ribbon wasn’t the first time Daulton felt appreciated. Like other members of the crit club, Daulton has started to regularly sell her work at other galleries. Although selling is the goal, Daulton said it’s hard to put a price sticker on a piece of her art. “It’s so hard,” she said. “And every now and then, I just can’t sell. Although I love them all, they’re all my favorite when I’m doing them, but after a while it’s like ‘OK, I can let this one go.’”
