Laws, What Would We Do Without Them?

Writer / Beth Wilder, Director Jeffersontown Museum

According to the dictionary, a town is defined as “a densely populated urban area, typically smaller than a city and larger than a village, having some local powers of government and a fixed boundary.”

The word also refers to “the inhabitants of a town.” Now, whenever people are grouped together in such a way that they have to interact on a regular basis, they tend to form certain rules about how they are willing to deal with one another. The primary way a town handles these social interactions is to create a governing body of citizens (in early Jeffersontown, they were referred to as the Board of Trustees), who get together and enact laws (also known as “ordinances”).

Of course, laws often reflect problems that

were encountered at the times they were enacted, and it is interesting to note some of the issues that faced the early inhabitants of Jeffersontown.

In June 1816, a law was passed “prohibiting any housekeeper in the Town to keep more than one Dog.” Anyone who violated this law had to pay $2 a year for every dog more than the one allotted to each resident. It was also noted at the time that dogs were not allowed to run loose within the town limits, and that “any person shall be at Liberty to kill the same.” So, dogs must have been a problem in early Jeffersontown.

On October 19th, 1816, it was ordered “that all Timber fyrewood old waggons [sic] (except Timber and other materials for building) shall from henceforth be

considered as public Nuisance,” and the Overseer of the Streets was given authority to enforce a $2 fine on those who would not remove such objects. So, the City Fathers did not like to see old “junk” sitting out in view of the public. That same day, a $2 fine was instituted for “any person or persons firing a Gun or Pistol” or “shooting at Marks” in the town. Apparently, the City Fathers did not want anyone to be needlessly shot, either.

A hundred years later, other concerns took precedence. In June 1915, the Jeffersontown Board of Trustees drafted a book of ordinances regarding various issues, such as fines (and jail time) for public drunkenness, garbage and weed removal along the city sidewalks, and cleanliness of the right of way on city thoroughfares, which included

not throwing out “slop, refuse matter of any kind, filthy or hot water,” or any other impure liquids – or allowing one’s employees to do so (It is rather amusing this clarification had to be made). It was also unlawful for “any horse, cow, sheep, hog, or goat to be at large in any of the streets, lanes, highways, commons, or alleys of the town of Jeffersontown.” These ordinances present a picture of a bustling town square at the turn of the 20th century, yet the rural nature of Jeffersontown still shone through, considering that people had to be told not to allow their livestock to roam free.

Of special note is the fact that no one was allowed to “ride or drive a horse or animal in a street or alley in the town of Jeffersontown at a rate faster than 12 miles an hour,” while “no automobile or motor vehicle shall be driven or operated upon any street, alley or way of the town of Jeffersontown at a rate of speed faster than eight miles per hour.” Anyone who did drive one of those new-fangled horseless

wagons more than eight miles an hour got slapped with a fine of up to $25 for each offense – riding a horse too fast only cost the perpetrator up to $10 at the most. The City Fathers never were too keen on fast cars driving through the town, especially since they tended to spook the horses and cause accidents.

In 1915, Jeffersontown established many other ordinances that covered subjects ranging from the upkeep or destruction of unsafe buildings, to the prohibition of vagrancy and begging for alms. Disorderly conduct could get one jailed, fined, or both – in fact, the offending party could have been required to provide up to $1,000 bail for up to a year to make sure he kept the peace and was on good behavior. Of course, there were also laws against gambling, and how late businesses that provided games could stay open – 10:00 p.m. was the norm throughout the week, although such businesses could remain open until midnight on Saturday.

Other ordinances involved making sure building codes were followed, and that anything unsanitary that proved a threat to the health of the community would be dealt with promptly or result in a fine of $2 to $10.

License fees for various businesses were also covered under the City Ordinances – this even included “fortune tellers,” who had to pay a yearly fee of $10 (most businesses only paid a fee between $1.00 - $2.50 – this is likely an indication that fortune tellers were not very welcome in Jeffersontown).

Peddlers who came to Jeffersontown to sell their wares not only had to pay for a license,

they were required to wear a conspicuous metal badge provided by the town, so they could be easily recognized.

Over the last hundred years, Jeffersontown has changed quite a bit, and countless new ordinances have been enacted to adapt to the ever-burgeoning population and growth of our city. So, in answer to the question – “Laws – what would we do without them?”

– well, we might feel like we have a lot more freedom, but we certainly would not have the strong, beautiful, and orderly town we have today.

BEHIND THE CURTAIN STAGEONE FAMILY THEATRE DIRECTOR ANDREW HARRIS TALKS ORGANIZATIONAL IMPACT ON LOCAL YOUTH Writer / Carrie Vittitoe Photographer / Bruce Hardin (Blue Harvest Photography)

“It was horrible. I sounded more like I was strangling a cat than singing notes,” he says.

Andrew Harris has been a fixture at StageOne Family Theatre for nearly two decades, but his start in theater as a teenager isn’t what you might imagine.

He wasn’t the kid who, from an early age, dreamed of breaking box office records as a theatrical success.

As he left that audition, without being cast in a part, he was angry, not because he didn’t make it but because he didn’t know what he was doing.

“I was a kid who found theater by accident,” he says.

Although his mom encouraged him to join the local community theater’s children program in Oak Ridge, Tennessee where he grew up, he showed no interest.

“When I was about 14-years-old, some friends of mine got in a play, and they got to miss school to perform,” he says. “I thought to myself, ‘I like missing school. I should get involved in this.’”

He went to his first audition completely unprepared, and when he was asked to sing [since it was a musical], he picked “Amazing Grace,” which is a challenging song for even the best vocalists.

“I couldn’t handle failure. I couldn’t handle the not-knowing,” Harris says.

Determined, he returned to the next audition a little more prepared. He knew that it was not a musical, and he wouldn’t be expected to sing. However, he did not have a monologue prepared. Although a kid handed him an excerpt from T. S. Eliot’s “Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats” to help, Harris stumbled through it and then stormed out.

Fortunately, he says a man who had seen him at both auditions offered him the opportunity to work on the lights for the show. Harris’s response to him was, “Do I get to miss school?” When the gentleman answered yes, Harris signed up.

He was very prepared for the next audition of “Treasure Island” with his monologue and pirate voice ready, and he was cast as a JULY 2020

pirate in the play.

That determination and stamina served Harris well when he became a teenager and developed a summer theater camp for kids with a friend. While he intended to become an actor, he continued teaching because he didn’t want anyone to find theater in the way that he did. His first full-time job after graduating from the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga was instructing teachers how to use theater in their classrooms. That focus on education is what brought him to StageOne, where he was originally the education director.

He liked the fact that education has always been the core of what StageOne does, which is different from a theater that also does education.

Most people think of StageOne as the performances it does at Kentucky Performing Arts, but it also has robust in-school programming. Not only do StageOne staff come to the classrooms to instruct students, they meet with teachers individually to collaborate on how to connect theater to what the teacher is actually teaching students, learning what

their goals and objectives are.

“We custom-design that programming so it’s not one-size-fits-all,” he says. “Instructional time is incredibly important so it’s important we design programs that enhance their instructional time.”

StageOne also has a wide range of summer camp programming, the goal of which is to help kids develop life skills such as listening to others and collaborating.

While some of them may go on to pursue theater professionally, most of them will grow, learn, enjoy theater and be the future generation of audience members.

Through his many years at StageOne, Harris has seen producing artistic directors come and go as well as structural changes for the organization. In 2007, StageOne and the former Music Theater of Louisville combined to form a hybrid entity for a number of years. It was at this time that Harris became associate artistic director

while still filling the role of education director, which he did for a number of years. Since the departure of Idris Goodwin, Harris has been serving as interim producing artistic director. “As my wife jokingly called it, the iPad,” he says.

His responsibilities are varied and include identifying talent, hiring actors, directing several shows and guest relations.

“It’s also season selection. I’m constantly looking at what are the trends in theater for young audiences,” he says.

He explains that while some theaters break artistic and business responsibilities into two tracts, StageOne and other companies that follow a producing artistic director model, a single executive “who is responsible for both the artistic vision and programming as well as maintaining, supporting, and supporting the business aspect [marketing, public relations, etc.],” he says.

A huge shift in the industry came in 2010 when the economy bottomed out. StageOne used to do six or seven shows per season, but it scaled back to four shows per season with extended runs.

“We had a comparable amount of performances,” he says.

It also made the decision to retire the Music Theater of Louisville brand. At this time, StageOne developed Play It Forward, a ticket underwriting program to provide free tickets to schools and students that struggle.

Harris says the company made changes to ensure it could meet its business costs, but it asked the public to help support kids.

“It’s a program that continues today. We work tirelessly to remove barriers,” he says.

When planning for upcoming seasons, StageOne works to ensure it is providing shows that children want to see as well as shows that teachers and parents choose to come to. It strives to find a balance between plays that are well-loved or recognizable favorites and those that have important messages. Its show “LawBreakers: A Fast

and Furious History of Women’s Suffrage”

by Diana Grisanti was one that StageOne commissioned.

“Most school audiences aren’t going, ‘Yeah, let’s go to the suffrage play.’ But it’s an incredibly important story that resonates,” he says. “It is still very relevant.”

Harris is excited by the next season of shows, which he says is focused on love, acceptance, words and community and is what he is calling “Our Season of What Matters.”

Although StageOne is beloved by children and families, and many people have wonderful memories of their own childhood experiences at shows or education programming, StageOne isn’t only for children and families.

“Whether you have kids or are just young at heart,” he says. “If you come see the work that we do, you’re going to be engaged.

If you come play with us, you won’t be disappointed.”

When Harris is not crafting shows and educational opportunities at StageOne, he is spending time at home with his wife, Clara, who is a professional actress and playwright, their son, Flynn, and their dog, Copper.

JULY 2020

They enjoy camping and have had great experiences out west at the Grand Canyon and Zion National Park. His son has even convinced him to begin martial arts.

“He looked at me one day and said, ‘Dad, no offense, but you’re kind of fat and out of shape, and I’m afraid you’re gonna die,” Harris says.

In the years since Harris began martial arts, he has caught up in rank with his son in a shared experience they both love.

Scarlet’s Bakery Maintaining Its Mission Despite Coronavirus Writer / Carrie Vittitoe Photographer / Bruce Hardin (Blue Harvest Photography)

Rachelle Starr is not a lifetime Louisvillian, but through her efforts over the years, she has had a profound impact on many of the city’s residents.

The individuals who have personally benefited from Starr’s work are not the wealthy or the well-connected. Many of them have been hidden in a world of trauma and trafficking. Starr’s work to create Scarlet Hope and Scarlet’s Bakery has provided a new start for numerous Kentuckiana women who have determined that adult entertainment is not where they want to spend their lives.

The Beginnings When Rachelle’s husband, Josh, transitioned from the corporate world to

nonprofit work in 2006, they moved to Southern Indiana from Clearwater, Florida (and eventually crossed the bridge to live in the Clifton neighborhood in 2011).

Starr’s background was in advertising and marketing, not social work.

“When I moved up here, I wanted a purpose for my life,” she says. “I really wanted to help people.”

She grew up in a Christian home with a pastor for a father, so acts of service and compassion had been instilled in her from a young age.

they were charity. We were truly coming to share the love of Christ and provide opportunities if anyone wanted that.

She says she realized how much a meal to the women was both physical and relational nourishment. Many of them rarely sat and ate a home-cooked meal in friendship.

Starr says that within six months of visiting the first adult entertainment establishment, she was invited to bring a meal to another one.

“Honestly, we’ve been invited to all of them over the course of 12 years,” she says.

She began visiting adult entertainment venues in 2007 and bringing a meal to share. Rachelle and Josh created Scarlet Hope as an official nonprofit in 2009. While they wanted to continue providing meals, Rachelle also “I didn’t know how they were going to receive us, how they were going to perceive dreamed of creating a business that offered second-chance employment for women, what we were doing,” she says. “We didn’t want to be like we pitied anybody or felt like particularly for those who had legal troubles.

JULY 2020

“When somebody has a criminal background, it is very difficult to get a job that they’re going to be able to support their family at. I wanted to be able to provide a transitional job opportunity for them,” she says.

While making a meal was helpful, Rachelle felt there was more that could be done.

Getting Scarlet’s Bakery to come to fruition was not a quick-andeasy accomplishment. Rachelle unsuccessfully went to the Scarlet Hope board in 2010 and 2012, but she says the timing, people and money didn’t line up until 2014. In December 2015, the first Scarlet’s Bakery location in the Shelby Park neighborhood opened.

How COVID-19 Changed Scarlet’s Bakery Because the Shelby Park venture was going so well, in March 2019 the bakery opened a retail outlet in St. Matthews, which included a coffee and dessert bar. While it was exciting to launch this new space, it meant more stress and logistical challenges since everything that was sold at the St. Matthews shop was made at the Shelby Park location where the program is housed. Rachelle says breaking into the St. Matthews market was difficult due to the high level of competition.

When COVID-19 hit in March 2020, “We were still trying to break even [in St. Matthews]. We were still not where we needed to be,” Rachelle says.

The overhead was high, and the cafe didn’t have the infrastructure to offer drive-thru service. Even though Rachelle created a bakery task force to help her utilize all of the nonprofit’s resources in the most efficient and responsible way, as the quarantine lasted longer, she and her team realized the St. Matthews location would have to close.

Eventually, it became necessary to also close the Shelby Park location’s cafe.

“We’re a nonprofit business, and we’re going to figure out a way, but in this current season, it’s not going to be in retail,” Rachelle says.

Prior to the pandemic, Rachelle and her team had looked into e-commerce, which has now become the way to carry on after the retail closings. Scarlet’s Bakery is currently selling three kinds of cookie mixes, which individuals can order online and bake in their own kitchens. Even without the pandemic, there are a couple benefits to e-commerce.

“It cuts down on a lot of waste, and you can extend your market,” Rachelle says.

Customers can now go to scarletsbakery. org to purchase either chocolate chip cookie mix, Keto pancake mix or lactation cookie mix. Rachelle says they have offered these

options in three distinct niches to see what sells well and what doesn’t. They are offering free shipping and buy one, get one free to encourage sales.

Even though the offerings of Scarlet’s Bakery have changed as a result of COVID-19, the mission hasn’t.

“We don’t just provide jobs. We provide what I call holistic, trauma-informed programming,” Rachelle says, which includes life, job and soft skills, as well as case management. Fitness, financial and parenting classes are part of what Scarlet’s Bakery provides to its employees in the program. Since the bakery opened and programming began, it has been able to provide a job to 36 women. While retail and bakery associates were laid off as a result of the COVID-19 cafe closings, the participants in the program are still taking online classes and being paid.

Scarlet’s Bakery gets referrals from agencies

and has an intake process for women who are interested in second-chance employment. Rachelle says there is an interview process as well as job-readiness assessments.

“If they are not a good fit for our program or aren’t ready, we refer them to another program. We serve anyone and everyone who comes to us,” she says but notes that there are only 20 spots a year for the bakery positions. The program is a 12-month commitment for the women who are hired. Under normal circumstances, Scarlet’s Bakery would be preparing to interview its next round of applicants but due to social distancing, the application process is being postponed.

“In October, we hope to bring in 10 new women,” Rachelle says.

While COVID-19 has been immensely stressful for Rachelle, keeping the mission in mind has helped her stay focused. One of

the things she has lost sleep over is feeling like she is letting down the bakery’s beloved customers who have been sad to see the retail spaces go.

“I love our customers, and I’m thankful for their support, but we just can’t keep doing the same thing,” she says.

In spite of the stress, Rachelle says one of her favorite things to talk about is the women who have successfully completed the Scarlet’s Bakery program and moved onto greater opportunities.

“The very first woman to ever graduate our program got a scholarship to go to Sullivan University, and she graduated with a culinary arts degree,” she says.

Another graduate got her radiology certificate from the University of Louisville.

Another has started nursing school.

Numerous local companies have partnered with Scarlet’s Bakery to offer internships to

women who have completed the program.

In an effort that is as grassroots as it gets, Scarlet Hope is now a national organization with locations in Cincinnati, Ohio, Nashville, Tennessee, Reno, Nevada and Las Vegas, Nevada. The executive directors in these cities are former volunteers with Louisville’s Scarlet Hope who moved away.

“Each one of them wanted to start similar work,” Rachelle says.

While there are other Scarlet Hope locations, Louisville is the only one with a certified kitchen and bakery. Despite having legs in other cities, Rachelle is the primary fundraiser for the organization so she continues to spread the word about its mission both near and far.

“About 30% of our bakery is supported through donations,” she says.

COVID-19 has changed so much of what

is normal for so many people, including Rachelle Star and her Scarlet’s Bakery colleagues, but what hasn’t changed is the motto behind the baked goods. “When people choose Scarlet’s Bakery, they are purchasing for a cause. We like to say we’re baking the world a better place,” she says.

Healthy Living

EATING SEASONALLY & SOURCING LOCALLY Writer / Meredith Iacocca . Photography Provided

When you think of your local Farmer’s Market, you probably don’t get as excited to go in the dead of winter than you would during the peak of summer. Fresh tomatoes! Sweet Corn! Peppers galore!

Yes, the summer seasons of produce do provide us with some beautiful, tasty produce. But what about the rest of the year? We tend to forget that there still is delicious produce to be had all through the year.

It’s easy to miss what’s close by and why it’s so important, maybe because we have the enormous privilege and ability to have almost any type of food all year round.

Tropical fruit, avocados, berries, you name it. It is absolutely a privilege that not all countries have. But why does it matter to eat seasonally? It’s so much easier to just run to the store and grab what you need. Sourcing your food seasonally and locally, however, can have great nutritional and economic advantages.

the avocados must be held at specific temperatures to encourage ripening so that they don’t over-ripen before they reach the consumer. That temperature control need also uses more energy. Also, thousands of gallons taken to support the avocado orchard in the first place can drain natural resources too. Now, I’m not suggesting we boycott avocados and never eat one again, but I want you to understand how much energy is put into one little fruit that we are so used to having available everywhere. It is extremely important to be conscious of the ‘How’ and ‘Where.’

a Rutabaga? How can turnips possibly taste yummy? Often, these nutrient-dense root vegetables can be easy replacements for more common ones like potatoes! I encourage you to simply google whatever new vegetable you want to try and you will be introduced to a slew of ideas of how to make them delicious.

There are endless possibilities.

Along with trying new foods, foods that are grown in season and in healthy soil create a richer, more nutrient dense product. Often when we tune in to the seasonality of food, what is available is often exactly what we need to keep us healthy. Why do we eat Contrast the long and expensive journey of soups when we’re sick? It’s been suggested the healing properties of bone broth is one your avocado to food we have right in our of the reasons why we turn to soup. This is backyard. even more beneficial in the colder seasons In the Midwest, the winter is great especially when everyone around us has a cough or the flu. Eating nutrient dense foods is one of the for hearty root vegetables and rich greens. simplest ways to boost your body’s immune Often, we may feel too intimidated to buy more local produce in colder seasons because system and fight off illness. we may not know what do to with it or how to prepare it.

aspect of eating seasonally is how much more of your money goes back into your very own community. When you shop locally, on average 48% of each purchase gets recirculated locally compared to less than 14% at a chain retailer. Dollar for dollar, your money has greater impact when it stays close to home.

It may be easier or more convenient to just head to your local chain retailer for food but know that your dollars count. Your dollars impact your health, your community and the people within it. Don’t be intimidated to embrace a new vegetable, learn what your region grows and support it!

TIPS FOR GRADUATES ENTERING THE JOB MARKET Writer / Elizabeth Shultz

than ever before.

than those who do not.

Today’s young adults face unprecedented challenges in starting their careers, given the rising cost of higher education, decreasing earning potential attached to a degree, and current difficulties related to the coronavirus outbreak. The job market reflects skyrocketing unemployment rates, uncertainty among employers, increasing reliance on remote connections, and the consideration of outbreak-related risks and hazards in the workplace - not to mention the ambiguity of online learning options, as colleges scramble to address social distancing requirements. What is a recent graduate to do?

How will various fields change? For example, in the field of child care and early education, many families are hesitant to send their children back to school. Many companies are hiring for in-home services, including tutor and nanny jobs.

Participate in online job fairs. More and more employers are offering this option.

Even if you are not sure, it’s still a good idea to check it out. You never know when you might make a good connection.

POST-SECONDARY OPTIONS

Most colleges and universities are still considering their plans for instruction in the fall. Think about your school’s capability for remote learning. Do they have an established distance education program?

What skills are required for successful online learning versus in-person education?

THE JOB MARKET

Remote interviews are a whole new ball game, but there are some skills that will always be needed regardless of how an interview takes place. Be on time. This means log in at least 15 minutes prior to the interview time. Find a quiet place in your home (never outside), free from distractions. Be aware of what is in your background. Dress professionally and Consider whether a given job will be reliable keep your cellular phone turned off. Have or essential. Some fields are booming prepared questions ready for the employer including health care, technology and the when it’s your turn. Include questions grocery business. Next, what are the new about training and potential for upward and emerging jobs? Each state publishes mobility. information quarterly regarding job numbers. Second-quarter data will provide Remote networking is becoming more some indications of which industries have and more impactful. Online presence, been hit the hardest, and which have gained. including social media posts, should Consider what new jobs or industries may be kept professional. Employers can, arise from these shifts. and often do, search for candidates on Google before extending job offers. Avoid Think about the increased need for software, posting overly political, racial or religious as we shift to an increasing number of comments, even on other people’s pages. remote options for connecting. Software Young people who have LinkedIn profiles sales jobs are booming. Information and are somewhat active usually enjoy technology jobs are in more demand now more attention from prospective employers Reconsider your major. The job market just took a catastrophic hit. Many employers are not reopening, and this will have long-lasting impacts across multiple industries. Remote work is changing the workforce, including the way jobs are performed and the skills employers will be looking for in candidates.

JULY 2020

Have a strong professional resume. As we shift from in-person networking to connecting remotely, this will help you stand out from the other candidates. It always pays to be ready when opportunity knocks.

GOOD HABITS

Focus on life skills. There is so much not taught in school that we need to learn, in order to function successfully in adulthood.

For example, creating a budget and saving for the future is important. There are also many college-level extension and certificate programs at little or no cost, through services such as Coursera.

Have some downtime? Try volunteering.

This looks great on your resume, helps to make meaningful connections, and gives you an option for trying out a work situation before making a commitment.

If you aren’t sure what the future holds, don’t worry. Many people are taking life day by day. During this time, it is important to practice good mental health.

Uncertainty exacerbates the normal stress young people feel when establishing themselves. Connecting with a therapist can be helpful to mitigate negative emotions and keep you on track. There are many telehealth options to make therapy safe and convenient. It also helps to have a career counselor, coach or mentor to help walk you through your options.

“As weird as it may sound, I need negativity and doubt in my life, as it helps drive my creativity and competitiveness,” Jonathan says. “So I made the decision and that was that.”

He has traveled. He’s a father of two. He’s dethroned Michael Bublé from the number one spot on the jazz Billboard chart. Jonathan Hay has worked with numerous well-known The first album Hay produced was “When artists, and for the past 10 years has worked Music Worlds Collide,” which he out of his studio in Jeffersontown. says included a lot of major hip-hop collaborations.

He began producing four years ago after being a publicist for over two decades. He “The album also received the TIDAL Rising wanted to switch up his career and produce award from Jay-Z’s streaming company,” he music full time. He said it might’ve been a says. “I co-produced that album with Mike midlife crisis since he was 40 at the time, but Smith and Sirius XM DJ King Tech.” he hasn’t looked back since. An ex-fiancée of nine years, who at the time wasn’t happy Hay says the album launched his career. The about that decision, thought they’d suffer album is only available on TIDAL, Apple financially and that the decision would harm Music and Amazon. their lifestyle. Understandably, Jonathan says, she was concerned.

Hay’s background includes making music

out of his father Wayne’s basement when he was a teenager.

“In 1994 I started working with “Studio 550” and their indie record label that was downtown on 550 South 5th Street,” Hay says. “My first taste of the professional industry was with 550 and Michael Jackson’s group “Quo” who signed to MJJ Productions. In 1995, also through the 550 label, I got my professional start on a song with a local singer and radio personality named Herlon Robinson for his album “Gotta Get My Groove On” that was sold in record stores regionally.”

A few years later Hay’s career as a publicist began, and he became part of the recordbreaking “Days of the New” act that sold millions of records.

JeffersontownMag.com / JULY 2020 / JEFFERSONTOWN MAGAZINE / 25

“I was dealing with major labels like Geffen and Interscope Records and I had no idea what I was doing,” Hay says. “I do know that if “Days of the New” didn’t exist, neither would Nicole Scherzinger of the “Pussycat Dolls,” or “Tantric,” who was signed to Madonna’s label “Maverick” and also went multi-platinum. Travis Meeks, Gary Meeks and “Days of the New” deserve way more respect and credit in the Louisville, Kentucky, area than what they get.”

These experiences led Hay to work with the Grammy-nominated “Nappy Roots,” who have sold millions of records.

Hay recently hit the top of the jazz Billboard charts with “Follow the Leader” and “Jazz Part Two.” “Both of the albums were pretty much done right here in Louisville, Kentucky, at my home studio in St. Matthews,” Hay says.

At the moment Hay has one album, “Follow the Leader,” on Spotify, and he and his team are currently in negotiation to include the rest of his catalog on the Spotify format.

“Jazz Part Two is a very strange album for me,” Hay says. “I put it together during a really dark, difficult and emotional time, so it’s extremely personal and probably way too vulnerable. It’s very rewarding that it reached number two on the Billboard jazz charts. As for Follow the Leader, that project has literally blown my mind.”

Hay recently signed a deal with “Fat Beats,” a manufacturer and distributor of vinyl records, CDs and cassettes.

Hay says he has a long list of known acts that he’s worked with.

“I’ve pretty much worked with all my heroes,” he says. “Currently I’m working with the iconic group Eric B. & Rakim on “Follow the Leader” reimagined as jazz.”

At that point, I usually travel to wherever they are. But if a major act wants to cut vocals with me in Louisville I’ll tend to go to Downtown Recording Studio on 5th Street, as it has a lot of space to accommodate an entourage.”

LOUISVILLE COMPANY LENDS A HAND TO LOCAL FOOD PANTRIES Writer / Karen Kushner

Louisville-based SHALIA Botanicals recently found out about a nearly empty food pantry at Jeffersontown Area Ministries, and swiftly took action through donations to help make sure that local families are able to continue to put meals on their tables.

“We are glad to be supporting local families and organizations during these challenging times,” says Angelia Inscoe, founder and CEO of Induction Therapies/SHALIA Botanicals. “Our small business is suffering financially right now, but if some of our local families don’t have food to put on their table, we all need to come together and help each other right now.”

Marlon Cummings, executive director for Jeffersontown Area Ministries, was grateful for the donation and offered to share it with Eastern Area Community Ministries located on Westport Road in Louisville.

“Our local residents have always been very generous, and continue to be during the coronavirus,” Cummings says. “They drop off groceries, send Amazon orders right to us and have really rallied, even with the quarantine. The big problem right now is that the local family requests for food are up 30%, and we haven’t peaked yet.”

Thom Blincoe, vice president of marketing at Induction Therapies, says he wasn’t surprised when he heard about Inscoe’s

desire to begin making donations, despite the company’s dipping sales.

“She’s got a big heart and is a great soul,” Blincoe says.

To make a donation, contact Jeffersontown Area Ministries at 502-267-1055, or Eastern Area Community Ministries at 502-426-2824.

Induction Therapies, maker of SHALIA Botanicals, is a Louisville-based company that formulates, bottles, labels and ships medical-grade skincare domestically and internationally. Induction Therapies also owns Collagen P.I.N., The A Method and ColorLogix.
