Jeff Byrd (go to https://rawartists.org/jeffbyrd to sample his music!)
Frank Jones (go to https://frankjonesmusic.com to sample his music!)
The second son of Bob and Rita Marley, eight-time Grammy-winning musician and producer Stephen began his career as a precocious six-year old singing, dancing and playing percussion with his siblings in the group The Melody Makers. As a teenager he assisted in the production of The Melody Makers’ albums including three that would win the Grammy for Best Reggae Album.
In 1993, Stephen co-founded Ghetto Youths International with older brother Ziggy as a means of controlling their own music and helping upcoming artists. Stephen’s earliest solo production efforts include his late grandmother’s album My Altar, followed in 1995 by Ziggy Marley and The Melody Makers single “Works To Do” and younger brother Damian’s “10,000 Chariots.” In 1996, Damian released his debut album, Mr. Marley, on the Ghetto Youths imprint. Stephen played several instruments and wrote most of the songs, in addition to producing the album.
The first project that brought Stephen’s production capabilities widespread attention was Chant Down Babylon, where he audaciously manipulated his father’s original vocal outtakes from the 1970s Island Records’ sessions, splicing them into duets with hip-hop and R&B artists, while updating the Wailers’ richly textured one-drop rhythms with an assortment of samples, loops and overdubs. Chant Down Babylon achieved its objective of bringing Bob’s music to a new generation of fans, earned a Grammy nomination, was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America, and has sold more than one million copies worldwide.
Stephen’s first solo effort, Mind Control, won a Grammy for Best Reggae Album in 2007. In 2008, Marley released an acoustic version of the hit album, which gained the artist another Grammy. In 2011, Stephen released his third solo album, The Revelation, Pt.1: The Root of Life, which reconfirmed Stephen’s expansive capabilities as an affecting vocalist, a versatile lyricist, and an accomplished instrumentalist, while furthering his renown as an ingenious producer.
Stephen continued to showcase his talent for navigating between genres by effortlessly blending reggae with soul, hip hop and electronic beats on his fourth solo album, Revelation Part II: The Fruit of Life, released in 2016. A robust reflection of his work, the album features songs with notable artists including Rakim, Dead Prez, Wyclef Jean, Black Thought, Shaggy, Pitbull, Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley, and more.
His appearance at the BCT is part of the Acoustic Jams Tour and his daughter, Mystic Marley, will open the show. Doors will open for this GENERAL ADMISSION performance at 7:30pm. There will not be seats in the orchestra pit.

Set a few years after Belarus gained independence in 1990, this vibrant debut feature by writer/director Darya Zhuk follows the path of young Evelina, who dreams of moving to Chicago where she could pursue her passion for house music. However, obtaining a U.S. visa proves a difficult endeavor and, determined to flee the country, the young woman takes the risk of buying a letter of employment from the black market. Depicting a nation anticipating a brighter future, Crystal Swan is a story about a woman and her country, where feelings of self and belonging are yet to be defined. The film was selected as the Belarusian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 91st Academy Awards—Belarus’s first Oscar submission in 22 years. The Crystal Swan soundtrack features tracks from a handful of Chicago club legends, including Marshall Jefferson and Derrick Carter. In Russian with English subtitles. Contains mature content, including sexual violence and drug references.
The Brother Brothers carry the folk tradition for a new generation. Identical twins David and Adam Moss honor contemporary aches with the nostalgic tenderness of another time on their debut full-length album, SOME PEOPLE I KNOW, out October 19, 2018 on Compass Records. Their stunning songcraft blends masterfully gentle guitar, cello and five-string fiddle with the sublime sort of two-part harmonies only brothers can carry. Their palpably fraternal stage presence and wonderfully familiar heart have earned repute among a modern folk scene; The Brother Brothers have recently opened for Big Thief, Lake Street Dive, Shakey Graves and more.
The album’s title, SOME PEOPLE I KNOW, refers to the personal nature of these songs. As David explains, “I think every song on the album is about a person or a character, and in a way, it’s a reflection of ourselves.” For example, “Mary Ann,” written by David, is an encouraging ode to a friend with depression. “Banjo Song,” written by Adam, conveys a conversation with someone who gives up playing an instrument after a hurtful breakup. Though he’s usually on fiddle, Adam plays banjo on the track; throughout the album, David plays guitar and cello.
Recorded at Mark Ettinger’s Lethe Lounge in New York City with producer Robin Macmillan and engineer Jefferson Hamer, The Brother Brothers capably capture a modern snapshot of their surroundings. Yet, SOME PEOPLE I KNOW retains a timeless feel – something that the brothers were aiming for.
“I just want people to listen to it once and want to listen to it again,” David says of the album. “And every time they listen to it, I want them to find something new and in some way relate it to themselves. Whether they’re listening to it today or in 40 years, I hope it will make them feel just the same.”
Food Truck Fridays are presented by The Chocolate Moose.For more information about live music and participating food trucks each week please check the Facebook page.

All are invited to celebrate the beginning of Bloomington summer with a First Friday block party. West Fourth Street will be closed for a block on either side of Rogers Street with plentiful art, food, music, and activities for all ages.

Sets by Busman’s Holiday, DJs from Secretly Group, and a local jazz combo will be happening throughout the evening.
For families, Lotus will offer art-making activities, goats from Goat Conspirary Farm will make an appearance, and plenty of sidewalk chalk will be available for impromptu creation. Satori Martial Arts will provide live martial arts demos for adults and kids.

Down the block near Third and Rogers, the offices of Secretly Group will also have open doors, with a staff art show in their breezeway.
On Friday, June 7th, beginning at 5:00 p.m. The Venue will welcome back to the Bloomington art community, Linda Lorton Spier. A former mainstay of Blooomington’s Gallery North, Linda moved her primary Gallery outlet to Nashville, Indiana, and then on to her present studio in Carmel, Indiana. With this show at The Venue Fine Art & Gifts, Linda’s artistic journey has come full circle.
As is our custom for Gallery Walk, we will serve gourmet soup and other taste treats. Our regular collection will also be on display for viewing and purchase.
See You Friday.
“The Artwork of Mark Riggins: A Pen and Ink Tribute to Bloomington and Southern Indiana”
Mark is a lifelong resident of Bloomington and has been interested in creating artwork in various media all his life, but began work in pen and ink in 1980.

In 1969 the police raided the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar in New York City’s Greenwich Village, leading to three nights of rioting by the city’s gay community. With this outpouring of courage and unity the gay liberation movement had begun.
Before Stonewall pries open the closet door, setting free the dramatic story of the sometimes horrifying public and private existences experienced by LGBT Americans since the early 1900’s. Revealing and often humorous, this widely acclaimed film relives the emotionally-charged sparking of today’s gay rights movement, from the events that led to the fevered 1969 riots to many other milestones in the brave fight for acceptance.
Narrated by iconic author Rita Mae Brown. Groundbreaking interviews with Ann Bannon, Martin Duberman, Allen Ginsberg, Barbara Gittings, Harry Hay, Mabel Hampton, Dr. Evelyn Hooker, Frank Kameny, Audre Lorde, and Richard Bruce Nugent (87 min)
A NOTE FROM CARI ABOUT THE “FOR A SONG” SERIES:
As I’ve been out touring the region and the country, one of the most amazing things has been the willingness of fellow songwriters to help a new girl in a new town…from sharing connections and putting in a good word, to sharing their stages and fans. So it was on my mind for some time to create an opportunity close to home where I might be able return the favor.
I had been working with Chateau Thomas Winery (Now Country Heritage Winery) in Nashville, IN for a few years to cultivate a singular, listening room atmosphere in a tourist town full of bar gigs. And we were able to do so with surprising success. So when I thought about who I’d like to partner with to bring this idea to life, the listening room and the audience we had built there seemed the perfect choice. And the support of the winery means the only costs to the audience are time, attention, and the generosity they choose to express through the tip jar.
I hosted the first “For a Song” Series of writers in the round at the Nashville Tasting Room April 28, 2017. Two accomplished songwriters and I sat in front of a packed house of listeners and spent the evening sharing our songs and the stories behind them. No two FAS evenings are alike as each new pair of writers joining me brings a different flavor, but the evenings have felt consistently warm, fun and connected. My goal is to continue offering fellow songwriters an opportunity to sit in front of an appreciative, listening crowd and to offer that audience a high-quality performance of original music by the artists who created it.
Folks can expect a laid-back evening…an opportunity to slow down, focus, and reconnect.

Juliette Binoche and Guillame Canet reunite with acclaimed director Olivier Assayas (Personal Shopper, Summer Hours) for this wry, seductive tale of sex, lies, and literature. Set amidst the bohemian intelligentsia of the Parisian publishing world, Non-Fiction traces the romantic and emotional fallout that results when a controversial writer blurs the line between fact and fiction, using his real-life love affairs—including a passionate fling with an actress (Binoche) who happens to be married to his editor (Canet)—as fodder for his explosive new novel. Balancing dry wit with keen observations on the tensions between art, commerce, and technology, Non-Fiction is a buoyant, breezy delight from a master director at his most effortlessly brilliant.

RESILIENCE is a one-hour documentary that delves into the science of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and the birth of a new movement to treat and prevent Toxic Stress. Now understood to be one of the leading causes of everything from heart disease and cancer to substance abuse and depression, extremely stressful experiences in childhood can alter brain development and have lifelong effects on health, learning, and behavior. However, as experts and practitioners profiled in RESILIENCE are proving, what’s predictable is preventable. These physicians, educators, social workers and communities are daring to talk about the effects of divorce, abuse and neglect. And they’re using cutting edge science to help the next generation break the cycles of adversity and disease.
A facilitated panel discussion with Q&A will follow the hour-long film. The panel will include key stakeholders from our community who work with our children and youth across systems. Your participation is important to harnessing efforts and sparking community action.
