SUMMARY:Naomi Shihab Nye at Town Hall
DESCRIPTION:Internationally beloved poet Naomi Shihab Nye’s latest collection\, The Tiny Journalist\, is a collection inspired by seven-year-old Janna Tamimi\, the “Youngest Journalist in Palestine\,” who captured videos of anti-occupation protests with her mother’s smartphone. \nNaomi Shihab Nye describes herself as a “wandering poet.” She has spent 40 years traveling the country and the world to lead writing workshops and inspiring students of all ages. Nye was born to a Palestinian father and an American mother and grew up in St. Louis\, Jerusalem\, and San Antonio. Drawing on her Palestinian-American heritage\, the cultural diversity of her home in Texas\, and her experiences traveling in Asia\, Europe\, Canada\, Mexico\, and the Middle East\, Nye uses her writing to attest to our shared humanity. – Steven Barclay Agency \n  \nThursday\, September 19\, 2019 7:30 pm at Town Hall Seattle \nTickets go on sale July 15th!

SUMMARY:Mary Ann Peters - Traveler at James Harris Gallery
DESCRIPTION:“I work from the premise that images are never neutral and that they sustain layered meaning from the inception of an idea to the completed piece. Historical narratives\, architecture\, science\, personal heritage\, politics and questions of perception have all played a part in my thinking over the years.  I look for seemingly disparate elements that can coalesce and redefine a topic.  I have traveled extensively\, most frequently in non-Western cultures. Traveling has informed my understanding of the global roots of aesthetics. It consistently defines for me those social practices that provide outlines for cultural inquiry\, including which ethical questions should be considered or supported. In the end I work to the afterimage of the viewer and the potential discourse that might ensue.  The kiss of death for any artist is the work that no one can remember.” \n– Mary Ann Peters \nMary Ann Peters lives and works in Seattle\, WA  She received an MFA from the University of Washington in 1978. She has received numerous awards including an Art Matters Foundaton Grant\, New York that allowed her to travel to Paris and Mexico City to research the migration from the Middle East after World War II\, a grant from The New Foundation\, Seattle in 2014\,  a MacDowell Fellowship in 2010\, a Jentel residency in 2009\, the Northwest Institute of Architecture & Urban Studies in Italy (NIAUSI) residency in 2003 and the Neddy Fellowship from the Behnke Foundation in 2000. Collections include Microsoft\, Seattle Art Museum\, 4Culture\, Tacoma Art Museum\, and others.

SUMMARY:People of The Book - by Yussef El Guindi
DESCRIPTION:Yussef El-Guindi is one of the most talented playwrights in the country today\, and he happens to live in Seattle. He earned a Stranger Genius Award in 2015\, shortly after the premiere of his play Threesome\, about an Egyptian American couple who set out to spice up their sex life by inviting an absolute doofus of a white guy into their bedroom.  El Guindi’s new play\, People of the Book\, involves more sexual jealousy across cultural traditions\, as well as a soldier-turned-writer whose massive success with a memoir inspires jealousy from some old high school friends. – Stranger \nPeople of the Book is a very personal play that speaks to much larger national themes.  It’s a gripping drama that is inspired by Euripedes’ Medea and crackles with the kind of contemporary wit that we have come to love about Yussef’s writing.  – Director\, John Langs \nPlease check the Act Theatre’s website for details regarding showtimes and ticket prices. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Reclaiming History:  A Panel - Brick and Mortar Book Store
DESCRIPTION:Brick and Mortar will be hosting a panel at the end of summer on Reclaiming History\, delving into a range of subjects on the myriad ways marginalized people are erased and why that matters in our fiction. \nThere will be a brilliant group of panelists whose work all touches on this subject in different ways: Olivia Waite (The Lady’s Guide to Celestial Mechanics)\, Somaiya Daud (Mirage)\, Lauren Dane (Whiskey Sharp series)\, Jasmine Silvera (Grace Bloods series)\, and A.J. Hackwith (The Library of the Unwritten). \nFrom forgotten queer and black history to the erasure of women’s work throughout history in artistic and scientific fields\, we hope you’ll join us in interrogating the ways our society has deliberately chosen to remember and represent its history and what that means for us today\, in our world and in our stories.

SUMMARY:Samia at Thing Festival in Port Townsend
DESCRIPTION:There’s a line on Honey\, the latest album from Nashville-via-NYC songwriter Samia\, about Aspen Grove\, a collection of 40\,000 trees in the plains of North America\, all connected by a single expansive root system. There’s no stronger metaphor for the audience the 25-year-old empathy engine has been generating since she began releasing music seven years ago. Her songs\, her fans\, her friends: one enormous\, interconnected ecosystem. \nHoney\, comprised of eleven new moments of catharsis\, is by and for that organism. Set for release on January 23rd 2023 via Grand Jury Music\, the album was recorded at North Carolina studio Betty’s — – owned and operated by Sylvan Esso’s Nick Sandborn and Amelia Meath. It was produced by Caleb Wright\, part of the team that helmed Samia’s breakthrough 2020 debut The Baby\, and a founding member of one of Samia’s favorite bands\, The Happy Children. It features some of her nearest and dearest friends: Christian Lee Hutson\, Briston Maroney\, Jake Luppen\, Raffaella. Its songs were surreptitiously road tested for her devotees while opening for Lucy Dacus\, Courtney Barnett\, and more.

SUMMARY:Sudan Archives at Thing Festival in Port Townsend
DESCRIPTION:Violinist and vocalist\, Sudan Archives writes\, plays\, and produces her own music. Drawing inspiration from Sudanese fiddlers\, she is self-taught on the violin\, and her unique songs also fold in elements of R&B\, and experimental electronic music. \nSudan Archives grew up in Cincinnati\, Ohio\, where she “messed around with instruments in the house” and took up violin in the fourth grade\, eventually teaching herself how to play the instrument by ear. When she discovered the violin playing style of Northeast Africa\, her eyes opened to the possibilities of the instrument. “The way they played it was different from classical music. I resonated with the style\, and I was like\, ‘Maybe I can use this style with electronic music\,'” she says. \nThis fusing of folk music and electronic production was the turning point for Sudan. “I started mixing my violin into beats\,” she says\, “It wasn’t complicated — I’d just sing straight into the iPad.” She honed her at-home style after moving to Los Angeles aged 19 to study music technology\, and after a chance encounter at a Low End Theory party with Stones Throw A&R and Leaving Records owner Matthewdavid\, she signed with Stones Throw. At the very start of her musical career\, she’s already won plaudits from the likes of the New York Times and Pitchfork\, and played live at experimental festival Moogfest. \nHer EP Sudan Archives is an extraordinary debut statement from a singular artist. Over six tracks\, Sudan Archives layers harmonies\, violin figures and ethereal vocals\, grounding them all with the hip-hop beats. \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesudanarchives \nExact time is unclear.

SUMMARY:Bedouine at Thing Festival in Port Townsend
DESCRIPTION:Azniv’s experience of life is extraordinary. She was born in Aleppo\, Syria\, and swiftly moved to Saudi Arabia where she did most of her growing up until the age of ten. Her family won a Green Card Lottery and she went to an American school and lived in an ex-pat community. Her dad was a singer and would play traditional Armenian and Arabic music at home but Azniv didn’t make the connection in familial passion there until she was much older. “My music sounds so traditionally American and I’m not sure how that happened\,” she offers\, recalling that it wasn’t until her twenties that she discovered ’60s folk music and picked up a guitar. \nShe certainly never believed that music could be a career. Serving more as a healing process than any kind of professional pursuit she worked in sound design in her own little slice of Hollywood (incidentally\, where she met Gus) and wrote and wrote\, and from this well of songs\, she’s now arrived at more than two albums. “All my work is on the front end\,” she says. “All I can do is make sure I’m doing my best\, putting my best foot forward\, and honoring my emotional experience\, but what it does in the end can’t matter as much.” For Bedouine\, the songs have already served their healing purpose. Now it’s time for them to move others. \nBird Songs of a Killjoy follows her 2017 self-titled debut album via Spacebomb Records to widespread critical acclaim including a 5/5 The Independent album review and features everywhere from Vogue and Rolling Stone to The FADERand Stereogum. In the last year\, she has toured  alongside Fleet Foxes\, Kevin Morby\, Jose Gonzalez\, Father John Misty\, Michael Kiwanuka\, Hurray for the Riff Raff\,  Waxahatchee and Real Estate with sold-out headline show at New York City’s Joe’s Pub (“she sounds like a future legend — the sort of musician one will later wish to have seen back when\, at a small performance like this Thursday-night show.” – New York Times). \nThis second album continues her creative partnership with Gus Seyffert (Beck\, Michael Kiwanuka) who she met when working as a sound engineer in LA. “It’s called Bird Songs of a Killjoy\, and I’m the killjoy\,” Azniv grins. She describes the sometime perception of herself as a curmudgeon and a depressive. “Dare I say – a difficult woman\,” she continues\, laughing. “I’m taking ownership of that stereotype\, proudly. The music itself however\, is the farthest from curmudgeonly or depressive as could be. It’s a soundtrack to Spring blossom\, to warm air on skin\, to the concept of possibility.” \nAmazingly\, despite the successes since her debut release\, Bird Songs of a Killjoy rejects any pressures to be some kind of grand evolution from before. When her self-titled debut came out in the summer of 2017\, Azniv was entirely unknown\, and wasn’t necessarily looking to change that. The album she wrote in her free time while dealing with some emotional trauma and locking herself away in her house\, was an exercise in diarizing\, in expression without expectations. Some of the songs on this second effort were from that same time period of fruitful creativity. This time however\, there was more effort to concentrate on a cohesive beginning\, middle and end. It was her biggest challenge\, and it paid off. This is more than a mere collection of songs\, and for that reason\, includes a reprise of one song and features re-occurring musical motifs and hidden tracks. \nExact time is unclear. Please check event website for details. \nBedouine Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/BedouineMusic/
