Lo Monaco and Evan Bartels live at Mockingbird
2023-07-20 20:00 | The Mockingbird Theater at The Factory at Franklin, 230 Franklin Road, Bldg 6, Franklin, TN, 37064, United States
Lo Monaco is an acoustic/alternative pop singer/songwriter with heartfelt lyrics, passionate vocals, and honest, emotive delivery. He writes his music from a very genuine and personal perspective, crafting engaging stories through complex melodies. Lo Monaco brings the excitement of his music to life on stage through looping and playing a mixture of his acoustic guitar and FX pedals, creating ambient sounds and percussive beats on the body of his Cole Clark. His creative practice is primarily inspired by artists such as Dallas Green, Dermot Kennedy, Bon Iver, U2, & INXS. These influences shine through in both his live and studio production.
Evan Bartels is a Nebraska born singer/songwriter living in Nashville. Evan comes from a town of 100 people called Tobias. Found on a lone stretch of highway that cuts across the Nebraskan prairie, it’s a place that offers immeasurable freedom, while threatening a life of unanswered wanting. It was here the sentiment behind his work was forged. Storytelling has always been a fixture in his writing, and Bartels continues to evolve his narratives by digging deeper beneath the surface and clinging to an authentic message. He captures a moment and fleshes it out to its barest, rawest form, thereby creating a piece of art that—regardless of genre or setting—moves the listener.

JD Souther
2023-07-21 20:00 | The Franklin Theatre, 419 Main Street, Franklin, 37064, United States
JD Souther – The Franklin Theatre
Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee JD Souther is “one of the most celebrated songwriters of his generation,” writes Interview Magazine. “Raised on a steady diet of big band and jazz during his childhood, Souther has routinely returned to that music—as well as the genius songwriters of the early 20th century (Gershwin, Cole Porter)—for inspiration. On his latest studio album, Tenderness, Souther combines these musical threads, striking a perfect balance between understated jazz and the ineffable pop narratives that have been the backbone of much of his greatest work.”
JD’s latest releases include Tenderness (Sony Music Masterworks), described by Uncut Magazine as an album that connects “LA’s ‘70s golden age with the Great American Songbook,” with songs that “sound like standards themselves.” Souther has also reissued expanded editions of John David Souther, Black Rose and Home By Dawn (Omnivore Recordings), followed by a reissue of Longbrach/Pennywhistle (September, 2018 / UME).
Longtime friends Glenn Frey and JD Souther known as Longbranch/Pennywhistle originally released on the Amos label in 1969, the self-titled Longbranch/Pennywhistle may have ultimately been consigned to the side bins of the acid-rock era, but songs like “Kite Woman” and “Run, Boy, Run” serve as the literal seeds of the country-rock movement Frey and the Eagles perfected to a T. Besides navigating the success of his own fine solo career (see “You’re Only Lonely”), Souther also went on to be a chief Frey collaborator on such pivotal Eagles songs as “Best of My Love,” “New Kid in Town,” and “Heartache Tonight.”
Souther has penned countless hits for the Eagles, Linda Ronstadt, Roy Orbison, James Taylor, Don Henley, George Strait, Trisha Yearwood, Brooks and Dunn and others; while establishing a cult following as a performer with the Souther-Hillman-Furay Band and as a solo artist. As an actor, he has appeared in the TV Shows Thirtysomething and Nashville, among others. A passionate animal lover and advocate, JD is also involved with Best Friends Animal Society.
“Souther proves his work holds up as well as Dylan’s or Simon’s or Lennon and McCartney’s and… deserves such astute re-examination.” – JazzTimes

Owl’s Hill Nature Sanctuary – Creative Writing Workshop – Summer Series
This morning workshop offers an opportunity for those who love nature, writing, and creativity to come together and pursue all three in a small group setting (10-person maximum). Facilitated in the Amherst Writers & Artists method, this workshop is designed to nurture the inherent creative abilities of every participant. Are you curious about writing in nature or about nature? Do you regularly journal or keep a blog? Do you write professionally? Has it been years since picking up a pen? Do you want to create a writing practice for yourself?
With nature as our inspiration and subject, we’ll write to at least three prompts with an opportunity to share with the group. This is not a critique workshop. When words are brand new on the page we do not edit or perfect. We respond with what resonated in a strong way and what we remember. We’ll discuss the AWA philosophy and practices at the beginning of each workshop, and encourage participants to learn more here: Philosophy and Practices ⋆ Amherst Writers & Artists
What to bring:

Notebook and pen, journal and colored pencils, laptop — your choice!
Optional: A sack lunch to enjoy following the workshop, as well as comfortable shoes, sunscreen, and insect repellent to explore the trails at Owl’s Hill.

Please plan to arrive by 9:15 am to park, get settled in our space, and prepare to begin the workshop on time.
