They also play their own original music. This is a show not to be missed!

TUXEDO JUNCTION has been referred to in area media as the “regional quintessential cover music band” and... it still is! No area band does the variety of material this band does - and with 3, 4, and 5 part harmonies! This six-piece group is known for its variety, performing the hits from Swing, Country, Country Rock, Classic Rock, Pop, Folk, Funk and Disco. Tuxedo Junction covers it ALL!

Join us at Dreaming Stone Arts and Ecology Center on November 15th for the next concert in our series, “The Music That Reconnects” with “Ways of Remembrance.” This event is a continuation of our fall and winter concert series that will feature fantastically talented musicians and educators who draw from varied musical traditions to connect us more deeply with ourselves, each other, and the world.

Aditi, Jay & Joel are providing a night of contemplative roots music, building upon our seasonal focus of remembering and honoring the cycles of life and death that weave us together. This event marks the second concert in “The Music That Reconnects” series, offering soul-illuminating sound that weaves together Indian and American folk and spiritual music.

Aditi Sethi, M.D., works as a Hospice physician, is an end-of-life doula, and is the executive director of the Center for Conscious Living and Dying. Jay Brown is a musician and Hospice music therapist. Joel Karabo Elliot is a convener for Roots Grown Deep, a cross-continental ‘beyond genre’ musical and educational ensemble that curates a soundscape called Musical Ecology, supported by a wider family of leaders working on regenerative projects.

In 1984, well before the explosion of extended instrumental concerts, an improvisational band playing original music named Indecision emerged out of Charlottesville, Virginia. Drawing from a wide variety of influences, including The Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, The Band, Steely Dan, and Little Feat, as well as the more complex rhythmic and harmonic structure of many jazz artists, Indecision forged a unique sound in the relatively new movement of improvisational music known today as the jam band scene.

Presents

TOM EURE and AMELIA OSBORNE
North Carolina Folk Duo

FLAT ROCK, N.C. — Versatile musicians will present an afternoon concert inside the Parish Hall of The Episcopal Church of St. John in the Wilderness on Sunday November 16 at 4:00 p.m. The event is free and open to the public, but donations will be gratefully accepted to further the ongoing Friends of Music & the Arts series.

Tom Eure and Amelia Osborne are a lively Carolina folk pair from the Charlotte area who offer a melding of Celtic, Appalachian and spiritual influences. Their style fluidly changes from one instrument to the next, swirling together fiddles, banjos, bodhran, mandolins, guitars, and rousing vocal harmony. They’re going on ten years performing together.

Here’s a video clip from an earlier live concert: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzojijGz1Mc

One reviewer of their first album, "The Coin, The Prayer & The Crow," compared it to an artist pouring old wine into new bottles and making the listeners believe. The duo flourish as artists, multi-instrumentalists, songwriters, and activists, always striving to paint a picture that is fresh and uplifting. “A Promise of Hope” is their second album with a third on its way.

Free parking and handicapped access are available. The Parish Hall is across Rutledge Drive from the church at 1905 Greenville Highway in Flat Rock. For more information call the church office at 828-693-9783 or visit www.stjohnflatrock.org.

This year's event will bring three bands (Several Dudes, Karma Dogs, and Mission Accomplished) to the stage for an evening of music and FUNdraising for the United Stroke Alliance and Asheville on Bikes. These organizations work to improve lives through advocacy, education, and social support. Our goal is to not only raise money but also raise awareness of time-sensitive emergencies, stroke, heart attacks and trauma.
