Bluegrass Grammy Award Nominees Raymond McLain and Mike Stevens will be in Upper Coverdale, NB on Tuesday August the 10th performing a House Concert at the home of Ivan and Vivian Hicks.
The show will begin at 7:30 pm. Space is limited so reservations are required.
Tickets for the Hicks' House Concert are $15 and can be obtained by calling Ivan and Vivian at 506 386-2996, 506 386-5812 or email ivan@ivanhicks.com
Mike Stevens and Raymond McLain are a dynamic Bluegrass and Old Tyme duo. Among the many accolades they have received is a Grammy Nomination in the late 1980’s when playing with Jim and Jesse McReynolds and the Virginia Boys.
Mike is acknowledged as one of the best Harmonica Players on the PLANET! He goes where no other player goes with this unconventional bluegrass instrument. He has been labeled a true innovator in his genre. In fact his techniques are studied around the world and documented in the Smithsonian Institution. He tours internationally including recent forays to Taiwan and Japan. In addition he has performed more than 300 times on the Grand Ole Opry Stage.
Mike is also renowned for his work with ArtsCan Circle a charity he founded to help at risk youth in the north. Through ArtsCan Mike collects instruments to be taken north and encourages kids there to learn music and express themselves.
Raymond McLain is a truly amazing musician. He is featured in “Masters of the Five String Banjo” and has influenced many including the playing style of Bela Fleck. He has toured in more than 60 countries, performed at Carnegie Hall, the Lincoln Centre and The Kennedy Centre with the McLain Family Band as well as countless times on the ‘Opry Stage with Jim and Jesse McReynolds. He has also performed with the likes of Doc Watson, John Hartford and Alison Krauss.
Collectively Mike and Raymond have released more than 10 albums and they perform regularly at Carter and Lewis Family events in the US and at Bluegrass and Folk Festivals far and wide. Their show is truly like no other. They were recent mainstage performers at the Stan Rogers Folk Festival where they brought a crowd of thousands to their feet. The weekend before their Riverview show they will be performing at the Newfoundland and Lunenberg Festivals.

7. We, the Undersigned part ways with drummer
 (Fredericton, NB) - New Brunswick’s WE, THE UNDERSIGNED have announced that they have parted ways with their drummer Chris Gatza and are currently looking for a new drummer to join the band.
Tyler Feeney :: Vocals
Andy Stevens :: Guitar & Vocals
Jai Sadler :: Bass
"Unfortunetaly it didn't end the way we had envisioned, but as everyone in the band is well accustomed to, things change, responsibilities and expectations change, and the direction of the music changes. "
commented Bass player Jai Sadler "We're at a point in the bands career were every member needs to be fully committed to helping the band/business as a whole, so I feel like we made the right decision for both parties involved."
ABOUT WE, THE UNDERSIGNED
Boasting an array of metal/rock stylings, "We, the Undersigned" are set to dredge the stagnant waters of music's auto-tuned leaches. Bordering the thin divide between inanity and insanity, their music has been described as "fresh and prevalent" (hardtimes.com) and possessing "the chops and smarts to rock your military boots off" (the Coast)."Poised to turn some heads with their unique brand of art" (PureGrainAudio)".
Having already conquered Canada with two cross-nation tours, "We, the Undersigned" capped-off 2009 by signing with Halifax's Diminished Fifth Records and releasing their first, long anticipated full-length album, "Bleed the Constants"--a ten-song opus celebrating the union of absurdity with order, novelty with impermanence. Bestowed with a nomination for "Best Loud Recording of 2010" at this year's East Coast Music Association awards gala , WTU's latest offering has been well received by fans and campus radio, whilst simultaneously pissing-off pundits. Bands with whom We, the Undersigned are grateful to have played alongside include Protest the Hero, Fuck The Facts, Ninjaspy, What's He Building With?, Cancer Bats, the Motorleague, Iron Giant, Orchid's Curse, and The End.

 Appel
Appel D'offres
Formateurs
Ateliers en technique de scène destinés aux élèves des écoles
secondaires francophones du N.-B.
Accros de la chanson est un projet musical s’adressant aux jeunes des écoles secondaires francophones du Nouveau-Brunswick. Il vise non seulement à encourager les jeunes francophones à développer leur identité culturelle et à s’épanouir musicalement en français, mais il permet aussi à notre communauté francophone du Nouveau-Brunswick de découvrir différents styles musicaux et d’encourager la relève artistique musicale d’ici.
Durant la 7e édition du projet (2010-2011), la FJFNB offrira une formation approfondie aux comités techniques des 22 écoles secondaires francophones de la province afin de leur transmettre les connaissances nécessaires pour le bon fonctionnement de leurs tâches au sein de leur école et afin d’assurer un impact positif à long terme pour l’école. Ce projet s’intéresse à la technique de scène comme moyen d’appui aux arts dans les écoles et comme composante de la construction identitaire auprès de la jeunesse francophone et acadienne de la province. L’idée d’ajouter un volet technique à Accros de la chanson surgit naturellement puisqu’il permet surtout le développement des jeunes qui s’intéressent l’industrie de la scène francophone d’ici.
Description : La Fédération des jeunes francophones du Nouveau-Brunswick (FJFNB) est à la recherche de techniciens professionnels œuvrant dans l’industrie du spectacle afin d’offrir des ateliers de formation à des jeunes des écoles secondaires francophones dans le cadre du projet Accros de la chanson. Les ateliers de formation seront présentés dans les écoles entre les mois d’octobre 2010 et février 2011 inclusivement.
Nous recherchons des techniciens passionnés et qui désirent travailler avec des jeunes afin de partager, d’un point de vue théorique et pratique, leurs connaissances en sonorisation, éclairage et régie de plateau. En initiant les jeunes aux techniques de base, les techniciens devront encadrer les participants pour que ceux-ci en ressortent avec les connaissances requises pour le bon déroulement technique d’un spectacle.
Note : Les techniciens intéressés à offrir un atelier portant sur un ou plusieurs aspects techniques peuvent indiquer leurs préférences dans une lettre accompagnant leur C.V.
Responsabilités :
-
Préparer des ateliers destinés aux jeunes des écoles secondaires (environ 14 à 18 ans) en ayant comme outil le guide de formation disponible en septembre 2010 ;
-
Se déplacer et animer les ateliers dans les écoles assignées ;
-
Compiler, dans un court rapport, les équipements techniques disponibles dans les écoles assignées avec l’aide de la FJFNB.
Exigences : Les candidats intéressés à agir à titre de formateur doivent être reconnus comme techniciens professionnels. Les personnes retenues posséderont idéalement de l’expérience de travail auprès des jeunes.
Disponibilités : Les candidats doivent être disponibles à travailler selon l’horaire des écoles participantes.
Date limite : Le jeudi 29 juillet à 16 h 30.
Seuls les candidats retenus seront avisés

6. Call For participation Culture Days New Brunswick / Appel à participation aux organisateurs-la Fête de la culture
FRANÇAIS SUIT
CULTURE DAYS IN NEW BRUNSWICK
September 20th -26th
Culture Days is a volunteer movement and annual event open to all communities and individuals who believe in the importance of arts and culture in Canadian life.
Call for Activity Organizers
Individual artists, diverse cultural groups, organizations, municipalities, and festivals old and new, small and large are coming together in the pan-Canadian volunteer movement known as Culture Days to catalyze and inspire greater public participation in arts and culture. Culture Days is open to all communities and individuals who believe in the importance of arts and culture in Canadian life.
How the movement works: Provinces and territories across Canada are each designating a weekend in September as Culture Days in their region. Volunteer committees are working at the provincial and national levels to secure media partners and corporate champions who will help get the word out to the Canadian public. During Culture Days, thousands of activity organizers across Canada will invite the public to experience and co-create arts and culture in the very communities where they live. Will you be one of them?
This is an open call for all individuals, groups and municipalities to join the movement and offer a free interactive arts or cultural activity during Culture Days in your region. Everyone is encouraged to get involved – whether you are a professional or amateur cultural creator (i.e. artist, artisan, educator, animateur, historian, curator, architect, designer, etc), group or organization, including culturally diverse, Aboriginal, urban and rural communities.
There is no fee to register. If you have a free participatory or interactive arts or cultural activity to offer to the public during Culture Days in your region – be it new or something you already have planned...
Below are examples of typical cultural mediation activities that many cultural professionals and organizations offer already. The imagination of Culture Days activity organizers, however, should not be limited to these suggestions. Be creative, we say! Invent a new type of interaction!:
- guided tours (galleries, museums, backstage, heritage sites, in costume)
- outdoor walking tours (historical, architectural etc.)
- creation workshops
- interactive demonstrations of technique, how-to etc.
- introductory courses / workshops / classes
- « meet the artists » events
- presentation / performance with discussion period
- public rehearsals (with artists talk-back)
- interactive performances
- improv creation & activities
- games, competitions
- collective creations
FRANÇAIS
Appel à participation aux organisateurs
Des artistes ainsi que des groupes, des organismes, des municipalités et des festivals de toutes sortes s’unissent dans un vaste mouvement pancanadien bénévole appelé la Fête de la culture pour mobiliser les citoyens et les inciter à participer davantage à la vie culturelle et artistique. La Fête de la culture convie au movement tous qui croient à l’importance des arts et de la culture dans la vie quotidienne.
Comment fonctionne le mouvement : chaque province et territoire du Canada désigne une fin de semaine de septembre « Fête de la culture ». Des comités de bénévoles œuvrent aux niveaux provinciaux et national pour rallier des partenaires médias et des entreprises vouées à cette cause qui contribueront à faire connaître cet événement auprès du public canadien. Lors de la Fête de la culture, des milliers d’organisateurs partout au pays inviteront les citoyens à vivre une expérience artistique et à participer à une activité créative dans leur propre communauté. Serez-vous des nôtres ?
Voici des exemples d'activités typiques de médiation culturelle que beaucoup de professionnels de la culture et d'associations offrent déjà. Toutefois, l'imagination des organisateurs d'activités pour la Fête de la culture ne devrait pas se limiter à ces suggestions. Allez-y, faites preuve de créativité! Inventez un nouveau type d'interaction!
- visites guidées (galeries d'art, musées, coulisses d'un théâtre, sites historiques, en costume d'époque)
- visites à pied en plein air (histoire, architecture, etc.)
- ateliers de création
- démonstrations interactives de diverses techniques
- cours, ateliers ou classes d'introduction
- événements « rencontrez les artistes »
- présentation ou spectacle avec période de discussion
- répétitions publiques (comprenant des interactions avec les acteurs)
- représentations interactives
- théâtre d'improvisation — création et activités
- jeux, compétitions
- créations collectives
Nous invitons tous les citoyens, tous les groupes et toutes les municipalités à prendre part à ce mouvement en offrant une activité participative ou interactive gratuite à l’intention des résidants de leur région lors de la Fête de la culture. Tout le monde est invité à y prendre part, que vous soyez un créateur professionnel ou amateur (artiste, artisan, éducateur, animateur, historien, conservateur, architecte, designer, etc.), un groupe, une ville, une communauté rurale ou un organisme, peu importe l’origine culturelle.
Il n’y a aucuns frais d’inscription. Si vous pouvez offrir au grand public une activité culturelle ou artistique gratuite favorisant la participation et l’interaction lors de la Fête de la culture dans votre region, que ce soit un événement conçu sur mesure ou déjà prévu...

require the band being in Truro on Saturday afternoons. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED
SCHEDULE. Each entrant will choose one classic blues song from the list
(attached with schedule).
The band will open with a few songs of their own and then provide the
accompaniment for the audition. Back line will be supplied.
Please note that this is a request for a volunteer band. The ECBS is not
receiving any money for this. If you're an up and coming band, this could be
very good exposure for you.
If you are interested, please contact Kim by email. kimobrien@eastlink.ca
