Rock ‘n’ roll is often hard to define, or even to find, in these fractured musical times. But to paraphrase an old saying, you know it when you hear it. And you always hear it with the Wallflowers.

For the past 30 years, the Jakob Dylan-led act has stood as one of rock’s most dynamic and purposeful bands – a unit dedicated to and continually honing a sound that meshes timeless songwriting and storytelling with a hard-hitting and decidedly modern musical attack. That signature style has been present through the decades, baked into the grooves of smash hits like 1996’s Bringing Down the Horse, featuring the chart topping song, One Headlight, as well as more his more recent rock albums and explorations.

death's dynamic shroud have always been curious about what we can’t see. Tech Honors, James Webster, and Keith Rankin make music that explores that sense of wonderment—emotional, experimental electronic work that fills gaps between the known and unknown. Full of richly textured layers of sound, songs like new single “Judgment Bolt” draw unsuspecting listeners into a place that’s simultaneously murky and neon, somber and playful. You feel a sense of new adventure, with a curious pang of déjà vu. The group was initially drawn to the vaporwave world, producing records like 2015’s I’ll Try Living Like This and 2017’s Heavy Black Heart, which took familiar sounds—like K-pop, among others—to their maximalist limits. Since then they’ve experimented with making music in different formations of the group and collected the results in a project called NUWRLD Mixtape Club, which included the acclaimed 2021 release Faith In Persona. Their upcoming album—their first in years to include all three members—finds them further exploring unknown realms, focusing on original composition, songwriting, and vocals. And, of course, they’ve utilized some well-placed samples to help drive the album’s concept: an exploration of “love as a social construct, or as the fabric of the universe, or as not existing.” Once again, death’s dynamic shroud work to chart what we can’t see but—more than ever—can feel. To Webster, this era boils down to one salient fact: “There’s more of us in this than ever before.

Across the last 15 years, Ryan Gustafson of The Dead Tongues has emerged as one of modern folk’s most distinct voices. As idiosyncratic and spectral as the songs have sometimes been, Gustafson has always tied his visions and verses to the kinds of hooks you tuck away like talismans, pulled out in case of emergency. Dust, Unsung Passage, Desert: The Dead Tongues’ albums remain some of the more compelling and curious works in their field on this side of a century. The latest edition to The Dead Tongues’ catalog, the song-centric and magnetic 'Body of Light' and the discursive and wonderfully elliptical 'I Am a Cloud', is 16 complete tunes split across interweaving and disparate albums.

Lou Hazel was born in the town of Olean, New York. He skirted the compulsive hunting and fishing tradition held close to his father’s heart - instead cultivating a sensitivity more suited to artists and vagabonds. His travels brought him across the country, and eventually through debilitating depression, before coming to rest with a sense of personal peace and positivity in Durham, NC.

With two songwriters, six albums, and more than a thousand shows under their belt, The Coffis Brothers have earned their reputation as modern-day torchbearers of all-American rock & roll. It's a sound caught halfway between amplified Americana, acoustic folk, roadhouse R&B, and electrifying roots music, crafted by a pair of California-born siblings who've been sharing the stage since childhood, and the five piece band filled out by their childhood friend, Kyle Poppen on lead guitar, and the rhythm section of Aidan Collins (bass), and Cory Graves (drums).

That sound reaches a new peak with Kaw-fis Bruth-urs. The band's third collaboration with Bay Area legend (and longtime Mother Hips frontman) Tim Bluhm, who serves as the album's producer, Kaw-fis Bruth-urs finds Jamie and Kellen Coffis letting their guard down, enjoying the creative ride as much as the destination itself. For every signature-sounding song like "Cut Right Through" — a heartland rock anthem built for highway drives and long horizons, as sunny as the band's Golden State homeland and as hook-driven as a Tom Petty classic — there's another track that stretches the band's sound into new territory. The result is The Coffis Brothers' widest-ranging album yet, running the gamut from bluesy, blue-eyed soul ("Face the Music") to jangling, harmony-heavy power pop (“Do You Want To").

"This is what we do, and we're giving ourselves license to evolve and get better at it, too" says Jamie, who was raised in the Santa Cruz Mountains of northern California alongside his mother — a children's musician — and his younger brother. Decades after Jamie and Kellen made their stage debut alongside their mom, singing three-part blood harmonies at a young age, their musical bond has only grown stronger, sharpened by hundreds of live shows as much as their shared DNA. "It's the natural evolution of us performing together and spending so much of our lives together," Kellen adds. "We didn't set out to make anything in one particular direction — we just wanted to make a batch of really great songs."

The Trinity Alps Chamber Music Festival kicks off its 15th season with a pair of piano recitals by festival director Ian Scarfe.

The two concerts will be held on Friday, February 14th at 8:00pm at the Arcata Playhouse in Arcata, and Saturday, February 15th at 7:00pm at the Trinity Alps Performing Arts Center in Weaverville.

The concerts will feature a program of classical masterpieces along with the Classical works will include elegant Preludes and Fugues by J. S. Bach, a collection of the nostalgic and expressive Intermezzos by Johannes Brahms, and Edvard Grieg's spritely and virtuosic “Holberg Suite”.

Scarfe will also perform his own piano transcription called “Dracula Suite”, an arrangement of music by Philip Glass composed for the original 1931 film starring Bela Lugosi as Count Dracula.

“This is a high-risk, high-reward program,” says Scarfe, “I first played Philip Glass' Dracula score in the original version for string quartet and two pianos. I'm not sure what possessed me to arrange it for solo piano - perhaps the vampire's supernatural charm has affected my mind as well! My arrangement captures the loneliness and solitude of the undead Count Dracula's existence, the hypnotic charm that allows him to seduce his victims, and the urgency that builds toward the end of the film as the heroes confront Dracula.”

All concerts are open to the public, and instead of set ticket prices, music lovers are invited to contribute on a sliding scale, “pay what you can” basis.
