Open House Tour at the New Puppetry Institute!
Important News from The Puppetry Institute Like many arts organizations, weβve been navigating the realities of a challenging economic landscape. Running two separate locations has become increasingly difficult, and after a great deal of thought weβve made the decision to move from our previous location and reopen our art school inside our MIDDLEOF space, unit D-06 in the Capitola Mall. While change is never easy, we truly believe this move creates something exciting. By bringing everything together under one roof, weβll be able to continue offering our incredible workshops while also having enough space for our interactive puppetry installations, art gallery, and live performances. It allows us to create a home where imagination, education, and immersive art can exist side by side. These are difficult times for the arts, and organizations like ours are constantly finding creative ways to keep the magic alive. We believe this move will help ensure that we can continue sharing our unique brand of creativity, storytelling, and wonder with the Central Coast community weβre proud to call home for the past 10 years Thank you to everyone who has supported us through every chapter of this journey. Your encouragement, attendance, donations, and belief in what we do continue to make all of this possible. Weβre excited for this next adventure and canβt wait to welcome you into this new chapter of The Puppetry Institute. Learn more about who we are and what we do please visit us Sept 4th from 4-7pm for a tour of our classroom and our magical 5000 sq ft

The band built a nice following in the area until they split after five years. And finally Clinton Fearon formed his own band in the mid 90s with local musicians in Seattle: Clinton Fearon and The Boogie Brown Band.

Stage Presence for Adult Dancers: From Technique to Connection
Have you ever learned choreography but felt unsure how to make it come alive in performance? This course with Mara Frey at Motion Pacific is designed for beginning adult dancers who want to feel more confident, expressive, and comfortable being seen. Stage presence isn't about being the most technically advanced dancer in the room, it's about connecting with the music, communicating intention, and engaging your audience. Through guided exercises, movement exploration, and performance practice, you'll learn how posture, focus, emotional expression, and audience connection can transform the way you dance. In a supportive and encouraging environment, students will explore: building confidence and reducing performance anxiety, using focus, posture, and energy to command attention, expressing emotion and intention through movement, connecting authentically with an audience, recovering gracefully from mistakes during performance, and developing a personal performance style. This class is open to dancers of all styles and requires no prior performance experience. Whether you dream of performing on stage, social dancing with more confidence, or simply bringing greater expression to your movement, you'll leave with practical tools to help your dancing feel more engaging, intentional, and alive. By the end of the course, participants will perform a short dance phrase and gain skills they can apply to any dance style or performance opportunity. What to bring: comfortable dance attire, water, and a willingness to step outside your comfort zone in a supportive setting.

A creation of perfect balance. As time passed, evil spread over the land like a plague, slowly consuming everything in its path. In the final moments before light was lost to the shadow for all time, a weapon of infinite power was created, the Magic Sword. Thus, restoring balance to the universe. The genesis of things are often small. As the single seed grows to a mighty oak, so too did the path of the Keeper begin as a single choice in an age long past. Once a humble king, he was manipulated into unleashing the Dark One. All of reality was torn asunder as the Lord of Shadow was released from their ancient prison, having been bound by the power of the the Magic Sword. From that day forth, the King was cursed to be the eternal Keeper of this powerful key. He has been compelled for millennia to find the Chosen One who will unleash the true power of the weapon and won't rest until the grand design is complete with the Darkness bound once again. The Keeper of the Magic Sword searches endlessly for the Chosen One. This prophesied being contains the ability to wield the power of the Magic Sword and seal the prison that holds Dark One for all eternity. Until the chosen one is revealed, search continues in this realm and many others throughout all of time and space. In what form will the Magic Sword manifest? Who is the Chosen One? Answers will reveal themselves as the need arises. A tale of high adventure as old as time itself. SKYLIMIT Hailing from Boise, Idaho, Skylimi

I spent that year living in a barn with the squirrels and the birds, on my own most of the time, and I discovered so much about music and how to create it, says the Tennessee-bred singer/songwriter. Instead of going into a studio with a producer for two weeks, I just waited for the record to build itself. Id get up and go outside, see a butterfly and connect that with some impulsive thought Id had three months ago, and suddenly a song Id been working on would make sense. Thats how the whole album came to be.The follow-up to 2018s critically acclaimed Wide Awake, If I Were a Butterfly finds Baxter co-producing alongside Tim OSullivan (Grace Potter, The Head and the Heart) and Kai Welch (Molly Tuttle, Sierra Hull), slowly piecing together the albums patchwork of lush psychedelia and Beatlesesque pop. In addition to working at Thunder Sound (the Kentucky studio he called home for months on end), Baxter recorded in California, Texas, Tennessee, and Washington, enlisting a remarkable lineup of musicians: Shakey Graves, Lennon Stella, several members of Cage the Elephant, Zac Cockrell of Alabama Shakes, Morning Teleportations Travis Goodwin, and legendary Motown drummer Miss Bobbye Hall, among many others. In an especially meaningful turn, two of the albums tracks feature the elegant pedal

Shoveling their own path, Diggin Dirt has seen sustained growth over the past few years, with multiple national tours and festival stops at Jam Cruise, High Sierra, Hulaween, Same Same but Different, Live Oak, Cascade Equinox, Joshua Tree Music Festival and many more. Per a 2024 Jam Cruise writer, This was the soul music I grew up with in the 60s and 70s, but I confess I wasnt expecting [Diggin Dirt] to be throwing it down this hard. This group is impossibly tight, and Zach Alder might be the best soul shouter Ive ever heard, and Ive heard a few. Their infectious sound is fueled by blazing horns, searing guitars and a relentlessly driving rhythm section, and tying it all together is the bands frontman who launches the ensemble into rarefied air with his pipes, charisma and natural-born soul. With flashes of James Brown or Sly and the Family Stone, Otis Redding or Tower of Power, the bands sound is both familiar and yet refreshingly original, layering psychedelic rock, Motown soul, afrobeat and even reggae atop a thick foundation of late-60s inspired funk.

Dungeons and Dragons for Adults
Come join the magical world of D&D storytelling, where you can be a bard, a wizard, or a barbarian for a few hours and let your creativity run free. Solve weird and wonderful problems with spells, cunning, or daggers and make some new friends in the process. Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned player you will be welcomed every 1st Sunday for an afternoon of collaborative storytelling at the Downtown Branch. Friendly game masters will be ready with dice, characters, and the start of a story; all we need is your creativity and enthusiasm. No prior experience is necessary. This program is for adults 18+. This program also happens on 3rd Saturdays at the Capitola Branch from 12-5. What is Dungeons and Dragons? D&D is one of many tabletop roleplaying games, in which players create and control fictional characters within a shared imaginary world. A Game Master guides the story and sets the scene, while the players make decisions for their characters, rolling dice to determine outcomes. TTRPGs encourage creativity, teamwork, and storytelling as players collaborate to overcome challenges and complete quests. Modern D&D has veered away from the combat-heavy game it used to be. While it's still possible to spend hours attacking monsters and finding loot, many groups now tell stories of mystery, intrigue, horror, or whimsy. Who are the game masters? This event is organized by Jeltje van Baren ( [email protected] ), who learned to play a few years ago and has been creating games for new players ever since. She will be assisted by a rotating group of diverse GMs from the local TTRPG community, all of whom are used to patiently explaining the rules and keeping the game fun for everyone.

The group who is made up of Nick Tozzo (drummer and percussionist), Nicolas Sanchez (bassist), and Mauro Lopez (guitarist) craft a genre-blending sound that drifts between the lush jungles of Colombia, the palm-lined streets of 1960s coastal Mexico, and the dusty cantinas of West Texas.Sanchezs Colombian roots, growing up listening to his parents beloved salsa and cumbia; Lopezs parents Mexican and American discography, which spanned from traditional Tejano to improvised jazz; and Tozzos love for jazz and salsa music, the latter stemming from his college years, leading him to study and live in Colombia to experience music greats first-handedly. All of this, paired with their undeniable chemistry and meshed with their now hometown Austins innovative creative sounds has led them to create the unique sonic movement that is The Animeros, a name inspired by Colombian shamans who would usher lost souls to their peace.Their journey took an unexpected turn when their music reached the ears of Dan Auerbach, the Grammy Award winning producer, songwriter, and frontman of The Black Keys. Auerbach first heard them by chance, music floating from an open hotel window that stopped him in his tracks. Captivated, he made a note to track them down, and within a yea

From the moment he heard Sugar Hill Gangs 1980 classic Rappers Delight, the Bay Area Hip Hop luminary knew hed found his calling. Twenty-five years later, LB has obliterated the stereotypes of what an MC is supposed to look like and captured the hearts of countless fans who gravitate to his distinctive voice. Hes now the only Asian-American MC to release 10 studios albums and the first to play major music festivals like Coachella and Lollapalooza. From his Quannum Recordings debut with Latyrx,1997s The Album, to 2003s seminal solo album Later That Day, hes consistently pushed the boundaries of his craft. His newest project, Quite A Life, is like the exclamation point on his milestone year. Ten albums is a lot for any artist, let alone an indie artist who colored outside the lines, so to speak, LB says. Im just appreciative there was always somehow a path for me, no matter how impossible it seemed either on paper or in practice. As the first Asian-American to release a greatest hits compilation, hes pumped out multiple smash singles across four official studio albums. From Stop Complaining to Callin Out and I Like It, I Love It and I Changed My Mind, his material has always retained a musically eclectic feel.
Join us for an exclusive Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet wine tasting salon featuring 15+ producers, light bites by Oak and Rye and a silent auction Nestled in the hills above Los Gatos at exclusive new venue Lexington Hills Estate, wineries will each pour a current release alongside a rare, older vintage, showcasing the ageability of Santa Cruz Mountain Cabernet and allowing guests to experience a side-by-side comparison. Premier Cruz isa vibrant, annual tasting that celebrates Cabernet Sauvignon produced in the Santa Cruz Mountains American Viticulture Area (AVA).It's an opportunity to meet an array of Cabernet producers while enjoying world-class wines, gourmet bites and a silent wine auction. Since the late 1800's the Santa Cruz Mountains has been recognized as a premium Cabernet-producing region, when local winegrowers began to win acclaim in national and international competitions. At the Judgment of Paris in 1976, a blind tasting proved that California wines could equal and even surpass the great French wines. One of the twelve wines chosen to represent California was Ridge Vineyards' Monte Bello Cabernet from the Santa Cruz Mountains. The tasting was repeated in 2006 with the same vintages and the Ridge Monte Bello was judged the top-rated wine. The Santa Cruz Mountains is a special place for growing Mountain Cabernet. The region offers an array of individual microclimates, hot days and cool nights, marine influences, high elevations, distinctive soils and fruit from 80 acres or less, all contribute to the distinct flavor profiles of a mountain Cabernet unlike those of Napa or Sonoma.

Blending the gritty, bluesy, folksy, country sounds of his home with the experience of traversing the country and immersing himself in the broad array of cultures across the American landscape, Andrews music creates real connection between former strangers through song. As he puts it, When a song written by a stranger heals you, even in the smallest way, thats a connection beyond entertainment.Andrew has shared stages with Guster, Blind Pilot, and Amos Lee, among others, and has performed at major festivals across the US including New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, Milwaukee Summerfest, Bonnaroo, and Americanafest. His music has been featured in Rolling Stone Magazine, Jam In The Van, Meat Church, as well as in Glide Magazine, No Depression, and American Songwriter.

On Parlor Greens debut LP In Green We Dream, they announced their existence boldly to the welcoming arms of funky instrumental fans around the world. Now, two years later, theyre back to up the ante. Three true masters of their respective crafts: Tim Carman (formerly of GA-20) on drums, Jimmy James (True Loves) on guitar, and Adam Scone (Scone Cash Players, The Sugarman 3) on organ. Seasoned and soulful pros coming together to make infectiously funky instrumental jams.Parlor Greens are truly in top form: tour tight and more confident than ever in who they are and where theyre going. The albums opener, Eat Your Greens, kicks the doors off with a Charles Earland-inspired four on the floor beat, with Jimmy and Scone driving the tune down the tracks like an overloaded freight train, it simply cannot be stopped. On Red Dog, the group channels the absolute heaviest shade of early Rs crunchy guitar paving the way for both he and Scone to take scorching solos. Lions Mane shows a slightly more sophisticated side of the trio, with nods to one of Scones organ mentors, the incomparable Dr. Lonnie Smith. Not to be outdone by his bandmates, Tim Carman shows off why he plays the best shuffle this side of the Mississippi on Letter To Brother Ben, a gospel-tinged shuffler.

The band (Rick Miller guitar and vocals, Mary Huff bass and vocals, Dave Hartman drums) has been playing together for over 30 years. Their musical journey has taken them from all-night North Carolina house parties to late night TV talk shows (Conan OBrien, The Tonight Show), from performing at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan to rockin out for the inmates at North Carolina correctional facilities. Theyve shared a stage with many musical luminaries including Link Wray, Loretta Lynn, Hasil Adkins and Patti Smith. Their music has been featured in movies and TV, parodied by Weird Al, and used to sell everything from diamonds to pork sausage. In 2014 the band was honored by the Southern Folklife Collection at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill with an exhibition featuring their music and cultural contributions. Their legendary live shows are a testament to the therapeutic powers of foot-stomping, butt-shaking rock and roll and what Rolling Stone dubbed a hell raising rock and roll party.At Home with Southern Culture on the Skids is the latest full length album from the band and was released in March of 2021. It was recorded during the stay at home period of the pandemic when the band was at home and not touring. The album consists of 11 tracks recorded and mixed in Rick Millers living room with some additional tracks recorded at his studio, The Kudzu Ranch.The first radio single off the album is Run Baby Runa rocking number with deep garage

Stepping outside the United States was less a retreat than a shift in perspective, creating distance to recognize a new sound that had been slowly taking shape among them. im DADA quickly revealed its character: more propulsive, more candid, and their most structurally deliberate work to date.Working alongside experimental duo Lorelle Meets the Obsolete at their studio El Derrumbe the sessions folded community into the album, though its emotional core had already formed over months of pre-production. Half of Holy Wave is Mexican, with roots in the El Paso border region, so recording in Ensenada felt intuitive and relaxed. Joo Joo Ashworth, mixing engineer and longtime friend, also provided a pivotal presence helping crystallize the albums rhythmic language and subtly expanding the bands sound. The songs began reflecting conversations about fatherhood and partnership, breakups and estrangement, the queasy acceleration of AI, and what it means to remain present and principled while the world lurches unpredictably forward

Fans around the world can be found singing the chorus of the Roger Clyne-penned fan favorite Mekong and toasting their glasses in unison to celebrate life through rock-n-roll. But the inspiration for the song dates back to the time Roger went to Taipei, Taiwan, as a college student to teach English during the day and busk with his guitar at night for money.Today, as Clyne has just released his 11th studio album, he continues to transform his life experiences, inspirations, observations and his own muses into timeless music. And whether hes wearing his Converse high tops, boots or sandals, Clynes blend of punk rock, americana, indie-pop and mariachi influences have made him, drummer PH Naffah, guitarist Jim Dalton and bassist Nick Scropos collectively known as Roger Clyne one of Americas best live rock-n-roll bands.Starting with the seminal Tempe quartet, The Refreshments, Clyne and Naffah put the fun in rock & roll during the 90s grunge era with a sense of humor. They also started what would become a trademark sound on all future albums by adding mariachi horns, something Clyne was influenced by while in college studying Cultural Anthropology with an ethnography study of mariachis during a three-month Spanish-immersion stay with a local family in Ensenada, Mexico.

Spencer first made his name in the mid-80s with combative noise merchants Pussy Galore (best heard on the 1987 album Right Now!), whose raw, purposefully off-putting style and deliberately offensive lyrics made them one of the most polarizing bands of the day. After Pussy Galores breakup, Spencer launched the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, whose frantic but wildly energetic style mixed elements of punk, Rs approach was easily recognizable, he was able to fuse his ideas with a variety of collaborators, including the raw Rs Spencer Sings the Hits, and then by launching a new band, Jon Spencer s Spencer Gets It Lit. Spencer teamed up with the bassist and drummer of the Bobby Lees for his third solo effort, 2024s Sick of Being Sick!

Leaving six studio albums in their path, they have been reinventing their music with every record. Spit from the heart of Americas Rust Belt, arising from a night of flophouse violence. Drifting across the states, they cemented their sound in Portland, OR and later in Los Angeles, CA, where they lived in abandoned buildings, squatter camps, storage units and shoebox apartments. In 2007, they left everything behind and spent the next four years living out of whatever vehicle would get them to the next town. Building upon their original sound of twanged-out, punk rock gutterbilly (Life of Sin 2004 and Gutterbillyblues 2007), they began picking up stray musicians along the way and adding to their sound; washboard, accordion, mandolin and banjo (Ghost of th Rails 2009 and 7 Devils 2011) creating a sound referred to as hobocore, gypsy-punk or americana-punk, while never being stuck in any one sound. Enter 2018 and The Goddamn Gallows have reinvented themselves once again with The Trial. From rockabilly, psychobilly and punk rock, to bluegrass and metal, The Trial infuses disparate sounds into a new strange recipe of seamless genre bending profundities. Chock full of impromptu antics of the shocking variety and hauntingly eclectic instrumentation, The Goddamn Gallows have made legions of fans with their legendary, live shows.
