SUMMARY:Black Joy Silent Disco
DESCRIPTION:Expressing joy in the face of oppression is its own form of resistance. \nJoin us for the Black Joy Silent Disco\, featuring three Louisville DJs to raise money in support of (Un)Known Project! \nWhat’s a Silent Disco?\nWhy go to a party with ONE DJ set when you could have THREE DJ sets going at once? Each DJ gets their own channel and each pair of headphones has access to each channel: The GREEN Channel\, the RED Channel\, or the BLUE Channel. Your headset will glow the color of whichever channel you’re on. You can tell what everyone else is listening to based on the color of their headset. And not only can YOU control which channel you’re listening to\, but you can also control the volume! \nWant to talk with your friends? Easy! Just take your headphones off. \nDo I have to be Black to attend?\nNO! If you support the work of (Un)Known Project\, which honors the names and stories of enslaved Black people in America and the global African diaspora\, we want you to dance with us! \nWhat do I wear?\nWhatever brings you joy! Just make sure you can dance in it! \nWill there be food and drink available?\nFood and beverages will be available for purchase at TEN20 Craft Brewery. \n  \n***Description from website

SUMMARY:Sonic Sundays - with Wayne Graham and Ellie Ruth Band @ Copper & Kings
DESCRIPTION:Copper & Kings Free Courtyard Concert Series \n—featuring Wayne Graham and Ellie Ruth Band \nSecond Sunday of the Month from June – October \nDoors Open at 3pm!\nOpen to All!\nFood and Beverage Options Available\n—————————————————————- \nWayne Graham Bio\nWayne was a renaissance man. Curiosity and good hand-eye coordination are a deadly combination. He was an electrician\, a locksmith\, a mechanic\, a coal miner\, a guitarist\, and a singer\, but the roles that took the highest priority in his life were husband\, father\, brother\, and son. He approached life with a laughable optimism and proved over time he was right. He made sure to be my earliest memory and I have consulted him\, wherever he is\, with every major decision in my life. Over the years\, I’ve met many strangers who knew him. Their tall tale is the same as those I’ve heard before. He was a legendary man with more soul than his body could hold. \nGraham was the first one of his brothers to own a car. He was able to buy it because he started working when he was very young. When his younger brother graduated from high school\, he drove him to college. He left his car with him and headed home to Pine Creek.\nHe married my grandmother and bought a small shack on Pine Creek. They moved in in February\, a logging trail covered in snow\, to a shack with quarter inch slits between the slats.\nHe slowly bought that mountain\, acre by acre\, building more rooms on his house for his growing family. He was the neighborhood farmer\, old regular Baptist\, democrat\, World War II vet\, coal miner\, romance novel patron\, Kentucky Wildcats fan. His image flashes in my periphery at least once a day\, reminding me his constant refrain when he and Mamaw kept me in my early years\, “This boy is gonna make me president.” \n—————————————————————-\nEllie Ruth is an award winning violinist/violist/singer songwriter from Louisville KY.

SUMMARY:Good Times Summer Concert Series - Featuring 'The Les Masters Band'
DESCRIPTION:The Town of Clarksville is proud to present the new “Good Times” Summer Concert Series. \nSponsored in part by the Cornerstone Group\, the concert series will begin in May 2024 and run through August 2024. A large community concert will be held each month on the Central Green outside of the Bolt+Tie complex\, located at 1400 Main Street\, Clarksville\, Indiana. The events will feature live music\, food trucks\, and a beer garden by Ten20 Craft Brewery. \nFor more information or if you have questions about this event\, contact us at info@townofclarksville.com. \nA complete list of events is listed below. \nThe Les Master’s Band – 8:00pm-11:00pm\nThey say everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the planets align\, and sometimes seemingly disparate elements can come together and form something far greater than the sum of its parts. A pair of random bookings and a chance phone call was all it took to bring the Les Masters Band–arguably the most entertaining live band in the region– to the masses. A country singer\, a rock band\, an energetic and engaging live show\, and a song list that virtually brings the party…ladies and gentlemen…the Les Masters Band. \nThe Swerve – 6:00pm-7:30pm\nThe Swerve\, out of Louisville\, KY\, is a high energy band serving a great mix of country and rock. \n  \n**Description from website
