SUMMARY:Moon Hooch
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, September 7th at 9p\, join Buffalo Iron Works for Moon Hooch with special guest Jaw Gems. Doors will open at 8p and admission is $20-$25. \n\n\n\n\n\nIf any band is a poster child for turning the power of positive thoughts and intention into reality\, it’s the explosive horn-and-percussion trio Moon Hooch. In just a few short years\, the group—Wilbur\, fellow horn player Wenzl McGowen\, and drummer James Muschler—has gone from playing on New York City subway platforms to touring with the likes of Beats Antique\, They Might Be Giants\, and Lotus\, as well as selling out their own headline shows in major venues around the country. On ‘Red Sky\,’ their third and most adventurous album to date\, the band uses everything they’ve learned from their whirlwind journey to push their sound to new heights\, bringing together the raw\, transcendent energy of their live performances and the sleek sophistication of their studio work into a singular\, intoxicating brew that blends elements of virtuosic jazz\, groovy funk\, and pulse-pounding electronic dance music. \nThough the band is heavily inspired by electronic music\, they made a conscious effort to use as little in the way of “studio tricks” as possible on ‘Red Sky\,’ aiming instead to capture the sound of their live show\, which has evolved significantly from their days underground.

SUMMARY:Faculty Fellows Talks Featuring: Michael Rembis
DESCRIPTION:“‘A Fact Was No Less a Fact Because It Was Told By a Crazy Person’: Popular Responses to 19th Century Asylums.” \nJoin us at Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center for the ninth year of Faculty Fellows talks on Friday\, September 13th at 4p! This lecture series brings current UB humanities research out into the community – with complimentary wine and hors d’oeuvres. The talk is free and open-to-the-public. \nMichael Rembis contemplates the role of mad people and their allies in protesting asylums in the 19th century United States. Historians and other scholars have been writing about the “patient turn” since the 1980s. Yet historians of madness and psychiatry remain reluctant to engage with much of the evidence left behind by mad people and their allies. Instead\, they dismiss it as unrepresentative and unreliable. This presentation\, and the larger project upon which it is based\, uses the experiences and the writings of mad people and their allies to tell new stories and to rethink old ones. \nMichael is the Director of the Center for Disability Studies and an Associate Professor in the Department of History. He has authored or edited many books\, articles\, and book chapters\, including most recently\, The Oxford Handbook of Disability History co-edited with Catherine Kudlick and Kim Nielsen. He is currently working on a book entitled\, ‘A Secret Worth Knowing’: Living Mad Lives in the Shadow of the Asylum. For more information\, click here.

SUMMARY:The Crystal Method
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, September 14th at 8p\, join Buffalo Iron Works for The Crystal Method. Admission is $20-$25 for this 18+ show. Throughout the past two decades\, the musical landscape has continually merged\, morphed\, and matrixed\, fractured in countless directions while intersecting at the most unexpected points.

THE CRYSTAL METHOD followed a similar trajectory since their formation in 1993. The Grammy Award®-nominated\, platinum-certified trailblazing duo—Ken Jordan and Scott Kirkland—set the stage for the genre-mashing electronic sounds that fuel the current zeitgeist. \nNow\, their exclusive\, limited edition 20th Anniversary Signature Box Set houses this sonic story. Including vinyl of their five full-length studio albums—Vegas [1997]\, Tweekend [2001]\, Legion of Boom [2004]\, Divided By Night [2009]\, and The Crystal Method [2014]—and an unreleased Rarities collection\, it provides a comprehensive glance at their legacy thus far. Most importantly\, the process nodded to the group’s diehard audience from the beginning. For more information and to purchase tickets\, click here. \n

SUMMARY:Bad Suns
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, September 18th\, join the Town Ballroom for Bad Suns. Doors will open at 7p. Southern California rock band Bad Suns formed in 2012 and in the short time since inception\, have managed to be musically beyond their years. Made up of Christo Bowman (vocals)\, Gavin Bennett (bass)\, Miles Morris (drums) and Ray Libby (guitar) the four piece ranges from ages 19-22 yet has a sound reminiscent of rock stalwarts from generations past. Influences are apparent on the band’s upcoming EP Transpose\, where angst-ridden riffs and ethereal yet charismatic vocals pay tribute to post-punk legends of the early 80’s.

SUMMARY:Uncrowned Queens Institute Announces ‘Saving the Past to Enrich the Future’ Event

The celebration will also feature a special recognition of the Women’s Pavilion Pan Am 2001 leaders who will be represented by former Erie County Legislator Joan Bozer.  The Uncrowned Queens Institute was one of the numerous projects launched by the Women’s Pavilion to commemorate the centennial of the 1901 Pan American Exposition.

SUMMARY:Peter Mulvey with special guest Diana Chittester
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, September 26th at 8p\, join the 9th Ward at Babeville for Peter Mulvey with special guest Diana Chittester. Doors will open at 7p and tickets are $15-$17. For more information or to purchase tickets\, click here. \n Peter Mulvey has been a songwriter\, road-dog\, raconteur and almost-poet since before he can remember. Raised working-class Catholic on the Northwest side of Milwaukee\, he took a semester in Ireland\, and immediately began cutting classes to busk on Grafton Street in Dublin and hitchhike through the country\, finding whatever gigs he could. Back stateside\, he spent a couple years gigging in the Midwest before lighting out for Boston\, where he returned to busking (this time in the subway) and coffeehouses. Small shows led to larger shows\, which eventually led to regional and then national and international touring. The wheels have not stopped since.\n \n\n\nDiana Chittester stands on stage with an arsenal of acoustic guitars. Whether she’s solo or with her 4-piece band\, the show is always brought to life with signature percussive multi-part playing\, mimicking a full band on a solo acoustic guitar without the use of gadgets or a looper. She blends her intricate finger-picking guitar style with intelligent and articulate lyrics. The personal stories and vulnerability she shares on stage resonate with audiences as she invites them along on her journey. \n

Since 2015\, riverrun-NA\, Inc. has provided several liberal arts fellowships to outstanding undergraduate and graduate students for a summer long\, in-depth research project focusing on a specific collection of the Rare Books & Special Collections of the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library.  Each student recipient culminates their research with a public presentation and paper on the chosen collection.  This year’s fellow Sally Schaefer holds a Master of Arts degree in Ethnomusicology and is currently working toward her Master of Science degree in Library and Information Science at the University at Buffalo. \nPast riverrun-NA scholarship projects may be viewed online at https://www.buffalolib.org/content/grosvenor/rare-book-room/collection-studies. For more information\, call the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library System at 716-858-8900 or visit www.BuffaloLib.org.
