Vișinel Bălan is Romania's most prominent activist on behalf of institutionalized youth and one of the most significant voices on child welfare reform. He was abandoned at 2 months old, raised in state institutions, and aged out of the system at 18 with no resources or preparation for independent life. This lived experience has become the foundation of his life's work. He holds a doctorate in sociology from the University of Bucharest, where his dissertation (a rigorous mixed-methods study of 627 institutionalized youth and 70 care leavers across Romania) documented the neglect, abuse, and systematic failure of the child protection system to prepare young people for independent life. He is the founder of multiple national advocacy organizations for institutionalized children and care leavers, the co-founder of EDFORSO, the first therapeutic center in Romania dedicated to abandoned children, and the author of 2 books on post-institutional life. In June 2025, he was appointed Director General of DGASPC Giurgiu, where he directs a staff of 700 and is leading significant institutional reform. His visit offers our students and faculty direct engagement with a practitioner-scholar whose work combines lived experience, rigorous research, and leadership.

Bombargo is a Canadian based international touring band that drops a vibrant splash of soul over their distinctive ‘vintage-pop’ sound. Well known for bringing unrivaled energy to the stage with sing-along anthems, double-brother harmonies, and a powerful message that combined make for one of the most captivating live shows ever! Frontman Nathan Thoen’s passionate conviction and ‘Jagger-like’ dance moves even impressed billionaire and music industry icon Sir Richard Branson, quoting “I haven’t seen this type of energy since The Rolling Stones!” – and he would know, having personally signed The Rolling Stones to Virgin Records.

The band began with lead singer Nathan Thoen and guitarist Spencer Chilliak after the two spontaneously met and drove 16 hours to attend Sasquatch Music Festival where they became inspired to start a band. The duo wrote their debut single “Let It Grow” during their very first writing session and as part of Bombargo’s debut EP Back on Main which would go on to be included in “The Top 10 Best Saskatchewan Albums of 2015” by SaskMusic. This further inspired them to continue writing, touring, and release their first full-length album titled We Are Bombargo. The group has since evolved into a 5-piece touring band adding Nathan’s brother Anthony Thoen on guitar, additional brothers Matt and Sammy Folkersen on keys and bass respectively, and Niall Cubbon on drums.

Bombargo went on to receive massive acclaim when pop star icon Taylor Swift added their 2018 single “Mr. No Good” to her Spotify Playlist titled “Songs Taylor Loves” alongside mega artists including Ed Sheeran, Camilla Cabello, and Kendrick Lamar. Being the only unsigned band on this star-studded playlist saw Bombargo featured on CBC’s the Q, NME, Exclaim, Fashion, Noisey, People, and Billboard. This success was followed up by the release of their most successful single to date – “Oxygen” which pushed Bombargo into the Canadian Hot AC Top 40 Charts for the first time in the fall of 2019. The band also made its US touring debut in late 2019 with their 33 date “North American Dream Tour” which kicked off with Bombargo playing the sold-out Roughriders Labour Day Classic Half-Time Show to over 33,000 people. The band’s highly anticipated US debut at Hotel Cafe in Hollywood, CA gained heavy press coverage including a raving article in Billboard Magazine.

Bombargo has opened for legendary acts including John Butler Trio, Alan Stone, RIPE, Joel Plaskett and most recently performed on the Okeechobee festival main stage in Florida with over 40,000 in attendance. They have surpassed 10 million streams on streaming services, received over 1million+ views on YouTube, and were nominated for the Saskatchewan Music Awards “Pop/Rock Artists of the Year” in both 2018 and 2019. In August of 2020 the band landed a ‘most excellent’ cameo in the hollywood blockbuster Bill & Ted 3: Face The Music. There’s no doubt Bombargo will continue spreading The Goodtime Guarantee™ long into the future.

Known worldwide as the bassist for Aquarium Rescue Unit and the Allman Brothers Band, and as a founding member of Dead & Company, Oteil Burbridge is celebrated and loved by millions of fans for his virtuosity, creativity, and powerful live performances.

Performing with Oteil for the first time is Vermont-based trio LaMP, featuring Russ Lawton, Ray Paczkowski, and Scott Metzger. Drawing on decades of experience with artists including Trey Anastasio Band, Joe Russo’s Almost Dead (JRAD), and many of the most respected names in improvisational music, LaMP has earned a reputation for deep grooves, fearless exploration, and exceptional musicianship, becoming one of the most exciting acts on today’s live music scene.

Together, Oteil and LaMP promise to create a rare musical partnership, blending world-class artistry with spontaneous collaboration all to benefit Make-A-Wish’s mission to bring hope, strength and joy to children with critical illnesses in Vermont, Massachusetts, New York and Rhode Island.

Two-time Grammy Award–winning bassist Oteil Burbridge has spent more than three decades touring and recording at the highest level of modern music. Most recently known for his role in Dead & Company, helping carry forward the Grateful Dead legacy for a new generation. Oteil tours extensively with Oteil & Friends, and is also a member of The Toy Factory Project, honoring the legacy of guitarist Toy Caldwell.

A founding member of the early ’90s Southern jazz-fusion group Col. Bruce Hampton & the Aquarium Rescue Unit, Oteil later became the longest-tenured bassist in the history of The Allman Brothers Band.

On May 1, 2026, Oteil will release a new collaborative album with vocalist Lamar Williams Jr. titled ‘The Offering’ – recorded in December 2024 at Iceland’s Flóki Studios and produced by Soulive co-founder Alan Evans.

‘The Offering’ centers on melody, groove, and message rather than genre, weaving together Southern soul, gospel harmonies, improvisational rock, and African-rooted rhythms, all anchored by Burbridge’s banjo explorations and song-driven ensemble approach. First single “The Way We Rise” is out now via Flóki Studios.

Interstate jammers LaMP — featuring Vermont-based Russ Lawton (drums) and Ray Paczkowski (keys), alongside Brooklynite Scott Metzger (guitar) — distill singular, road-honed improv instincts into taut, instrumental epics.

While each of the players has extensive experience with other gigs — Lawton and Paczkowski with the Trey Anastasio Band (TAB) and Soule Monde, and Metzger through projects such as Joe Russo’s Almost Dead (JRAD) and Medeski, Martin, Metzger & Cline (MMMC) — LaMP has hewed its own path.

The trio is currently touring behind their second studio collection, One Of Us, that packs 10 tracks into 35-minutes of kaleidoscopic interplay and club-shifting grooves. It’s the cleanest distillation of the LaMP sound yet, a mission statement of improvisational group-think and compositional chops.

Throughout its runtime, One Of Us acts as a showcase for the myriad of sonic flavors LaMP brings to the table, delivering a listen which works both as deep headphone immersion or a packable-party custom-tailored to deliver the jams to upcoming 2025 tour hangs.

As word has spread and crowds have grown with each subsequent tour, it’s become clear that LaMP ft. Russ Lawton, Scott Metzger & Ray Paczkowski will be a musical force to be reckoned with for the foreseeable future.

If Briscoe’s debut album was a coming-of-age soundtrack set against the backdrop of the Texas Hill Country, then its follow-up, Heat of July, is the sound of a fully-formed duo chasing down a broader horizon.

Inspired by the cross-country tours that took the band across America, these new songs expand Briscoe’s folk-rock sound in all directions. There are bigger arrangements, sharper harmonies, and enough top-tier guest musicians to form their own supergroup. The result is a cinematic, widescreen version of American roots music, created by two lifelong friends who’ve learned to distill the thrill of the open road — and the challenges of growing up — into an ever-evolving soundtrack.

Hot asphalt. Spinning wheels. Mile markers. For Philip Lupton and Truett Heintzelman, those hallmarks of the American highway system have become the only constants in a period filled with change. Signed by ATO Records while still pursuing undergraduate degrees at UT Austin, the two Texas natives recorded Briscoe’s debut album, West Of It All, during their final months as college students. Once graduation arrived, they left town and hit the road, spending a dizzying year crisscrossing the country — particularly the southwest — in a van packed with gear and bandmates. Seated up front, Philip and Truett found themselves in awe of the

canyons, mountains, and mesas that unfolded just outside the windshield. New songs began to arrive during those long drives across the desert, dreamt into existence at 80 miles per hour, as eclectic and evocative as the landscape that inspired them.

“We learned how to write music from behind the wheel,” Philip says, thinking back to the show-filled schedule that helped transform Briscoe from Texas’ best-kept secret into national torchbearers of timeless Americana. “Coming up with melodies in our heads, without a guitar or piano nearby, was a necessity for us during those tours. We were on the road so much that we had to become more mobile with the creative process.”

“There are so many beautiful parts of America, but the southwest is something we really gravitate toward,” adds Truett. “There’s something about that area that makes us want to write songs. During the past year, though, it became the new norm to write songs on the go, drawing inspiration from wherever we were.”

The guys drew inspiration from home, too. Philip and Truett both married their longtime partners in the wake of West Of It All’s success — whose accolades included a Top 40 hit on the Triple A chart with “The Well,” as well as offers to tour alongside acts like Noah Kahan and Dave Matthews Band — and thoughts of family lingered as they traveled across North America, playing everywhere from Canada to Cancun. By the time Briscoe arrived in North Carolina to record Heat of July with Brad Cook — the Grammy-nominated producer behind albums by Bon Iver, Waxahatchee, and Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, as well as Briscoe’s debut — they’d written another batch of songs that celebrated not only the great outdoors, but also their flesh-and-blood roots as husbands and family men. Heat of July makes room for all of it, showcasing a pair of songwriters who’ve learned to grow without leaving their foundations behind.

On “Adeline” — a blast of roadhouse rock & roll, punctuated by harmonica, upright piano, and a lushly harmonized chorus — Truett serenades his wife while Houndmouth’s Matt Myers chimes in on electric guitar. Philip delivers snapshots of his own marriage with songs like “Mexican Eagles” and “Blue Eyes and Red Wine,” filling his lyrics with the rugged imagery of West Texas, singing in a voice that’s the folky foil to his bandmate’s croon. Those entwined voices have been Briscoe’s calling card for years, even since the two singers first crossed paths while attending the same summer camp at 14 years old. Here, their harmonies lead the charge on nearly every track. They come together on acoustic anthems like “Roughnecks,” written about Truett’s great-grandfather (who left Oklahoma to work in the Texas oil fields during the early 20th century) and laced with traditional bluegrass instrumentation. They do the same on “Arizona Shining,” inspired by one of the group’s many road trips through the desert; “Saving Grace,” with its anthemic chorus and love-story narrative; and the haunted, harrowing “Flashlights in the Canyon,” which tells the story of a border-bound woman hoping to escape to America.

“Flashlights in the Canyon is a story inspired by an experience I had along the Texas-Mexico border and the conversations I had with locals in the area afterward.” Philip says, adding, “Having seen firsthand the humanity on both sides of the border crisis, I was inspired to create a narrative that doesn’t advocate for any one agenda, but rather focuses on the real people who are living the conflict. I hope this song helps to shed light on the fact that there is gray area between what so many people believe is black and white”

Briscoe’s songwriting isn’t the only thing that’s grown since West Of It All’s release. Thanks in part to an expanded guest list that includes drummer Matthew McCaughan (Bon Iver), fiddle player Libby Rodenbough (Mipso), mandolinist Andrew Marlin (Watchhouse, formerly know as Mandolin Orange), multi-instrumentalist Phil Cook (Hiss Golden Messenger), and electric guitarist Matt Myers (Houndmouth), Heat of July sounds bigger and bolder than its predecessor. “Free,” with its country-funk groove and soulful stomp, marks new territory for the band, while the album’s title track — with its intro of syncopated banjo and booming percussion — nods to a group willing to electrify and enlarge its sound.

“I studied geology, so driving through Arizona is like me being a kid in a candy store,” says Philip. “We’ll always write songs inspired by that landscape, but we’ve learned how to tell more personal stories with our music, too. We’re talking about our wives, our relationships, and our family trees. We’re really wearing our hearts on our sleeves when we’re writing.”

“It felt like home to be back in the studio with Brad,” Truett adds. “He already understood our dynamic, so he felt comfortable pushing us as songwriters and lyricists. He helped us grow. And whenever we’d say, ‘It would be real nice to have a flatpicking guitar here’ or ‘Maybe this song needs a fiddle,’ Brad would say, ‘What about so-and-so from this band?’ He’d reach out to them, and before we knew it, we had this crazy roster of artists playing with us. It was like a big folk supergroup.”

There’s more touring up ahead, of course. More commitments that will take Briscoe away from the lives they’ve built in Texas. Heat of July may be the band’s next ticket out of town, but it’s also a love letter to the landscape that first inspired Truett and Philip to write songs. The road goes on forever… but for Briscoe, the road always leads back home, too.

“Growing up in the heat taught me to savor the cooler moments: those fifteen minutes of soft blue light just after the sun dips below the horizon,” Philip explains. “That feeling is something I’ll carry with me for the rest of my life. Memories like long drives to reach any city of significance, the smell of rain on hot asphalt, and the fleeting nature of a summer fling — these are the moments I wove into ‘Heat of July,’ which feels like a personal theme song. They’ve left a lasting impression, and no matter where life takes me, I’ll never leave behind the heat of July. You take it with you all year long, and you learn how to appreciate the cool when it does come.”

For Briscoe, there’s a lot to appreciate these days. As they fuel up the van for another year of heavy touring, they’re grateful for everything that’s brought them here, whittling their songwriting into sharp shape, turning them into touring veterans. The heat of July certainly doesn’t bother them. But when another season arrives, they’ll be ready.

This presentation offers a clinically practical framework for identifying hEDS using the 2017 hEDS Diagnostic Criteria, with emphasis on moving beyond isolated diagnostic tools like the Beighton score toward a more comprehensive evaluation of patient history and symptom presentation. Attendees will learn to identify key diagnostic patterns, including chronic pain, joint instability, dysautonomia, and immune-related symptoms.

Particular attention will be given to common comorbidities, including Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, which frequently coexist in the “trifecta” of hEDS/POTS/MCAS. Understanding these overlapping conditions as part of a broader physiological network can reduce fragmentation of care and uncover the body systems involved: the connective tissue, the nervous system, and the immune system. With an understanding of how these systems present in hEDS/POTS/MCAS, attendees will learn simple and accessible treatment approaches to avoid referring out without providing attuned action steps for their patients.

Through case-based learning and literature review, this session will provide actionable screening strategies, highlight common diagnostic pitfalls, and review key considerations for differential diagnosis, including when to refer for genetic or specialty evaluation. The role of therapeutic alliance, patient validation, and longitudinal care will be emphasized as essential components of effective management.

By equipping clinicians with a foundation for accurate diagnosis and first steps for care plan direction, this presentation aims to support earlier recognition of hEDS, improve care coordination, and enhance outcomes for patients with complex, multi-system presentations.

Tickets—requested in advance by members of the Class of 2030—are required for all guests to attend the White Coat Ceremony. The ceremony begins promptly at 1:00 p.m.; chapel doors open for guests at 12:15 p.m. The event will be livestreamed for family and friends who are unable to attend. A professional photographer will take photos of the event; a photo gallery will be available after the ceremony.

After the ceremony, students and their guests are invited to the Larner College of Medicine for an Open House with light refreshments. The Clinical Simulation Lab will host tours, the Dana Health Sciences Library will be open for guests to visit, and other areas throughout the college will welcome visitors.

The White Coat Ceremony, a signature tradition in nearly all U.S. medical schools, is a formal rite of passage for new medical students, marking their transition from student to physician-in-training. A ritual at U.S. medical schools for more than a quarter of a century, this event officially welcomes students to the medical profession, emphasizing their new responsibility as they don the traditional physician’s white coat for the first time. It’s both a tradition and a statement—a formal welcome into the profession, a pledge to uphold its highest values, and a unifying moment for a new class of future physicians.

Hatchford Hotel

A New Musical

by Adam Rabin and Greg Skillman

Check in. Things escalate quickly.

PERFORMANCES: October 2-10, 2026

Welcome to the Hatchford Hotel—where the maple runs thick, the stories run deeper, and you’ll learn more about Vermont than you ever wanted to know. It’s strange. It’s specific. It’s moving fast.
Try to keep up.

"Hatchford Hotel" is a brand-new musical that is dark, fast-paced, and laugh-out-loud funny — with just enough chaos to keep everyone on edge. Set in a suspiciously familiar corner of Vermont, this show dives headfirst into local lore, strange traditions, and the kind of characters you swear you’ve met before… or are trying to avoid.

No experience with Vermont required. Survival instincts recommended.

Friday, October 2nd at 7:00 p.m.

Saturday, October 3rd at 7:00 p.m.

Sunday, October 4th at 2:00 p.m.

After years spent denying he’s “just a gimmick,” Randy has decided it’s time to fully embrace the accusation. In Gimmick, the beloved purple provocateur leans into the absurdity with a blisteringly funny, self-aware hour that blends existential dread, cultural commentary, and relentless punchlines. The result is a uniquely intelligent and surprisingly emotional comedy experience that evolves night to night. Now, American audiences will have the chance to experience Gimmick live as Randy brings his singular brand of high-concept chaos to stages nationwide.

He’s sharp. He’s existential. He’s purple. And yes — he’s absolutely a gimmick.

Whether he’s singing an ode to conspiracy theories, telling his potential paramour all the things he won’t be doing for her (he ain’t fightin’ no Lion), or lamenting his new vegan lifestyle (“Tofurkey? Tof**k yourself- I want some meat”), Stephen Lynch will always consider himself “a musician trapped in the body of a comedian.” His unique blend of musical based comedy has earned him fiercely loyal fans around the world who live to experience his sold-out live shows, six best-selling CDs, his RIAA-certified Gold DVD and his top-rated Comedy Central Specials.

Stephen moved to New York in 1996, with the goal of becoming a performer. While temping during the day, he wrote songs and performed at clubs and underground music venues around Manhattan at night. Stephen quickly developed a devoted fan base and caught the attention of Comedy Central, who invited him to record his 1st cable special in 2000. That special became one of their highest rated shows in the series, almost unheard of for an unknown. His 2nd Comedy Central special debuted in January 2008, with similarly high ratings.

In 2006, Stephen Lynch stepped onto the Broadway stage for the first time in the title role of The Wedding Singer. His performance earned him nominations for some of the highest honors in American Theatre including the Drama League Award for Distinguished Performance, the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Actor in a Musical, as well as the highly coveted Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Musical.

Stephen’s albums “A Little Bit Special,” “Superhero,” “The Craig Machine,” and “3 Balloons” have sold hundreds of thousands of copies around the world. His first DVD, “Live at the El Rey,” was certified Gold by RIAA. Stephen has toured with some of the biggest names in comedy, including Lewis Black and the late Mitch Hedberg. He’s also headlined his own sold out shows throughout the United States, Australia and Europe, where its been said he’s “the Beyonce of Scandinavia.”

When not touring the globe for ardent and enthusiastic fans, Stephen divides his time between New York and Michigan with his wife.

Magoo is a progressive bluegrass quartet from Denver, Colorado, redefining the boundaries of modern bluegrass with fearless creativity and world-class musicianship. Known for their dynamic live performances, the band delivers a powerful blend of intricate arrangements, tight three-part harmonies, and extended improvisations that bring new life to the genre.

Their debut album What a Life arrived in February 2026, capturing the group’s adventurous spirit and balance between heartfelt songwriting and soaring instrumental work. The record honors the roots of bluegrass while boldly exploring its modern evolution, featuring a guest appearance from bluegrass legend Sam Bush on fiddle and harmony vocals and mastering by two-time GRAMMY Award winner David Glasser at Airshow Mastering.

Each member of Magoo brings a distinctive voice and musical strength to the project. Dobroist Dylan Flynn, winner of the 2024 RockyGrass Dobro Competition, adds soulful depth and melodic warmth. Guitarist Erik Hill, runner-up in the RockyGrass Flatpicking Contest, drives the band’s rhythmic pulse with power and precision. Mandolinist Courtlyn Bills injects fiery solos and inventive arrangements, while bassist Denton Turner grounds the sound with groove, timing, and subtle dynamics. Together, they form a sound that is rich, cohesive, and unmistakably their own.

Featuring Dr.Jorell Meléndez-Badillo

Description: This talk will explore the ways that history has always been a contested space in Puerto Rico’s political cultures, from the publication of foundational history texts to the present. More recently, however, the Puerto Rican government has encouraged a politics of forgetting that seeks to erase and silence the archipelago’s past. However history has also been at the center of popular culture, as Bad Bunny’s latest album has demonstrated and it has created spaces to access ideas about the past and fostering collective imaginaries about other potential futures.

Biography: Jorell Meléndez-Badillo is Associate Professor of Latin American and Caribbean History at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He is the author of Puerto Rico: A National History (2024), The Lettered Barriada (2021), and Voces libertarias (2013), and coeditor of Interrogating the Future of Puerto Rican Studies (2026). He is currently completing A Counter-Republic of Letters and working on The Idea of Home, while co-founding and codirecting the Puerto Rican Studies Hub.

As the semester moves towards its end, students and instructors alike may be feeling a mix of fatigue and anticipation. This period, between mid-semester routines and end-of-term closure, offers an opportunity to pause and reflect. Grounded in Sarah Rose Cavanagh’s work on emotion in learning, this workshop explores how engaging students’ emotions – through storytelling, mindfulness, Joy Cards, and other reflective activities – can strengthen presence in the classroom. Emotions stick with students, helping them make connections, step out of their comfort zones, and engage in meaningful ways. Storytelling can reach all kinds of learners and make revision and performance central to learning.

This workshop will introduce a range of strategies and tools from brief in-class activities to longer assignments and explore how instructors can adapt them for the end of the semester and carry these approaches forward into future courses.

In these weekly talks, hosted by the Gund Institute for Environment, scholars and leaders exchange ("xChange") new research and solutions for people and planet.

This week, as federal protections from pollution and toxic chemicals continue to recede, states are increasingly stepping up. Best practice policies in both red and blue states are reducing pollution, improving health outcomes, and saving money. In this talk, Susan Kaplan will describe groundbreaking state policies ranging from the Massachusetts Toxics Use Reduction Act, to a Texas law requiring every school to reduce use of hazardous pesticides, to California’s air pollution reduction program in which local residents sit at the table with regulators. She will pinpoint keys to these policies’ success and discuss actions that policymakers and advocates in other parts of the country can take to address impediments to progress and build on these advances.

About the speaker: Susan Kaplan is an environmental health lawyer, professor and writer. She has held policy positions in federal and state government, served as assistant director of an energy policy group at Harvard University’s Kennedy School, and taught environmental health policy in the public health programs of the University of Illinois Chicago and Northwestern University. Her book, A Healthy Union: How States Can Lead on Environmental Health, was published in fall 2025 (Island Press/Princeton University Press). She lives in Vermont.

The First Amendment protects the free exercise of religion. The Fourteenth Amendment affords all persons equal protection under the law. What happens when those two rights collide, as happened in the Masterpiece Cake case? Must protections for religious liberties come at the expense of non-discrimination statutes?

This presentation considers the unlikely coalition between advocates for the LGBTQ community and members of the Church of Latter Day Saints. In 2015, these political enemies became practical allies, creating a law that required no one to compromise their deepest values. Could it be that religious and sexual minorities may have more in common than activists on both sides allow us to think? A Vermont Humanities event hosted by University of Vermont. Burlington, Alumni House, Silver Pavillion.

Jazz duo Dana & Alden have always had a wanderlust, something they credit to their maternal grandfather. Affectionately known as Papa, he was the kind of person others naturally gravitate towards. It was a photograph from one of his trips to Asia that inspired the Eugene, OR duo’s new album Papa’s Boat. In the image Papa is looking out across the horizon and stood next to his boat Sŵn y Môr (Welsh for “Sound of the Sea.”)

“I think so much of what Alden and I are doing comes from just watching him live his own unique life,” says Dana. Alden agrees. “His emboldened, passionate personality gave us permission to be our own selves, to be unconventional and draw outside of the box.”

Recorded with Malcolm Catto in London in March 2025, Papa’s Boat combines all their childhood love and global experience to create an ecstatic sound built on Dana’s saxophone and Alden’s drums. Recorded with the duo’s backing band, Ebba Dankel (vocals and keys), Andrew Mitchell (bass), Eli Torgersen (vocals and guitar) and Salim Charvet (sax and synths), Papa’s Boat is rooted in jazz but pulling influence from indie, pop, rap, bossa nova, and beyond. A hypnotic combination of sax and buzzing synths on “Lighthouse” sets the tone for an album that uses water as both a reflective surface and a body to get lost in. Elsewhere there are collaborations with Mei Semones, Melanie Charles, and legendary Brazilian songwriter Marcos Valle, a hero figure to the band who appears on “El Gaucho” and “Friendship Is A Boat.”

Throughout its runtime Papa’s Boat sails purposefully between memories of the past and visions of a brighter future. It doesn’t just commemorate their Papa as a beloved character, but shares him with the world.

It’s hard to imagine a band just coming into their own after 20 years of success, but that’s exactly what makes a true anomaly. Gaelic Storm, a multi-national, Celtic juggernaut grows stronger with each live performance, and after two decades and over 2000 shows, they are a true force to be reckoned with.

The band attributes their continued success to their fanatic audience, and it’s a well-diversified crowd for sure – attracting fans of every genre with their rich storytelling, energetic instrumentals, devotion to Celtic traditions and passion for their stagecraft. They are as loyal to their fans as the fans are to them, as front man Patrick Murphy states, “The fans are the ones that have given us this life. We’re here for them.”

Gaelic Storm takes a true blue-collar, hard-nose approach to touring, consistently traveling the US and internationally forging a unique path in the Celtic music world. “You have to see us live. We are the true working-man’s’ band,” says longtime member Ryan Lacey. “We still, and most likely always will, tour most of the year, and that’s how we constantly hone our craft.”

This dedication to their live show dates all the way back to the mid-1990s, when Gaelic Storm kicked off its’ career as a pub band in Santa Monica, California. One which performance led to their discovery that ultimately found the band appearing in the blockbuster film, Titanic (where they performed “Irish Party in Third Class”). This laid the groundwork for a career that would eventually find them topping the Billboard World Chart six times, making appearances at mainstream music festivals, and regularly headlining the largest Irish Festivals across the country, all while gaining a reputation as a genre-bending Irish rock band whose songs mix Celtic traditions with something uniquely creative.

Recent years have seen the addition of Natalya Kay on fiddle and Parker Hastings on guitar, who both bring their own energy, musicianship and spirit to Gaelic Storm.

In these weekly talks, hosted by the Gund Institute for Environment, scholars and leaders exchange ("xChange") new research and solutions for people and planet.

This week, in recent decades, the bicycle has been touted as a vehicle for a small planet, gaining a reputation as a “mobility fix” for congested cities to address the environmental externalities of motorized transportation, support the rise of green economies, and advance urban sustainability and well-being. As more cities have invested in infrastructure to support bicycle transportation, however, scholars and activists have drawn attention to corresponding patterns of support for uneven and consumption-oriented development, gentrification, and racialized disinvestment. In this talk, environmental anthropologist, bicycle researcher, and Gund Fellow Luis Vivanco explores these debates over the sustainability of the bicycle, and assesses a diverse array of alternative frameworks for imagining the relationship between people, bicycles, and the environment.

About the speaker: Luis Vivanco is Professor and Chair of Anthropology at the University of Vermont. Since finishing his Ph.D. in Cultural Anthropology at Princeton University in the late-1990s, his scholarship and writings have focused on the culture and politics of community-level conservation in Costa Rica and Oaxaca, Mexico; multisited fieldwork on the transnational ecotourism certification movement; the cultural and technological history of wildlife films; and ethnographic research on social movements promoting the bicycle as a tool for urban transformation in Colombia, the U.S., and Denmark. Lately he’s been creating hand-drawn comics from his various research endeavors and leads the UVM Comics-Based Research Lab. His tenth book, which was just published in 2026 is Culture, Nature, and Environmental Sustainability: An Anthropological Introduction (John Wiley and Sons).

Carsie Blanton is a songwriter with hooks, chutzpah, and revolutionary optimism. A radical folk artist in the tradition of Woody Guthrie, her infectious melodies and lyrical wit keep listeners rapt while she conjures spirits of vaudeville, campfire singalongs, and punk rock. Blanton and her road-tested band deploy humor, camaraderie, and considerable musical muscle to enroll each audience in a rare vision of hope and solidarity.

In addition to writing and performing music, Carsie works as a political organizer and activist. In fall of 2025, she participated in the Global Sumud Flotilla, a direct action to bring humanitarian aid to Gaza by sailboat. In early October, after a month at sea, she was imprisoned in Israel for five days along with hundreds of her comrades.

Soon after, Blanton released The Little Flame, a song of solidarity covered widely on social media during her detention. The Little Flame features background vocals from Irish band Ye Vagabonds and Carsie’s Palestinian/New Zealander prison-mate Rana Hamida, and appears on her latest album, The Red Album Vol II.

After two decades spent on the road, Blanton has amassed a dedicated fan base and a small menagerie of viral hits, and regularly sells out mid-size venues across the U.S. and Europe. 2026 will find her touring heavily with her own band and in collaboration with Canadian folk-punk rabblerousers The Burning Hell, as well as continuing her organizing work with Artists Against Apartheid, Party for Socialism and Liberation and others.

“Beautiful, militant anthems.”– Ken Tucker, NPR’s Fresh Air

“Carsie Blanton is fighting fascism with big hooks and an even bigger heart.” - American Songwriter

Everything I Wanted finds Honer planting new roots in Nashville, his adopted hometown after a multi-year stint in Southern California. Recorded over 18 days in a garage studio that he built himself, it’s a homemade record with big-studio sparkle, its 13 songs emphasizing the indie and alternative-pop influences that have always lingered on the outskirts of his sound. Here, they’re moved to the forefront, pushing Honer beyond his roots as an acoustic Americana act and into something more eclectic and electrifying. There are string arrangements courtesy of a talented neighbor, Kate Stephenson. There are horn arrangements, pedal steel swells, and contributions from his roommates, too. At the center of that sound is Evan Honer himself: an acclaimed songwriter, storyteller, and bleeding-heart vocalist who, after years on the move, has learned to slow down a bit and appreciate the moment.

Bio: Dr. Levine's research group focuses on developing and applying methods for simulating electronically excited molecules and materials, including those important for solar energy conversion and light-driven chemistry. This work encompasses the development of new theories and simulation methods, the efficient implementation of these methods on high-performance computer hardware, and the application of the resulting tools to solve real chemical problems of fundamental and technological interest. Current applications of interest include semiconductor nanomaterials for solar energy conversion and light emission, and ultrafast spectroscopy, strong field processes in molecules, and optical processes in metal clusters. We focus on understanding nonadiabatic effects in these systems—the exchange of energy between electronic and vibrational/reactive degrees of freedom.

Stay tuned for the abstract and details.

In these weekly talks, hosted by the Gund Institute for Environment, scholars and leaders exchange ("xChange") new research and solutions for people and planet.

This week, many studies have shown that interacting with nature may have beneficial effects for one’s mental health. More specifically, interacting with nature may have dual benefits, both reducing stress and improving attentional control, defined as the ability to actively maintain task goals and avoid sources of interference, thereby representing a critical cornerstone of higher-order cognition. The present talk will briefly highlight ongoing, cutting-edge research in the interdisciplinary field of environment and cognition with respect to both methodological approaches and the core mental and neural processes most likely to benefit from interacting with nature including attention and emotion. These findings will be discussed in light of emerging, integrated perspectives on how human-environment interaction influences both arousal (emotion) and engagement (attention). Future research directions will also be considered with respect to nature’s influence on attention.

About the speaker: Dr. Watson is an experimental cognitive psychologist with a longstanding interest in the control of attention - defined as maintaining task goals and minimizing distractions - as it relates to human behavior and its neural/psychophysiological correlates as observed in both more traditional laboratory contexts and in more applied settings. Dr. Watson’s research has increasingly begun to focus on what impact interacting with nature or urban environments may have on affect and attention. Consistent with this idea, Dr. Watson’s most recent empirical work suggests interacting with nature may calibrate the control of attention, thereby optimizing performance during certain cognitive tasks. Given his interdisciplinary research interests in environment and cognition, Dr. Watson is the lead guest editor of a Special Issue on nature’s influence on attention that will be published in 2027 at the Journal of Cognitive Psychology. Dr. Watson is also the Principal Investigator for the Society for Nature and Cognition, a newly formed, collaborative research group who meets in conjunction with the annual scientific meeting of the Psychonomic Society.

The program concerns the haunting of the Early family (based loosely on the Enfield Poltergeist, which was also the basis for The Conjuring 2), whose two young girls and their mother claim they are being harassed by a presence they call “Pipes.” A camera crew descends on the home to document what, if anything, will happen. Over the course of the evening, they get their answer, and as the communication starts to break down between studio and reporters on the scene, it becomes increasingly difficult for the buttoned-up hosts to make sense of what they are witness and keep their wits about them. What came after has become the stuff of legend: reports of widespread panic in the wake of the broadcast led to the film being buried in the years after, helping the TV movie gain a sizable cult following as an ahead-of-its-time psychological experiment. Now it’s considered a right proper Halloween night classic.

After 15 years, three records, nearly a dozen former members, and one name change, Upstate could almost seem unrecognizable were it not for the constancy of their songs. Original members Melanie Glenn, Harry D’Agostino, and Mary Webster have been writing and playing music together throughout all the upheavals in the band and their lives. It’s their shared dedication to writing songs of lasting value that has persisted across all the changes to their sound. When Dylan Mckinstry finally joined the band in the years of the COVID pandemic, his enthusiasm for that commitment made it the band’s lasting cornerstone.

On their upcoming Abalone, Upstate draws on the best of what has marked the band in all its many eras. They showcase a broad range of sounds and styles from across America’s musical landmarks, from the Hudson Valley to Laurel Canyon and back again (with a few detours to Muscle Shoals). They revive their noted three-part harmonies, this time with McKinstry adding a male voice to the mix. And most importantly, they bring an even more seasoned dedication to writing and performing songs of lasting value.

As the semester moves towards its end, students and instructors alike may be feeling a mix of fatigue and anticipation. This period, between mid-semester routines and end-of-term closure, offers an opportunity to pause and reflect. Grounded in Sarah Rose Cavanagh’s work on emotion in learning, this workshop explores how engaging students’ emotions – through storytelling, mindfulness, Joy Cards, and other reflective activities – can strengthen presence in the classroom. Emotions stick with students, helping them make connections, step out of their comfort zones, and engage in meaningful ways. Storytelling can reach all kinds of learners and make revision and performance central to learning.

This in-person workshop will introduce a range of strategies and tools from brief in-class activities to longer assignments and explore how instructors can adapt them for the end of the semester and carry these approaches forward into future courses.

A magnetic new force on today’s indie scene, Moody Joody deliver a wildly original brand of party music. Beneath the pure pleasure of their high-energy sound, the Nashville-based trio’s glittering and guitar-heavy alt-pop contains an emotional depth that comes from exposing the quiet undercurrents of a chaotic night out: the little-seen moments of longing and loneliness, next-day regret and life-changing reflection. On their forthcoming debut album Plain Jane, co-lead vocalists Kaitie Forbes and Kayla Hall and multi-instrumentalist/producer Andrew Pacheco share a barrage of songs both outrageously fun and powerfully cathartic, all born from a personal metamorphosis that Hall refers to as “abandoning the versions of ourselves that we’ve outgrown and fully owning who we are today.”

A bold new step in their steady rise—including earning elite playlisting with songs like “Velvet Connection” and performing at major festivals like Austin City Limits—Plain Jane spotlights the eclectic sensibilities at the heart of Moody Joody: Forbes’ indie-rock roots, Hall’s lifelong passion for timeless country storytelling, Pacheco’s background as a classically trained pianist and self-taught producer. As the band’s chief lyricists, Hall and Forbes first connected soon after moving to Nashville from their hometowns (St. Louis and Salt Lake City, respectively), then linked up with Pacheco after he and Hall crossed paths at a Pale Waves show. On a whim in summer 2020, the three musicians released the first song they ever created together—a wistful but euphoric track called “The Heat.” “Kayla and I had been collaborating on songs for years by that point, and we were so bored in the pandemic that we finally decided to put something out,” Forbes recalls. “We just threw it out into the world without having any kind of following or industry support, but somehow it got playlisted and everything happened organically from there,” Hall adds. As “The Heat” gained traction on Spotify, Moody Joody tapped into that momentum and continued turning out singles, eventually signing with Photo Finish Records and releasing their debut EP Dream Girl to abundant acclaim, including winning praise from the likes of The Fader and Rolling Stone and landing on Atwood Magazine’s Best of 2024 list.

Produced by Pacheco—with contributions from Moody Joody’s frequent collaborator Scott Harris (Dua Lipa, Role Model)—Plain Jane takes its title from a fictional protagonist whose whirlwind journey from fumbling self-discovery to unapologetic self-acceptance closely mirrors Forbes and Hall’s own experience. “A lot of these songs came from releasing ideas of perfectionism and exploring who we are as woman, all under the overarching construct of the Plain Jane character,” says Hall. “Part of our ethos as a band is embracing our humanness and everything that entails, but we also love to just write about going out and having a crazy time. We’re definitely not afraid to admit that sometimes we’re a little messy.” Recorded at Pacheco’s home studio and at Brooklyn’s Mission Sound and Shifted Recording, the fiercely open-hearted album unfolds in a series of interwoven storylines revealing the deep intentionality of Moody Joody’s artistry. “Because we live in such a singles-focused culture, it might be tempting to pick the ten catchiest songs we could write and call it an album,” says Pacheco. “But we’re all such album-oriented people, and it felt important to create something more conceptual that shows the band’s full range.”

In a potent evolution of their unbridled musicality, Plain Jane expands Moody Joody’s sonic palette while channeling the ecstatic vitality of their live show (a rowdy affair featuring Forbes on guitar and Hall on keys), thanks partly to contributions from touring drummer Brodie Glaza. With its rare collision of carefree attitude and raw vulnerability, the album bounces from the sweetly quirky observation of “Little Blue House” to the disco-leaning confession of “OOPS!” to the acoustic-guitar-laced ache of “Loretta’s Last Call.” On “Heart-Shaped Bed,” Moody Joody offer up a gang-vocal-fueled anthem of dizzying lust, adorning their outpouring with shimmery synth and frenzied guitar tones. “That song started with us just trying to curate a vibe, and spiraled into a story of this fantasy-like perfect night,” explains Hall, noting that the track’s hyper-romantic imagery was largely inspired by the dreamy kitsch of Nashville’s Dive Motel and a magazine cover photo of Marilyn Monroe. Meanwhile, on “Suburbia,” Moody Joody present a stark and soul-baring track that builds to an epic crescendo featuring a live string section. “‘Suburbia’ started as a love song about being left behind after someone gives up on their dreams and goes back to their hometown, but over time we realized it’s more like a message to ourselves,” says Forbes. “Over the years I’ve had moments of feeling so isolated and wondering if I ruined my life by leaving home and pursuing music. But when I listen to that song now, it feels like a reminder that the suburban lifestyle wasn’t meant for me, and I’d never be happy there.”

For Moody Joody, the act of unveiling their most intimate feelings on record brought its share of anxiety. “I grew up in a very religious community where your path through life is essentially carved out for you—and if you choose to leave the religion and lifestyle like I did, it could be perceived that you’ve lost your way and your light,” says Forbes. “It was scary to write these songs and be so honest about where I’m at now, but ultimately I think it was the best way to become more comfortable with myself.” And with the release of Plain Jane, the band hope that their audience might unlock their own sense of fearlessness. “I think we’ve gotten so much stronger when it comes to showing up with reckless abandon and telling our stories in a completely truthful way, and I hope that helps other people to feel more confident,” says Hall. “At the same time, I really love the idea of someone turning the album up loud in the car with all the windows rolled down, and feeling so excited to go out and follow their dreams the same way that we did.”

In these weekly talks, hosted by the Gund Institute for Environment, scholars and leaders exchange ("xChange") new research and solutions for people and planet.

This week, Rubenstein School for Environment and Natural Resources Associate Professor and Gund Faculty Fellow Cecilia Danks digs into the role of local communities in conserving and stewarding natural landscapes and resources is growing at a time when centralized government management of these critical resources is faltering. A brief overview of community-based forestry globally provides the historical context to understand U.S. versions, with a focus on New England’s town forests and community co-management in the fire-prone forests of the West. Cecilia will share findings from the first cohort of the Vermont town forest census and a case study of the new Trinity Headwaters Community Forest in California. Both involve public-private partnerships that require strong state and federal partners.

About the speaker: Cecilia Dank's research focuses on the intersection of community well-being and forest stewardship. Her work has addressed issues in community-based forestry, community-based forest enterprises, communities and carbon markets, forest certification, community-level socioeconomic monitoring, institutions for collaborative management, and the working forest. Cecilia is interested in institutional arrangements for community-based resource management, especially as they affect equity and sustainability in: climate change policies, community-based forestry, and forest carbon.

Spanning every decade since the 1960s, Nightrain’s setlist is a journey through the golden eras of rock, with each song performed with precision, passion, and respect for the original. Whether it’s timeless anthems or deep-cut favorites, the band captures the spirit and sound that defined generations.

What makes Nightrain unique is the chemistry at its core—four high school friends who’ve been playing music together for 20 years. That bond translates on stage, where their tight musicianship and natural camaraderie create a live experience that’s as fun for the band as it is for the audience.

“It clicked for me one day, that the album was going to be about hornets,” explains Sputnik, the mononymous songwriter behind the noise-pop project Weatherday. “It just made sense to me.”

Hornet Disaster, Weatherday’s follow-up to their 2019 debut Come in, and spiritual successor to 2022’s collab release Weatherglow, is their most expansive work to date. In Weatherday’s initial bout of inspired writing and recording, they produced over 70 songs for the record, but not before they had a complete, overarching narrative that was coherently tied back to Sputnik’s previous work.

It’s a bustling record with disparate songs each vying for space like wasps in a swarm. It can inspire caution and chaos, but there’s wonder, purpose, and a certain familiarity there, too. Weatherday has extended the knotted, thrashing maximalism of Come in by doubling down with the uncompromised, no-stone-unturned nature of Hornet Disaster. Where Come in was the product of an artist searching for their voice, Hornet Disaster represents the joyful abandon that comes from having found it.

A musical lighthouse, shining a resilient light for everyone that has had to pull themselves up by their bootstraps, Tropidelic has arrived on the national stage. Hailing from Cleveland, Ohio, a city rich in character and music history, this six-piece performance powerhouse carves their own path with an independent mentality. Front man Roads, explores feelings more than sounds, seeing where the emotional travel can take him, while valuing being comfortable and honest.

There is a sense of seeing where the music can go on every track they release. As an everyman-band making music to overcome life’s obstacles, the “goals” that Tropidelic made when starting the band have all been surpassed. Roads says of the band’s future, “I’m nose to the grindstone. It’s going great and I am going to keep going.”

Recent highlight moments include a first pitch at a Cleveland Guardians game followed by a live performance for the entire stadium; an adopted highway in their hometown; producing two of their own music festivals (Sunny Days and Everwild Music Festival); tens of millions of streams of Tropidelic’s music; appearances at major US festivals such as Okeechobee, Beach Life, and Tortuga; tours with The Dirty Heads, Lupe Fiasco, and 311; and multiple performances at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.

There’s a raw, restless fire at the heart of Winyah’s music – in the crackle of their guitars, the growl of Thomas Rowland’s voice, and songs that always feel like they’re chasing something just out of reach. With southern swagger, indie rock bite, and an unforgettable live show, the South Carolina five-piece are quickly emerging as one of the most exciting new bands in the country, fueled by high ambitions and the desire to build a real community – a space where people can feel something, escape, or just be. Having already played Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza and sold out their first headline tour, Winyah are pushing themselves harder than ever – with an upcoming sophomore album that promises more of that same friction, soul, and intentional songwriting that’s carried them this far. They’re dreamers intent on becoming a face of the new rock-and-roll revival, building something meant to be felt – together.

Carbon Leaf’s fifteenth studio album, Time is the Playground is both a call to action and an embrace of the moment. Marrying nostalgic storytelling to nuanced, folk-infused indie rock, the Richmond, Virginia band embroiders heartfelt melody and harmony with acoustic and electric instrumentation to create a 12-song rumination on time, love and personal growth that’s equal parts urgent epiphany and contented exhalation.

“Everybody says people don’t listen to albums anymore,” mulled Carbon Leaf frontman Barry Privett, holed up in a coastal cottage. “So, the challenge for us was to make something that felt good to get through from beginning to end … to listen to like a story.”

Originally formed as a college cover band in 1992 and with over 3,500 famously enthused live shows together, Carbon Leaf helped to define the aughts indie rock that they ultimately outgrew and outlasted. They first earned national recognition with “The Boxer,” a song that won the American Music Awards 2002 New Music Award and made Carbon Leaf the first unsigned band to perform before millions on the AMAs.

“The Boxer” entered regular radio rotation, Carbon Leaf’s tours grew bigger and better, and within a couple of years they quit their day jobs and inked a record deal. The band’s fanbase snowballed, drawn to their infectious spirit of commitment, empathy, communion, and selfreliance – not to mention supremely crafted songs with ultra-relatable, thought-provoking lyrics.

After a trio of charting albums for Vanguard Records, multiple songwriting awards and headlining shows, Carbon Leaf opted to return to the complete creative control of their indie roots. Guitarist Terry Clark, who co-founded the band with Privett and multi-instrumentalist Carter Gravatt, converted his garage into the band’s Two-Car Studio, where they’ve recorded releases for their own Constant Ivy imprint ever since. Carbon Leaf’s DIY spirit even extended to re-recording their three Vanguard albums in order to regain the rights.

Due in September, Time is the Playground is Carbon Leaf’s first full-length album in a decade, during which they released two EPS and a 27-song live performance album and Blu-ray. Time is the Playground gathers the best of songs written, in fits and starts, over 15 years, alongside brand new ideas. Privett dusted off old demos and shut himself away for months to finish their stories, while also honing recent compositions. With Clark engineering, Carbon Leaf – completed by longtime bassist Jon Markel and drummer Jesse Humphrey – spent a year and a half recording and mixing the resulting songs.

“Thinking about these disparate pieces of music, I began ruminating on time itself,” Privett recalled. “The band’s been together a long time. You mature a bit and see yourself in place on the timeline … rolling around the scenes of love and growth.”

Masterfully melding saturated AC/DC guitar and squelchy Cars synth, “Backmask 1983” is a fun flipbook of evocative era emblems – Farah Fawcett, “Satanic Panic,” Time Life Books, Bigfoot and more – that traverses the simultaneous nexus of Privett’s childhood/adolescence and the world’s analog/digital ages. It’s about morphing into a new person and a new planet with wideeyed wonder and a longing to believe. “Without a whole lot of information, the mystery of things felt so heightened,” recalled Privett of growing up pre-Internet. “I wanted to capture some of that but also have fun with it.” “I want what we create to resonate with ourselves, to the level that we want to play it for a long time to come, and where we want others to hear it and experience it,” Privett concluded. “Hopefully, listeners can glean the pieces from it that they identify with.”

Time is the Playground will be accompanied by the tireless touring almost synonymous with Carbon Leaf, who’ve become a model for self-managing bands in the digital landscape.

In and of itself, chemistry may be quiet, but you see, hear, and feel its impact.

Such close chemistry drives the interplay of In Color. The Nashville band—Holden Clontz, Matthew Hastings, Val Hoyt, and Miles Laderman—lean on a silent bond sealed by years of friendship and a collective passion for pushing boundaries. They bring dimension to alternative pop, threading unshakable melodies through multi-layered soundscapes.

After buzzing with millions of streams independently, the group simply transfix and invigorate on their 2025 debut EP, Snow Day [Big Loud Rock].

“To us, there’s definitely an unspoken vision for what In Color is,” observes Holden. “We don’t talk about it a lot. It comes from being friends for so long and listening to the same music. We’re all different in our own ways, but it works so well.”

“It’s a special thing, because we trust each other’s instincts,” agrees Val. “We enjoy writing together. So, we’re able to authentically create and put out music that feels like we’re putting ourselves on the line.”

Though the members’ paths had crosses over the years, you can trace the band’s genesis back to a particularly brutal snowstorm in early 2024. Val and Miles first met at an Atlanta middle school, attended the same high school, made their way to Belmont University, and lived together for a handful of years in Nashville. Holden had moved to Music City at 19-years-old and linked up with Matt through his roommate, hitting it off and “becoming best friends.” By way of this friend group, Matt eventually moved in with Val. Not to mention, the guys had separately played in various bands or released solo music.

However, it took a blizzard to unlock the potential among them.

“The four of us were hanging out every day,” says Matt. “Val and I lived together. Once the snow started, everybody just decided to stay over at our place. Musically, we had been doing different things, but getting snowed in was the catalyst we needed. A few days later, Val sent everyone a text, and it was a picture of all of us. He was like, ‘We would look really cool as a band’. That’s all it took!”

“We all secretly wanted to be a part of something bigger,” notes Holden. “We had lived life as friends, so why not do this?”

For the next year, the band operated “in private,” as they like to say. Under the radar, the guys got together, jammed, wrote songs, and tightened up a collective approach. They drew on inspirations as diverse as Coldplay, Kings of Leon, Switchfoot, The Beatles, U2, and Michael Jackson, cultivating a signature style. With the sound dialed in, the group started to record.

“When you listen to the music, it’s multi-faceted,” says Miles. “We don’t abide by any confines of genre. We look and feel like a ‘rock band’, but it’s not traditional.”

Powered by this perspective, In Color instantly resonated by threading timeless pop songcraft into an airy ever-evolving sonic fabric. Released on Valentine’s Day 2025, their debut “Headlights” surpassed 4.5 million Spotify streams followed by standouts such as “Liar” and “Is There Anyone?”

Elsewhere, “Time” rides out of the gate on a steady beat, warm bassline, and delicate vocals. Keys glimmer, and a palm-muted riff boosts the refrain, “Over again, the sun is turning around. I won’t pretend that I don’t need you now. I’d fall in love with you forever, oh we don’t have enough time.”

“We were thinking of seasons, and it aligns with the leaves changing colors and a new start,” adds Miles. “It fit this mindset.”

The EP single “I Want You” strikes a balance between a bouncy hip-hop-esque cadence and nineties alternative ambition. Simultaneously, it delivers a straightforward, albeit impactful message.

“It’s a simple love song that truly encapsulates the feeling of wanting someone,” notes Holden. “It was a great way to close out this introductory chapter.”

Ultimately, In Color pull a vibrant sound from their union as collaborators and friends. It’s natural, and that’s why it resonates.

“We had all been around the music industry for years, and when we chose to start this, it was like we were unlearning everything before,” smiles Matt. “We found our people, and everything made sense.”

“Having each other has allowed us to be the best individual versions of ourselves,” concludes Miles. “You’re constantly thinking, ‘How can I show up for the guys in this moment?’ All I need to do is be myself so I can be part of this with the guys and build it up. That’s what we’re doing.”

Primer 55 is a nü-metal/rap-metal outfit formed in 1997 by guitarist Bobby Burns and rapper/singer Jason “J-Sin” Luttrell. They made their major-label debut with *Introduction to Mayhem* in January 2000, which remains a touchstone for their fanbase. Tragically, original frontman J-Sin passed away on August 10, 2018, after a long battle with health issues tied to Hepatitis C. His voice and spirit are still deeply revered by the band and fans. When the reunited band announced their *Introduction to Mayhem* 25th-anniversary shows, they framed those upcoming performances as a celebration of his legacy. In late 2024, Bobby Burns revealed he had been battling liver issues. Despite the severity of the condition, Burns has publicly expressed determination and resilience, crediting his recovery progress with rallying support from friends, family, and fans. His health battle has become part of the band’s narrative of resurgence, and his ability to press onward is seen as a testament to his grit.

Now reunited as of 2025, Primer 55 — with Donny “The DRP” Polinske on vocals, Burns on guitar, Joshua Toomey on bass, and Preston Nash on drums — is hitting the road this October to honor *Introduction to Mayhem*’s 25th anniversary. The tour isn’t just a nostalgic revisit — it’s a bold statement that, despite loss and adversity, the spirit of Primer 55 endures.

Beloved Minnesota songwriting troubadour Charlie Parr doesn’t have dental insurance, like so many in the United States. So when he needed dental work, he had to figure out how to respond to a hefty bill. “You know, I’ve got a few guitars and a big record collection, so I started selling stuff off to be able to pay off this dental bill because I had to get them fixed.” This experience inspired him to start writing the song cycle and as-yet-unfinished novella that became Rooming House, a conceptual folk opera that chronicles the lives of Upper Midwesterners through his quietly raucous, deeply rooted, and empathetic blues sound.

When Parr first moved to Minneapolis from Austin in the 1980s, he lived in rooming houses. “I loved them so much. I really did. It was just a really interesting, wonderful bunch of people that I got to know. It felt like this strange family. You had a cross-section of everybody in these houses.” Parr’s lyrics ensure that you can picture these people and spaces—the shared kitchens, the makeshift family, the efforts to keep warm. The first single “Rooming House” sets the scene, with imagery and detail that one can clearly picture.

These are indelible songs of lost memories and hardship, but also of acts of empathy and helping neighbors make do; of taking each other in. “The characters in the songs all along have been loosely based on composites of people I’ve met,” says the songwriter. “I got to think about those folks. I don’t remember anybody ever not using the free clinic, which doesn’t exist anymore,” he remembers. He writes in a poem included as liner notes, “These folks here, in this record, have no idea what’s wrong. Or how to help. I know people who can’t afford to see a doctor. I’ve heard them talking about ‘toughing it out,’ or seeking advice about home remedies that will never work. I have a friend who knows someone who does his own dental work.”

For instance, the character John, an orphan whose story Parr builds throughout Rooming House, tries home remedies in the album’s second single, “(what’s so funny about) Universal Healthcare?” When they don’t work, decides to get caught robbing a bank (“Bank Robber”), figuring there are doctors in jail. He hands the teller a note that reads, “I’m sick and I’m tired and I only want some peace.” In the lush and light “Duluth 2026,” the cops take him back to the rooming house and charges aren’t pressed.

Living in a rooming house on Minneapolis’ West Bank, Parr would see local legends Dave Ray, “Spider” John Koerner, or Willie Murphy any night of the week. He soaked up an earthy, blues-driven sound. He plays a modified Gretsch twelve-string guitar that belonged to Koerner (tuned to either open C or standard) as well as a nine-string Mule resonator on two songs (tuned to open D). Of the resonator, he says, “It gives you this Big Joe Williams kind of jangly, weird, slightly off-kilter vibe.”

To depict characters who had to improvise their health care and lives, Parr decided that a more spontaneous recording approach made sense. Jazz drummer Dave King (The Bad Plus, Happy Apple) accompanied him on the sessions, putting Parr’s guitar and King’s drums in musical dialogue. Each recorded take differed.

The narrative thread takes a breather with the twangy and hysterical “(what’s so funny about) Universal Health Care?” Yet even that song is from the main character’s point of view.

Rolling Stone has called Parr’s music “a gritty blend of Delta blues and Depression-era roots music soaked in his hardscrabble voice. It’s a sacred realm of folk wisdom and sorrowful vulnerability.” NPR said he offers “expertly-picked resonator guitar and lyrics that puncture the soul.” Parr tours prolifically, and has performed at tastemaker events like the Newport Folk Fest and Pickathon.

The Duluth-based guitarist, songwriter, and interpreter of traditional music has released twenty albums over two-and-a-half decades and has been known to perform up to 275 shows a year. Parr is a folk troubadour in the truest sense: taking to the road between shows, writing and rewriting songs as he plays, fueled by a belief that music is eternal and cannot be claimed or adequately explained. The sounds from his working-class upbringing—including Folkways legends such as Lead Belly and Woody Guthrie—imbue Parr’s music with stylistic echoes of blues and folk icons of decades past. Parr sees himself merely as a continuer of a folk tradition.

Parr’s mastery of his craft is only more apparent when contextualized within the history of folk tradition to which Parr has dedicated his practice. The land and lives around and intersecting with Parr have always influenced him, from the hills and valleys of Hollandale, Minnesota to the Depression-era stories from his father.

Before he was even ten years old, Parr was rummaging through his father’s record collection—sometimes drawing dinosaurs on the vinyl sleeves—and listening to country, folk, and blues legends, many of whom are staples in the Folkways catalog. When Parr sings and plays his resonator or 12-string, you can hear influences like Koerner, Mance Lipscomb, Charley Patton, Rev. Gary Davis, Dock Boggs, Doc Watson, and Booker White.

Parr’s first album with Smithsonian Folkways, Last of the Better Days Ahead (2021), foregrounded his lyrical craftsmanship and sophisticated bluesman confidence, with spare production highlighting Parr’s mastery of guitar and elevating his blues poetry. In his 2024 release, Little Sun, Parr weaved together stories celebrating music, community, and communing with nature. In doing so, he put forth an ambitious and raw album that exemplifies the best of Parr’s sound: his blend of the blues and folk traditions with the steadfast originality of a poet. Now, he continues that tradition with 2026’s poignant and timely Rooming House, which joins the chorus of WPA-era socially-conscious folk operas and outlaw country concept albums of the 1970s to poignantly allegorize his experiences and the experiences of the people around him.

Greg Freeman, All Set The Bone

Greg Freeman won’t be getting comfortable anytime soon. Across New Mexico, Vermont, Los Angeles, and a long stretch of tour stops hooking those places together, All Set The Bone came alive. While writing and recording it, Freeman moved out of his longtime home in Burlington, holed up in a middle-of-nowhere part of the Southwest, and stepped into music full-time, leaving behind odd jobs as a cemetery landscaper and restaurant line cook. The following album is populated by a grain of similarly unsettled people: a voter buried in credit card debt, a pair of Christian hearts clanking like trapped lobsters, a town of bent necks, a lover with limbs bent like crabapple trees. Freeman calls All Set The Bone a “reflection of a lot of change, and a lot of tension.” It’s a box of political and personal yarns spread across four sides, “inhuman events” and grief pulled into a “perfect tsunami.”

Freeman was barely done making Burnover when he started writing its successor. He chased disruptions with confidence, creating on impulse rather than familiarity. “I had this epiphany moment where I understood what the next record should be,” he says, “which surprised me, because I thought it would take a lot longer to have the influences or inspiration required to undertake writing a new album.” What arrived instead were radioactive songs that never seemed overworked or moralizing. There may as well have been a “no overthinking” sign pasted above the studio door.

Traces of pre-Good News Modest Mouse and early Pavement linger, but All Set The Bone resists easy lineage through a deliberate fracture that’s twisting yet familiar. Freeman’s longtime obsessions with Fugazi and Unwound color the album’s heavier dirges—like “Hail Mary”’s math-rock chords snapping against post-hardcore distortion—and its spangled outposts grew from a diet of Big Star, The Drones, and Mission of Burma. The best parts of All Set The Bone blink like psychotic blues ramp-ups, while the heavy-metal/weeping violin onslaught of “Untitled 10” leaves room for punches of brass. Lyrically, Freeman’s pen is too strong for analogy, as he riffs on bodies turned to ground beef, or chasing a dream but settling for a niche.

After Burnover’s queasy fixation on ghost stories and various New York locales and histories, Freeman again returns to the immediacy and anxiety of time and history, building a choir of questions out of constellations where “the light pours in the like hourglass sand.” Opener “Cahokia” is titled after the ancient Indigenous mounds that sit on the Illinois side of the Mississippi River, whose builders disappeared. Freeman uses taxidermy and amber-casted bugs to contextualize songs about love and grief in “Untitled 10.” Near the end of side one, he even makes this striking declaration: “No culture, and no more rock and roll.” But “Decade” may sum All Set The Bone up best: “History rubbernecks at each of your darkening thoughts.” Freeman says there’s a “sense of time running out, of us becoming stuck in the trajectory of our own history.” It’s a theme that he’s been unpacking since I Looked Out, but he’s never done it better than right here in these seventy minutes.

And what we get is paradoxical: Freeman’s most exposed writing but also his most evasive. Songs like “Costs” cut closer to direct confession: “in the flash of puke’s surrender, I relive life through every bender,” or the “thousand gears between my ears, working overtime to taxidermy every worthy heartbreak into rhyme.” But much of All Set The Bone is grounded in second-person. It’s not used as a tool for distance, but a means of rejecting any prescriptive tones. When Freeman asks, “Do you feel your world will shatter at the slightest touch? Is it the child in you that’s scared to feel too much?,” the effect never sounds sanctimonious.

Freeman’s audience ignited like brimstone in 2023. Songs like “Come and Change My Body” have eclipsed the critical circles that first engaged with his music, making Freeman a bonafide threat to indie-rock’s throne. The attention, he says, still catches him off-guard. “I never get used to that, or take that for granted,” he says. “But, on the flip side, I don’t think about it too much when I’m writing music, and I think that’s important when you’re making something genuine. It’s about what you want to make, not what other people want.” That stance has become more complicated now that music is what pays his bills. Touring occupies most of his calendar, while recording happens in the gaps it leaves open. Instead of enjoying a multi-year hiatus between Burnover and All Set The Bone, he pushed straight into the latter, emerging with an hour of total music devotion.

He assembled a band built to embody and obliterate contradiction—to walk the tightrope between chaos and precision. The “I wanna feel like a drummer, felt but not shown” line in “Indu” says it best, as the Greg Freeman Band is at its most spectacular when parts are heard as a sum. Freeman’s longtime collaborators Garrett Linck and Sam Atallah, Florry’s Joey Sullivan, and The Rockin Worms’ Carney Hemler lived with him in the California desert, practicing for a few weeks before hitting record. He’s also joined by songwriters Anna McClellan and Trinity Ace, whose vocal ranges complement the distinctiveness of his shrill, creaking voice rather than overwhelm it. Freeman doesn’t ask for much from his duet partners. “Someone who can sing with me and make it sound good” is enough. McClellan’s “high glottal” rises above his upper range, while Ace’s deeper harmonies sit naturally beneath his.

Where I Looked Out and Burnover were made closer to home in Vermont, All Set The Bone was redirected westward, landing in Los Angeles under the guiding hand of producer John Congleton. The shift from Burlington staple Benny Yurco to Congleton seemed like a risk initially, but his and Freeman’s chemistry proved immediate. “Even when you can’t describe exactly what you want, he knows what you’re talking about,” the guitarist says. The sessions flourished through instinct: the album’s rawest moments, like “Bury Me The Shovel,” were treated as live, impromptu propositions from the outset, built to remain unpolished. In “Loser’s Prize,” Freeman writes about the fears of love “nursed by catastrophe, yet protected by the limits of its own memory.” Just as he did on I Looked Out and Burnover, he dives well and far here into what it costs to live through the present moment, and his band’s instrumentation mirrors that with dense song structures and spacious improvisation.

Freeman made I Looked Out without expectation or remorse. On All Set The Bone, he embraces friction instead of refusing it, using scant rehearsal times and urgent, self-appointed deadlines to fill his third album with ambitious whims: smile-stretching guitar scorchers, cosmic percussive surges, near-baroque piano riffs, psych-rock noodles, brass cutouts, and enough key changes to build an unsolvable musical maze. All Set The Bone was finished quickly, in a real Hollywood studio with one of rock’s best modern architects, and with minimal separation between idea and outcome. For Freeman, uncertainty has become his wealthiest currency. “It should never feel comfortable,” he says. “Every album should scare you.”

“Oh yeah, I guess I did do some of that stuff,” says Simon Green, as he reflects on his 25-year-plus career as the man behind the music of Bonobo. It’s a typically self-effacing response from an artist who has spent that time forging a path as one of the defining voices in electronic music. A path that along the way has seen him release two Top-10 Albums (2017’s ‘Migration’ and 2022’s ‘Fragments, which both landed at #5 on the UK chart), plus numerous Gold and Silver certified singles, sell over 900,000 records, rack up billions of streams, collaborate with the likes of Erykah Badu and Damon Albarn, and be both BRIT and GRAMMY-nominated – the latter seven times, with five in the dance/electronic categories, a record number of nominations shared with The Chemical Brothers, Skrillex and Madonna.

His renowned live show – built around a full live-band, guest vocalists and immersive visuals – has also set the blueprint for how and where an electronic musician can translate their records into the live arena. He has performed to millions of people across the globe, with sold-out shows at prestigious venues like the Sydney Opera House, Alexandra Palace and Red Rocks Amphitheatre – in many cases as one of the first electronic artists to do so – and the world’s biggest festival stages including Glastonbury, Coachella, Sonar and Fuji Rock. His last tour also included both a co-headline of London’s Field Day (alongside Aphex Twin), and a historic sold-out 5-night residency at the Royal Albert Hall, which was the longest consecutive run there by a solo artist, and the longest ever by an electronic musician.

Alongside this, Green’s OUTLIER events and DJ sets have continued to place him at the centre of contemporary dance music culture, connecting with generations of club-going audiences in warehouses, festivals and underground venues alike. He has curated lineups in recent years that featured the likes of Barry Can’t Swim, Sofia Kourtesis, salute, Kelly Lee Owens, Mall Grab, DJ Tennis, SG Lewis, Carlita, Elkka, HAAi, John Talabot, Paula Tape and many more, with his 15,000-capacity OUTLIER showcase at Drumsheds in London becoming the fastest-selling event of the season, and a sold-out “homecoming” OUTLIER show at the 10,000 capacity On The Beach (Brighton).

“I want to reinforce this idea that you can be more than one thing,” Green explains. It’s that duality – of live artist and DJ, introspective composer and club-focussed selector – that sits at the heart of latest album ‘Distance in Static’, a record that is full of depth, detail and emotion; both beautiful and banging; quintessentially Bonobo, yet pushing beyond the contours of what a Bonobo album has traditionally been.

Across the record he collaborates with a typically striking cast of artists including Arooj Aftab, Joy Crookes, Nilüfer Yanya, Ichiko Aoba, Nicole Miglis and Aanya Martin. Lyrics appear in English, Urdu and Japanese, while historic Iranian samples and guzheng recordings sit alongside Green’s own meticulously processed instrumentation, woven together across recording sessions spanning LA, Tokyo, London and beyond.

A large portion of the record was created at Neil Young’s legendary Broken Arrow Ranch studio in Woodside, California – an environment Green describes as deeply immersive and creatively transformative. “It’s quite a mental place,” he recalls. “There’s this picture of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young all jamming there with their shirts off in their 20s, and it’s like you see the picture and then you look over and there’s the place and there’s the studio and there’s the tape machine. There’s something quite magical about it creatively.”

Hidden among woods and rivers, the sessions became almost monastic in nature: “I didn’t leave that place for two weeks straight. I didn’t go into town. I didn’t shave. It was just very, very focussed. I was just making soup and coffee and working. Building a little fire in the cabin. Hiking around in the woods in the morning. Hanging out by the river. It was social isolation as well, not really speaking to anyone. It was very meditative.”

A pivotal track to emerge from these Ranch sessions was the enchanting “Fire on the Water”, featuring Arooj Aftab, who travelled down from her NYC base to record what became a breakthrough moment during the album’s creation. Evolving, almost accidentally, from a rough acoustic guitar loop recorded while Green was testing studio inputs one morning. On hearing it, Aftab responded immediately, layering vocals in Urdu – the lyrics inspired by poetry from a close friend – to produce one of the record’s standout moments. “When that song happened, that’s when I could first see an album coming into shape,” says Green. “We were both like, ‘Oh, this is really special’.”

Elsewhere, tracks like “Drift” and “Me and You” perfectly encapsulate the album’s club-focussed leanings, with both quickly emerging as firm fan favorites in Green’s recent DJ sets. The latter, a “kitchen table banger” built originally on his laptop shortly after returning home from touring, was borne from a desire to create something driven almost entirely by rhythm, inspired by the kind of percussive sounds he’d been hearing in the club. “It was very joyful and it sort of popped out quite quickly in a couple of days,” he explains. “I’ve been playing it out ever since.”

Other standout collaborations on the record include the soulful intimacy of “Always on Your Side” with Joy Crookes; the lo-fi instrumentation of “Youths Fountain” featuring Nilüfer Yanya – notable as a track that also features every musician involved in the forthcoming live show; and “Talk to Me” featuring Nicole Miglis (Hundred Waters), marking the first time Green has collaborated with a vocalist twice on his records, and featuring a backstage recording of the pair harmonising during vocal warmups on the ‘Fragments’ tour. Elsewhere the album takes in delicate ballad “Equinoctial”, featuring renowned Japanese artist Ichiko Aoba, and “Can’t You See” featuring London-based vocalist Aanya Martin.

There are moments of emotional weight amongst the album’s most club-driven tracks, too, with “Uncasually” named after the online handle of a close friend of Green who passed away last year, honouring her through the kind of ecstatic dancefloor release she would have loved most.

The title of the record – ‘Distance in Static’ – is perhaps also an appropriate indicator for where Green finds himself now, evoking images of fuzzy transmissions and transient frequencies; fragments of memory and meaning echoing back through more than two decades at the forefront of electronic music. He sees the traces of his own work reflected in a younger generation rediscovering 90s trip-hop, downtempo and leftfield electronic music through a contemporary lens. “I think the front end of what I’ve done has now become something that’s referential to younger people,” he says.

“I liked the idea of listening for a distant signal — trying to find something in the noise,” he continues, and there’s a sense throughout the record of searching for transcendence: music suspended somewhere between intimacy and scale, the familiar and the unknown. The album’s visual world, created alongside celebrated designer Trevor Jackson, reflects this shift too. Moving away from the landscape-inspired aesthetics of earlier Bonobo records, ‘Distance in Static’ instead draws on microscopic photography by renowned photomicrographer John I. Koivula, creating crystalline alien worlds that feel simultaneously natural and otherworldly. Those themes will also run through the brand new live show, designed in collaboration with Pierre Claue – renowned for his work with Air, Gesaffelstein, Phoenix, and Caroline Polachek – to deliver another evolution in the Bonobo live experience.

Buried within the ‘Distance in Static’ universe, there is also a sense that this record – and particularly the accompanying live tour – marks something quite monumental, too. It’s a moment of transition, a celebration of Bonobo’s 25 years, but also, perhaps his last record in the traditional sense: complete with expansive guest features and a multi-year full live-band world tour. “It’s probably the last go-around the track in this format,” he admits. And on the future? “I don’t know what that will look like just yet, but It’s really about me redefining how to be a musician from here.”

Whatever comes next, one thing is for sure: ‘Distance in Static’ is arguably Green’s finest record to date; as ambitious and forward thinking as ever, and a reminder, if ever one was needed, of why Bonobo has remained such an influence on so many, for so long.

In these weekly talks, hosted by the Gund Institute for Environment, scholars and leaders exchange ("xChange") new research and solutions for people and planet.

This week, after more than three decades of meeting annual U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change reporting commitments, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency did not publish a national greenhouse gas inventory in April 2025. The resulting data gap extends beyond international reporting: states rely on consistent, transparent emissions data to track progress, develop policy, and identify mitigation opportunities. In response, University of Maryland researchers published a non-governmental national Greenhouse Gas Inventory and Analysis (GHGIA) in April 2026 and have since released state-level estimates and companion calculation tools. This presentation explores the challenges of rebuilding the inventory system while preserving the integrity and rigor of its estimates, alongside opportunities to make emissions data more transparent, accessible, and useful for climate policy. Ultimately, this is a story about preserving a critical climate data resource while using disruption to rethink whom greenhouse gas inventories serve and what they can enable.

About the speakers:

Kenna Rewcastle is a soil scientist and greenhouse gas inventory specialist who co-leads agriculture and land sector emissions compilation for the GHG Inventory and Analysis program at the University of Maryland's Center for Global Sustainability. Previously at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, she supported compilation of these estimates for the U.S. National GHG Inventory, led international greenhouse gas inventory capacity-building efforts under the Paris Agreement Transparency Accelerator, and provided technical assistance to EPA Climate Pollution Reduction Grant recipients in the development of state, local, and tribal government climate action plans and emissions monitoring systems. She holds a PhD from the University of Vermont Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources.

Lindsay “Bar” Barbieri is an Assistant Research Professor at the University of Maryland and the Science-Policy Lead for the Global Land Programme. She works at the interface of land, society, and environment, contributing to research, policy, and program implementation across a diverse range of projects. She is particularly interested in research that connects rigorous, community-responsive science with societal benefit, from tracing nutrient flows through terrestrial systems to supporting and evaluating initiatives that foster ecosystem flourishing. Previously, she served as a senior geospatial analyst with the U.S. Agency for International Development. She holds a PhD in Natural Resources, with a certificate in Ecological Economics, from the University of Vermont as a Graduate Fellow in the Gund Institute for Environment.

You are cordially invited to step into the seductive shadows of a 1920s cabaret, joining a spectacular masked anniversary celebration honoring the career of Burlington’s most notorious burlesque producer. Lose yourself in an evening of dazzling acts and mystery.

Dress in your finest 1920s-inspired attire for our costume contest, or don a mask and disappear into the intrigue.

Grab your detective hat and dive into a world of sultry suspects and hidden clues. It’s up to you to piece together the story, follow the evidence, and help unmask the culprit before the final curtain falls.

Keep your eyes on the Burlesque performers, you never know when a clue may fall.
