SUMMARY:Summer Sounds at The Ann Arbor Art Fair
DESCRIPTION:Due to the current air quality advisory\, our artists are unable to perform this evening.  We plan to be back at the Stage on Main on Saturday evening. \n  \nWe are excited to once again partner with the Ann Arbor Summer Art Fair to bring live music each evening of the art fairs to the Stage on Main at the corner of Main and William in the Palio lot. Stop by and join one of our favorite street parties of the year! \nTHE RUPPLE BROTHERS\n6pm \nThe Rupple Brothers are a psychedelic folk ensemble who combine a love for family\, music\, life\, and improvisation to create a musical space unlike any other. Born unto song\, brothers Evan and Cole\, and an ever expanding cast of soul brothers\, traverse the entire spectrum of sound and space; each being proficient in multiple ways of musical strangeness\, while bringing a positive and powerful family message with their brand of wild folk. They have carved themselves out a respected place amongst the Michigan music scene\, throwing their own annual grassroots festival Handmade Music Festival in their home of Chesaning\, opening for bands like The Way Down Wanderers\, Chirp\, The Mallett Brothers Band\, Tejon Street Corner Thieves\, Good Old War\, opening up for White Denim at Ann Arbor’s Sonic Lunch\, winning the Review Award for “Best Duo”\, and playing top tier venues and festivals across the state. They plan to carry their stories of song to the furthest reaches of the universe. \nBOBBY ALU\n7:30pm \nIf you ask Byron Bay’s Bobby Alu what his music sounds like\, he’ll tell you how he hopes it makes you feel: like you have your favorite drink in hand\, sipping as the sun sets on a balmy evening that’s laden with the promise of adventure. In an ideal world\, he’d follow summer around the earth\, in his endless quest to nail that feeling in his songs. \nFor Bobby it’s all about letting the music decide where it takes you – creatively and physically – and following the threads of curiosity large\, small and often strange. It’s playing ukulele with old friends at the local market in exchange for a box of vegetables\, because how weird is it to improvise along to people buying bananas at 7am on a Tuesday? It’s going to Ghana with just a hunch and a WhatsApp number to track down the rhythms that lit up his heart. It’s touring the world for five years as Xavier Rudd’s percussionist\, learning how to be in service to the vibe of a room\, and how to make the jump to being an international performer in his own right. It’s honoring his Samoan heritage through sharing the stage and releasing an EP with his mother to connect with the language of her homeland. Always\, it’s about being open to discovery: if you choose music\, you choose it all.

SUMMARY:John Cowan Trio
DESCRIPTION:Due to unforeseen circumstances John Cowan Trio will no longer be able to perform\, John is dealing with some non life-threatening health issues. We hope to reschedule next year. Tickets have been refunded from original point of purchase. \nWhen John Cowan and Luke Bulla perform together\, their shows reflect 25 years of shared history\, musical trust\, and genuine friendship. Blending New Grass Revival (and more) favorites with old and new originals\, they pair masterful picking\, rich harmony\, and stories that are heartfelt\, funny\, and hard-earned. Cowan calls Bulla “one of the most beautiful gifts” of his long musical life\, while Bulla\, inspired by Cowan since his youth\, considers sharing the stage a “dream come true” and a source of “immense gratitude and honor.” Together\, they deliver music rooted in gratitude\, joy\, and deep mutual respect. This evening they perform as a trio with Sam Leslie.
