SUMMARY:Mustard's Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Watch on The Ark’s Youtube channel \nMustard’s Retreat has always sung the songs they enjoyed and cared about\, regardless of the trends of the music industry and pop culture. They are committed to simply being themselves\, not chasing fame or brass rings\, while delighting in and connecting with their audiences as if they were family. The honesty of what they present onstage and the extensive body of outstanding original songs and recordings all contribute to a fiercely loyal audience that continues to grow. “Music to cure what ails you” was how one reviewer in the 1970s described them\, and that is as true now as it was then. \nThey’ve traveled more than a million miles and performed more than 6\,000 shows\, from pig roasts and pool parties to Lincoln Center Out of Doors\, The Barns at Wolftrap and the Kennedy’s Center’s Millennium Stage. \nTheir performances are always joyful and uplifting\, as well as intelligent\, thought provoking and insightful. They’ve recently begun referring to their career and touring as “Defiantly Hopeful.” In part due to their long career\, but more as a statement about what the music has meant to them. “Folk music is\, at its heart\, defiantly hopeful!” Tamulevich says. “We came of age in the 60s\, at the confluence of Pete Seeger\, Peter\, Paul & Mary\, Bob Dylan and the singer/songwriter revolution. We care much more about what we do and stand for and finding that common ground with our audiences\, than fame or money: this is our community of choice\, and we consider ourselves so fortunate to be here.” \nArk Family Room shows are free and streamed to The Ark’s Facebook page. Donations to the “virtual tip jar” during shows support both The Ark and the participating artists.

SUMMARY:Robert Jones & Matt Watroba
DESCRIPTION:JOIN THE LIVESTREAM \nEver since their first meeting\, over thirty years ago\, Robert Jones and Matt Watroba have been musical partners.  Their relationship started when they hosted back to back\, radio shows on WDET-FM\, Detroit.  Later on they started performing together and\, in doing so\, they discovered a friendship based in mutual respect and a love for traditional American music.  Now\, Matt and Robert literally travel the nation extolling the virtues of “Music That Matters”.\nFor Matt and Robert\, American Roots Music (Folk\, Blues\, Spirituals\, Work Songs\, Chants\, etc.) is music that matters.  This is the music that America and the world have in common.  It is music that reflects history\, social change\, migration\, hopes and dreams.  It is music that is rich and diverse\, direct and powerful.  As talented as they are individually\, Matt and Robert together form a synergy that hard to describe.  Together\, they formed a non-profit company called Common Chords to connect communities through music and the arts.

SUMMARY:Rhiannon Giddens with Francesco Turrisi
DESCRIPTION:Please Note: Proof of Vaccination or a negative COVID test taken within 72 hours is required for admission at the Michigan Theater. Masks are required of all attendees. By purchasing a ticket you agree that you and your guests will comply with all laws\, orders\, ordinances\, regulations and health and safety guidance adopted by the State of Michigan\, the County of Washtenaw and The Ark\, including any guidelines in place at the time of the show. Attendees who do not comply will be asked to leave. \nCOVID-19 FAQ \nRhiannon Giddens uses her art to excavate the past and reveal bold truths about our present. A MacArthur “Genius Grant” recipient\, Giddens co-founded the Grammy Award-winning Carolina Chocolate Drops\, and she has been nominated for six additional Grammys for her work as a soloist and collaborator. She was most recently nominated for her collaboration with multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi\, there is no Other (2019). \nGiddens’s latest album\, They’re Calling Me Home\, is a twelve-track album\, recorded with Turrisi in Ireland during the recent lockdown; it speaks of the longing for the comfort of home as well as the metaphorical “call home” of death\, which has been a tragic reality for so many during the COVID-19 crisis.
