What do Maynard Ferguson, Santana, Barbra Streisand, Frank Zappa, Tool, Jeff Beck, and Rush all have in common? Their music was all played and discussed in our very first Tuesday Night Vinyl.
Tuesday Night Vinyl Recap
Thank you to everyone who turned out for the inaugural Tuesday Night Vinyl. As one guest said, “this is like book club, but for records.” Exactly right. That was precisely the intent and as soon as our group gathered at the studio tonight, we all felt that.
This program is about connectedness. It is about how music that has meant something personal to us can be communicated to other people.
Thank You!
This past week saw a lot of programming announcements. Looking back on 2019, a lot of good has happened. So today is a good time to say thank you to the students, their families, our friends and business partners who have believed in this studio and what it is striving to accomplish.
There are many people in the grooveKSQ community to be grateful for:
grooveKSQ Mission Statement 2020
2019 has been a tremendous year. Two fantastic student recitals, a livestream series (grooveLIVE), many, many lessons taught, and our students showed a lot of growth.
Much more programming will unfold in this upcoming year - right now there are about thirty six (36!!) events planned for 2020. The next phrase for grooveKSQ is to elevate the musical arts landscape in Kennett and beyond.
Experienced Players Welcome…
GrooveLIVE Season 2!
One of the primary functions of grooveKSQ is to support independent musicians and artists. We are pleased to announce the first two performers of the second season grooveLIVE, which is a high quality video stream you can watch right here at the website, on our Facebook page, or on our YouTube channel.
Season Two of grooveLIVE will occur on the following dates:
January 27, 2020
February 10, 2020
February 24, 2020
March 10, 2020
March 22, 2020
April 6, 2020
A couple of adjustments from the pilot episodes we ran last year: the livestreams are moved to Monday nights, right before Monday Night Football, with a 7:30pm start and a 30 minute program. You’ll notice that the second event in March falls on Sunday, March 22, 2020. There will be much more detail about that event as we get closer. Expect an announcement right after Christmas 2019.
Our first two performers are both excellent:
