Solo Violin Sounds Like a Band

Chances are you’ve never heard a violin like this before. Dixon’s Violin improvises multiple rhythmic and melodic violin lines atop chords and rhythms using a looping system the eponymous Dixon developed for his five-string electric violin. A one-time computer science wiz, he left the corporate world to play violin, but none of that Bach or Beethoven for him. Instead, he plays percussion, power chords, and improvises over it all in real time. His popularity resulted in three TED talks/performances, shows at Burning Man, radio, TV, and film appearances, and a stop at this year’s Blissfest.

The Eighties Redux at Interlochen

Those of a certain age well remember any number of songs of the ’80s: “Jessie’s Girl,” “Everytime You Go Away,” “Dance Hall Days,” for example. Those tunes will get plenty of love at the I Want My 80s night. Nic Feldman of Wang Chung says the band will be playing all its hits, as will his pal Paul Young and headliner Rick Springfield. Fun tonight? No doubt. “I had the chords and chorus and idea. I thought he would hate it,” he says of partner Jack Hues’s reaction to what became the band’s anthem, “Everybody Have Fun.” Not only did Hues like it—so did the rest of the world. You can Wang Chung for yourself at Kresge Auditorium June 25.

Ambrosia Returns to Little River

Ambrosia’s hits “How Much I Feel” and “You’re the Only Woman” fit neatly into the soft rock oeuvre. Yet bassist and vocalist Joe Puerta notes the band was initially considered America’s answer to Yes and Genesis. “We were originally part prog,” he says, including contributing to the Alan Parsons Project’s concept albums. With the resurgent interest in yacht rock, the band is more in demand than ever, playing its big hits alongside progressive tracks. The band performs Aug. 1 at Little River Casino in Manistee.

Collective Soul Rocks Cherry Festival 

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of its first major-label album, Collective Soul released Here to Eternity a year ago. After recording at Elvis Presley’s estate in Palm Springs—the only artist besides the King to do so—the alt-rock band says Presley’s influence seeped into the album. Consequence.net described the single “Mother’s Love” as sporting the band’s signature pop hooks around a thick blues guitar lick. The band will support Cheap Trick June 29 at the National Cherry Festival.

Jazz Guitarist Plays Mountainside

With Westside Chill, Carolina-by-way-of-New-York guitarist Joe Taylor snagged his first Grammy nomination. His jazz stylings have caught the ear of various producers, as he’s contributed to TV shows, films, and theater, including Phantom and Cats on Broadway. He’s bringing his quartet to northern Michigan, with the revival of the popular Music on the Mountain series at The Homestead. He’ll be including cuts from his upcoming recording Last Boat Home, which will be released just prior to his show here.
