As you ma y recall\, earlier this month we traded in our longstanding Pico Blvd. dig s and upgraded to a brand new Miracle Mile HQ —much closer to the heart of LA’s film community (not to mention within literal spitting distance of t he fiberglass wooly mammoths\, stuck forever sinking into the prehistoric gurgle of the La Brea Tar Pits).

Not solely for the increased opportunities\, such a move presen ts within the pumpkin spice sector\, but also (on a serious note) for the Festival’s overall growth and ability to serve our city’s fervent communit y of independent film makers-and-supporters.\n\nThe Festival will be more accessible to LA-area film students—who have typically all fled home by th e time June rolls around\, as college kids are wont to do—as well as LA-ar ea film professionals who might otherwise be occupied during production-he avy months spanning late spring to early fall.\nL-R: ‘Ingrid Goes West’ di rector Matt Spicer\, Jennifer Cochis\, Josh Welsh\, Aubrey Plaza and Neon CEO Tom Quinn at the 2017 LA Film Festival\nBut really\, the more things c hange the more they stay the same.

County Makes Increased Investment in Partnership with Citi es in Fight Against Homelessness\n$3.8 Million in Measure H Funds to\nBols ter Vital Locally-Driven Efforts\nBuilding on their regional approach to t ackling homelessness\, the Los Angeles County Homeless Initiative and Unit ed Way of Greater Los Angeles announced the award of more than $3.8 millio n in Measure H funding to bolster the work of cities in implementing city- specific plans to combat and prevent homelessness. This funding award is a significant next step in strengthening the collaboration between the Coun ty and cities in the region\, which are united in their commitment to addr ess this complex humanitarian crisis. This new funding allocation aligns w ith the County’s partnership with cities to develop innovative solutions t o homelessness at the local level. This partnership\, which began with cit y participation in the development of the Homeless Initiative’s strategies in late 2016 and two subsequent city summits\, accelerated with the award of planning grants to cities in November 2017 to develop city-focused pla ns to address homelessness.\n\nIn September 2018\, L.A. County and United Way of Greater Los Angeles’ Home For Good Funders Collaborative issued a R equest for Proposals for city-specific projects in two key areas: Priority Area 1: to increase the supply of supportive and interim housing for peop le experiencing homelessness\; and Priority Area 2: to enhance the effecti veness of County service systems for those experiencing and/or at-risk of homelessness. 31 cities submitted applications\, of which 30 applicants ha d previously received a Homelessness Planning Grant and submitted a city-s pecific plan to address homelessness. Some cities submitted more than one application.\n\nMore than $3.8 million has been awarded at this time throu gh the RFP process\, to fully or partially fund 20 applications:\n\n 11 Pr iority 1 applications have been awarded up to $1\,731\,700. Projects inclu de feasibility studies around motel conversions\, modular housing\, ADUs\, inclusionary zoning and city-owned sites\; property acquisition for inter im and permanent housing\; and land use planning.\n 9 Priority 2 applicati ons have been awarded up to $2\,005\,564. Projects include funds for case managers\, housing navigators and homeless coordinators\; safe storage and shower services\; and employment training programs.\n\nCity applicants no t funded at this time\, as well as most cities whose applications are bein g partially funded\, will have an opportunity to resubmit proposals based on specific guidance and with the support of the County Homeless Initiativ e and United Way. For a full listing of the RFP submissions and awards\, c lick here\n\n“There’s no one-size-fits-all solution to ending the homeless ness crisis\,” said Board of Supervisors Chair Janice Hahn. “Partnering wi th our cities to fund local projects that address their unique challenges is going to be key to building lasting change. I am encouraged by how many cities are rising to the challenge and ready to be part of the solution. “\n\n“From Burbank to Culver City to Pomona to West Hollywood\, these city planning grants\, funded by Measure H\, showcase thoughtful private-publi c partnerships and tangible solutions\,” said Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thoma s. “As we seek more housing opportunities and service collaborations throu ghout Los Angeles County\, these investments and partnerships will propel our region forward to bring Everyone In!”\n\n“I am extremely proud of the high level of engagement that 5th District cities demonstrated throughout the City Planning Grant process\,” said Supervisor Kathryn Barger. “The Co unty will not be able to solve the crisis of homelessness on its own – our cities are integral partners in providing outreach\, supportive services\ , and housing to those in need. I’m eager to see how these localized solut ions to combat homelessness will move into implementation and am committed to continue partnering in this work alongside our cities.”\n\n“We know th at housing ends homelessness\, and cities uniquely hold the key to more or less housing being built\,” said Elise Buik\, President and CEO\, United Way of Greater Los Angeles. “While declarations on ending homelessness are an important step\, the proposals submitted here demonstrate a serious co mmitment to seeing those promises through. We could not be more excited fo r what’s to come.”\n\nAbout Los Angeles County Homeless Initiative\n\nThe L.A. County Homeless Initiative\, created by the L.A. County Board of Supe rvisors\, is charged with combating and preventing homelessness throughout the County. The Chief Executive Office/County Homeless Initiative provide s oversight and hands-on guidance to deploy the infusion of funds from the landmark Measure H sales tax for services and programs and maximize the a lignment and effectiveness of this unprecedented commitment.

L.A. County Makes Increased Investment in Partnership with Cities in Fight Aga inst Homelessness

\n

$3.8 Million in Measure H Funds to\nBolster Vital Locally -Driven Efforts

\nBuilding on their regional approach to tack ling homelessness\, the Los Angeles County Homeless Initiative and United Way of Greater Los Angeles announced the award of more than $3.8 million i n Measure H funding to bolster the work of cities in implementing city-spe cific plans to combat and prevent homelessness. This funding award is a si gnificant next step in strengthening the collaboration between the County and cities in the region\, which are united in their commitment to address this complex humanitarian crisis. This new funding allocation aligns with the County’s partnership with cities to develop innovative solutions to h omelessness at the local level. This partnership\, which began with city p articipation in the development of the Homeless Initiative’s strategies in late 2016 and two subsequent city summits\, accelerated with the award of planning grants to cities in November 2017 to develop city-focused plans to address homelessness.\n\nIn September 2018\, L.A. County and United Way of Greater Los Angeles’ Home For Good Funders Collaborative issued a Requ est for Proposals for city-specific projects in two key areas: Priority Ar ea 1: to increase the supply of supportive and interim housing for people experiencing homelessness\; and Priority Area 2: to enhance the effectiven ess of County service systems for those experiencing and/or at-risk of hom elessness. 31 cities submitted applications\, of which 30 applicants had p reviously received a Homelessness Planning Grant and submitted a city-spec ific plan to address homelessness. Some cities submitted more than one app lication.\n\nMore than $3.8 million has been awarded at this time through the RFP process\, to fully or partially fund 20 applications:\n
    \n
  • 11 Priority 1 applications have been awarded up to $1\,731\,700. Projects include feasibility studies around motel conversions\, modular housing\, A DUs\, inclusionary zoning and city-owned sites\; property acquisition for interim and permanent housing\; and land use planning.
    • \n
  • 9 Priori ty 2 applications have been awarded up to $2\,005\,564. Projects include f unds for case managers\, housing navigators and homeless coordinators\; sa fe storage and shower services\; and employment training programs.
    • \n< /ul>\nCity applicants not funded at this time\, as well as most cities who se applications are being partially funded\, will have an opportunity to r esubmit proposals based on specific guidance and with the support of the C ounty Homeless Initiative and United Way. For a full listing of the RFP su bmissions and awards\, click here\n\n“There’s no one-size-fits-all solution to e nding the homelessness crisis\,” said Board of Supervisors Chair Janice Ha hn. “Partnering with our cities to fund local projects that address their unique challenges is going to be key to building lasting change. I am enco uraged by how many cities are rising to the challenge and ready to be part of the solution. “\n\n“From Burbank to Culver City to Pomona to West Holl ywood\, these city planning grants\, funded by Measure H\, showcase though tful private-public partnerships and tangible solutions\,” said Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas. “As we seek more housing opportunities and service co llaborations throughout Los Angeles County\, these investments and partner ships will propel our region forward to bring Everyone In!”\n\n“I am extre mely proud of the high level of engagement that 5th District cities demons trated throughout the City Planning Grant process\,” said Supervisor Kathr yn Barger. “The County will not be able to solve the crisis of homelessnes s on its own – our cities are integral partners in providing outreach\, su pportive services\, and housing to those in need. I’m eager to see how the se localized solutions to combat homelessness will move into implementatio n and am committed to continue partnering in this work alongside our citie s.”\n\n“We know that housing ends homelessness\, and cities uniquely hold the key to more or less housing being built\,” said Elise Buik\, President and CEO\, United Way of Greater Los Angeles. “While declarations on endin g homelessness are an important step\, the proposals submitted here demons trate a serious commitment to seeing those promises through. We could not be more excited for what’s to come.”\n\nAbout Los Angeles County H omeless Initiative\n\nThe L.A. County Homeless Initiative\, creat ed by the L.A. County Board of Supervisors\, is charged with combating and preventing homelessness throughout the County. The Chief Executive Office /County Homeless Initiative provides oversight and hands-on guidance to de ploy the infusion of funds from the landmark Measure H sales tax for servi ces and programs and maximize the alignment and effectiveness of this unpr ecedented commitment.

The group h as been likened to the classic British bands Pentangle and Fairport Conven tion in that they blend classic folk music with rough-edged stories of tra gedy and fate\, all with orchestral arrangements sounding like chamber mus ic gone folk! The band has appeared at many premier venues and festivals o n the West Coast\, including Berkeley’s Freight & Salvage\, The Broad Stag e\, and the Hollywood Bowl\, among others. Their CD “White Swan” was relea sed in March of 2013 to critical acclaim from No Depression\, and FolkWork s\, among others\, and charted in the Top 50 on the Roots Music Report’s C ombined Internet and Terrestrial Folk Chart. Their new album “Not That Kin d of Girl” produced by Herb Pedersen was released in June 2015 and is enjo ying critical acclaim and radio airplay around the country. “If there were a word to describe this fine band\, it would be sophisticated. They draw influences from disparate sources to meld their sound. The level of musici anship is exemplary.… display a great range of prowess and work as a tight unit.” Bluegrass Unlimited. “…one of the finest and most original America na groups in California (or in the country for that matter).” No Depressio n. Augmenting their sound is the lush\, Celtic sounds of Rankin’s bouzouki \, the mountain sounds of Susie’s Appalachian dulcimer and traditional aut oharp\, with Mark Indictor’s virtuoso fiddling and Fred Sanders’ remarkabl e bass work rounding out the orchestral nature of this amazing quartet.\n \nSusie Glaze has been honored to be included on the newly-released Compas s Records tribute album “Dear Jean – Artists Celebrate Jean Ritchie” along side such artists as Judy Collins\, Pete Seeger\, Janis Ian\, Tim O’Brien\ , John McCutcheon\, Robin and Linda Williams and many more.\n\n“The band i s tight\, great picking\, and beautiful vocals and harmony.” KVMR\, Nevada City\, CA\n\n“One of the most beautiful voices in bluegrass and folk musi c today.” KPFK’s FolkScene\n“…with people like this to trust\, my music wi ll go on living\, and soaring. And so will I.” Jean Ritchie\n\nPlus on the same bill one of Americana’s finest singer/songwriters\, Rick Shea.\n\nPh oto by Rick Seyffert\n\nRick Shea cut his teeth in the bars and honky-tonk s of San Bernardino where he grew up. He’s since gone on to build a solid career for himself as a solo artist\, singer\, guitarist and songwriter. S hea is equally at home with an acoustic guitar and a set of ballads and st ories\, or with his worn old Telecaster burning through a set of his own s ongs and a few honky-tonk standards. With nine critically acclaimed albums he’s performed all over Southern California\, the West Coast and across t he country.\n\nHis songs reflect the folk\, country\, rock and Mexican inf luences he grew up with. As a songwriter Shea lets the songs find their ow n settings. “Starting out you might be hearing a song one way and then whe n its done realize it’s about something else altogether.” And on his songw riting influences Shea says\, “When I was younger Merle Haggard cast a lon g shadow\, but since then Dave Alvin\, Jim Ringer and a lot of other music has found its way in.”\n\nRick’s latest album Sweet Bernardine\, his nint h\, is a collection of his own stories and stories of California and beyon d. From the train journey he took as a brokenhearted young man in “Mexical i Train” to the harrowing tale of his great grandfather’s time in Civil wa r prisoner camps in “John Shea from Kenmare”\, Shea’s songs resonate deepl y.\n\nRecently Rick has toured Texas\, New England\, Ireland\, the U.K. an d Hawaii. “Playing live shows is what I’ve always done\, from the bars\, h onky-tonks and coffeehouses I started in to the shows I do now.

Award-winning vocalist Susie Glaze\, mandolinist Steve Rankin\, fiddle r Mark Indictor and bassist Fred Sanders are The Susie Glaze New Folk Ense mble\, the newest version of the acclaimed Los Angeles-based Americana gro up\, a lush new folk Americana fusion ensemble\, presenting gorgeous eclec tic blends of mountain folk and exciting new grassy and Celtic-inspired or iginals\, all with the remarkable voice of Susie Glaze. The group has been likened to the classic British bands Pentangle and Fairport Convention in that they blend classic folk music with rough-edged stories of tragedy an d fate\, all with orchestral arrangements sounding like chamber music gone folk! The band has appeared at many premier venues and festivals on the W est Coast\, including Berkeley’s Freight & Salvage\, The Broad Stage\, and the Hollywood Bowl\, among others. Their CD “White Swan” was released in March of 2013 to critical acclaim from No Depression\, and FolkWorks\, amo ng others\, and charted in the Top 50 on the Roots Music Report’s Combined Internet and Terrestrial Folk Chart. Their new album “Not That Kind of Gi rl” produced by Herb Pedersen was released in June 2015 and is enjoying cr itical acclaim and radio airplay around the country. “If there were a word to describe this fine band\, it would be sophisticated. They draw influen ces from disparate sources to meld their sound. The level of musicianship is exemplary.… display a great range of prowess and work as a tight unit.” Bluegrass Unlimited. “…one of the finest and most original Americana grou ps in California (or in the country for that matter).” No Depression. Augm enting their sound is the lush\, Celtic sounds of Rankin’s bouzouki\, the mountain sounds of Susie’s Appalachian dulcimer and traditional autoharp\, with Mark Indictor’s virtuoso fiddling and Fred Sanders’ remarkable bass work rounding out the orchestral nature of this amazing quartet.\n\nSusie Glaze has been honored to be included on the newly-released Compass Record s tribute album “Dear Jean – Artists Celebrate Jean Ritchie” alongside suc h artists as Judy Collins\, Pete Seeger\, Janis Ian\, Tim O’Brien\, John M cCutcheon\, Robin and Linda Williams and many more.\n\n“The band is tight\ , great picking\, and beautiful vocals and harmony.” KVMR\, Nevada City\, CA\n\n“One of the most beautiful voices in bluegrass and folk music today. ” KPFK’s FolkScene\n“…with people like this to trust\, my music will go on living\, and soaring. And so will I.” Jean Ritchie\n\nPlus on the same bi ll one of Americana’s finest singer/songwriters\, Rick Shea.\n\nPhoto by R ick Seyffert\n\nRick Shea cut his teeth in the bars and honky-t onks of San Bernardino where he grew up. He’s since gone on to build a sol id career for himself as a solo artist\, singer\, guitarist and songwriter . Shea is equally at home with an acoustic guitar and a set of ballads and stories\, or with his worn old Telecaster burning through a set of his ow n songs and a few honky-tonk standards. With nine critically acclaimed alb ums he’s performed all over Southern California\, the West Coast and acros s the country.\n\nHis songs reflect the folk\, country\, rock and Mexican influences he grew up with. As a songwriter Shea lets the songs find their own settings. “Starting out you might be hearing a song one way and then when its done realize it’s about something else altogether.” And on his so ngwriting influences Shea says\, “When I was younger Merle Haggard cast a long shadow\, but since then Dave Alvin\, Jim Ringer and a lot of other mu sic has found its way in.”\n\nRick’s latest album Sweet Bernardine\, his n inth\, is a collection of his own stories and stories of California and be yond. From the train journey he took as a brokenhearted young man in “Mexi cali Train” to the harrowing tale of his great grandfather’s time in Civil war prisoner camps in “John Shea from Kenmare”\, Shea’s songs resonate de eply.\n\nRecently Rick has toured Texas\, New England\, Ireland\, the U.K. and Hawaii. “Playing live shows is what I’ve always done\, from the bars\ , honky-tonks and coffeehouses I started in to the shows I do now. It’s a chance for me to meet people and see them connect with the songs\, that’s really what it’s all about.”\n\n“If your tastes run toward hard working\, literate\, back 40 folkies like Tom Russell\, Chuck Pyle\, Jimmie Dale Gil more and others like that\, Shea is sure to be another that you’re going t o dig. With a very personal edge to his writing and singing\, this is clas sic folkie/troubadour stuff that cuts right to the chase and delivers move s that others can only turn into clichés. Check it out\, it’s the real dea l”. – Chris Spector MIDWEST RECORD\n\n“a hauntingly nostalgic vocalist\, i mperative guitarist and literate\, detail-rich songwriter\, do yourself a favor”.\n– Gary von Tersch\, Sing Out\n\n

A guitarist with an u pbeat\, finger-poppin’ picking style he learned at the elbows of bluesmast ers Sam ‘Lightnin’ Hopkins\, Mance Lipscomb\, Mississippi Fred MacDowell\, and others. Yet\, Bernie Pearl is no hidebound traditionalist. As music c ritics and aficionados have said for years\, he is a craftsman who packs h is songs with melodic interpretations that are new and personal each time he picks up his vintage Martin or National. To hear him tell it\, “I’m not a retro player. I’m playing real blues for right now.”\n\nBernie\, who gr ew up in the Los Angeles community of Boyle Heights\, took up the guitar i n the 1950’s. Later\, at his brother’s legendary blues showcase\, the Ash Grove\, he met\, studied with\, and often performed with greats like Hopki ns\, Lipscomb\, and MacDowell as well as with Freddie King\, Albert Collin s\, and Big Mama Thornton. Bernie played duets with John Lee Hooker at Ger de’s Folk City in Greenwich Village. “They were my teachers\,” he says\, “ and it wasn’t just music they were teaching. If you took Mance or Lightnin ’ out fishing you got philosophy\, history\, and lessons in life”.\n\nArme d with the teachings of those and other blues icons\, Bernie raises the ro of with dazzling guitar solos – acoustic and electric – and with his own B ernie Pearl Blues Band\, which has backed the likes of B.B. King\, Stevie Ray Vaughan\, Willie Dixon\, and Big Joe Turner. The Bernie Pearl Blues Ba nd has been a popular draw at many of Southern California’s best-known mus ical haunts: the House of Blues\, California Plaza Presents\, the Blue Caf é\, Disney’s California Adventure\, and the Playboy Pasadena Community Jaz z Festival. Bernie has appeared at major Festivals in Chicago\, The Pocono s\, Vancouver\, Portland\, and Long Beach\, as well as in Europe.\n\nA lif e-long blues evangelist\, Bernie began broadcasting Nothin’ But the Blues on KPPC FM in 1968\, making him L.A.’s first all-blues FM disc jockey. He went on to host the blues on KLON and KCRW from 1980-92\, helping found th e Long Beach Blues Festival along the way.\n\nHis 15-year relationship wit h Louisiana blues man Harmonica Fats produced three outstanding CDs\, with the unplugged Two Heads Are Better and Blow\, Fat Daddy\, Blow\, each gar nering W.C. Handy nominations in the mid-1990’s. Tonight Pearl shares the stage with bassist/producer Mike Barry who is a perfect match to set the g roove for the tunes they perform.\n\nBernie applied his studio skills as a producer and songwriter-arranger of jazz-rocking violin pioneer Papa John Creach’s critically-acclaimed 1992 Papa Blues CD (Bee Bump BBCD 03).\n\nA s president of Big Time Blues Productions\, Pearl was named national “Blue s Promoter of the Year” by the Blues Foundation in 1987\, and he continues to book\, promote\, advertise\, and oversee blues acts at annual events s uch as the Big Time Blues Festival and the Blues Harmonica Blowdown. He ha s taught blues history and blues guitar courses at several area universiti es\, and continues to teach at Cal State Long Beach\, as well as privately .\n\nHis first solo CD\, released in August 2002\, was recorded in an all- acoustic concert at Culver City’s Boulevard Music and is appropriately tit led Bernie Pearl Live From Boulevard Music (Major Label ML 011-CD).\n\nFor music lovers tired of market-tested commercial radio and industry-buffed overnight phenoms\, Pearl provides virtuosity\, country wisdom\, a warm vo ice\, and the kind of fingerpicking and slide guitar work that still gets juke-joints jumping.\n\n“…Pearl’s music and voice evoke the unpretentious\ , truth-telling qualities of the blues. The sparse arrangements that grace this 15-song set only heighten the soulful and spiritual nature of the mu sic. Pearl’s guitar virtuosity is evident\, whether he’s playing lead\, rh ythm\, or slide guitar…his version of (Son House’s) Shetland Pony Blues wo uld make the old master proud”\n\nStephen A. King\, Living Blues Magazine \n\n“Making blues music draws from someplace deep\,” he says. “I’m lucky. It’s what I do.”\n\nhttp://www.berniepearl.com DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20190427T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20190427T220000 LOCATION:Boulevard Music @ 4316 Sepulveda Blvd Culver City\, CA 90230 SEQUENCE:0 SUMMARY:BERNIE PEARL & MIKE BARRY URL:https://culvercitycatalyst.co/event/bernie-pearl-mike-barry/ X-COST-TYPE:free X-WP-IMAGES-URL:thumbnail\;https://secureservercdn.net/198.71.190.232/w8q.d a6.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Bernie-Pearl-at-BLVD3-150x15 0.jpg\;150\;150\;1\,medium\;https://secureservercdn.net/198.71.190.232/w8q .da6.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Bernie-Pearl-at-BLVD3-300x 200.jpg\;300\;200\;1\,large\;https://secureservercdn.net/198.71.190.232/w8 q.da6.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Bernie-Pearl-at-BLVD3.jpg ?time=1570215874\;576\;384\; X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n

If you took Mance or Lightnin’ out fishing you got philos ophy\, history\, and lessons in life”.\n\nArmed with the teachings of thos e and other blues icons\, Bernie raises the roof with dazzling guitar solo s – acoustic and electric – and with his own Bernie Pearl Blues Band\, whi ch has backed the likes of B.B. King\, Stevie Ray Vaughan\, Willie Dixon\, and Big Joe Turner. The Bernie Pearl Blues Band has been a popular draw a t many of Southern California’s best-known musical haunts: the House of Bl ues\, California Plaza Presents\, the Blue Café\, Disney’s California Adve nture\, and the Playboy Pasadena Community Jazz Festival. Bernie has appea red at major Festivals in Chicago\, The Poconos\, Vancouver\, Portland\, a nd Long Beach\, as well as in Europe.\n\nA life-long blues evangelist\, Be rnie began broadcasting Nothin’ But the Blues on KPPC FM in 1968\, making him L.A.’s first all-blues FM disc jockey. He went on to host the blues on KLON and KCRW from 1980-92\, helping found the Long Beach Blues Festival along the way.\n\nHis 15-year relationship with Louisiana blues man Harmon ica Fats produced three outstanding CDs\, with the unplugged Two Heads Are Better and Blow\, Fat Daddy\, Blow\, each garnering W.C. Handy nomination s in the mid-1990’s. Tonight Pearl shares the stage with bassist/producer Mike Barry who is a perfect match to set the groove for the tunes they per form.\n\nBernie applied his studio skills as a producer and songwriter-arr anger of jazz-rocking violin pioneer Papa John Creach’s critically-acclaim ed 1992 Papa Blues CD (Bee Bump BBCD 03).\n\nAs president of Big Time Blue s Productions\, Pearl was named national “Blues Promoter of the Year” by t he Blues Foundation in 1987\, and he continues to book\, promote\, adverti se\, and oversee blues acts at annual events such as the Big Time Blues Fe stival and the Blues Harmonica Blowdown. He has taught blues history and b lues guitar courses at several area universities\, and continues to teach at Cal State Long Beach\, as well as privately.\n\nHis first solo CD\, rel eased in August 2002\, was recorded in an all-acoustic concert at Culver C ity’s Boulevard Music and is appropriately titled Bernie Pearl Live From B oulevard Music (Major Label ML 011-CD).\n\nFor music lovers tired of marke t-tested commercial radio and industry-buffed overnight phenoms\, Pearl pr ovides virtuosity\, country wisdom\, a warm voice\, and the kind of finger picking and slide guitar work that still gets juke-joints jumping.\n\n“…Pe arl’s music and voice evoke the unpretentious\, truth-telling qualities of the blues. The sparse arrangements that grace this 15-song set only heigh ten the soulful and spiritual nature of the music. Pearl’s guitar virtuosi ty is evident\, whether he’s playing lead\, rhythm\, or slide guitar…his v ersion of (Son House’s) Shetland Pony Blues would make the old master prou d”\n\nStephen A. King\, Living Blues Magazine\n\n“Making blues music draws from someplace deep\,” he says. “I’m lucky. It’s what I do.”\n\nhttp://ww w.berniepearl.com X-TAGS;LANGUAGE=en-US:Bernie Pearl\,Lightnin’ Hopkins\,Mance Lipscomb\,Mike Barry\,Mississippi Fred MacDowell END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:ai1ec-81638@culvercitycatalyst.co DTSTAMP:20191015T220447Z CATEGORIES;LANGUAGE=en-US:Local Events CONTACT:(310) 398-2583\; info@boulevardmusic.com\; https://www.boulevardmus ic.com/event/variety-night-with-special-guest-2/ DESCRIPTION:Variety Night (Hosted by that Mandell guy since 1974) presents our special guest singer/songwriter Grinnell with his fine song interpreta tions\, plus as always our talented sign-ups to fill out the bill.

Welcome to opening night of The Murder at Haversha m Manor\, where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. W ith an unconscious leading lady\, a corpse that can’t play dead\, and acto rs who trip over everything (including their lines)\, it’s tons of fun for all ages (HuffPost) and comic gold! (Variety)—sure to bring down the hous e!\n
