This year, we’re checking in with many of those same arts organizations to find out what is in the offing this fall for Atlantans interested in the arts, given the new reality imposed by the coronavirus pandemic. In addition to asking, “What are some of the wonderful things to see, hear and experience?,” we had to ask, “Which galleries, museums, performance venues and festivals are still operating and what health and safety measures are in place to minimize the chances of patrons getting sick?” The impact of coronavirus on the arts community has been devastating. We lost Mammal Gallery and The Bakery, two vital DIY spaces. Most galleries that closed down in March or on April 2, when Georgia was put under a stay-at-home order, remain closed or, in cases like the MINT, Marcia Wood Gallery and the Hammonds House Museum, are accessible by appointment only. Major institutions, such as the High Museum, The Atlanta Opera, Atlanta Ballet, Atlanta Symphony and the Alliance Theater, were compelled to cancel their seasons and postpone productions until the fall or into 2021. No arts organization, performance space or enterprise, regardless of size or mission, was unaffected. As of late July, with Georgia trending in all the wrong directions regarding COVID-19 cases, deaths and hospital beds available for treating patients, it’s easy to be pessimistic about the near-term prospects for a return to “normal.” The more productive approach is to focus on what the new normal looks like and plan accordingly, which is where the good news comes in. By and large, the arts community has responded to the pandemic with exemplary caution, responsible leadership, creative resourcefulness and admirable resolve. Practically speaking, the new normal is packed with online concerts, educational programming, virtual gallery tours and a reconsideration of what “live” performance gatherings will look and feel like going forward. We are in the earliest days of a transformative era. The fall arts season is shaping up to be a ground-breaking experiment in real-time. Unprecedented conditions call for innovative strategies along with the acknowledgement that some ideas will fail and some results will be unpleasant. Regardless, a non-scientific survey of the arts community reveals an undiminished spirit and a commitment to persevere, to make the most and best with available tools, to adapt and evolve. Mother Nature being the mother of all invention incubators, nothing spurs the artistic imagination like a deadly viral contagion. Just look at the work of Hieronymus Bosch, even if viewing hours are strictly limited and masks are required. !!Fall Arts 2020 " ["tracker_field_contentWikiPage_raw"]=> string(4090) "In August of 2019, ''Creative Loafing'' published a ((fall arts preview 2019|preview guide)) to static and performance arts events scheduled for the fall season.

In May, the National Independent Venue Association (NIVA) conducted a poll of its members, which currently includes more than 2,000 members in all 50 states. The poll revealed that, unless some sort of federal relief aid is provided within six months, 90 percent of the country’s live music venues will go out of business permanently. Several venues around the country have already closed down in recent months, including The Metro in Chicago and, closer to home, The Vista Room in Decatur. For many, the bipartisan Reviving the Economy Sustainably Towards a Recovery in Twenty-twenty (RESTART ) Act, introduced by Senators Michael Bennet (D-Colorado) and Todd Young (R-Indiana), has offered a glimmer of hope. If passed, the RESTART Act will expand upon the Paycheck Protection Program to work for businesses that have lost revenue while remaining closed as a measure to prevent the spread of COVID-19. But if the RESTART Act does not pass before Congress goes into recess in August, countless more music venues will likely be forced to shutter their doors forever. On the heels of the RESTART Act, U.S. Senators John Cornyn (R-Texas) and Amy Klobuchar (D-Minnesota) have introduced their co-sponsored, and possibly more helpful, bill to provide relief for venues struggling to survive during the COVID-19 pandemic. The new bill, dubbed the Save Our Stages Act, takes its name from NIVA’s ongoing social media campaign, turning #SaveOurStages into possible legislation. According to a July 22 press release issued by NIVA, if passed, the Save Our Stages bill will: “provide Small Business Administration grants for independent live music venue operators affected by COVID-19 stay-at-home orders. These grants would provide at least six months of financial support to keep venues afloat, pay employees, and preserve a critical economic sector for communities across America.” The Save Our Stages Act is also designed to keep a tighter focus on music venues, promoters, and staff, whereas RESTART was created with a broader definition of the affected businesses that it covers. Even more important, however, is that Save Our Stages functions as a grant program rather than a loan program — with certain payback components built in. NIVA is showing support for both bills. The July 22 press release goes on to explain that, if passed, the Save Our Stages Act will establish, among other things, a $10 billion grant program for venue operators, promoters, and staff. Eligible recipients would receive grants equal to the lesser of either 45 percent of gross revenue from 2019 or $12 million. The bill also includes the possibility of supplemental grants in the future if funding continues to remain available and venues continue to struggle as a result of COVID-19-related financial losses. The Save Our Stages bill was introduced to the Senate on July 22, and made its way into the House on July 23. Tomorrow, Tuesday, August 4, is the day for action, "our final push," as Rival Entertainment announced in a press release Monday afternoon. Congress will make decisions this week that determine the fate of thousands of independent venues, promoters and businesses in the ecosystem of live music. While our businesses are closed and it's unsafe to gather together, we need our Senator's support for legislation that keeps businesses afloat and workers' bills paid!

On July 24, Rep. Ron Kind (D-Wisconsin) and Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pennsylvania) introduced yet another piece of legislation aimed at protecting independent music and entertainment venues through the COVID-19 crisis. The Entertainments New Credit Opportunity for Relief & Economic Sustainability (ENCORES) Act allows live music venues to recoup some of the losses they’ve accrued over ticket refunds from canceled events. If passed, the Bill will provide a 50-percent tax credit for refunded tickets. Like RESTART, ENCORES targets a broader base of affected business including events that also promote and host live comedy, theatrical productions, and sporting events. It also stipulates that to get the credit, eligible businesses must have 500 or fewer eligible employees, and have offered vouchers to customers first, and customers opted for a refund. In the meantime, venues such as Center Stage and the Masquerade are in the process of outfitting their live music rooms to begin hosting live-streaming performances, while Atlanta’s City Winery is “hitting the pause button,” as CEO and founder Michael Dorf announced in a press release, adding he hopes the closing will only be “temporary.” Keep an eye out here for more details and announcements regarding Atlanta clubs and music venues as they become available. In hardcore news ... Atlanta’s rising seven-piece post-post-hardcore outfit The Callous Daoboys recently announced that the group has signed on with the Long Island, New York-based record label Modern Static Records to release a new full-length in 2021. It is, according to an email from the group, “the most ambitious thing we have ever written.” The album’s title has not yet been revealed. Look for new singles to materialize this winter, and the new album to arrive sometime in March or April. In the meantime, the Daoboys’ 2019 debut album Die on Mars is still blowing minds with its maze of jagged and controlled chaos. Slow Fire Pistol also recently made a big jump to Run for Cover Records to release a split 7-inch with Austin’s Portrayal of Guilt. For their side of the split single, Slow Fire Pistol’s singer and guitar player Hank Pratt, guitarist Ben Jordan, bass player Connor McFall, and drummer Blake Hall crafted a five-minute miniature epic that traverses a broad swath of punk, hardcore, post-punk, and early screamo hallmarks, titled “Heart of Discernment.” The song takes shape as a loud and poignant cry for compassion amid a current social and political climate that grows increasingly hostile by the hour. It’s also a searing compliment to Portrayal of Guilt’s “The End of Man Will Bring Peace to This Earth” on the record’s flipside. Clocking in at right around 16 minutes, Playytime’s brand new 7-song EP, titled The Fun Never Ends, is a crawling, heavy-as-hell dose of raw, barreling hardcore that’s exemplified by the album’s title track, and counterweighted by the slow-burning introspection of the closing number, “Windlike (ft. Stemlines).” In other new releases news ... St. Louis rapper Smino recently teamed up with Dreamville’s J.I.D and producer Kenny Beats for a spacious and meditative post-trap banger, titled “Baguetti.” This new cut falls on the heels of Smino being featured on the Dreamville posse cut, “Sacrifices,” with J. Cole, Saba, and Earthgang, which arrived earlier this year. Smino also managed to land a guest spot on Chance the Rapper’s song, “Eternal,” from the album The Big Day, which peaked at #25 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100. On “Baguetti,” J.I.D brings the song to a close with his own take on a TED Talk-style breakdown of his music industry credentials. Check it out on Spotify. The Young Antiques rolled out a video for the song “Goin’ Home,” featuring songwriter and Atlanta expat Kelly Hogan, whose musical repertoire includes a vast body of solo recordings, as well as performing with the Jody Grind, the Rock*A*Teens, Decemberists, and Neko Case. The social distance-friendly video was directed by Atlanta-based photographer and filmmaker Jeff Shipman__, and premiered via The Big Take Over in July. The song is taken from the Young Antiques’ latest album, Another Risk of the Heart. The album is out now via Southern Lovers Recording Co. And last, but not least, on July 24, singer and songwriter Eliot Bronson released his latest album, Empty Spaces. The album’s first single, “Let Me Go,” which premiered via Rolling Stone Country, is just a glimpse of the album’s larger conceptual leanings, steeped in visions of lust, loss, betrayal, romance, and more. —CL— Send local music news items to chad.radford at creativeloafing.com.__" ["tracker_field_contentWikiPage_raw"]=> string(9820) "Live music venues across the country — large and small — are feeling the pressure of stay-at-home orders, as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic approaches the six-month mark.

Stemlines).” __In other new releases news ...__ St. Louis rapper Smino recently teamed up with Dreamville’s __J.I.D__ and producer __Kenny Beats__ for a spacious and meditative post-trap banger, titled “Baguetti.” This new cut falls on the heels of Smino being featured on the Dreamville posse cut, “Sacrifices,” with J. Cole, Saba, and Earthgang, which arrived earlier this year. Smino also managed to land a guest spot on Chance the Rapper’s song, “Eternal,” from the album ''The Big Day'', which peaked at #25 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100. On “Baguetti,” J.I.D brings the song to a close with his own take on a TED Talk-style breakdown of his music industry credentials. Check it out on Spotify. __The Young Antiques rolled out a video for the song “Goin’ Home,” featuring songwriter and Atlanta expat Kelly Hogan, whose musical repertoire includes a vast body of solo recordings, as well as performing with the Jody Grind, the Rock*A*Teens, Decemberists, and Neko Case. The social distance-friendly video was directed by Atlanta-based photographer and filmmaker __Jeff Shipman__, and premiered via ''The Big Take Over'' in July. The song is taken from the Young Antiques’ latest album, ''Another Risk of the Heart''. The album is out now via Southern Lovers Recording Co. And last, but not least, on July 24, singer and songwriter __Eliot Bronson__ released his latest album, ''Empty Spaces''. The album’s first single, “Let Me Go,” which premiered via ''Rolling Stone Country'', is just a glimpse of the album’s larger conceptual leanings, steeped in visions of lust, loss, betrayal, romance, and more. __—CL—__ Send local music news items to chad.radford@creativeloafing.com.__" ["tracker_field_contentWikiPage_creation_date"]=> string(25) "2020-08-03T20:25:01+00:00" ["tracker_field_contentWikiPage_modification_date"]=> string(25) "2020-08-05T21:35:54+00:00" ["tracker_field_contentWikiPage_freshness_days"]=> int(652) ["tracker_field_photos"]=> string(5) "32327" ["tracker_field_photos_names"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(15) "Callous Daoboys" } ["tracker_field_photos_filenames"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "Callous_Daoboys.jpg" } ["tracker_field_photos_filetypes"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(10) "image/jpeg" } ["tracker_field_photos_text"]=> string(15) "Callous Daoboys" ["tracker_field_contentPhotoCredit"]=> string(14) "Courtney Breen" ["tracker_field_contentPhotoTitle"]=> string(88) "THE CALLOUS DAOBOYS: The group’s sophomore album is due out via Modern Static Records."

2020-08-03T20:05:25+00:00 Live music venues across the country — large and small — are feeling the pressure of stay-at-home orders, as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic approaches the six-month mark. In May, the National Independent Venue Association (NIVA) conducted a poll of its members, which currently includes more than 2,000 members in all 50 states. The poll revealed that, unless some sort of federal relief aid is provided within six months, 90 percent of the country’s live music venues will go out of business permanently. Several venues around the country have already closed down in recent months, including The Metro in Chicago and, closer to home, The Vista Room in Decatur. For many, the bipartisan Reviving the Economy Sustainably Towards a Recovery in Twenty-twenty (RESTART ) Act, introduced by Senators Michael Bennet (D-Colorado) and Todd Young (R-Indiana), has offered a glimmer of hope. If passed, the RESTART Act will expand upon the Paycheck Protection Program to work for businesses that have lost revenue while remaining closed as a measure to prevent the spread of COVID-19. But if the RESTART Act does not pass before Congress goes into recess in August, countless more music venues will likely be forced to shutter their doors forever. On the heels of the RESTART Act, U.S. Senators John Cornyn (R-Texas) and Amy Klobuchar (D-Minnesota) have introduced their co-sponsored, and possibly more helpful, bill to provide relief for venues struggling to survive during the COVID-19 pandemic. The new bill, dubbed the Save Our Stages Act, takes its name from NIVA’s ongoing social media campaign, turning #SaveOurStages into possible legislation. According to a July 22 press release issued by NIVA, if passed, the Save Our Stages bill will: “provide Small Business Administration grants for independent live music venue operators affected by COVID-19 stay-at-home orders. These grants would provide at least six months of financial support to keep venues afloat, pay employees, and preserve a critical economic sector for communities across America.” The Save Our Stages Act is also designed to keep a tighter focus on music venues, promoters, and staff, whereas RESTART was created with a broader definition of the affected businesses that it covers. Even more important, however, is that Save Our Stages functions as a grant program rather than a loan program — with certain payback components built in. NIVA is showing support for both bills. The July 22 press release goes on to explain that, if passed, the Save Our Stages Act will establish, among other things, a $10 billion grant program for venue operators, promoters, and staff. Eligible recipients would receive grants equal to the lesser of either 45 percent of gross revenue from 2019 or $12 million. The bill also includes the possibility of supplemental grants in the future if funding continues to remain available and venues continue to struggle as a result of COVID-19-related financial losses. The Save Our Stages bill was introduced to the Senate on July 22, and made its way into the House on July 23. Tomorrow, Tuesday, August 4, is the day for action, "our final push," as Rival Entertainment announced in a press release Monday afternoon. Congress will make decisions this week that determine the fate of thousands of independent venues, promoters and businesses in the ecosystem of live music. While our businesses are closed and it's unsafe to gather together, we need our Senator's support for legislation that keeps businesses afloat and workers' bills paid! As Rival, the Fox Theatre, Masquerade and every other music venue in Atlanta urge you to do, demand: *Support of the Restart Act For America (S 3814 / HR 7418) *Support of the Save Our Stages Act (S 4258) *A six-month extension of unemployment benefits. Ask Senators Loeffler & Perdue to support THE RESTART ACT, THE SAVE OUR STAGES ACT and Extended Federal Unemployment support. Visit www.SaveOurStages.com now to send the Senators a new message and let them know that you support the businesses and people that make concerts, festivals and cultural events happen. It only takes a minute and there isn’t much time left. Have an extra minute? Email the Senator’s staff to ensure our message is getting through: Senator Loeffler: wesley_coopersmith@loeffler.senate.gov & sydne_smith@loeffler.senate.gov Senator Perdue: pj_waldrop@perdue.senate.gov & john_eunice@perdue.senate.gov Stay tuned for more information as the story develops. On July 24, Rep. Ron Kind (D-Wisconsin) and Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pennsylvania) introduced yet another piece of legislation aimed at protecting independent music and entertainment venues through the COVID-19 crisis. The Entertainments New Credit Opportunity for Relief & Economic Sustainability (ENCORES) Act allows live music venues to recoup some of the losses they’ve accrued over ticket refunds from canceled events. If passed, the Bill will provide a 50-percent tax credit for refunded tickets. Like RESTART, ENCORES targets a broader base of affected business including events that also promote and host live comedy, theatrical productions, and sporting events. It also stipulates that to get the credit, eligible businesses must have 500 or fewer eligible employees, and have offered vouchers to customers first, and customers opted for a refund. In the meantime, venues such as Center Stage and the Masquerade are in the process of outfitting their live music rooms to begin hosting live-streaming performances, while Atlanta’s City Winery is “hitting the pause button,” as CEO and founder Michael Dorf announced in a press release, adding he hopes the closing will only be “temporary.” Keep an eye out here for more details and announcements regarding Atlanta clubs and music venues as they become available. In hardcore news ... Atlanta’s rising seven-piece post-post-hardcore outfit The Callous Daoboys recently announced that the group has signed on with the Long Island, New York-based record label Modern Static Records to release a new full-length in 2021. It is, according to an email from the group, “the most ambitious thing we have ever written.” The album’s title has not yet been revealed. Look for new singles to materialize this winter, and the new album to arrive sometime in March or April. In the meantime, the Daoboys’ 2019 debut album Die on Mars is still blowing minds with its maze of jagged and controlled chaos. Slow Fire Pistol also recently made a big jump to Run for Cover Records to release a split 7-inch with Austin’s Portrayal of Guilt. For their side of the split single, Slow Fire Pistol’s singer and guitar player Hank Pratt, guitarist Ben Jordan, bass player Connor McFall, and drummer Blake Hall crafted a five-minute miniature epic that traverses a broad swath of punk, hardcore, post-punk, and early screamo hallmarks, titled “Heart of Discernment.” The song takes shape as a loud and poignant cry for compassion amid a current social and political climate that grows increasingly hostile by the hour. It’s also a searing compliment to Portrayal of Guilt’s “The End of Man Will Bring Peace to This Earth” on the record’s flipside. Clocking in at right around 16 minutes, Playytime’s brand new 7-song EP, titled The Fun Never Ends, is a crawling, heavy-as-hell dose of raw, barreling hardcore that’s exemplified by the album’s title track, and counterweighted by the slow-burning introspection of the closing number, “Windlike (ft. Stemlines).” In other new releases news ... St. Louis rapper Smino recently teamed up with Dreamville’s J.I.D and producer Kenny Beats for a spacious and meditative post-trap banger, titled “Baguetti.” This new cut falls on the heels of Smino being featured on the Dreamville posse cut, “Sacrifices,” with J. Cole, Saba, and Earthgang, which arrived earlier this year. Smino also managed to land a guest spot on Chance the Rapper’s song, “Eternal,” from the album The Big Day, which peaked at #25 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100. On “Baguetti,” J.I.D brings the song to a close with his own take on a TED Talk-style breakdown of his music industry credentials. Check it out on Spotify. The Young Antiques rolled out a video for the song “Goin’ Home,” featuring songwriter and Atlanta expat Kelly Hogan, whose musical repertoire includes a vast body of solo recordings, as well as performing with the Jody Grind, the Rock*A*Teens, Decemberists, and Neko Case. The social distance-friendly video was directed by Atlanta-based photographer and filmmaker Jeff Shipman__, and premiered via The Big Take Over in July. The song is taken from the Young Antiques’ latest album, Another Risk of the Heart. The album is out now via Southern Lovers Recording Co. And last, but not least, on July 24, singer and songwriter Eliot Bronson released his latest album, Empty Spaces. The album’s first single, “Let Me Go,” which premiered via Rolling Stone Country, is just a glimpse of the album’s larger conceptual leanings, steeped in visions of lust, loss, betrayal, romance, and more. —CL— Send local music news items to chad.radford at creativeloafing.com.__ Courtney Breen THE CALLOUS DAOBOYS: The group’s sophomore album is due out via Modern Static Records. 0,0,10 ATLANTA MUSIC NEWS: #SaveOurStages legislation up for vote " ["score"]=> float(0) ["_index"]=> string(35) "atlantawiki_tiki_main_62872e622a9ae" ["objectlink"]=> string(36) "No value for 'contentTitle'" ["photos"]=> string(133) "" ["desc"]=> string(86) "Plus, new music from the Callous Daoboys, Playytime, Elliot Bronson, and more" ["category"]=> string(21) "Uncategorized Content" }

The idea was terrifying. I imagined people huddled on crowded patios, inhaling and exhaling the coronavirus like smoke in a hookah lounge. They would all be 23 and drunk, flaunting their dolphinlike lungs and uncreased skin, or they would be escapees from nursing homes blowing kisses through fingers coated with mucous. Finally, though, more reasonable friends and desperation for something to write about convinced me to visit two restaurant patios. And, to my surprise, my anxiety did not become the panic attack I expected. I don’t have too many illusions about this. I know that COVID-19’s infection rate is “soaring” and “surging” — the media love those words — so that, once again, fewer people are entering public space. Don’t regard what follows as a real-time account of anything more than the food at these places based on single visits. At this writing, both restaurants have menus for dining in and taking out. You should call ahead, because the pandemic comes with scheduling pandemonium. First up was Grana, a newish Italian restaurant that opened just in time for La Corona in mid-March on Piedmont Avenue, near Cheshire Bridge. It is owned by the exceedingly talented Pat Pascarella, who owned a renowned restaurant in Connecticut and moved here, where he became executive chef at the Optimist, arguably the city’s best seafood destination. Last year, he opened the White Bull in Decatur. It draws on Pascarella’s Italian heritage, but is mainly a playful farm-to-table venue heavy on veggies. Its name pays homage to Ernest Hemingway, who romanticized himself as a writerly matador. He referred to the blank page as his white bull, his challenge to dance with an overwhelming onslaught of words until he found the perfect textual moves and slayed the beast of mediocrity with his pen. It’s not a bad metaphor for the chef’s challenge to shape seasonal harvests from local farms and create something masterful. Pascarella succeeds at that at the White Bull. Much of the same ethos prevails at Grana, but the menu is explicitly and classically Italian. Like every Italian chef in America, Pascarella attributes his tastes and skills to his mother and grandmother, who mastered the classics of southern Italy. The menu is divided into seven sections: bread, mozzarella plates, meatballs, pasta, entrees, vegetables, and Neapolitan-style pizzas. There seriously wasn’t anything on the menu that I wouldn’t love to try, but two of us couldn’t even finish the four dishes we ordered. Prepare for leftovers. I knew that I was not going to pass up the fig pizza, one of my favorites, and this was by far the best I’ve had in years. Besides fat slices of ripe figs, the charred pie was topped with ricotta cheese and speck. Vincotto added a slightly sweet note that toyed with peppery arugula profusely scattered on the pie after it was taken from one of the two wood-fire ovens. I have to admit I did encounter an odd note of anchovies now and then. My companion didn’t, so I don’t know if this was my super-sensitive nose inhaling something from the lone table at the other end of the patio or what. As it happens, we did order a pasta dish that included anchovies but it did not arrive until well after the pizza. The pasta was a classic, paccheri alla Norma — a Neapolitan favorite of rather chunky tubes of hollow pasta in a pomodoro sauce with anchovies, ricotta, and eggplant. It hit the spot but went way over the top with the pizza. The five other pastas are also classics, including pappardelle with a pork ragu and pecorino cheese, ricotta ravioli, and corn agnolotti. There are five equally classic entrees — two chicken dishes, wood-roasted branzino, and porchetta, which I’m anxious to try. I didn’t get to choose the meatballs we ordered, so my companion selected a savory serving of three meatballs in a tomato/mostarda sauce with currants. They were terrific, but why the hell didn’t he order the beef ones with gouda, red onion, and black truffle jam? Our fourth dish was by far the most dramatic. In fact, when it arrived at the table I immediately thought of the Wicked Witch of the West, hurling fire balls from her broom while Dorothy proceeded to Oz. It was roasted ears of corn whose singed leaves were pulled back in a mad whirl. The corn itself was not particularly notable until you slathered it in the lemon aioli and Calabrian peppers on which the dramatic broom piece sat. Seven other vegetable dishes were available and, congruent with the White Bull menu, they were the menu’s most compelling dishes to me. Well, they may have tied with the five mozzarella plates. I really wanted the burrata with prosciutto, peaches, and bread sticks. Maybe next time. And maybe I’ll get a cannoli too. I did go inside the large restaurant for a quick tour in my low-fashion mask, and the place was smart but lonely. Only two tables were occupied. The capacious dining room includes a mezzanine, which seems to be an architectural thing with restaurants these days. There’s also a long bar and a very open kitchen. Besides the tiny patio out front, there’s also rooftop dining. Both come with plenty of oxygen. The staff is well educated about the menu, and our server had mastered the art of clear articulation while facially mummified. Give it a try. My second experiment with patio dining during the plague was a visit to Delbar, a new Persian restaurant off North Highland. The name means “soulmate” or “true love” in Farsi, one of the most beautiful languages on the planet. If I had to name a psychedelic moment that involved no ingestion of psychedelics, it would be the afternoon in grad school I listened to an Iranian woman read the 13th-century Persian poet Rumi in Farsi. I told this story to my masked server, Radman, an Iranian student studying at Georgia State. We talked about how much more complex Persian culture is than its media representation. He visits often to see family in Tehran. That being his experience, the restaurant’s owner/chef, Fares Kargar, told “What Now Atlanta” that he left Iran for Turkey as a refugee when he was 17. He soon migrated to Atlanta to study hospitality and, for a while, worked at Rumi’s Kitchen. Delbar is an ambitious project, not helped by opening during the pandemic. The bright, multilevel interior is huge and intriguing, probably reflective of Kargar’s call to architecture before he discovered the restaurant industry. Just like Pascarella at Grana, he says the menu is inspired by the food his family’s women cooked. The patio at Delbar is small, and when a thunderstorm forced me inside, I sat at the otherwise empty bar (wondering if the friendly, masked bartender was a viral sponge). I was eating alone, so I didn’t get to taste much of the menu. I ordered two dishes with which I had some familiarity. The main one was a Cornish hen coated in saffron and deep-fried whole in butter. You tear the bird apart with your hands and drag the meat through one serving of more melted butter and another of Iran’s signature pomegranate sauce. The flavors verged on decadent, but in truth the bird’s white meat was so dry that even an extra-long bath in the sauces was inadequate to add much moisture. I also ordered a plate of the traditional adas polo, a huge plate of saffron basmati rice with lentils and raisins. Traditionally the outer coat of the rice, topped with fried onions, is a bit crispy, but Delbar’s not so much. Here’s the thing, though. I took the leftovers home, tore the flesh from the bird, let it soak in some melted butter, sat it on the rice, then anointed it with pomegranate sauce. The result was much more appetizing. The crowded plating at the restaurant actually made doing this impossible. The rice was truly enough for more than two people, so order it with one of the mezzes, like “sour orange” prawns. Or make a meal of the mezzes, which also include falafel and spreads like hummus and labneh. Be aware, too, that every meal comes with a truly wonderful starter of charred, chewy flatbread with radishes, walnuts, an unusually good feta-type cheese, and herbs. Fold the mint and tarragon into pieces of the bread along with the cheese. I did take a second meal home for the over-worked CDC scientist with whom I live, and I’m tempted to say it was better than my own, although I barely got a taste. He got a whole, silvery trout with walnuts, herbs, and pomegranate. He also got an order of the fried-eggplant spread with onion, mint, and cream of whey. He raved. Then he returned to the plague. This may be the first Persian restaurant I’ve visited where I didn’t order lamb, but there are three dishes on the menu — a stew, chops, and shwarma. There are also kabobs, vegetables, and three rice dishes besides the one I ordered. A few adjustments will make the restaurant a favorite destination for lovers of Middle Eastern cuisine. —CL— Grana, 1835 Piedmont Ave. N.E. 404-231-9000, granaatl.com, @granaatl.

First up was Grana, a newish Italian restaurant that opened just in time for La Corona in mid-March on Piedmont Avenue, near Cheshire Bridge. It is owned by the exceedingly talented Pat Pascarella, who owned a renowned restaurant in Connecticut and moved here, where he became executive chef at the Optimist, arguably the city’s best seafood destination. Last year, he opened the White Bull in Decatur. It draws on Pascarella’s Italian heritage, but is mainly a playful farm-to-table venue heavy on veggies. Its name pays homage to Ernest Hemingway, who romanticized himself as a writerly matador. He referred to the blank page as his white bull, his challenge to dance with an overwhelming onslaught of words until he found the perfect textual moves and slayed the beast of mediocrity with his pen. It’s not a bad metaphor for the chef’s challenge to shape seasonal harvests from local farms and create something masterful. Pascarella succeeds at that at the White Bull. Much of the same ethos prevails at Grana, but the menu is explicitly and classically Italian. Like every Italian chef in America, Pascarella attributes his tastes and skills to his mother and grandmother, who mastered the classics of southern Italy. The menu is divided into seven sections: bread, mozzarella plates, meatballs, pasta, entrees, vegetables, and Neapolitan-style pizzas. There seriously wasn’t anything on the menu that I wouldn’t love to try, but two of us couldn’t even finish the four dishes we ordered. Prepare for leftovers. I knew that I was not going to pass up the fig pizza, one of my favorites, and this was by far the best I’ve had in years. Besides fat slices of ripe figs, the charred pie was topped with ricotta cheese and speck. Vincotto added a slightly sweet note that toyed with peppery arugula profusely scattered on the pie after it was taken from one of the two wood-fire ovens. I have to admit I did encounter an odd note of anchovies now and then. My companion didn’t, so I don’t know if this was my super-sensitive nose inhaling something from the lone table at the other end of the patio or what. As it happens, we did order a pasta dish that included anchovies but it did not arrive until well after the pizza. The pasta was a classic, paccheri alla Norma — a Neapolitan favorite of rather chunky tubes of hollow pasta in a pomodoro sauce with anchovies, ricotta, and eggplant. It hit the spot but went way over the top with the pizza. The five other pastas are also classics, including pappardelle with a pork ragu and pecorino cheese, ricotta ravioli, and corn agnolotti. There are five equally classic entrees — two chicken dishes, wood-roasted branzino, and porchetta, which I’m anxious to try. I didn’t get to choose the meatballs we ordered, so my companion selected a savory serving of three meatballs in a tomato/mostarda sauce with currants. They were terrific, but why the hell didn’t he order the beef ones with gouda, red onion, and black truffle jam? Our fourth dish was by far the most dramatic. In fact, when it arrived at the table I immediately thought of the Wicked Witch of the West, hurling fire balls from her broom while Dorothy proceeded to Oz. It was roasted ears of corn whose singed leaves were pulled back in a mad whirl. The corn itself was not particularly notable until you slathered it in the lemon aioli and Calabrian peppers on which the dramatic broom piece sat. Seven other vegetable dishes were available and, congruent with the White Bull menu, they were the menu’s most compelling dishes to me. Well, they may have tied with the five mozzarella plates. I really wanted the burrata with prosciutto, peaches, and bread sticks. Maybe next time. And maybe I’ll get a cannoli too. I did go inside the large restaurant for a quick tour in my low-fashion mask, and the place was smart but lonely. Only two tables were occupied. The capacious dining room includes a mezzanine, which seems to be an architectural thing with restaurants these days. There’s also a long bar and a very open kitchen. Besides the tiny patio out front, there’s also rooftop dining. Both come with plenty of oxygen. The staff is well educated about the menu, and our server had mastered the art of clear articulation while facially mummified. Give it a try. My second experiment with patio dining during the plague was a visit to Delbar, a new Persian restaurant off North Highland. The name means “soulmate” or “true love” in Farsi, one of the most beautiful languages on the planet. If I had to name a psychedelic moment that involved no ingestion of psychedelics, it would be the afternoon in grad school I listened to an Iranian woman read the 13th-century Persian poet Rumi in Farsi. I told this story to my masked server, Radman, an Iranian student studying at Georgia State. We talked about how much more complex Persian culture is than its media representation. He visits often to see family in Tehran. That being his experience, the restaurant’s owner/chef, Fares Kargar, told “What Now Atlanta” that he left Iran for Turkey as a refugee when he was 17. He soon migrated to Atlanta to study hospitality and, for a while, worked at Rumi’s Kitchen. Delbar is an ambitious project, not helped by opening during the pandemic. The bright, multilevel interior is huge and intriguing, probably reflective of Kargar’s call to architecture before he discovered the restaurant industry. Just like Pascarella at Grana, he says the menu is inspired by the food his family’s women cooked. The patio at Delbar is small, and when a thunderstorm forced me inside, I sat at the otherwise empty bar (wondering if the friendly, masked bartender was a viral sponge). I was eating alone, so I didn’t get to taste much of the menu. I ordered two dishes with which I had some familiarity. The main one was a Cornish hen coated in saffron and deep-fried whole in butter. You tear the bird apart with your hands and drag the meat through one serving of more melted butter and another of Iran’s signature pomegranate sauce. The flavors verged on decadent, but in truth the bird’s white meat was so dry that even an extra-long bath in the sauces was inadequate to add much moisture. I also ordered a plate of the traditional adas polo, a huge plate of saffron basmati rice with lentils and raisins. Traditionally the outer coat of the rice, topped with fried onions, is a bit crispy, but Delbar’s not so much. Here’s the thing, though. I took the leftovers home, tore the flesh from the bird, let it soak in some melted butter, sat it on the rice, then anointed it with pomegranate sauce. The result was much more appetizing. The crowded plating at the restaurant actually made doing this impossible. The rice was truly enough for more than two people, so order it with one of the mezzes, like “sour orange” prawns. Or make a meal of the mezzes, which also include falafel and spreads like hummus and labneh. Be aware, too, that every meal comes with a truly wonderful starter of charred, chewy flatbread with radishes, walnuts, an unusually good feta-type cheese, and herbs. Fold the mint and tarragon into pieces of the bread along with the cheese. I did take a second meal home for the over-worked CDC scientist with whom I live, and I’m tempted to say it was better than my own, although I barely got a taste. He got a whole, silvery trout with walnuts, herbs, and pomegranate. He also got an order of the fried-eggplant spread with onion, mint, and cream of whey. He raved. Then he returned to the plague. This may be the first Persian restaurant I’ve visited where I didn’t order lamb, but there are three dishes on the menu — a stew, chops, and shwarma. There are also kabobs, vegetables, and three rice dishes besides the one I ordered. A few adjustments will make the restaurant a favorite destination for lovers of Middle Eastern cuisine. —CL— Grana, 1835 Piedmont Ave. N.E. 404-231-9000, granaatl.com, @granaatl.

The maskless mother said, “There was a man at the door who said if you have a mask can you please put your mask on, and we didn’t have any with us — but he didn’t say that we couldn’t come in.” DUMBASS OF THE MONTH: Coweta County police stopped a 28-year-old man using his cellphone — without a hands-free device — while driving and allegedly weaving all over on 1-85. During the stop, an officer smelled marijuana coming from the driver’s Dodge Ram, prompting a search of the pickup truck. They found 15 pounds of alleged marijuana, $33,498 in cash, and a loaded handgun — inside a duffel bag. You’d think with more than $33k stuffed in a duffel bag, the driver could spring for a hands-free device for his cellphone! The 28-year-old driver now faces two felony charges (trafficking marijuana, possession of a firearm), plus a host of driving violations. He was released from the Coweta County Jail after posting $75,000 bond. WON’T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR?: In Roswell one evening, a man allegedly used a ladder to climb on top of his neighbor’s suburban home. The Roswell homeowner saw the man on his home security system video — and called police before confronting the weird 28-year-old dude on his roof. Apparently, the man on the ladder was trying to peep at the Roswell family. Police showed up and questioned him: Why are you on the roof? The man said he was looking for a missing cat. Roswell police do not believe this was the first time the 28-year-old had been peeping on his neighbors. He’s now charged with Peeping Tom. SOUTHERN NAME CHANGE: A brouhaha broke out over a street named after Jim Crow in Flowery Branch, Hall County. The local city council voted to change the name in July because they wanted to send a positive message — but they didn’t realize the Jim Crow Street was named after a person and not a segregationist movement. The council “had no idea the street was named after an actual person.” Apparently, Jim Crow was a well-known farmer in Hall County — and they named a road after him. “He went out of his way to help the people in his community,” reports WSB-TV. Crow’s family members recall that “he would help feed families, he would even, when families couldn’t afford a proper burial … use lumber from his lumber yard to actually build the caskets for these family members.” But Jim Crow is not the farmer’s real name. He was born Glennon C. Crow. After his mom died, an aunt who raised Crow nicknamed him Jimmy. Eventually, the nickname evolved into Jim. His nephew Randy Crow says, “Nobody had any idea it could be racial or anything.” The street will be renamed G.C. Crow Road. The Flowery Branch City Council has ordered new road signs … but apparently the pandemic is slowing down production. The City of Flowery Branch also plans to put a plaque in a nearby park in Hall County explaining who Jim Crow (the farmer) was and his legacy, according to Mayor Mike Miller. FOILED PLAN: A 23-year-old man from Cumming, Georgia will spend the next 15 years behind bars for threatening to use explosives to blow up the White House. According to a U.S. Attorney’s Office press release: The 23-year-old “planned to conduct a terrorist attack on the White House as part of what he claimed was his obligation to engage in jihad.” Undercover agents met with the 23-year-old, who showed them his sketches of the White House. Also, the 23-year-old described the types of weapons and explosives he was going to use in the attack. FBI agents arrested the 23-year-old when he showed up at a pre-arranged meeting where he expected to obtain assault rifles, explosive devices, and an antitank weapon. In late July, the 23-year-old was sentenced to 15 years in prison, plus three years of supervised release. WATER WARS: Atlanta City Council President Felicia Moore is calling for Atlanta’s “bottle boys” to be cleared from the city’s intersections. “Bottle boys” are youths trying to sell bottles of water to people in cars passing by. Moore says: “The boys are either going to get hurt or they are going to hurt somebody.” Last weekend, in Buckhead, a motorist hit a nine-year-old bottle boy at a busy intersection. The boy wasn’t seriously hurt; the motorist fled the scene. Another motorist says a teenage bottle boy, who hurled a water bottle at his car after he refused to buy it, accosted him. This incident also took place in Buckhead. The motorist does not think the teen should be arrested. He says, “Stop the aggression, stop the assault, and it’s all good. I’ll buy your water.” SOCIAL-DISTANCING SNAFU: An Oakhurst woman writes: “My friend and I were walking on East Lake a block away from the Banjo house. We saw a man approaching. It was dark, and with social distancing and spacing, we decided to walk in the street so he wouldn’t have to wait for us to pass or vice versa. As we stepped in the street, he started fussing and questioning why we didn’t want to walk past him on the sidewalk. He was loud, rude, and may have been inebriated, but he tried to make a scene and started using profanity. I walk all the time and move off into the street as to let others pass, especially when I’m not alone. I really was offended by it and a little spooked.” —CL— The Blotter Diva compiles reports from the Atlanta Police Department and local news reports and puts them into her own words."

The maskless mother said, “There was a man at the door who said if you have a mask can you please put your mask on, and we didn’t have any with us — but he didn’t say that we couldn’t come in.” DUMBASS OF THE MONTH: Coweta County police stopped a 28-year-old man using his cellphone — without a hands-free device — while driving and allegedly weaving all over on 1-85. During the stop, an officer smelled marijuana coming from the driver’s Dodge Ram, prompting a search of the pickup truck. They found 15 pounds of alleged marijuana, $33,498 in cash, and a loaded handgun — inside a duffel bag. You’d think with more than $33k stuffed in a duffel bag, the driver could spring for a hands-free device for his cellphone! The 28-year-old driver now faces two felony charges (trafficking marijuana, possession of a firearm), plus a host of driving violations. He was released from the Coweta County Jail after posting $75,000 bond. WON’T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR?: In Roswell one evening, a man allegedly used a ladder to climb on top of his neighbor’s suburban home. The Roswell homeowner saw the man on his home security system video — and called police before confronting the weird 28-year-old dude on his roof. Apparently, the man on the ladder was trying to peep at the Roswell family. Police showed up and questioned him: Why are you on the roof? The man said he was looking for a missing cat. Roswell police do not believe this was the first time the 28-year-old had been peeping on his neighbors. He’s now charged with Peeping Tom. SOUTHERN NAME CHANGE: A brouhaha broke out over a street named after Jim Crow in Flowery Branch, Hall County. The local city council voted to change the name in July because they wanted to send a positive message — but they didn’t realize the Jim Crow Street was named after a person and not a segregationist movement. The council “had no idea the street was named after an actual person.” Apparently, Jim Crow was a well-known farmer in Hall County — and they named a road after him. “He went out of his way to help the people in his community,” reports WSB-TV. Crow’s family members recall that “he would help feed families, he would even, when families couldn’t afford a proper burial … use lumber from his lumber yard to actually build the caskets for these family members.” But Jim Crow is not the farmer’s real name. He was born Glennon C. Crow. After his mom died, an aunt who raised Crow nicknamed him Jimmy. Eventually, the nickname evolved into Jim. His nephew Randy Crow says, “Nobody had any idea it could be racial or anything.” The street will be renamed G.C. Crow Road. The Flowery Branch City Council has ordered new road signs … but apparently the pandemic is slowing down production. The City of Flowery Branch also plans to put a plaque in a nearby park in Hall County explaining who Jim Crow (the farmer) was and his legacy, according to Mayor Mike Miller. FOILED PLAN: A 23-year-old man from Cumming, Georgia will spend the next 15 years behind bars for threatening to use explosives to blow up the White House. According to a U.S. Attorney’s Office press release: The 23-year-old “planned to conduct a terrorist attack on the White House as part of what he claimed was his obligation to engage in jihad.” Undercover agents met with the 23-year-old, who showed them his sketches of the White House. Also, the 23-year-old described the types of weapons and explosives he was going to use in the attack. FBI agents arrested the 23-year-old when he showed up at a pre-arranged meeting where he expected to obtain assault rifles, explosive devices, and an antitank weapon. In late July, the 23-year-old was sentenced to 15 years in prison, plus three years of supervised release. WATER WARS: Atlanta City Council President Felicia Moore is calling for Atlanta’s “bottle boys” to be cleared from the city’s intersections. “Bottle boys” are youths trying to sell bottles of water to people in cars passing by. Moore says: “The boys are either going to get hurt or they are going to hurt somebody.” Last weekend, in Buckhead, a motorist hit a nine-year-old bottle boy at a busy intersection. The boy wasn’t seriously hurt; the motorist fled the scene. Another motorist says a teenage bottle boy, who hurled a water bottle at his car after he refused to buy it, accosted him. This incident also took place in Buckhead. The motorist does not think the teen should be arrested. He says, “Stop the aggression, stop the assault, and it’s all good. I’ll buy your water.” SOCIAL-DISTANCING SNAFU: An Oakhurst woman writes: “My friend and I were walking on East Lake a block away from the Banjo house. We saw a man approaching. It was dark, and with social distancing and spacing, we decided to walk in the street so he wouldn’t have to wait for us to pass or vice versa. As we stepped in the street, he started fussing and questioning why we didn’t want to walk past him on the sidewalk. He was loud, rude, and may have been inebriated, but he tried to make a scene and started using profanity. I walk all the time and move off into the street as to let others pass, especially when I’m not alone. I really was offended by it and a little spooked.” —CL— The Blotter Diva compiles reports from the Atlanta Police Department and local news reports and puts them into her own words.

Our conversation yields some compelling discourse as we discuss the balance of developing a career as an artist while, at the same time maintaining the momentum of a social movement, not unlike the one the United States is currently experiencing. The day we speak marks 40 days since the killing of Rayshard Brooks by APD at the Wendy’s on University Avenue. Although protests around the city continue, the contagious spirit of activism that was taking Atlanta by storm just weeks earlier appears to have subsided significantly. Contrary to criticizing those who may have started to ease their foot off the gas pedal, Apollo sees the slowdown as an unfortunate byproduct of human nature. As the #BlackLivesMatter hashtag fades away from social media feeds, people feel betrayed or angered by the decrease of energy being devoted to the movement. While that hurt is justifiable, I agree with him on the idea that such ebb and flow is a longstanding problem. Inconsistency and wavering motivation have caused countless dreams to fall by the wayside. Even with large numbers of people demonstrating in the streets in hopes of forging a better society as the cool spring turned into a heated summer, widespread burnout is not unexpected. But such abatement doesn’t mean that now is the time to collectively bury the hatchet with an unjust law enforcement and revert back to “‘normal.” No, now is the time to regroup and keep the momentum — the energy that propelled people to take to the streets — moving forward. “It’s difficult to keep momentum going,” Apollo says, “so right now, it’s a matter of people teaming up and putting everyone’s energy together. It takes strategy and a mass group of people.” And if anyone has experience with maintaining momentum, it’s Johnny Apollo. Since stepping onto the local hip-hop scene in the mid-2010s with a brash alternative sound, Apollo has made his mark on Atlanta with high-octane performances at indie showcases such as Lotus Rosery and opening for rappers such as U-God and Desiigner. As an artist whose shows always keep audience members’ hearts racing throughout the entire set, there’s not a half-ass bone in his body, and his progression as an artist is largely due to his nonstop dedication to his craft. After years of grinding independently, Apollo made a major career move in 2019 and inked a record deal with Rowdy Records, the label originally co-founded by L.A. Reid and Atlanta’s own Dallas Austin that once housed talents such as Monica, Sammie, and Mario Winans. Rowdy has since relaunched under Austin’s leadership, signing Johnny Apollo as its first artist. Ironically, Apollo’s first move on the label was a relaunch of his own — the re-release of his cult-classic single “STFU.” Originally dropped in 2016, “STFU” gained steam locally for its ability to breathe life and energy into even the most deflated crowds, and five years later, it’s as fresh and electrifying as it was then. As our discussion continues, Apollo hints at releasing a new project on Rowdy later on in the fall. Despite being content with the positive direction in which his career is heading, his drive is still at an all-time high, his sights set on developing the next phase in the evolution of his sound. And, he promises, regardless of whatever musical styles he may experiment with, the rage within his music will always be present. Acknowledging that rage is not only a part of his music, but also plays a large part in his creative process, Apollo says the word means much more to him than how it’s defined in Webster’s. For Apollo, it conveys the essence of his experiences — whether good or bad — and by stepping into the booth and sharing his rage with the world, he can heal and be his most authentic self. “Rage is something that everybody has inside of them,” Apollo says, “and it’s something that should be expressed in a constructive way rather than a destructive way. It’s a beautiful energy, so people should be able to let it out.” Johnny Apollo’s persistence, his ability to so powerfully convey his emotions and experiences seem destined to bring him success in the music industry. Those same qualities are also the marks of a leader, especially in tough times like these. When I tell him this, however, he quickly dismisses such a role for himself in the movement, saying that he is more of an observant participant. While wary of leading others into dangerous or unfavorable situations, Apollo wholeheartedly asserts that things must change in Atlanta. “I’m a big believer in taking what you want. People are never going to just give you what you ask for,” he says. “They’re always going to hold something over your head, so with anything that’s worth having, particularly when it comes to change, you’ve gotta take it by any means necessary.” To permanently affect change in our city and beyond, we can’t afford to slip into complacency, especially when there is still so much work to be done. Don’t consider moments like this as defeat — treat them like a pit stop. As Johnny Apollo says, “We’ve gotta rage until we get what we want.” After resting, we must continue to channel our rage until all Black lives matter — in every community across the city, state and this nation. In honor of those who have suffered, indeed, like the late John Lewis, keep getting into good trouble and show Atlanta just how inextinguishable our rage can be."

Atlanta blues and soul singer Sandra Hall is not one of them. “I was born in ’48,” she says within the first two minutes of our recent interview, without a hint of embarrassment or shyness. It’s reflective of the down-home honesty that flows from Hall into her feisty singing and stage presence. All of which help make her one of the most popular Atlanta born-and-raised roots singers still active. The old cliché that “age is just a number” surely applies to Hall. Anyone who has seen her tear it up on stage can attest to that. Well, at least before the coronavirus pandemic put the brakes on much of her live work at Blind Willie’s blues club. Her multiple monthly slots there have made Hall, dubbed Atlanta’s Empress of the Blues, a fixture of the local scene over the years. But for someone who has been there/done that and weathered changes in the music industry for the past five-plus decades, this might just be another bump in a lengthy and winding career path, one that Hall has traveled, both nationally and internationally, as a professional vocalist for virtually her entire life. As with many in her genre, Hall started singing in the church. In her case, she was just four years old. She had an “in,” though. Her grandfather was the Pastor of Whitesville Baptist Church, and her grandmother was the pianist. Fast forward to 1962. A 14-year-old Hall and her sister (one year older), already with eight years of gospel experience, get an offer to perform at a new Atlanta nightspot called Club 400. Although Hall had been used to singing church music and had to be chaperoned by her grandmother, the duo — dubbed The Soul Sisters — put together an R&B act based on the hits of era. “Ike and Tina Turner, Etta James, we didn’t have any music of our own at that time,” she explains. That got her into the business. In the mid-’60s, Sandra was going to school and picking up jobs as a go-go dancer. She then joined three other women to form The Exotics, an act that played Atlanta’s Royal Peacock Club — opening for stars like Otis Redding, B.B. King and others — and toured the country during the “Green Book” (officially known as The Negro Motorist Green Book) years. The Green Book detailed specific places African American performers could safely work and stay as they wound their way throughout the United States playing clubs and bars. Immortalized in the movie of the same name, the Green Book directed Hall and her fellow musicians to places that were friendly to people of color at the time. Reflecting back on those difficult days, Hall seems unfazed about the frustrations she faced. “When we went to small country towns, we had to be back (at the hotel) at a certain time. We couldn’t sit in the audience at white clubs, we could only perform on stage. We had to use the bathroom on the bus,” she explains with disarming calm. “It was really hard at times. Of course that was during the Jim Crow days. You had to ride in the back of the public bus, you couldn’t eat at certain restaurants.” After The Exotics, Hall went solo, but being a single mom, she returned to school to study nursing. She also took law and business classes and even worked for an attorney for a while, all to better understand the financial aspects of the entertainment world. When she returned to singing, Hall leaned more into straight blues. Around 1989, connected with Blind Willie’s, the now iconic blues club that had just opened in 1986. She started backing up other musicians but quickly was promoted to her own slot, and “I’ve been there ever since,” she says proudly. Hall has released four albums along the way. And there have been plenty of high-profile gigs outside of Atlanta, specifically at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival, where she performed in the early ’90s. But it was local blues figures like Junior Moore, “Houserocker” Johnson, Sweet Betty, Lotsa Poppa, and Chicago Bob Nelson that both influenced Hall and were her peers on the Atlanta blues scene, even before Blind Willie’s opened and became the blues hub it remains. Despite mentoring a young Shemekia Copeland — who Hall remains friends with but doesn’t consider a blues singer — there isn’t an influx of younger Black musicians ready to fill the shoes of those we have lost over the last few years. Yet Hall doesn’t see this as an issue. “We (African Americans) created the songs. Most of the white people do those songs. They are not originals but they do them well. I’m enjoying it. I’ve worked for so many cultures …. I don’t look at the color of your skin. I look at your soul and heart. This is where the music lies.” But you better be on your game when backing her up. “If you’re not doing a good job, I’ll say something about it!” Although she has had to stop performing because of the pandemic and social distancing, like any lifelong vocalist, Hall continues to sing, though now it’s in her backyard instead of on a stage. She still remains dedicated to the music she has made her life’s work. “I love the blues. I love God first, but I love the blues,” she says. And at 72, she’s not ready to stop anytime soon. —CL— Please send upcoming blues events to consider for CL’s Blues & Beyond concert calendar to hal.horowitz at creativeloafing.com."

At press time that release date stands, but with coronavirus cases soaring in Georgia and many other states, we should not expect to return to movie theaters any time soon. Rescheduling means that we may have an unconventional, supersized film festival season. The 44th Atlanta Film Festival was postponed from spring to September 17-27 and, if those dates stand, will overlap with the 33rd Out on Film Festival from September 24-October 4. The festivals will likely be very different this year, relying on drive-ins, virtual screenings, and other events that allow social distancing. The 11th Bronzelens Film Festival will be taking that kind of approach from August 11-16. Billed this year as “Bronzelens: The Virtual Experience,” the 11-year-old festival will present a total of 77 films from around the world created by or about people of color, while offering online versions of its usual classes, industry panels, and after parties. This year’s festival includes several Atlanta productions, including Building Atlanta: The Story of Herman J. Russell and the short, “Mr. & Mrs. Ellis.” An unquestioned highlight is the documentary Thumbs Up for Mother Universe: Stories from the Life of Lonnie Holley. Drawing on footage shot for almost three decades, the Thumbs Up documentary profiles the life and work of found-object artist Lonnie Holley, who’s currently based in Atlanta after spending much of his life in Birmingham, Alabama. The self-described “Robin Hood of Garbage” comes across as a fascinating figure, incessantly searching for castoff objects to reconceive as sculptures. Also nicknamed “The Sandman,” he proves skilled as any traditional artist, carving delicate images in sandstone slabs in a matter of minutes. One of the most compelling sequences shows video from the early 1990s as Holley’s home, a massive sculpture garden (or “conceptual yard environment”), faces destruction from the expansion of the Birmingham airport. Although Holley eventually wins funds to relocate, much of his art has to be left behind and destroyed.

The Bronzelens Virtual Experience. Aug. 11-16. https://bronzelens.com/ After the Fire: In the summer of 2020 it can be difficult to watch any movie and not view it through the prism of COVID-19. The documentary Rebuilding Paradise, released to video on demand on July 31, can be a cathartic experience with unexpected parallels to the contemporary pandemic. :::: Ron Howard, journeyman director of old-school Hollywood blockbusters, offers a thematic reprise of his firefighter drama Backdraft with this documentary about California’s disastrous Camp Fire of 2018. The first nine minutes are as terrifying as any film of the year as a wildfire breaks out at Camp Creek Road in Butte County. Citizens of the nearby town of Paradise must evacuate through a blazing, smoke-blackened landscape that looks like hell itself. With more than 80 fatalities, the Camp Fire is considered the deadliest California wildfire in history. Rebuilding Paradise explores the causes of the fire, pointing to an unusually dry fall, exacerbated by climate change, as well as improper reforestation after logging. The literal spark that set off the fire came from antiquated power equipment, with Pacific Gas and Electric eventually pleading guilty to manslaughter. Consumer advocate Erin Brockovich even pays a visit. Meanwhile, FEMA red tape hinders the people of Paradise from moving back home. As the title suggests, most of the film depicts the long, slow struggle to rebuild the town. Over the course of a year Howard revisits people, including a school superintendent wondering how to resume classes with no available school building. When a teenager laments “I was robbed of my senior year,” he inadvertently anticipates the predicament of the Class of 2020, who were denied in-person proms and graduation ceremonies across America due to the virus. Watching Rebuilding Paradise in the midst of an ongoing, disastrous pandemic lends weight to the film, which can otherwise feel a bit dry. As the residents of Paradise deal with their losses, today’s viewers may feel that much more empathy. When the town holds a celebration at the fire’s one-year anniversary, the film holds out hope that adversity doesn’t last forever. Coming Attractions August 16 will see the long-awaited debut of “Lovecraft Country,” an HBO show co-produced by Jordan Peele that seems in line with the director’s unique perspective on horror and race relations in America. Based on the novel by Matt Ruff, “Lovecraft Country” depicts an African-American family investigating a complex supernatural mystery while contending with bigotry and brutality in the Jim Crow 1950s. While not literally about famous genre writer (and notorious racist) H.P. Lovecraft, the book offers a unique blend of cosmic horror and social commentary. In the book, the episodes of real-life racist brutality prove much more menacing than the occult goings-on. It will be interesting to see the show’s approach. Filmed in Georgia, “Lovecraft Country” features such actors as Birds of Prey’s Jurnee Smollett-Bell, “The Wire”’s Michael Kenneth Williams, Da 5 Bloods’ Jonathan Majors, and Courtney B. Vance. —CL— Screen Time is a monthly column about film and video from the big screen to streaming services." ["tracker_field_contentWikiPage_raw"]=> string(6477) "When the lockdown began a few months ago, some movies were postponed with the reasoning, “Surely this will have blown over by late summer.” For instance, the superhero film ''The New Mutants'', once scheduled for 2018, was bumped yet again, from April 3 to August 28. At press time that release date stands, but with coronavirus cases soaring in Georgia and many other states, we should not expect to return to movie theaters any time soon. Rescheduling means that we may have an unconventional, supersized film festival season. The 44th Atlanta Film Festival was postponed from spring to September 17-27 and, if those dates stand, will overlap with the 33rd Out on Film Festival from September 24-October 4. The festivals will likely be very different this year, relying on drive-ins, virtual screenings, and other events that allow social distancing. The 11th Bronzelens Film Festival will be taking that kind of approach from August 11-16. Billed this year as “Bronzelens: The Virtual Experience,” the 11-year-old festival will present a total of 77 films from around the world created by or about people of color, while offering online versions of its usual classes, industry panels, and after parties. This year’s festival includes several Atlanta productions, including ''Building Atlanta: The Story of Herman J. Russell'' and the short, “Mr. & Mrs. Ellis.” An unquestioned highlight is the documentary ''Thumbs Up for Mother Universe: Stories from the Life of Lonnie Holley''. Drawing on footage shot for almost three decades, the ''Thumbs Up'' documentary profiles the life and work of found-object artist Lonnie Holley, who’s currently based in Atlanta after spending much of his life in Birmingham, Alabama. The self-described “Robin Hood of Garbage” comes across as a fascinating figure, incessantly searching for castoff objects to reconceive as sculptures. Also nicknamed “The Sandman,” he proves skilled as any traditional artist, carving delicate images in sandstone slabs in a matter of minutes. One of the most compelling sequences shows video from the early 1990s as Holley’s home, a massive sculpture garden (or “conceptual yard environment”), faces destruction from the expansion of the Birmingham airport.

So many tasks require us to be knowledgeable and self-assured and forceful and in control. But according to my astrological analysis, the coming weeks will be a time when you will benefit from the former state of mind: cultivating what Zen Buddhists call “beginner’s mind.” The Chinese refer to it as chūxīn, or the mind of a novice. The Koreans call it the eee mok oh? approach, translated as “What is this?” Buddhist teacher Jack Kornfield defines it as the “don’t-know mind.” During this upcoming phase, I invite you to enjoy the feeling of being at peace with all that’s mysterious and beyond your understanding. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you.” Author Anne Lamott wrote that, and now I’m conveying it to you—just in time for the Unplug-Yourself Phase of your astrological cycle. Any glitches or snafus you may be dealing with right now aren’t as serious as you might imagine. The biggest problem seems to be the messy congestion that has accumulated over time in your links to sources that usually serve you pretty well. So if you’ll simply disconnect for a while, I’m betting that clarity and grace will be restored when you reconnect. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Have you been saving any of your tricks for later? If so, later has arrived. Have you been postponing flourishes and climaxes until the time was right? If so, the coming days will be as right a time as there can be. Have you been waiting and waiting for the perfect moment before making use of favors that life owes you and promises that were made to you? If so, the perfect moment has arrived. Have you been wondering when you would get a ripe opportunity to express and highlight the most interesting truths about yourself? If so, that opportunity is available. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “I learned to make my mind large, as the universe is large, so that there is room for paradoxes,” writes Scorpio author Maxine Hong Kingston. That would be an excellent task for you to work on in the coming weeks. Here are your formulas for success: 1. The more you expand your imagination, the better you’ll understand the big picture of your present situation—and the more progress you will make toward creating the most interesting possible future. 2. The more comfortable you are about dwelling in the midst of paradoxes, the more likely it is that you will generate vigorous decisions that serve both your own needs and the needs of your allies. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Some people will never like you because your spirit irritates their demons,” says actor and director Denzel Washington. “When you shine bright, some won’t enjoy the shadow you cast,” says rapper and activist Talib Kweli. You may have to deal with reactions like those in the coming weeks, Sagittarius. If you do, I suggest that you don’t take it personally. Your job is to be your radiant, generous self—and not worry about whether anyone has the personal power necessary to handle your radiant, generous self. The good news is that I suspect you will stimulate plenty of positive responses that will more than counterbalance the challenging ones. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Capricorn occultist Peter J. Carroll tells us, “Some have sought to avoid suffering by avoiding desire. Thus they have only small desires and small sufferings.” In all of the zodiac, you Capricorns are among the least likely to be like that. One of your potential strengths is the inclination to cultivate robust desires that are rooted in a quest for rich experience. Yes, that sometimes means you must deal with more strenuous ordeals than other people. But I think it’s a wise trade-off. In any case, my dear, you’re now in a phase of your cycle when you should take inventory of your yearnings. If you find there are some that are too timid or meager, I invite you to either drop them or pump them up. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The people who live in the town of Bazoule, Burkina Faso regard the local crocodiles as sacred. They live and work amidst the 100+ creatures, co-existing peacefully. Kids play within a few feet of them, never worrying about safety. I’d love to see you come to similar arrangements with untamed influences and strong characters in your own life, Aquarius. You don’t necessarily have to treat them as sacred, but I do encourage you to increase your empathy and respect for them. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your body naturally produces at least one quart of mucus every day. You might not be aware of it, because much of it glides down your throat. Although you may regard this snot as gross, it’s quite healthy. It contains antibodies and enzymes that kill harmful bacteria and viruses. I propose we regard mucus as your prime metaphor in the coming weeks. Be on the alert for influences and ideas that might empower you even if they’re less than beautiful and pleasing. Make connections with helpful influences even if they’re not sublimely attractive. ARIES (March 21-April 19): In her book Sticks, Stones, Roots & Bones, Stephanie Rose Bird reports that among early African Americans, there were specialists who spoke the language of trees. These patient magicians developed intimate relationships with individual trees, learning their moods and rhythms, and even exchanging non-verbal information with them. Trees imparted wisdom about herbal cures, weather patterns, and ecologically sound strategies. Until recently, many scientists might have dismissed this lore as delusion. But in his 2016 book The Hidden Life of Trees, forester Peter Wohlleben offers evidence that trees have social lives and do indeed have the power to converse. I’ve always said that you Aries folks have great potential to conduct meaningful dialogs with animals and trees. And now happens to be a perfect time for you to seek such invigorating pleasures. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Author Joanne Harris writes, “The right circumstances sometimes happen of their own accord, slyly, without fanfare, without warning. The magic of everyday things.” I think that’s an apt oracle for you to embrace during the coming weeks. In my opinion, life will be conspiring to make you feel at home in the world. You will have an excellent opportunity to get your personal rhythm into close alignment with the rhythm of creation. And so you may achieve a version of what mythologist Joseph Campbell called “the goal of life”: “to make your heartbeat match the beat of the universe, to match your nature with Nature.” GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Author Gloria Anzaldúa writes, “I am an act of kneading, of uniting and joining.” She adds that in this process, she has become “a creature that questions the definitions of light and dark and gives them new meanings.” I would love for you to engage in similar work right now, Gemini. Life will be on your side—bringing you lucky breaks and stellar insights—if you undertake the heroic work of reformulating the meanings of “light” and “dark”—and then reshaping the way you embody those primal forces. CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Pleasure is one of the most important things in life, as important as food or drink,” wrote Cancerian author Irving Stone. I would love for you to heed that counsel, my fellow Crabs. What he says is always true, but it will be extraordinarily meaningful for you to take to heart during the coming weeks. Here’s how you could begin: Make a list of seven experiences that bring you joy, bliss, delight, fun, amusement, and gratification. Then make a vow—even write an oath on a piece of paper—to increase the frequency and intensity of those experiences."

In any case, my dear, you’re now in a phase of your cycle when you should take inventory of your yearnings. If you find there are some that are too timid or meager, I invite you to either drop them or pump them up. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The people who live in the town of Bazoule, Burkina Faso regard the local crocodiles as sacred. They live and work amidst the 100+ creatures, co-existing peacefully. Kids play within a few feet of them, never worrying about safety. I’d love to see you come to similar arrangements with untamed influences and strong characters in your own life, Aquarius. You don’t necessarily have to treat them as sacred, but I do encourage you to increase your empathy and respect for them. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your body naturally produces at least one quart of mucus every day. You might not be aware of it, because much of it glides down your throat. Although you may regard this snot as gross, it’s quite healthy. It contains antibodies and enzymes that kill harmful bacteria and viruses. I propose we regard mucus as your prime metaphor in the coming weeks. Be on the alert for influences and ideas that might empower you even if they’re less than beautiful and pleasing. Make connections with helpful influences even if they’re not sublimely attractive. ARIES (March 21-April 19): In her book Sticks, Stones, Roots & Bones, Stephanie Rose Bird reports that among early African Americans, there were specialists who spoke the language of trees. These patient magicians developed intimate relationships with individual trees, learning their moods and rhythms, and even exchanging non-verbal information with them. Trees imparted wisdom about herbal cures, weather patterns, and ecologically sound strategies. Until recently, many scientists might have dismissed this lore as delusion. But in his 2016 book The Hidden Life of Trees, forester Peter Wohlleben offers evidence that trees have social lives and do indeed have the power to converse. I’ve always said that you Aries folks have great potential to conduct meaningful dialogs with animals and trees. And now happens to be a perfect time for you to seek such invigorating pleasures. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Author Joanne Harris writes, “The right circumstances sometimes happen of their own accord, slyly, without fanfare, without warning. The magic of everyday things.” I think that’s an apt oracle for you to embrace during the coming weeks. In my opinion, life will be conspiring to make you feel at home in the world. You will have an excellent opportunity to get your personal rhythm into close alignment with the rhythm of creation. And so you may achieve a version of what mythologist Joseph Campbell called “the goal of life”: “to make your heartbeat match the beat of the universe, to match your nature with Nature.” GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Author Gloria Anzaldúa writes, “I am an act of kneading, of uniting and joining.” She adds that in this process, she has become “a creature that questions the definitions of light and dark and gives them new meanings.” I would love for you to engage in similar work right now, Gemini. Life will be on your side—bringing you lucky breaks and stellar insights—if you undertake the heroic work of reformulating the meanings of “light” and “dark”—and then reshaping the way you embody those primal forces. CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Pleasure is one of the most important things in life, as important as food or drink,” wrote Cancerian author Irving Stone. I would love for you to heed that counsel, my fellow Crabs. What he says is always true, but it will be extraordinarily meaningful for you to take to heart during the coming weeks. Here’s how you could begin: Make a list of seven experiences that bring you joy, bliss, delight, fun, amusement, and gratification. Then make a vow—even write an oath on a piece of paper—to increase the frequency and intensity of those experiences. freevectoronline.com' 0,0,10 freewillastrology astrology horoscope "rob brezny" Free Will Astrology - August 2020 " ["score"]=> float(0) ["_index"]=> string(35) "atlantawiki_tiki_main_62872e622a9ae" ["objectlink"]=> string(36) "No value for 'contentTitle'" ["photos"]=> string(121) "" ["desc"]=> string(32) "No description provided" ["category"]=> string(13) "News Features" }

The Lion - July 23-Aug. 22
At times in our lives, it’s impractical to be innocent and curious and blank and receptive. So many tasks require us to be knowledgeable and self-assured and forceful and in control. But according to my astrological analysis, the coming weeks will be a time when you will benefit from the former state of mind: cultivating what Zen Buddhists call “beginner’s...

He devoted most of his adult life to championing previously underappreciated art forms and artists, from Sub-Saharan Africa to the Black American South. He died peacefully, at his time, age 81, on August 12th, in Atlanta. Born May 10, 1939, in Columbus, GA, to Hilliard B. Arenowitch and Minna Moses Arenowitch, Bill was a collector (marbles, comic books, baseball cards, butterflies) and standout athlete (especially baseball) from an early age. After attending Georgia Tech and the University of Pennsylvania, he graduated from the University of Georgia. He moved to London and quickly became a lifelong devotee of the visual arts, eventually traveling to more than sixty countries to study and collect art. In 1964, he married his high-school sweetheart, Judy Ann Mitchell, and together they settled in Atlanta and had four sons. With his brother, Robert Arnett, he became an art dealer and collector specializing in non-Western civilizations, including those of the Middle East, China, Southeast Asia, Oceania, Africa, and the Americas. He and Judy opened their art-filled home to visitors, art lovers, and acquaintances from all over the world. Beginning in the 1980s, Arnett committed the remainder of his life to promoting and documenting self-taught Black artists from the American South, whose creations he considered an extension of the quest for civil and human rights into the arenas of cultural possibility and human imagination. Over the past four decades, his collections of Southern Black art forms, along with his book-publishing, exhibitions, and philanthropy, have immeasurably enriched the understanding of Black contributions to American civilization. He donated art to dozens of museums, and started and endowed the Souls Grown Deep Foundation. He is noted for bringing public attention to the work of numerous artists, such as Thornton Dial, Lonnie Holley, and the Gee’s Bend quiltmakers. As a devoted husband and father, Arnett also threw himself into his young sons’ interests and became a soccer coach and fan. Seeking to enhance the level of play in the Atlanta area, in the early 1980s he co-founded the Concorde Soccer Club (now Concorde Fire), which grew into one of the foremost youth soccer organizations in the U.S. A lover of music (opera, early rock ’n’ roll, reggae, etc.), travel, cinema, team sports, and cats, William Arnett lived his passions and, with his unflagging belief in them, made them everyone’s. Bill was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Judy, and his parents, Hilliard and Minna. He is survived by his four sons, Paul Hilliard Arnett (Erin Brauer), William Matthew Arnett (Virginia Prescott), Richard Harrison Arnett (and wife, Kim), and Thomas Robert Arnett (and wife, Erin); his eight grandchildren, Elizabeth Bailey Arnett, Samuel Hilliard Arnett, Malcolm Carver Vadim, Viva Vadim, Cynthia Judy Arnett, Kerris Sidney Arnett, Jack Thomas Arnett, and Vivienne Mitchell Arnett; and his brother, Robert Arnett.

["tracker_field_contentWikiPage_raw"]=> string(3451) "“Metaphorically speaking, I am betting on art.” William Sidney Arnett, pioneering art collector, patron, and philanthropist, was always a few decades ahead of his time. He devoted most of his adult life to championing previously underappreciated art forms and artists, from Sub-Saharan Africa to the Black American South. He died peacefully, at his time, age 81, on August 12th, in Atlanta. Born May 10, 1939, in Columbus, GA, to Hilliard B. Arenowitch and Minna Moses Arenowitch, Bill was a collector (marbles, comic books, baseball cards, butterflies) and standout athlete (especially baseball) from an early age. After attending Georgia Tech and the University of Pennsylvania, he graduated from the University of Georgia. He moved to London and quickly became a lifelong devotee of the visual arts, eventually traveling to more than sixty countries to study and collect art. In 1964, he married his high-school sweetheart, Judy Ann Mitchell, and together they settled in Atlanta and had four sons. With his brother, Robert Arnett, he became an art dealer and collector specializing in non-Western civilizations, including those of the Middle East, China, Southeast Asia, Oceania, Africa, and the Americas. He and Judy opened their art-filled home to visitors, art lovers, and acquaintances from all over the world. Beginning in the 1980s, Arnett committed the remainder of his life to promoting and documenting self-taught Black artists from the American South, whose creations he considered an extension of the quest for civil and human rights into the arenas of cultural possibility and human imagination. Over the past four decades, his collections of Southern Black art forms, along with his book-publishing, exhibitions, and philanthropy, have immeasurably enriched the understanding of Black contributions to American civilization. He donated art to dozens of museums, and started and endowed the Souls Grown Deep Foundation. He is noted for bringing public attention to the work of numerous artists, such as Thornton Dial, Lonnie Holley, and the Gee’s Bend quiltmakers. As a devoted husband and father, Arnett also threw himself into his young sons’ interests and became a soccer coach and fan. Seeking to enhance the level of play in the Atlanta area, in the early 1980s he co-founded the Concorde Soccer Club (now Concorde Fire), which grew into one of the foremost youth soccer organizations in the U.S. A lover of music (opera, early rock ’n’ roll, reggae, etc.), travel, cinema, team sports, and cats, William Arnett lived his passions and, with his unflagging belief in them, made them everyone’s. Bill was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Judy, and his parents, Hilliard and Minna. He is survived by his four sons, Paul Hilliard Arnett (Erin Brauer), William Matthew Arnett (Virginia Prescott), Richard Harrison Arnett (and wife, Kim), and Thomas Robert Arnett (and wife, Erin); his eight grandchildren, Elizabeth Bailey Arnett, Samuel Hilliard Arnett, Malcolm Carver Vadim, Viva Vadim, Cynthia Judy Arnett, Kerris Sidney Arnett, Jack Thomas Arnett, and Vivienne Mitchell Arnett; and his brother, Robert Arnett.
