SUMMARY:Making Movies w/ El Leon & The Strangers
DESCRIPTION:Winterruption 2024 featuring Making Movies – Sunday\, January 28\, 2024 at 8:00pm\n\n\nSiembra y llegará. As Making Movies delivers its fourth album\, XOPA\, the Kansas City band proves true the maxim which\, in English\, is like an encouraging version of “reap what you sow.” Meant to inspire its recipient to push forward\, the phrase is chanted on the LP’s multi-movement epic\, “La Primera Radio” — but it’s exemplary\, too\, of Making Movies’ musical odyssey.  \nThis is a band that makes American music with an asterisk: because Making Movies’ sound encompasses the entirety of the Americas\, not solely the country inarguably centered in mainstream everything. It’s through this broader perspective that Making Movies crunches classic rock into Latin American rhythms — African-derived percussion and styles like rumba\, merengue\, mambo and cumbia — in a way that feels oddly familiar\, yet delivers the invigorating chills of hearing something singularly special.  \nEach member — Enrique Chi\, vocalist\, guitarist\, and songwriter; his brother Diego Chi\, bassist and experimental vocalist; percussionist Juan-Carlos Chaurand; and Duncan Burnett\, newly incorporated into the band on drums — is enthusiastically committed to music history\, to uncovering connections between genres and cultures both their own and otherwise. They’re all lifelong musicians too\, hailing from disparate yet similar backgrounds — parents that cherished music\, fathers that kickstarted cultural movements\, families in which gospel is critical to their very existence.  \n“The goal is to create music that includes every bit of our individual identities\,” Enrique says. “Music is our way to find a deeper understanding of our own stories. It’s a healing of sorts.”  \nBut none of this earned understanding precludes the group’s perpetual evolving. Enrique Chi\, lead vocalist\, guitarist\, and songwriter\, is compelled to share knowledge\, but like any sincere historian\, though\, he also listens. It’s impossible to know everything; in musical lore and its future there is still so much yet to be uncovered. \nThe band’s collective yearning for exploration has attracted a nexus of connections\, many of them legendary players\, like Steve Berlin of iconic rock band Los Lobos\, a recurring collaborator and steadfast champion of the band. An approach from beloved Panamanian musician Rubén Blades led to joint songs like “No te Calles” and “Cómo Perdonar.” Making Movies has also created with indie-folk band Hurray for the Riff Raff\, trumpeter Asdru Sierra of Ozomatli\, Puerto Rican salsero Frankie Negrón\, and all-female mariachi group Flor de Toloache. On the heels of Making Movies’ 2019 album ameri’kana\, the band worked on an eponymous documentary series\, through which they connected with the legendary organist Reverend Charles Hodges\, an soul music pioneer who played alongside Al Green\, and fellow Memphis\, Tennessee\, musicians the Sensational Barnes Brothers. \nMaking Movies creates music that is undoubtedly pedagogical\, yet inarguably kinetic. And their live shows\, despite the precision with which they perform\, are not lacking in dynamism. Every time they perform\, they are wholly present\, feeling every original groove with the same rush of as when they first found it.

SUMMARY:Diaspora
DESCRIPTION:A Special Presentation as part of the Architecture and Design Film Festival: a film screening\, panel and fundraiser for Ukraine\n\n\n“This eye-catching indie treat falls somewhere between love letter to a disappearing neighbourhood\, delirious ode to diasporic alienation and yearning\, and a darkly comic trip into the absurd. Think Lynch or Jarmusch\, if they’d been raised on the Polish delis\, Turkish shishkebobs and wheelies nights in the ‘Peg’s North End. Every shot is fantastic and feels weirdly alive.” — Stir B.C. \nArriving in Winnipeg’s North End in search of a better\, safer life\, young Ukrainian immigrant Eva finds a city filled with rundown\, outdated establishments and a disproportional number of other\, culturally diverse immigrants all too in search for a new life; each desperately holding onto their own language and culture\, creating a neighbourhood of comedic miscommunication\, growing apathy and oft painful alienation. \nFilmed amongst the fading architecture of Winnipeg’s North End and Downtown core and performed in 25 different languages\, DIASPORA seeks to uncover the heartbreaking struggles and absurdity tied to arriving in a new land. Ukrainian newcomer Yuliia Ghuzva\, winner of the Best Actor Award at the 2023 Gimli Film Festival\, delivers an unflinching\, stellar performance in this wholly unique feature film that is a love letter to a disappearing Winnipeg. \nWinner of the Best Feature Film at the Ukrainian Dream Film Festival\, Best Feature Film and Best Producer at the International Motion Picture Awards\, Winner of Best Actor at the Gimli Film Festival\, Winner of Best Cinematography at the Wallachia International Film Festival and nominee for Best Main Title Theme Music at the Canadian Screen Music Awards; DIASPORA has screened across Canada and internationally including in war torn Ukraine. \nWinnipeg filmmaker Deco Dawson\, known for his bold\, cinematic stylings and love for Winnipeg\, has won the Best Short Film Awards at the Toronto International Film Festival twice\, The Mayor’s Arts Award\, the Winnipeg Film Group Hothouse Award\, and has been host to retrospectives of his work worldwide. Dawson continues to blur the lines between narrative\, experimental and documentary\, crweating thought proviking\, stirring cinema for over 20 years. Dawson most recently collaborated with Winnipeg’s Rusalka Dancers\, designing the projections for their 60th Anniversary Gala Concert.

SUMMARY:Daniel Champagne
DESCRIPTION:Daniel Champagne at the West End Cultural Centre – Saturday\, April 27\, 2024 at 8:00pm\n\n\nDaniel Champagne lives and breathes live music. The Australian virtuoso has been described as “the finest guitar player of this generation”\, “a leading light in acoustic music” and “a performer that must be seen to be believed” and from March to June 2024\, music lovers across Canada will be treated to an intimate live experience not to be missed. \nGrowing up in the Bega Valley\, on the Far South Coast of New South Wales Australia\, the story goes that the young singer-songwriter and one of a kind guitar virtuoso first picked up his instrument of choice as a 5-year-old following in the footsteps of a musical father. He began writing songs at 12\, training classically throughout his teens and performing wherever he could\, honing his craft and developing the dynamite live show that he is renowned for today. At 18 he finished school\, turned professional and hit the road without looking back. \nThe following 15 years have seen him independently release 7 studio albums\, tour relentlessly around the globe\, play some of the biggest festivals under the sun and share stages with the likes of Tommy Emmanuel\, INXS\, John Butler\, Lucinda Williams\, Ani DiFranco\, Judy Collins and Rodrigo y Gabriela. \nPlaying upwards of 250 shows a year\, Daniel is passionate about spreading live music around the world and on the back of a sold out 2022 tour tour\, his return trip will include 56 shows from Vancouver Island all the way out to Newfoundland!
