SUMMARY:Fantastic Negrito at UC Theatre
DESCRIPTION:OCT 14 Fantastic Negrito (pictured) is a man’s truth told in the form of black roots music. Each song is a real story about a musician from Oakland who experienced the highs of a million dollar record deal\, the lows of a near fatal car accident that left him in a coma\, and is now in the phase of rebirth despite his playing hand being mangled. After a long break from music\, Fantastic Negrito won NPR’s inaugural Tiny Desk Contest in 2015. Since then he’s performed with artists including Chris Cornell\, Solange\, and Temple of the Dog\, and this year he will be touring with Sturgill Simpson. His first full-length album The Last Days of Oakland won the 2017 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album.\nTickets

SUMMARY:Soundtrack of the 60's: Berkeley Music Scene
DESCRIPTION:Exhibit at The Berkeley Historical Society \nOctober 8\, 2017 – April 1\, 2018\n\n\n\n\nWhile Berkeley did not have the large ballrooms of San Francisco\, it had a variety of small clubs and medium sized venues that saw many legendary performances during the decade of the 1960s. The Fall 2017 exhibit of the Berkeley Historical Society will focus on these venues and the unique contribution of Berkeley musicians to 1960s music. \n\n\nThe exhibit draws upon the extensive archives of Country Joe McDonald\, as well as little known photographs from the Historical Society and several private collections. From small folk singer gatherings in private homes to public stages\, Berkeley provided a rich milieu of opportunity for cross genre inspiration and creativity. Country Joe and the Fish\, the Joy of Cooking and Creedence Clearwater Revival all had their start in Berkeley. \n\n\nA timeline of major national and international events will provide context for local musical developments. Other parts of the exhibit will focus on local recording studios\, the Berkeley Folk Festival\, the rock scene\, rhythm and blues\, the role of music in the protest movement and the career of Country Joe McDonald. Clothing and other artifacts of the period will also be on display. \n\n\nThe opening reception\, from 2-5 PM on Sunday\, October 8\, will feature live musical performances by Country Joe McDonald and surprise guests. The exhibit will run through April 1\, 2018. Additional programming during the course of the exhibit will include panel discussions and interviews with people who were active in the 1960s music scene. \n\nHistory Center hours are 1-4 PM\, Thursday through Saturday\n\nAdmission free\, donations welcome; wheelchair accessible\n\nBerkeley Historical Society and Berkeley History Center \n1931 Center Street\, Berkeley\n510-848-0181
