    logo_sedonahubSedona AZ (June 12, 2018) – One For The Foxes, an exciting and dynamic transatlantic trio, brings a rousing blend of Irish and American folk music to Sedona having already won over audiences on both sides of the ocean. From energetic fiddle tunes and beautiful ballads and songs, the traditional as well as originals, this concert on Tuesday June 19th at 7pm at the Hub is one you’ll want to catch.

    The group is made up of Dublin’s Tadhg Ó Meachair (Goitse), Galway’s Dave Curley (SLIDE) and Denver, Colorado’s Joanna Hyde (The Hydes), and features a mix of Irish and American folk music and song. Their performances draw on the stories found in ballads across both sides of the Atlantic and the respective instrumental music traditions of these places.

    Award-winning instrumentalists each in their own right, Dave, Tadhg & Joanna take a unique twist on the diverse strengths of their individual backgrounds, weaving between traditional melodies, their own compositions, and songs from the broader folk canon. They recently joined forces and talents to create the special blend that is ‘One For The Foxes’. The results are highly personalized and thrilling in their daring and forthright grasp of their material. 

    Through a shared deep-rooted passion for Irish traditional music, this trio highlights the vital role of Irish traditional music as an origin of much American folk music, and explores how those styles can interact with one another in a manner both eclectic and grounded. Having collaborated on the recently-released ‘One for the Foxes’ CD, they are now touring the US.

    This concert is brought to Sedona by Living Traditions Presentations, dedicated to bringing world class Celtic Music to Northern Arizona. Established by Ron Barton and his daughter about 8 years ago, it was born out of a passion for (and playing) Irish and Scottish music. 

    Dave Curley, a multi-instrumentalist, singer, and dancer, has been making big waves in the Irish music scene in Ireland, Europe and the USA in the last number of years. He was a creative member of award-winning bands SLIDE and RUNA and regularly performs with Grammy Award winner Moya Brennan of Clannad. More recently, Dave has been performing with ‘Instrumental band of the Decade’ The Brock McGuire Band and also recorded with producer Donal Lunny and Grammy award Winners Ron Block, Jeff Taylor and Buddy Greene. His most recent record, ‘A Brand New Day’, showcases his vocals and writing style which has a contemporary sensibility whilst rooted in tradition.

    Tadhg Ó Meachair grew up in an Irish-speaking home, and studied the Irish language to University level and has established himself as a force in the world of traditional Irish music. Among the various awards for piano, piano accordion and accompaniment he recently won an All-Ireland piano title. Along with extensive tours of the US and Europe (with Goitse), he has also performed on stages from Ireland’s National Concert Hall to Music Crossroads in Zambia, the infamous Festival Interceltique de Lorient to a garden party hosted by the President of Ireland. 

    Joanna Hyde’s musical talents include classical, Irish, Cape Brenton, Texas swing, bluegrass, American folk among other styles.  Joanna graduated magna cum laude from Colorado College with a BA in Music in 2009, and in 2011 received a Jack Kent Cook Foundation’s Graduate Arts Award. She moved to Ireland for three years teaching at the University of Limerick’s Irish World Academy of Music and Dance, studying Irish traditional music and graduating with an MA in Irish Traditional Music Performance in 2014.

    Joanna currently splits her time between Colorado and Ireland, performing and teaching. She is known for her collaboration with her brother, guitarist Iain Hyde, as well as with husband and Irish pianist/accordionist (and fellow One for the Foxes band member) Tadhg Ó Meachair .

    The Irish influence on American musical styles is deeply rooted, continuing to sparkle and evolve. Come and hear it live, in person, on Tuesday June 19th at 7pm when ‘One For The Foxes’ takes to the intimate stage at the Hub.

     THE MOMENT IS UPON US

    Dear Sedona,

    The moment is upon us. The time for a united effort to shift the focus back to our community is now.

    The ability to thrive in our community, our environment, our workforce, and the tourist industry, is entirely possible because we have all the resources needed for success.

    Still, we need a council that isn’t afraid to ask the hard questions, that makes decisions based on data and facts, and through discussion, rather than moving and voting in group unison as they so regularly do.

    This is my home. I have been a part of the Sedona community for 28 years. I witnessed the road debacle, the lack of planning, the city circumventing the local businesses ability to thrive, while making choices to expand the local government and be in direct competition with private industry.

    I am a unique candidate because unlike the incumbents, I don’t believe the government should expand in size, nor in operations, nor would I attempt to micromanage every aspect of our community.

    City government should stay in its lane and allow the competitive market of local private industry to prosper. And it should defend our community from corporate takeover and infiltration of our town.

    I do not agree that we should sign onto International Building Codes and regulations by signing Sedona up to the ICC. It is imperative that we remain a sweet, rural community.

    Where are the arts? Where is this organic thriving element that we allege to be animated by. Where is our culture? Where is our community?

    The discord between the decision making process and the desires of the community have never been more clear. It has been nearly a decade in the making.

    It is time for a new era of energy to take charge. An energy that is reflective in the ability to succeed rather than be trapped in out of date consciousness.

    It has been a great honor meeting with each of you. I hear your concerns over the insane and out of control spending and I echo them. A budget of $105,000,000 in a town of 9700 residents is completely unacceptable. A parking structure (that looks like a shoe box) originally slated to cost 11 million, now projected to cost 18 million, is incomprehensible. Especially, considering there is no intention of charging for parking.

    For those who are concerned that I lack the political experience within our established system- that is precisely what Sedona needs… Not another politician, but instead a person who understands people, who listens to the voices within the community, and who will act in service on their behalf with accountability, for the highest good of Sedona. What I am not, will prove to be an asset as I navigate the entrenched bureaucracy with a fresh perspective. Business as usual, is over.

    Creative solutions require new energy.

    Every decision that is made by our local government, must contemplate Sedona first.

    • Does this decision benefit the residents?
    • Does this decision benefit the local businesses?
    • Does this decision actually help the environment?
    • Will this decision sustain benefit in the future, or will it bring more problems?

    What we have now is a city government that expands to 165 employees for 9700 residents. Palm Desert has 53,000 residents and 119 city employees. Majority of our city department heads are not even in town. I find this problematic.

    Efforts towards championing in and courting new solutions for our medical needs are imperative. We are losing our doctors. We must encourage competition with other facilities rather than be held hostage by NAH, who clearly have their own set of dysfunctions.

    We must remember that so many move to Sedona for its beauty, hiking, and small town charm. Bigger, faster, and more concrete does not, in broad strokes, fit the ethos of Sedona.

    The old world must remain strong here in balance, as that is what visitors want to experience. Too many have noted that Sedona has lost its edge and charm.

    As Mayor I will preserve the rural charm of our community, and push back against the urbanization that is planned for Sedona.

    As mayor I will make it a priority to create opportunities to support our youth.  After school healthy, enriching programs should be created for our kids, and available to the Sedona workforce regardless of residency and regardless of school they belong to.

    As Mayor, I will create an agenda to deliberately embody the consciousness of our collective needs here, allowing private industry to meet the needs of our community rather than bigger government.

    I hope to have your vote on Aug 2nd. I am excited and have the energy to take on this leadership role with new eyes, community perspective, and the thoughtful consciousness that reflects all ages of the human spectrum.

    Thank you deeply for your consideration.

    Sincerely,

    Samaire Armstrong

    Armstrong vs. Jablow: The Main Event
    Ready to Rumble

    By Tommy Acosta
    In the Blue Corner stands Scott Jablow and in the Red Corner of the ring stands Samaire Armstrong, ready to rumble to the bitter end in their fight to become the next Sedona mayor. Jablow weighs in with 1,137 primary election votes (36.13%) under his belt, having wielded his advantage as sitting Sedona City Council vice-mayor to his favor. He brings his years of serving in that capacity into the fray and waged a solid fight in his campaign to make it to the run-off. Armstrong, however withstood a blistering smear campaign from the other opposing candidates and their supporters to make it to the final bout with 967 votes under her belt (30.73%), an amazing feat for a political newcomer. Unfortunately, for the other two candidates, Kurt Gehlbach and sitting mayor Sandy Moriarty, neither put up enough of a fight to make it to the championship bout. Read more→
