The Sterling Silver Club and Artown are partnering up for it’s Cultural Connections concert series. Club members and their guest will get to choose from one concert of choice (July 6, 13, 20 or 27). Join us in a roped-off area at Wingfield Park, providing a fun night of music and cultural connections. Please choose from only one of the concerts to allow all members to participate in our Artown concert series.  RSVP required. Members must bring their own low-back chair. Artown’s July 6 concert: Monobloco – Brazilian Carnival drumming and percussion Gate/Door Opens: 5 p.m. Concert time: 7:30 to 9 p.m. Monobloco is a Brazilian “bloco”, or street band, that plays during Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro and is also a professional touring show. Unlike most of Rio’s blocos, which tend to play one type of music (typically samba), Monobloco has become extremely popular among younger people because of its ‘fresh’ sound, playing a mix of various rhythms such as coco, ciranda, marchinha, xote, samba, contemporary R&B, and particularly samba-rock and funk. It continues to grow in popularity each year and can be seen as a symbol of the resurging popularity in Carnaval blocos in Rio de Janeiro. The group was formed by members of rock band Pedro Luís e A Parede in 2000 as an education project and continues to run a percussion course each year. However, the group’s popularity soon led to the creation of a professional touring band, the Monobloco Show, which has toured extensively around Brazil and has also travelled internationally.

Please choose from only one of the concerts to allow all members to participate in our Artown concert series.  RSVP required. Members must bring their own low-back chair. Artown’s July 13 concert: Sunny Jain’s Wild Wild East Gate/Door Opens: 5 p.m. Concert time: 7:30 to 9 p.m. Sunny Jain’s Wild Wild East (Smithsonian Folkways 2020) encompasses myriad facets of Jain’s identity both as a first-generation South Asian–American and as a global musician, from his own family’s immigration story to his eclectic musical upbringing. In recasting the immigrant—steeped in the courage to leave a familiar homeland for a new beginning—as the modern-day cowboy and cowgirl, Jain sources musical inspiration from the scores of Bollywood classics and Spaghetti Westerns, Punjabi folk traditions, jazz improvisation, and rollicking psychedelic and surf guitar styles. Sunny Jain’s Wild Wild East is rooted in the contemporary global soundscape, singing in a new voice, “I am large, I contain multitudes.” The beating heart of the vibrant and varied career of composer/drummer Sunny Jain is a celebration of cultural diaspora: deep-rooted tradition that ripples outward, changing – and being changed by – the cultures that it touches. Jain deftly blends the modern and the traditional, the personal and the communal, the inventive and the festive. He’s most known for founding the band Red Baraat, a frenzied fusion of bhangra, hip-hop, jazz, rock, and sheer, unbridled energy that NPR has called “the best party band in years.” Watch Sunny Jain’s Wild Wild East here: https://youtu.be/jxFgHKGrqQo

The Sterling Silver Club presents complimentary tickets to a Sunday Jazz Concert at the Reno Little Theater – 147 E. Pueblo St. Reno, 89502. The July 17th performance features The Jazzettes. As a valued club member, you and a guest will get to enjoy an evening of unforgettable live music. RSVP is required and space is limited. Seating will be assigned based on first-come first-serve arrival. The Jazzettes are long-time friends Cami Thompson on percussion, Erika Paul on piano, and Julie Machado on bass – playing an eclectic mix of jazz, blues, standards, pop, rock, vintage classics, and comic delights. They all sing, often in 3-part harmony, and have a great deal of fun making and sharing music, and laughing! Between the three of them are about 150 years of music education and professional stage time, but they refuse to act their age! Join the Jazzettes for a night of musical magic! Please note of the Safety Protocols for this venue: MASKS & VACCINATIONS ARE RECOMMENDED. Live theatre means large gatherings of people sitting in close quarters for long periods of time – so we continue to encourage vaccinations and masks, but we will no longer be enforcing these requirements unless the county is listed as “VERY HIGH” or “SEVERE” on the Truckee Meadows Covid risk meter at covidriskmeter.org. Please click here to view the full Safety Protocols for this location. This concert is exclusively provided to Sterling Silver Club members.
