SHOPPING IN SANTA FE From the time of the ancient Anazasi, the Santa Fe area has been a trading center. The Santa Fe Trail is synonymous with the romance of the old west, and from the time of New Mexico statehood in 1912, Santa Fe has been a multicultural art center and shoppers’ paradise.

Santa Fe is a top US art center, with museums, shopping, Year-round outdoor activities, top flight restaurants, spas, and world famous cultural events. It’s not just your grandparents’ Santa Fe, it’s walkable, historic, charming, and exciting.A high desert destination of distinction and fun.

THERE’S JOY IN EVERY SEASON in Santa Fe and this, the dead of winter, is no exception. Santa Fe is blessed with so many things to do that often we push some of the less conspicuous activities to the side when instead we should be embracing yet another special, insight-bearing experience. Two examples come to mind.

The first is the Santa Fe Symphony’s performance of Mahler’s Sym-phony No. 1, which is a tremendous work being presented on Sunday, January 18, at The Lensic. The symphony’s financial health allows it to stage larger works like this one, which requires a full ensemble of percussionists and other musicians. This is a magnificent symphony to experience live, as it’s rich with drama and intensity.

Another event, perhaps a bit more under the radar, is the new-est exhibit at the Pablita Velarde Museum of Indian Women in the Arts on Cathedral Place. The exhibit, Out of the Ordinary, features a retrospective of Pablita’s work, which is arranged in chronological order so that viewers can witness the development of this incredible artist’s talent and vision. Accompanied by Pablita’s granddaughter, Margarete Bagshaw, I was recently treated to a personal tour and given the opportunity to ask specific questions of Margarete. The exhibit ends with the piece of art that was on Pablita’s easel when she passed.

This is the perfect weekend for doing something just a little different, and these two activities are ideal outings for a Sunday in January. It’s warm and wonderful inside.

Supporting local businesses is a great New Year’s resolution, especially

when those businesses are breweries. On January 23, the New Mexico Brewers’ Guild makes it easy to do just that with its fourth annual WinterBrew celebration.

“This is the first beer festival of the year and the first festival the Guild ever produced,” says NMBG Beer Ambassador Chris Goblet. “It’s the first party after the holidays are over.”

Entrance to the event, which features 16 of the state’s finest breweries, gets you a limited-edition pint glass and a ticket for one full beer. (“When you find one you like, we want you to enjoy it,” Goblet says.) But how does one choose between a Nut Brown from Second Street or an Elevated IPA from La Cumbre? That’s where the fun begins: guests can sample the more than 70 beers on tap to their hearts’ content—or until the beer runs out.

Red Door Brewing and Ponderosa Brewing, both of which are based in Albuquerque, and Roosevelt Brewing Company, in Portales, are the newest additions to the WinterBrew lineup. Longtime favorites La Cumbre, Marble, Second Street, Santa Fe, and Tractor will also be present, as will Abbey, Taos Mesa, Sierra Blanca/Rio Grande, Bosque, Duel, and Turtle Mountain. Food will be available from many of the breweries as well as from restaurants like Blue Corn. “We try to feature our brew pubs,” Goblet says.

With so much food and drink, space will be tight, but that’s intentional. “Everyone is cozy and packed in,” Goblet notes. “It’s a chance to party with the 800 best beer drinkers in Santa Fe.”—WS

Souper Bowl Not sure what to serve at your Super Bowl party this year?

Find some inspiration two weeks prior at The Food Depot’s 21st annual Souper Bowl, a popular event that dedicates 100 percent of its proceeds to feeding people experiencing hunger. With its delicious soup tastings courtesy of the area’s finest chefs, the Souper Bowl “is one of [the] most beloved events in Santa Fe,” says organizer Jill Gentry. “It’s the best way to get a sampling of what 30 of our best restaurants have to offer.” Attendees will vote for the overall Best Soup in Santa Fe as well as the Best Cream Soup, Best Savory Soup, Best Seafood Soup, and Best Vegetarian Soup. “I’ve seen a real spirit of camaraderie,” Gentry says. “People want to engage with each other and with the restaurants.” The 2014 Best Soup and Best Savory Soup awards went to Terra, at the Four Seasons Resort Rancho Encantado, for its winter squash and chorizo concoction. “We heard the rave reviews of our soup and kept seeing our name on the big screen, which made the team work even harder,” says Andrew Cooper, Terra’s chef. “We had to make 10 more gallons of soup because so many people were requesting it. We created a ‘crave-able’ soup!”

Cooper and his crew plan to participate again this year. “The Terra team will take any chance they can to work with The Food Depot to help feed children and families in need,” he says. “The Souper Bowl gives us a chance to reach hundreds of people as well as spend time with other great culinary minds of the Santa Fe community.”—Whitney Spivey

Doc Sportello is high on weed and worse (or better) throughout his deep dive into the dangerous 1970s L.A. underworld. It’s hard to know what’s literal in director Paul Thomas Anderson’s Inherent Vice, because we’re following Doc, and he’s so brazenly stoned the whole time. Joaquin Phoenix plays the role with his eyes bugged-out and constantly blinking. Doc’s a private investigator who takes notes as he moves from clue to clue, but the notes aren’t names or addresses, they’re comments like “possible hallucination” or “paranoia” or “something Spanish.”

Doc is sad in a totally normal way—he’s hung up on his ex-old lady, Shasta Fay Hepworth (Katherine Waterston). She glows in the moonlight, re-entering Doc’s life at the beginning of the film when she presents him with a case that centers on her real-estate tycoon lover being scammed by his wife and her lover. A conflicted Doc takes the case and then a few more, all involving the same key players.

Based on a novel by Thomas Pynchon, Inherent Vice moves in the tradition of Raymond Chandler (carried on notably in The Big Lebowski), where the central character enters a conspiratorial mystery that spins so wildly out of control it becomes next to impossible to keep the elements straight. In one scene Doc snorts strange powder with a mad dentist in a fang-shaped skyscraper; in another he’s fighting a lumpy biker thug with a swastika face tattoo. Along the way he dodges feds and the LAPD and bites off a decent little mission involving an addict musician named Coy Harlington (Owen Wilson).

Anderson crafts modern masterpieces. Inherent Vice isn’t as ferociously psychological as There Will Be Blood and The Master, but it’s a different animal, a winding, funny Pynchon story of weirdoes with great names. As ever in an Anderson film, fantastic actors excel, especially Josh Brolin as a mean yet vaguely sweet cop/actor named Bigfoot Bjornson. It’s Phoenix who gives this film its pumping heart, though. He’s smart and cool, sad and tough, high and losing it. Doc looks like he should be home taking a nap, but what fun would that be?—Phil Parker

by Whitney SpiveyBig Head Todd and the MonstersBOULDER-BASED ROCKERS Big Head Todd and the Monsters are no strangers to the City Different. “Because we started out in Colorado and drove around in a van, Santa Fe was a place we could actually get to fast,” says lead singer and guitarist Todd Park Mohr. “We have some fond memories of hanging out.”

Relaxing isn’t something the band members do often, though—they’ve been together since 1986 and, Mohr says, “work pretty consistently throughout the year.” Twenty-nine years, countless tours, and 10 studio albums later, BHTM finds itself back in Santa Fe for a performance on January 27.

“The show is an evening at The Lensic, which gives us a lot of time,” Mohr says. “This is going to be the first time in a long time that we’ll be going out featuring ourselves, which we’re really looking forward to.”

The January 27 concert will be the band’s 11th show of the

a rock ‘n’ roll night at The Lensic

New Year. “We’ll be in a really nice groove by then,” Mohr notes. “We’re looking forward to having very different sets every night and being able to accommodate a lot of requests.”

Mohr estimates that most audience members have seen the band in concert previously. He looks forward to playing them old favorites (“Bittersweet,” “Resignation Superman”) as well as new songs from BHTM’s most recent album, Black Beehive, which was released early last year.

“Expect rock ‘n’ roll with a lot of blues and folk involved in the show,” Mohr says, adding that he can’t be much more specific than that. “What we’re about these days is spontaneity and abandoning our plan. I can’t tell you exactly what’s going to happen, but it’s going to be fun.”

Big Head Todd and the Monsters, January 27, 7:30 pm, $30–$42, The Lensic Performing Arts Center, 211 W San Francisco, heathconcerts.org

The Madwoman of Chaillotthe French classic premieres at the Santa Fe Playhouse

by Ashley M. Big gers

WITH THE JANUARY 8 PREMIERE of Jean Giraudoux’s 1943 play The Madwoman of Chaillot, the Santa Fe Playhouse raised the curtain on a production that features one of the largest ensemble casts in its 94-year history.

Barbara Hatch, co-secretary of the Playhouse board and managing director of Theater Grottesco, pitched the satirical fairy tale to her fellow board members, who promptly gave her their approval. Hatch, who’s directing the production, says the 72-year-old play is timeless and that, although she didn’t have overt political intentions when choosing the work, the themes will resonate with a contemporary audience.

Set in Paris, the story follows the attempts of three characters—the Prospector, the President, and the Baron—to dig up the City of Light in search of oil, which they believe lies under its streets, while Countess Aurelia (the Madwoman) and other “society marginals” attempt to stop them. The countess, her friends, and a group of vagabonds put the unscrupulous businessmen on trial in the countess’s cellar, and, not surprisingly, havoc ensues.

Jennifer Graves star in The Madwoman of Chaillot at the Santa Fe Playhouse.

“[The play] is about a deeper philosophy [about] the greed of men and [how] there are certain men who are only in the world to make a profit and are only seeking to further themselves, with no concern for the environment or other people,” Hatch says. “It’s beautifully written, with different layers and messages. It’s both funny and poignant.”

Hatch, who describes herself as a classicist, has remained true to the play’s time period, which gives her a rich tapestry of settings and costumes to draw from. She worked with her cast of 24, which ranges in age from 13 to over 70, to give every character a rich backstory and thereby create a cohesive whole. Karen Leigh leads the cast as the titular character, and Rod Harrison plays her associate, the Ragpicker.

Though many audience members will be familiar with the play, Hatch says she hopes they feel a bit of surprise at seeing how the ending unfolds with this cast.

The Madwoman of Chaillot, through February 1, Thursday–Saturday, 7:30 pm, Sunday, 2 pm, $10–$20, Santa Fe Playhouse, 142 E De Vargas, santafeplayhouse.org

tour the city’s oldest microbrewery by Whitney Spivey

“THE TOUR IS DELAYED FOR no other reason than this is Santa Fe,” says the man in red overalls. “If you have somewhere else to be, what are you doing at a brewery?”

Most of the people gathered in the taproom of Santa Fe Brewing Company look confused for a second, then shrug, then order another beer. It’s noon.

By 12:10 pm, the man in the red overalls returns. He introduces himself as Bill, a small-batch brewer, which means he makes beer in 10-gallon lots. “Some of them come out awesome,” he says, raising a beaker filled with his latest saison. “Some of them get dumped down the drain.”

Although SFB’s one-off beers are fun and quirky (last month, Coal in Your Stocking Stout and Flaming Reindeer were among the limited-batch holiday-inspired brews), it’s the company’s staples—the Pale Ale, the Happy Camper IPA, the State Pen Porter, etc.—that people who tour the brewery want to learn more about.

And so with that in mind, Bill, now wearing a floppy straw hat, leads the group onto a platform surrounded by massive cisterns and begins explaining the brewing process—from the delivery of Colorado hops to the in-house canning and bottling process. En route to the keg room, the final stop on the tour, he talks about the history of the company—how it was started in 1988 in an old horse barn in Galisteo and how it’s currently expanding its headquarters by 300 percent to include a beer garden and underground barrel storage.

And it’s not just SFB that’s growing. “We’ve seen incredible growth in brewing across New Mexico,” Bill tells the group. “We’ve got such a good beer scene now—you struggle to see a bad brewery.”

But of the two-dozen-plus breweries in the state, Santa Fe Brewing remains the largest. The facility at the top of the Turquoise Trail pumped out an impressive 18,000 barrels of beer in 2013—that works out to about four pints for every person in New Mexico. Have you had yours yet?

Santa Fe Brewing Company tours, Saturdays, 12 pm, free, 35 Fire Place, santafebrewing.com

barley backstory As you tour the Santa Fe Brewing Company, you’ll notice several rubber chickens hanging limply from the rafters or door handles. The plastic poultry dangles in honor of the brewery’s barley wine, which was developed shortly after dead chickens kept turning up at the company’s original location in Galisteo. Turns out (according to Bill) that Petey, the farm dachshund, was responsible for the deaths. So, when brewers were trying to come up with a name for their fierce (10 percent alcohol) new concoction, they named it “Chicken Killer” after Petey. The label features the infamous pup holding two smoking pistols with a dead fowl at his feet.

Jambo CaféOnce a year, Jambo Café owner Ahmed Obo travels to Africa to visit his family, to work at the clinic he helps fund, and to shop at the local markets. The dish pictured here—Lamu coconut pili pili shrimp over basmati rice with sautéed garlic spinach—features ingredients typical of the cuisine of Lamu, Obo’s home island, which is off the coast of Kenya. “On a [spiciness] scale of one to 10, pili pili is a 10,” Obo says of the red chili pepper. “We adjust it to five, or medium hot, for this dish.” The Jambo Imports store, which recently opened next door to the café, carries many of the spices that flavor Jambo’s signature dishes as well as African clothing, drums, and folk art. A percentage of the proceeds from the restaurant and store benefit the Jambo Kids Foundation, a nonprofit organization Obo cofounded in 2013 that provides healthcare to Lamu residents.—Cristina OldsJambo Café, 2010 Cerrillos, jambocafe.net

Six Under Thirty-SixSanta Fe Clay showcase s the work of young ceramicists

SANTA FE CLAY, WHICH frequently features the work of master ceramicists in its gallery, is giving a nod to a younger generation of artists from across the U.S. with its show Six Under Thirty-Six.

“We wanted to have a conversation in the gallery about what we saw people in our age group doing and about what was exciting to us as ceramicists and artists,” says studio manager H. P. Bloomer,

who co-curated the show with gallery assistant Natasha Ribeiro.

The selected artists—Emily Duke, Linda Lopez, Brooks Oliver, Peter Pincus, Adam Shiverdecker, and Matt Ziemke—have unique styles but all use vibrant colors and striking designs in their work. These emerg-ing leaders in their field are also eschewing pure func-tionality in the name of fine art, as can be seen in their featured work (four to seven items each).

Pincus creates the most functional pieces in the group, but even his are sculptural vessels, as seen with Bottle and Cup, which is emblazoned with a primary, mod-pattern porcelain slip. Adam Shiverdecker’s work hints at functionality, but it’s really just a hint. He deconstructs the traditional form of Greek ceramic vessels, making them appear as though they were pulled from the ashes of Pompei and walking the line between historical and contemporary influences. Emily Duke’s work also plays up dichotomies—between masculine and feminine, and between industrial tools (her subject) and handcrafted work (her trade). “I look to the formal geometry of a shop wrench or a push broom, then impose new pro-portions and methods of fabrication in clay,” she says.

Co-curator Ribeiro says she hopes viewers see the versatility of the show’s medium—and perhaps that of the artists who choose to work with it. Bloomer agrees. “I want viewers to see that artists are moving beyond the tradi-tional brown pots of the 1960s and ’70s craft movement. I’m not putting that movement down, but I do want people to open their eyes to see what else is going on.”

Tom Joyce the layered strength—and meaning—of the celebrated blacksmith’s work

THE WONDROUS thing about iron, notes Tom Joyce, is that it almost never gets thrown away. And each time iron is forged and reused, something of the material’s previous life is literally folded inside the new. It’s what Joyce calls the “ferrous DNA” of iron, and it adds layers of often-hidden meaning to his art.

In the early 1970s, a teenaged Joyce apprenticed with black-smith Peter Wells in El Rito and soon began practicing the trade on his own. His neighbors brought him broken farming imple-ments, and he reforged the iron into new hardware, tools, and art. Today the 58-year-old artist works a similar magic but on a much larger scale. Most of his public sculptures are produced at an industrial forge near Chicago, where Joyce joins a highly skilled team to turn tons of salvaged iron into artworks of his own design.

Among those works is Two to One, seven stacked pairs of solid stainless-steel cubes that have a soft, claylike appearance. The sculpture was installed last May in front of the Museum of Arts and Design in New York City, with a dedication set for March 2015. Each piece incorporates remnants from items that were manufactured for the military, mining, aeronautics, or energy industries. And while Joyce is aware of the specific lineage of the steel he incorporates, for viewers it remains an “indecipherable and mysterious part of the story,” he says.

The story behind the material in another of Joyce’s public works is well known, however. Using steel from the World Trade Center ruins, the artist forged letters that today stretch across a concrete wall at the National September 11 Memorial Museum in New York City. Honoring the lives lost during the 2001 ter-rorist attacks, the letters spell out a line from Virgil’s epic poem The Aeneid: “No day shall erase you from the memory of time.”

This thoughtful and thought-provoking approach is one reason Joyce has gained international acclaim since setting up his Santa Fe studio in 1977. Among his many honors are a MacArthur Fellowship, the New Mexico Governor’s Award for Excellence in the Arts, the Rotary Foundation’s Distinguished Artist of the Year Award, the United States Artists’ Award, and, most recently, an honorary doctorate from Santa Fe University of Art and Design. Joyce’s artwork has been acquired by nu-merous museums and other public collections, and his museum involve-ment has taken on another dimension thanks to his role as guest curator for Striking Iron: The Art of African Blacksmiths. The first major international exhibition of work by African blacksmiths from ancient times to the present, Striking Iron opens in 2016 at UCLA’s Fowler Museum and then travels throughout the United States and Europe.

Joyce says that he always wanted to live in Europe, and today he divides his time between Santa Fe and Belgium. In his Brussels design studio he works on drawings, clay models, and other preparatory processes before producing sculptures in iron back in the United States. He’s also delving more deeply into drawing and photography, and in the summer of 2015 he’ll display such works alongside his sculptures and lithographs in a solo exhibition at James Kelly Contemporary in Santa Fe.

For a recent piece titled Thicket, which Joyce created for the Mint Museum Uptown in Charlotte, North Carolina, and which will be dedicated in July 2015, the artist drew on remnant steel from his Santa Fe studio. Thicket incorporates clusters of stainless-steel rods radiating from nuclei of hammerheads, which are cast from set-aside bits of steel from every project he’s ever made.

In Joyce’s view, there’s no distinction between hard-won, finely honed skills of the hands and the deeply creative spirit that uses them to produce fine art. As he puts it, “I’ve always chosen to walk both paths simultaneously.”

I Want to Believe (maybe)when ar t and sc ience f ict ion col l ide


THE MYSTERIES OF the universe inspired the works in I Want to Believe (maybe), a new show that opens January 17 at Offroad Productions. A relatively new gallery located in Santa Fe’s Siler District, Offroad Productions hosts quarterly shows featuring visual art that’s “more challenging than [what’s seen] in traditional commercial galleries,” says founder Michael Freed.

Artist Erika Wanenmacher recently approached Freed about curating a show in his purpose-driven space, and he im-mediately said yes. “Erika does work that’s challenging and conceptual yet eminently collectible,” he notes.

And so, Wanenmacher invited 10 “moderate weirdos and fellow travelers” working in various mediums to explore science fiction and fantasy, genres that have fascinated her since childhood. The artists include Eve Andrée Laramée, Tom Jennings, Michael Lujan, Katherine Lee, Nico Salazar, Benji Geary, John Tinker, John Boyce, Marc Clements, Victor Melaragno, and Wanen-macher herself. Works on display include a photograph of a UFO by Laramée and a mixed-media sculpture by Clements that’s based on the crop circles at Yarnbury Castle in Wiltshire, England.

With these subjects there’s always an ele-ment of skepticism, and conspiracy theories inevitably arise. “Santa Fe’s a pretty big New Agey town, so there are a lot of opinions about this stuff,” Wanenmacher says. “I’m not trying to persuade anyone or move anyone in a specific way. It’s mostly to amuse myself first and then see what other people think about it.”

I Want to Believe (maybe), January 17–25, reception January 17, 6–8 pm; after reception, open by appointment by calling Michael Freed at 505-670-9276; Offroad Productions, 2891-B Trades West Rd, facebook.com/offroadproductionssantafe

Don Kennell’s Blue Gorilla“This sculpture is meant to be open to interpretation,” Kennell says. “I’m most interested in creating an

image that draws people in and

compels an original, startling moment, one where they can contemplate materials, image,

mass, and context.”

“This piece has obvious references to the carbon footprint of our transportation system and its far-flung global effects,” Kennell says. “But it also functions on the level of a social talisman, a historical collection of 40 years’ worth of automobile culture—skins from the ’70s, ’80s, ’90s, and 2000s that coalesce into an image of our primal cousin, the ape.”

Blue Gorilla is 13 feet tall, 15 feet wide, 10 feet deep, and made with a steel armature and up-cycled, blue sheet metal that was harvested from wrecked cars at local salvage yards.

Blue Gorilla will be installed in the Railyard at 11:30 am on January 16. The sculpture will remain on view through

March before migrating to the Philadelphia Zoo, where it will be part of a nine-month

exhibition called Second Nature.

Artist Michael Allen McGuire is perhaps best known locally for putting brush or pen to paper, but since 2007 he’s been working with a very different medium: a 60-year-old juniper tree that sits in the front yard of his Santa Fe home. “I studied and practiced the art of bonsai training for several years,” McGuire says. “The craft of

bonsai allows the innate natural growth of any tree to be revealed as sculptural perfection; it’s a beautiful example of ‘living’ art.” Every spring and fall, McGuire prunes and shapes his tree. “The inner structure [is] always there,” he notes. “I just have to determine which branches should go and which remain.”—Whitney Spivey

REtake a dipNot many properties in Santa Fe—and certainly not many in the South Capitol district—include a private backyard pool. Yet this half-acre lot just a mile south of the Plaza boasts a thoughtfully landscaped pool that accommodates lap swimmers and loungers alike. (A hot tub on the patio will also appeal to the latter group.) Inside the 3,383-square-foot Pueblo Revival–style home, vigas are found in most rooms, including the renovated kitchen, which boasts stainless steel appliances and a skylight. The master suite—one of three bedrooms in the house—offers a fireplace and a private patio. Visitors can use the one-bedroom guesthouse, complete with a full kitchen, a fireplace, and great views of the property’s tall deciduous and evergreen trees.

live on the edgeThis 1.5-acre property is a short drive from downtown, but because it’s nestled in Tesuque Canyon and backs up to the Santa Fe National Forest you’re sure to encounter more wildlife than humans in the surrounding area, especially at the bordering creek. The newly constructed 2,077-square-foot adobe was designed by Jane Smith in an elegant Northern New Mexico style reminiscent of the work of Santa Fe builder Betty Stewart. The pitched-roof residence has large, deep-set windows and white plaster walls that complement the home’s custom iron chandeliers and copper sconces. Relax on the large flagstone portal that overlooks the lush grounds (enclosed by a privacy wall and coyote fencing), which contain an orchard with apple, pear, and plum trees. Two wells and water rights are part of the deal.

by Emily Van Cleve

RICK RUFF OWNS 17 aluminum-frame trailers. That number includes a 1953 Airstream, a 1950 Spartanette (made by the now defunct Spartan Aircraft Company), and 15 others built between the 1930s and 1970s.

When he’s not tinkering with his own collection of vintage campers and RVs, the 68-year-old former leather craftsman is fixing others’. “I lived in trailers when I traveled around doing craft shows, and when they broke down—which they seemed to do in the most inconvenient places—I had to fix them,” Ruff says. “That’s how I began learning everything I know about fixing trailers.”

Ruff, who lives in Santa Fe but spends part of his time on his Madrid property (which doesn’t have electricity or running water), is completely self-taught. After 35 years in the business, he can repair cabinets; refinish wood surfaces; and do body, electrical, and plumbing work. He’s converted trailers into food trucks as well as outfitted them for full-time living. Finding parts is often problematic, however. “I bought a couple of my trailers for parts, but I haven’t been able to dismantle them,” he says. “It would be almost painful to do it.”

For decades, Ruff repaired his clients’ trailers on their premises, but recently he took the plunge and leased a 2,400-square-foot building near the corner of Agua Fria and Siler roads. He hopes to hire as assistant soon to help with his expanding business.

“I can fit four trailers inside and park eight trailers outside,” he says. “Even though I’m still getting the space together and not ready to crank up my business, my parking lot is close to full with trailers waiting to get fixed.”

You can reach Ruff at 505-690-8272.

Sean Healen is practically a native New Mexican—he moved here from Montana during high school. In his decades of making folk, rock, and Americana music for his local fans and anyone else lucky enough to attend one of his shows (like the one seen here at Cowgirl BBQ in December), he’s tightened his performance and sharpened his talents. Healen’s well-received 2011 album Crown of Coal was recorded and produced by Grammy-winner Malcolm Burn, and his self-released Floodplain was awarded Best Rock CD at the 2009 New Mexico Music Awards. Now performing under the name Sean Healen III, his band includes John Perado (bass) and Bjorn Hamre (drums). ”[Perado and Hamre] bring a new exciting energy with sexy bass riffs and a powerful rhythm to dance to,” says one local fan. “They’ve changed the band for the better.” Says another: “It’s a super swingin’ band that gives a great, hard-drivin’ show.”—Cristina Olds
