“The Sucarnochee Revue Begins New Season at UWA”
"The Sucarnochee Revue Begins New Season at UWA"
The Red Roots, Godspell in Concert, and William Faulkner interpreter,John Maxwell will be featured on the nationally syndicated radio program, The Sucarnochee Revue, 7 p.m. Friday, August 28 at the University of West Alabama’s Bibb Graves Auditorium in Livingston,Alabama.
The Red Roots are triplet sister Bluegrass singers from Hurley,Mississippi. Nika Taylor is featured on guitar, lead vocals, and mandolin. Nicole plays banjo, dobro, bass, drums, and Natalie alternates between violin, keyboard,and bass.
Godspell in Concert is a group of local singers and musicians under the direction of John Brown of York,Alabama. "Godspell" (an archaic spelling of the word gospel) is a 1970 musical by Stephen Schwartz and John-Michael Tebelak. It opened off Broadway on May 17, 1971, and has played in various touring companies and revivals many times since.
John Maxwell spent years reading letters and the biography Faulkner by Joseph Blotner. His co-writer for his show on William Faulkner was Tom DuPree, now of New York City.
"Faulkner's rich characterizations always seemed to me ideal for a theatrical piece," says Maxwell, who received the Best Actor Award for the screen version of the Faulkner show in the 2006 Atlanta Film Festival.
Now in its fifth year of production, The Sucarnochee Revue presents authentic music from the Black Belt region of Alabama,and Mississippi. The show not only preserves original music and the works by original artists, but also captures the evolution of that music and its current generation of performers. The Sucarnochee Revue also tapes in Meridian,Mississippi at the Temple Theatre the first Friday night of each month.
"What surprises people about the show is the fantastic range of musical genres," producer and host Jacky Jack White said. "We have blues, jazz, Dixieland, gospel, bluegrass, classical, country and more. Historically, there is an incredible amount of talent in the area."
The Sucarnochee Revue regulars include Revue producer and host Jacky Jack White, J. Burton Fuller, Britt Gully, and Mississippi Chris Sharp and the Jangalang String Band.
General admission to The Sucarnochee Revue is $5. For more information, contact White at 205-652-6680.

Sucarnochee Revue goes International
Sucarnochee Revue goes International
The Sucarnochee Revue returns to downtown Meridian and the Temple Theatre Friday August 7 at 7 pm for another taping of the nationally syndicated radio show. Tickets are $5 and can be purchased at the door and in advance at the Temple box office.
This month’s Revue features Steve Gardner and the Jake Leg Stompers a totally unique Folk/Blues band.
Jack Owens, Jessie Mae Hemphill, James Son Thomas, Booba Barnes, and Sam Chatmon of the Mississippi Sheiks are just some of the great Blues and Roots musicians Steve Gardner has known and worked with over the years. Originally, from Jackson, Mississippi, Steve has made his mark as an author, photojournalist, and music lecturer. Gardner has assembled an international band called the Jake Leg Stompers. They play the "old-timey" music on primitive, authentic instruments.
When interviewed by early music researchers about the origins of local tunes Steve Gardner has said, "Many of the old timers from all over said that they believed that the music came from listening to natural, everyday sounds. They believed that after a song has been chanted in the hot fields or stomped out on the front porches and at fish fries for a long enough time, it got ‘stuck in people’s ears’ ". Steve’s latest release is "Walking the Dog" on Buffalo Records.
Also, featured on the program will be the Red Roots, the True Vine Fellowship Singers, and regular cast members Jacky Jack White, producer/host; Mississippi Chris Sharp and the Jangalangs; J. Burton Fuller; and Britt Gully.
