3/30 Lowland Hum The Design Lab, 49 Main Street doors: 7:00PM | music starts at 7:30PM $10 in advance, $12 at the door | $5 for all studentsfor more information Join us for a new downtown performance series – ‘Late Night at the Lab’ featuring: Lowland Hum with Anna Tivel and House Sparrow. Lowland Hum have spent their career refining the particular power of their self-imposed restraint. Glyphonic is the purest distillation of this thesis to date, setting about the difficult work of finding stillness and meaning in the midst of chaos: a collection of quietudes created and savored among all this present noisiness. Glyphonic is Lowland Hum’s fourth full-length record of original material following 2017′s Thin. The band has spent the last two years on the road in both the US and Europe with the likes of Josh Ritter, Penny and Sparrow, and The Oh Hellos. Over an expansive career they’ve earned critical praise from NPR, Paste, Huffington Post, American Songwriter, The Washington Post and more. ANNA TIVEL reaches for that thread of understanding with her music, that moment of recognition, of shared experience. There are hundreds of thousands of miles on her touring odometer and each town is a tangled web of heartache and small reasons to believe. She gravitates toward the quiet stories of ordinary life. A homeless veteran sitting on a bench to watch the construction of a luxury hotel. A woman wondering about the life of the daughter she had to give up for adoption. Someone changing shape, someone falling in love, someone all alone. HOUSE SPARROW are a two-person band driven by synthesizers, tenor guitar, Francesca’s heavenly voice, and a lot of rumination on nature, waiting, death, and time. Band members Francesca Olsen and Joe Aidonidis combine their talents to create a dreamy wall of sound that’s worth a close listen.

Besides, the Founders used tariffs as the main source of federal income. That means tariffs are good and wonderful, not bad like stupid libertarians say.

The think tank said struggling cities in the North and Midlands were more exposed to job losses than wealthier cities in the South, compounding the North/South divide.

It’s especially interesting to see the suggestions for the proposed Boulevard Mall and Audubon Stations in Amherst. Audubon is at the location of a major town government complex, with the Amherst police, Amherst town court, Audubon library, and a park. It’s an area currently largely inaccessible by transit, so changing that will be a boon for anyone who has business with the town. And Audubon will pretty much be the end of the line, with only a terminal station north of it at Dodge Road. This is a change from previous schemes shown for the Metro Rail extension, which could have gone as far as Crosspointe.
