Salida Songbirds: A Divas and Dreams Cabaret

The ReMemberers in Concert
2025-09-26 08:00 - 17:00 | A Church, 419 D street, Salida, 81201
The ReMemberers are a genre-blurring trio that merges ancient folklore, global singing traditions, and instrumental virtuosity into a vivid, transportive concert experience. Their latest performance, The Lindworm, reimagines a Scandinavian wisdom tale of transformation, exile, and renewal—brought to life through rhythm, melody, and mythology. Featuring the world renowned storyteller John DeKadt (acolyte of the great Robert Bly) an evening with the ReMemberers offers up some of the most profound and enduring customs of being human: a story, a song, a heartbeat.
Each member offers a distinctive sonic ingredient to the feast:
Alex Harvey plays saz, shakuhachi, koncovka, mandolin, bouzouki and 12-string guitar
Violet Southard sings and intones in English, Spanish, and Lakota
John DeKadt spins story and plays cajón, conga, kanjira, handpan, and frame drum
Together, they conjure a soundscape that moves fluidly from Sufi maqams to Appalachian laments to peyote chants to Leonard Cohen. The music, like the myth, is both rooted and untamed—woven in a shape that grows wild and quiet all at once.

Arsenic and Old Lace
2025-09-26 18:00 - 21:00, 2025-09-27 18:00 - 21:00 | Salida SteamPlant
“Arsenic and Old Lace” is a comedic play about Mortimer Brewster, a drama critic who discovers his sweet, elderly aunts are serial murderers, poisoning lonely old men with elderberry wine laced with arsenic. Adding to the chaos, his homicidal brother Jonathan, who has had his face surgically altered to resemble Boris Karloff, arrives with his accomplice, Dr. Einstein, bringing another dead body and creating further complications. The play centers on Mortimer’s attempts to manage the situation, protect his aunts, and deal with his deranged family while trying to marry his fiancée, Elaine

Sturtz’s music stands out for its distinctive, soothing instrumental and vocal harmonies. NPR’s All Songs Considered described the band as “a reassuring breath of fresh air that pulls me back to simpler times.” The acoustic quartet – Andrew Sturtz [vocals, guitar], Courtlyn Carpenter [cello, harmonies], Will Kuepper [bass, piano, harmonies], and Jim Herlihy [banjo, harmonies] – is serene and folksy, with melodic vocals soaring over the lower string instrumentals. Sturtz released their second studio album, Hyacinth, in September, and they’ve been touring on it ever since. When they’re not playing music, you’ll probably find them milling flour, farming, laying in a creek, or eating native foliage.

At a glance another string band, Salomé Songbird has been honing their distinct take on acoustic music – self described as scathing lullabies – for live audiences around Colorado. Band Members Ariele Macadangdang, Joy Adams, and Bryan Dubrow originally met in the mid 2010’s and reunited in 2022 with ambitions to push themselves – and audiences – musically and emotionally.
As an “eclectic, free spirited acoustic trio” Salomé Songbird’s sound “comes from each individual’s musical background blending together in sync.” Their professional histories span old time and bluegrass, to jazz, pop, and death metal; members have performed with artists including Darol Anger, Nathaniel Rateliff, The Flobots, Kygo, Ben Folds, and Dave Liebman. As a trio they channel this variety of influences into original music inspired by mental health, religious trauma, and cartoons.
Salomé Songbird released their debut single “Jellyfish” in January of 2025.

Baby with the Bathwater is a dark comedy about two completely unprepared parents doing their best—and getting it all wrong. With sharp humor and unexpected turns, the play explores identity, denial, and what happens when good intentions aren’t nearly enough. Both funny and unsettling, it’s a wildly offbeat look at parenting, growing up, and trying to make sense of a world that rarely does.

Ark Valley Indivisible presents the film “The Last Class”
Former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich might be famous for his public service, best-selling books, and viral social media posts, but he always considered teaching his true calling. The Last Class captures a master educator wrestling with the dual realities of his own aging and his students inheriting a world out of balance. Reich confronts the impending finality with unflinching candor, humor, introspection, and a rawness of emotion he has never shared publicly before.
One thousand students fill the biggest lecture hall on campus—the last class to receive Reich’s wisdom and exhortations not to accept that society has to stay the way it is. His final assignment: Who will be the teachers of tomorrow?
