In honor of the one hundredth anniversary of Dorothy Parkerâs first publication in the New Yorker (this is a lie but please go with it) we are presenting not only a poetry salon, but a poetry saloon. How is that possible? First, we will read approximately twenty of her poems aloud. We will discuss her style, mechanics, haunting humor and rhyme scheme. Then, with courage, conviction and a contemporary eye, we will write our own poems a la Parker. Satirical, cutting, timely. The workshop with culminate in a reading around CLâs mahogany, rectangular table. Poetry and pinot noir, anyone?

Two artists who helped shape and document defining eras of rockânâroll come together in their chosen home of Hudson, NY, for a conversation about music, memory, and creative community. As bassist for Hole and Smashing Pumpkins, Melissa Auf der Maur toured the world with a camera in hand, documenting life backstage, onstage, and in the crowd. She went on to co-found Basilica Hudson, a multidisciplinary arts institution in Hudson. Her 2026 memoir, Even the Good Girls Will Cry, and companion photo book, My â90s Rock Photographs, offer an intimate portrait of alternative rockâs heyday and a time capsule for Generation X. Decades before MTV, visual artist and director Michael Lindsay-Hogg was pioneering music videos for The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and The Who. His films The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus and Let It Be captured rockâs great innovators at a moment of extraordinary change. His 2011 memoir, Luck and Circumstance, recounts a life among cultural icons, while Peter Jacksonâs 2024 restoration of Let It Be brought his work to new generation. That same year, Hudson Hall audiences discovered another side of his storytelling through a solo exhibition of his paintings. Join these two local luminaries as they share stories from two extraordinary chapters in music history and the paths that led them to Hudson. The conversation will be followed by a Q&A, book signing, and reception with music by DJBNNYBRNS.

Ginger Winn is a Kingston, NYâbased singer-songwriter from Charleston, SC. She released her sophomore album Freeze Frame on June 13, 2025, a luminous follow-up to her debut Stop-Motion, produced by David Baron (The Lumineers, Noah Kahan, Lenny Kravitz) at his Sun Mountain Studio in Boiceville, NY. After the recording process, Ginger fell in love with the Hudson Valley and decided to take root there. Her sound has been described as âmusic that shimmers and sighs like a snowfall at midnightâ and âhaunting vocals, introspective lyrics, and richly atmospheric soundscapes.â Known for blending âpoetic lyricism, ethereal production, and hauntingly beautiful vocalsâ with a âdelicate alternative folk sound,â she creates moments that feel âsuspended in crystalline ice, preserving both beauty and pain.â On Freeze Frame, critics have called it âintimate and enchanting, heavy and wondrous: a soul-stirring collection that wears its heart on its sleeveâ and âa quietly powerful album full of sorrow, beauty, and emotional clarity.â Songs like âEscapeâ are âbrutally honest and achingly raw⌠an intimate confessional and a vulnerable, cathartic confrontation,â while others are âinventive, sonically playful, and rich with dizzying texture.âOn stage, Gingerâs performances are magnetic and immersiveâwhether in intimate listening rooms or on expansive outdoor stages. Audiences have described her shows as âfeeling like a hug from a friend.â During her West Coast run opening for the Gipsy Kings, she captivated crowds at iconic venues including The Mountain Winery (CA), Vina Robles Amphitheatre (CA), Hayden Homes Amphitheater (OR), and Chateau Ste. Michelle (WA), delivering sets that felt âlike shared secrets, fragile, vivid, and unforgettable.â

Today, the legendary band Sleep releases new single âHave Spacesuit Will Travelâ via Third Man Records, their first new music since 2018. In addition, the band announces a fall North American tour, as well as releases the first issue of the Sleep Comic Book, written by bassist and songwriter Al Cisneros.âHave Spacesuit Will Travelâ begins Sleepâs first mission without Matt Pike on guitar. The music and art are alive and after the decades of obstacles that Sleep has overcome, it is time to move forward and make songs and albums. Al wishes Matt the best on his earth bound maneuvers.Alongside Cisneros, the latest incarnation of Sleep features Dale Crover on drums and Bubba Dupree on guitar. Dale has been in some serious bands, like the Melvins and Redd Kross. That Al would seek him out makes sense, an almost elementary choice that probably wouldnât raise too many eyebrows. Bubba Dupree, from the fiercely loved band Void, hailing out of Columbia, MD, is a pick that is not only completely mind-blowing, but a choice no one would have seen coming. Just the thought of Bubba, who was amazing from the first Void shows on, playing guitar in Sleep is almost too much for the mind to comprehend.Al Cisneros, Bubba Dupree, and Dale Crover as a trio looks really good on paper, but the only way to see if it worked was to get everyone in a room and play. Al says the answer made itself evident immediately: âThe vibe of the first jam was obvious. It was blue sunglasses-era Iommi in the quality, and equally awesome is Bubba is also one of the coolest people Iâve been able to make music with.ââHave Spacesuit Will Travelâ at no time tries to pick up where The Sciences left off. Thereâs a considerable amount of new blood in the band, so imitation, as Bubba notes, would greatly limit the potential of three very unique and talented musicians. That being said, Sleep answers to an incredible recorded history, literally decades in the making, so it would not be surprising that Al, Dale and Bubba would find themselves composing in the spirit of that which had been established so long ago. The three of them were able to make an album that can truly be identified as genuine Sleep music, yet with a sharpness and agility to the recordings.
