Tyler Ramsey is a\nmul ti-instrumentalist equally at home playing guitar\, piano\, keyboards\,\nb ass\, and percussion\, but he is best known as a talented fingerstyle\ngui tarist and singer songwriter. Early on Tyler studied country blues\nguitar ists like Mance Lipscomb and Mississippi John Hurt\, and American\nfingers tyle guitarists in the school of John Fahey and Leo Kottke. This\nmusic an d these guitarists helped to solidify his own sense of melody and\nsong fo rms. During the last year of touring with Band of Horses\, that saw\nhim a way more than at home\, Tyler moved his family from Asheville\, NC\, to a\ nfarm in the mountains of western North Carolina. Taking advantage of brie f\ntimes off the road\, he finished his 4th solo album\, which was recorde d in\nLouisville KY\, and announced his departure from the band after 10 y ears.\nThe new songs are lush and full\, and realized with help from a lis t of\nfriends old and new\, adding gorgeous vocal harmonies\, strings\, an d guitar\ncounterpoints. The new album for the morning is set to be releas ed in early\n2018 and extensive touring will carry this new music to fans across the\ncountry.

For years\, Sonia\nWar shawski (89) has been an inspirational public speaker at schools and\npris ons\, where her stories of surviving the Holocaust as a teenager have\nins pired countless people who once felt their own traumas would leave them\nb roken forever. But when Sonia is served an eviction notice for her iconic\ ntailor shop (in a dead mall)\, she's confronted with an agonizing decisio n:\neither open up a new shop\, or retire.
