Check out what’s happening @ The Cape Ann Community Cinema

Here’s what’s going on at the Cape Ann Community Cinema this week… and beyond!

JUST THE WAY YOU NOIR
Acclaimed chromatic player
Chet Williamson
plays jazz set, film follows

This Sunday, March 25 at 5:00pm,The Cape Ann Community Cinema hosts accomplished chromatic (harmonica) player Chet Williamson as he plays in its entirety his new concept album, “Chromatic Noir.”

“My passion for film noir dates back to the 1970s,” Williamson says. “While working as a projectionist for Nick Rock’s film series at the Worcester Public Library, I rolled tape on many a classic. My particular favorites include ‘D.O.A.,’ ‘Gun Crazy’ and ‘A Touch Of Evil.'” The 1950 classic“D.O.A.” will screen following Williamson’s live jazz set.

“Many a jazz standard were first introduced in noir films,” Williamson adds. “There’s ‘Blue Gardenia,’ ‘Laura,’ and ‘The Night Has A Thousand Eyes,’ or tunes that became classics because of the genre, like ‘Again,’ ‘To Each His Own,’ ‘Suddenly It’s Spring,’ and ‘Moanin’ Low,’ among others.”

Chromatic Noir is not a cover album, however. Williamson calls it “an entirely original project in search of its own imagery.” He also says, quoting the protagonist from “Double Indemnity,” that Chromatic Noir is “the stuff that dreams are made of…” adding, “not to mention, the residue of nightmares. In a world of high anxiety, disillusionment and overall bleakness in the face of any kind of future, it was conceived as a disarming antidote, offering romanticism, lyricism and hard-boiled poetry for the weary soul.”

Tickets for this special event are $9.50 adults, $8.00 students and seniors and $6.50 for members, available at the door.

“Chromatic Noir” can be previewed at www.ChromaticNoir.bandcamp.com.

For the Cinema’s full weekly schedule, which includes “Albert Nobbs,” “We Need To Talk About Kevin” and “Declaration Of War,” visit www.CapeAnnCinema.com, or call (978) 282-1988.

A couple of special events to tell you about (so you can plan and get tickets before they sell out): a special sneak preview (with free food) of Wim Wenders’ Oscar-nominated dance tribute PINA (Mon. Mar. 26 @ 6:00pm) and a one-night-only presentation of the acclaimed documentary JIRO DREAMS OF SUSHI (Sun. Apr. 8 @ 5:00pm). Order tickets to either of these special events here.

We hope to see you soon!

“If you can get good hate mail, it means you’re actually doing very well.” ~ Brad Byrd

That’s right, folks.  In this video Hollywood director Brandon Rose (gimmesound Artist of the Week) and local musician Brad Byrd sing the praises of getting hate mail and give 4 reasons why it’s a good thing.  Watch the video and see all the reasons why Brad & Brandon love hate mail!

It feels like summer and Gloucester’s music scene is heating up too:  7@7 ~ SEVEN great music choices tonight beginning at 7pm.  See full music lineup here.

Brad, Brandon & Brie ~ Casting Call

Here’s the third of our series on the making of Brad Byrd’s music video Zero to the 101 directed by gimmesound Artist of the Week, Brandon Rose.  This video shows the casting call last week at Minglewood Tavern and ends with Brad Byrd and Brianna Hobbs (who was cast as the female lead) doing a bit of improv.

It’s Tuesday in Gloucester.  You know what that means: 7pm at Jalapenos and 10pm at Rhumb line.  See full music lineup here.


Want to know the secret of editing good video? Pay attention to this …

Last weekend, Hollywood director Brandon Rose came to Gloucester with his crew to direct a music video for Rockport native Brad Byrd‘s hit song Zero to the 101 that was featured on ABC TV’s Happy Endings, so we decided to feature him as gimmesound Artist of the Week.

We first met up with Brandon during the casting call at Minglewood Tavern on Thursday and talked about his approach to editing.  In this video (above), he gives us a good lesson on the subject, so PAY ATTENTION.

Later this week, we’ll have exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of the making of Brad’s video.

Today it’s Dave Sag in the afternoon and Bandit Kings at night — two good choices, so get out and have some fun.  See local music details here.

So you don’t think you need a music video? Think again.

Hollywood director Brandon Rose, of Mind Venture Pictures, came to Gloucester this weekend to shoot a music video for Brad Byrd, who was gimmesound Artist of the Week in January.  So we figured it fitting for Brandon to be Artist of the Week starting today.

In this video, Brandon has advice for all you musicians out there trying to get your music heard and seen.

The rest of the week you’ll get the very first glimpse at the making of Brad’s music video for his hit song, Zero to the 101 — footage you’ll only see on Good Morning Gloucester — so stay tuned!

It’s a big day for music with different choices every hour starting at 4pm this afternoon featuring last week’s Artist of the week Michael O’Leary at the Landing (especially for those of you who just don’t want St. Patrick’s Day to be over).

See full music lineup here.

And don’t forget our good friend Allen Estes at the Rhumb Line with Orville Giddings ~ Always a great show!
