Mörglbl | PROG-JAZZ-METAL
FMU Artist Series
Performing Arts Center/Downtown Florence
7:30 pm Thursday, September 12, 2019
Often described as Primus meets Steve Vai or The Beatles meet Pantera, Mörglbl‘s output veers toward the crazy, mixing substantial metal riffs with subtle jazz harmonies, deep pocket grooves, and their trademark goofball humor. Through two decades of performing and touring internationally and reaping well-earned critical acclaim from journalists around the globe on their six full-length albums, Mörglbl is an undeniably unique and creative musical force which transcends genre barriers and commands the attention of anybody into forward-thinking music with a lighthearted appeal. Mörglbl hits like a heavyweight jab and makes you laugh while you bleed. Seat belts are optional, but highly recommended.
Mörglbl’s The Story Of Scott Rötti was recorded at The Beat Factory during the Summer of 2018, mixed by Enzo D’Agostino at Elia Studio, mastered by Mobo at Conkrete Studio, and completed with artwork by Pierre Bernard and Peter Puke.

A tale of woe in story & song by Dr. Dawn Larsen
Faculty Performance, FMU Department of Fine Arts
Performing Arts Center/Downtown Florence

A poignant comedy, the show combines original songs, stick figures, and the online dating journey of one progressive woman living in the deep South. Ten lessons (and one bonus!) underscore her discovery of who she is, what she wants, and that love is her divine right.
“Larsen could be your closest friend, sitting in your kitchen, humming along to Patsy Cline and sipping moonshine from a teacup as she spins you a yarn about looking for love.” –Cincinnati CityBeat
“An unapologetic tale of dating past the age that society often tells us that we can be seen as desirable — the author fiercely owns her sexuality and desire and knows her worth… Her singing and songwriting is exemplary. Engaging and entertaining.” -Atlanta Fringe Fest
Admission is free.

9 Horses
FMU Artist Series & REAL Program
Performing Arts Center/Downtown Florence
7:30 pm Thursday, October 17, 2019
9 Horses is Joe Brent on acoustic and electric mandolin, Sara Caswell on violin and Hardanger d’amore, and Andrew Ryan on bass. Featuring Brent’s original compositions and the incendiary, genre-hopping virtuosity of all three members, the trio at the core of 9 Horses represents Brent’s dual vision of a musical future with no barrier between the old notions of ‘folk art’ and ‘fine art’, and an ensemble capable of communicating this idea through musical canvases both great and small.
Originally formed in 2012 as a duo between Brent and Caswell, 9 Horses expanded to a trio the following year and in 2015 released its debut album Perfectest Herald (Sunnyside Records), a title drawn from Much Ado About Nothing (“Silence is the perfectest herald of joy: I were but little happy, if I could say how much.”) The centerpiece of the album is a 4-movement suite for the acoustic trio alone which takes the listener on a searing journey through tragedy, triumph, and renewal. Budd Kopman wrote in All About Jazz: “Brent’s music is just bursting with emotion and its immediacy is partly what makes it so attractive and inviting. This highly emotive music touches and communicates the essence of what it means to be an alive, feeling human being.”
Following the album’s release, 9 Horses has performed and given workshops across the USA and internationally, and was most recently named the winning ensemble in the 21CM LAUNCH: Emerging Artists competition.
Tickets are available to FMU students, faculty, and staff at no charge upon showing an FMU ID. Tickets to the general public are $5, as space allows. The FMU PAC Ticket Office at 201 South Dargan Street is open Monday through Friday, 12:00pm – 5:00pm, or by calling 843-661-4444.

So he has turned his tiny lab/apartment into a place to wait out the disaster and begin remaking humanity. A third character, Barbara, is the audience’s guide in her portrayal of the end of civilization thousands of years earlier.
