Nearly 3,500 arts professionals from throughout the U.S. and nearly 30 other countries converged on New York City, Jan. 12-16, 2018 for the annual conference of the Association of Performing Arts Professionals (APAP). As in years past, dozens of performers from the folk, roots and singer-songwriter communities in the U.S., Canada, and several other countries were featured among the more than 1,000 showcases during the global multidisciplinary performing arts marketplace and conference. A number of booking agencies whose rosters include such artists were among the more than 350 exhibitors in the large EXPO Hall. The conference also featured networking opportunities galore, daily plenary sessions and keynote speakers, an awards ceremony, a town hall on the artist as activist, and a wide array of professional development workshops and forums. <\/p>\n

The theme for 2018 was trans.ACT and focused on the transformative power of the arts. The conference\u2019s plenary sessions explored the role and responsibility of the performing arts in our world today and the impact of trans-disciplinary thinking and partnerships that are breaking new ground in both the arts and the world beyond.<\/p>\n

Showcases of Note Took Place at the Host Hotel and at Venues Around New York City<\/strong><\/p>\n

Showcases took place both at the New York Hilton Midtown, the conference hotel, and at venues throughout Manhattan. A few also were set in other New York City boroughs and beyond.<\/p>\n

\"Jayme

A Global Routes Showcase at the New York Hilton (curated and co-hosted by artists Clay Ross and Jayme Stone) featured Gullah music of the Carolina Coast performed by Charleston, SC-based Ranky Tanky, the joyous Brazilian bluegrass sounds of Matuto (fronted by Clay Ross), the energetic Northeastern Brazilian party music of Rob Curto’s Forro For All, Jayme Stone’s Folklife (pictured), bluegrass-inspired Estonian four-piece string band Curly Strings, Nordic roots band SVER, virtuosic ten-time IBMA Fiddle Player of the Year Michael Cleveland and his band Flamekeeper, and The Nordic Fiddle Bloc. After catching all but the last couple of acts, I headed to Don’t Tell Mama in the theater district for another wonderful roots music variety show curated by Ken Waldman, Alaska’s fiddling poet (although he no longer lives there), who also performed. This year’s lineup for ” From Manhattan to Moose Pass” featured Kristin Andreassen (Uncle Earl, Footworks), The Early Mays (a folk trio with harmonium, whose latest release formerly topped the Folk DJ charts), American roots and blues songsters Ben Hunter & Joe Seamons, Celtic-inspired and fiddle-based indie folksters Laura Cortese & the Dance Cards, Nate the Great with Brian Vollmer (juggling and music), Ryan Drickey, and NYC-based singer songwriter Lily Henley. [The same lineup of artists also showcased their talents the previous night at Brooklyn\u2019s Jalopy Theater.] While I was enjoying the music at Don\u2019t Tell Mama [the showcases hosted by Waldman are always a highlight for me], across town at the City Winery, booking agency Concerted Efforts hosted an Americana Showcase featuring Birds of Chicago, Dom Flemons (a founding member of Carolina Chocolate Drops), Dori Freeman, and Phoebe Hunt & The Gatherers.<\/p>\n

\"Tartan

Among the featured artists were the stellar Irish acoustic ensemble Lunasa, ebullient jig-rockers The Prodigals and their alter egos Acoustic Micks (both fronted by Gregory Grene), Philadelphia-based Celtic roots band RUNA, young Irish trad trio Socks in the Frying Pan (from County Clare), and, very notably, the Seamus Egan Project [A multimedia concert by Egan’s seminal band Solas was a highlight of a previous APAP Conference]. Tartan Terrors tore it up the following day with their blend of Scottish music and dance during a rousing showcase in another hotel conference room. Also showcasing, although I missed them, were NYC-based All-Ireland button accordionist John Redmond, Bronx, NY-based singer-songwriter Mary Courtney, and young Celtic-inspired folk-rock band The Narrowbacks. <\/p>\n

During the evening, I enjoyed extended sets of music by Jim Messina (of Loggins & Messina, Poco and Buffalo Springfield fame) and Grammy Award-winning southwest Louisiana-based Cajun band Beausoleil avec Michel Doucet at Iridium, a Manhattan nightclub that primarily features jazz artists. Back at the hotel late that night, I also enjoyed a short showcase by the vocal group Estonian Voices.<\/p>\n

That evening, I headed to New York\u2019s Lower East Side and shuttled between various folk and Americana showcases at Rockwood Music Hall’s three stages. Skyline Presents \u201cClub 47 @ APAP\u201d \u2013 An Evening of Contemporary Americana featured living legend Tom Rush and singer-songwriters Caitlin Canty, Ben Caplan, Seth Glier, England\u2019s Jake Morley, and Matt Nakoa, as well as Canadian bluegrass band Slocan Ramblers. A showcase co-hosted by Quicksilver Productions and Lost Buffalo Artists featured Anna & Elizabeth, Ben Hunter & Joe Seamons, Kristin Andreassen with The Bright Siders, and Kaia Kater.<\/p>\n

Featured acts included Kaia Kater, Corin Raymond, Jonathan Byrd & The Pickup Cowboy, Ramy Essam, Sam Baker, The Last Revel, Ben Hunter and Joe Seamons, and Session Americana. <\/p>\n

Other folk and roots artists who showcased their talents during the APAP Conference included The Abrams Brothers, vocals and harp duo Addi & Jacq, multi-instrumentalists Andes Manta, contemporary folk trio A Band Called Honalee, Russian folk ensemble Barnya, young Irish tenor Emmet Cahill (who is also a member of Celtic Thunder), Colombian-Panamanian roots duo Calle Sur, The Everly Set (Sean Altman and Jack Skuller), guitarist Vicki Genfan, seven-sibling act The Hunts, Georgian polyphonic choir Iberi, Quebec\u2019s Melisande [Electrotrad], Guy Mendilow Ensemble, Mojo & the Bayou Gypsies, accordionist and composer-singer Sam Reider, eclectic roots ensemble Upstate Rubdown, Ottawa Valley fiddler April Verch and her band, and Yemen Blues. Randy Noojin presented 15-minute excerpts from Hard Travelin\u2019 with Woody<\/em>, his one-man multimedia show featuring the music and artwork of Woody Guthrie, as well as Seeger<\/em> — A multimedia solo show featuring the music of Pete Seeger. Sage Artists shared excerpts of Call Mr. Robeson: A Life, With Songs.\u201d Cast members from Lonesome Traveler: The Concert<\/em> also performed short musical excerpts from the show, along with narration that helps tell the story of American folk and folk-rock music from Woody Guthrie to Bob Dylan and beyond. Artists in various other musical genres also showcased their talents, while comedy, dance and theatrical showcases also were part of the mx. <\/p>\n

Artists who Hosted Showcases Offer Their Reflections<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jayme Stone<\/strong> notes that he started curating a showcase at last year\u2019s APAP Conference \u201cto create a space for independent roots\/world music artists to have their music heard by performing arts center directors and festival programmers. My goal was to make the cost slightly more affordable for artists and to create an opportunity for underrepresented artists to have a seat at the table. Most of the artists at our showcase do not have agents, which is rare at this conference.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cAttending the conference has proven to have a profound impact on my touring career,\u201d says Clay Ross<\/strong>, who fronts both Matuto and Ranky Tanky and produced the Global Routes Music Showcase with Stone. Noting that he\u2019s been attending APAP conferences for the past seven years, Ross told AcousticMusicScene.com<\/em>: \u201cIt\u2019s given me the opportunity to connect with presenters, agents, managers, and other industry professionals around the world.\u201d Those connections have helped prompt bookings for his bands at a number of prestigious Americana, roots and jazz venues and festivals.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs an artist, I think it\u2019s really important to understand the various perspectives, challenges and concerns associated with all sides of the business,\u201d Ross continued. \u201cBy hanging around at conferences like APAP and forging relationships across the field, you start to see more clearly how your talents and interests might best align with potential partners. You start to understand that you don\u2019t need to be everything to everyone, but can instead find your own comfortable niche. \u201c <\/p>\n

\"Fiddling
Fiddling poet Ken Waldman’s roots music variety show at Don’t Tell Mama was an APAP Conference highlight (iPhone Photo: Michael Kornfeld)<\/figcaption><\/figure>Ken Waldman<\/strong>, who has been attending, exhibiting and mentoring at APAP conferences since 2007, began hosting a Friday night roots music variety show nine years ago. Noting that many of the attending presenters wear numerous hats, he said: \u201cThey might program various spaces \u2013 including some that are quite large. So part of what I do with my showcase evenings is to provide presenters with something useful. If it was just me showcasing, I\u2019d be hard-pressed to get an audience. But since I invite seven additional acts that I personally like, I can offer eight distinct showcases (including what I do). Presenters have come to trust that I\u2019ll not only offer them a variety of exceptional artists to sample, but they can sit in one spot with professional sound and lights. We even buy them drinks. Presenters understand that they\u2019re not only experiencing each of the acts discreetly, but they\u2019re experiencing an evening that I personally am putting together. A big theater (with a big budget) may want me to bring three or four acts and make an evening of it. That can only happen for me if the presenter has experienced one of my showcase evenings at APAP.\u201d<\/p>\n

Waldman continues, \u201cGoing to APAP, we\u2019re more apt to find jobs that pay $2,500, $5,000 and up.\u201d While acknowledging that nothing is guaranteed, he believes that \u201cby offering this particular roots music showcase evening, I\u2019m nudging the odds in my favor. It\u2019s an investment I\u2019ve been happy to make.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause I attend so many [conferences], I don\u2019t feel stressed thinking it\u2019s now or never. I see people I\u2019ve met in prior years [and those] I\u2019ve never met before. If some jobs come my way, great — but it doesn\u2019t have to be the result of a particular conference or showcase. It\u2019s invariably the result of attending as many of these conferences as I can.\u201d He maintains that presenters who attend APAP conferences tend to have more experience in the field, access to bigger budgets, and are just so inundated with pitches from artists and their agents that they are virtually impossible to reach by email or phone. \u201cBut at a conference there\u2019s the chance to actually meet someone which means if I do have reason to send an email or make a phone call, there\u2019s a much greater chance of having the email returned or the call taken.\u201d<\/p>\n

WAVELENGTHS World Music Pre-Conference Features An Inspirational Keynote<\/strong><\/p>\n

Among several arts-related forums that preceded the conference was a two-day WAVELENGTHS World Music Pre-Conference featuring a keynote, panel discussions, workshops, and an artist pitch session co-produced by music PR firm Rock Paper Scissors in cooperation with GlobalFEST.<\/p>\n

Keynoting WAVELENGTHS was Emel Mathlouthi, a Tunisian singer-songwriter whose songs played a major role in Arab Spring and led to her being called \u201cthe voice of the Tunisian revolution.\u201d She offered heartfelt comments and inspiring thoughts as she spoke of the role of the artist in turbulent times and the importance of empathy.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a link to a video of Emel performing her song \u201c Kelmti Horra \u201c(\u201cMy Word is Free\u201d) during the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert:<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wJ79iEfus8E<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, art has always been very powerful in connecting us\u2026[and] in opening doors, [and in transcending] barriers and limits,\u201d she said. \u201cWe\u2019re all coming from the same place, and we all have a heart … Art is an international language. I really wanted to convey that,\u201d she continued, noting her collaborations with musicians from other parts of the world. Until recently, Emel, who cites Joan Baez among her influences, has primarily written and sung music in Arabic, and some of her songs contain messages that transcend politics. <\/p>\n

\"Emil

It\u2019s a barrier that shouldn\u2019t be there. We can offer so much more than just exoticism.”<\/p>\n

She advocates for the elimination of ethnic and political silos that have been used to pigeonhole and minimize artists\u2019 cross-cultural appeal and expressing her personal desire to appeal to people based on her humanity, rather than feel like just an ethnic or political artist. \u201cWe\u2019re reaching times where all the concepts have to change and allow all the artists who are coming from the world music sphere to be able to explore themselves and go beyond any preconceived notions,\u201d she declared. While acknowledging that she has a conscience and a point of view, and expressing pride in the social impact that her music has had in helping to energize the movement for change in the Arab world, she concluded: \u201cAt the end of the day, I\u2019m an artist, a musician, a singer.\u201d<\/p>\n
