Author Visit: Denny Dressman
Presented by Pikes Peak Library District at PPLD: Library 21c Colorado Springs, CO
Join Pikes Peak Library District for a discussion with Denver-based author Denny Dressman to talk about his book, Black Baseball's Heyday: Capturing an Era in Art and Words. After the presentation, Denny will be available to sign books and answer audience questions. Black Baseball’s Heyday is a concise yet rich look at the lengthy period of segregated baseball from 1880 to Jackie Robinson’s debut, beginning with the origin of the so-called color line. But Black Baseball’s Heyday also looks at the emergence of thriving neighborhoods of color such as 18th and Vine in Kansas City and Pittsburgh’s Hill District, and cultural developments during the first half of the 20th century, and those who shaped them—jazz icon Charlie Parker, Clowns promoter Syd Pollock, and the “Barbecue King,’” Henry Perry, among them. And throughout, this book displays the creativity and artistry of Kansas City’s Anthony High, an internationally recognized artist. Books will not be sold during the event. You can purchase a copy directly from the publisher through their website and bring it on July 11 to have it signed by the author. This program is being offered to commemorate the Colorado 150 and US 250 anniversaries.

Joe Sciallo & The Deep End
Presented by Buffalo Lodge Bicycle Resort at Buffalo Lodge Bicycle Resort Colorado Springs, CO
Joe Sciallo & The Deep End bring the blues, whether it’s torching a vintage West Coast jump, or grooving on a jazz boogaloo, or nailing an uptempo modern shuffle. Sciallo brings an authentic touch to the world of instrumental blues and “bluesy” jazz tunes while also breaking out his own original compositions. Think Pee Wee Crayton meets Lou Donaldson, or Hollywood Fats interpreting James Brown…and you’re on the way to getting the Deep End vibe. Holding it all down is drummer Stefan Flores and bassist John Flores, locking in a backbeat that keeps the whole thing cruising down the road at 100 miles per hour. Join us as we feature Denver blues harmonica sensation, Nic Clark, for a night of music to remember.
