Beatles and Stones and More – oh my! Noonartsound on Tuesday, April 7 in the Library

beatlesOur next noonartsound highlights “The British Invasion: 1964-1967.”  Please plan to join us at at Noon on Tuesday, April 7, in the O’Shaughnessy Room (Room 108) of the O’Shaughnessy-Frey Library Center.

The program is free and open to all — it brings together the talents of Dr. Shelly Nordtorp-Madson, chief curator and a member of the clinical faculty in the Department of Art History, and Dr. Chris Kachian, guitarist and professor of music.

“The British invasion was, in a word, groovy,” Kachian says. “But it wasn’t all tie-dye.  It was Mods, Rockers, and Teddy Boyz, white lipstick and Twiggy . . .  and pop art and op art.  Unfortunately for all those who see the British invasion that it was ‘peace out’ you will be lectured by someone who strove mightily to be not only groovy, but far out and right on.   And, kids, the right-on music that goes right in that rockin’ grooviness?   You don’t need me to tell you!”

You are welcome to bring your lunch if you wish – beverages and a light dessert will be provided.

What’s next?  Our final noonartsound of the spring semester will be held at noon on Tuesday, May 5 and will feature songs of the 1930’s and the early labor movement.

Please call Julie at 962-5014 if you have any questions.  Thank you very much and we hope to see you at Noon on April 7!
