James Howard in Concert
2026-03-07 19:30 - 21:00 | Chemeketa Auditorium, 4000 Lancaster Dr NE, BLDG 6, Salem, OR, 97305, United States
Encore – James Howard in Concert

Join James in an electrifying night of blues-rock brilliance where virtuosic guitar, soulful vocals, and other-worldly sound collide.

If it’s possible to relax into excitement—to hear color painted on sound—then experiencing James Howard live is exactly that. His guitar fills the room with an other-worldly glow: ethereal and expansive, yet grounded and earthy. It’s no surprise Howard is celebrated equally for his soulful Blues-Rock originals and his mesmerizing, layered instrumentals.
A San Francisco Bay Area native with more than 40 years on stage, James Howard delivers an electrifying live show that blends virtuoso guitar, inspirational vocals, and fearless songwriting. Drawing inspiration from legends like Santana, Stevie Ray Vaughan, B.B. King, Jeff Beck, and Pat Travers, Howard fuses traditional blues with psychedelic roots rock—seasoned with touches of Latin and jazz—to create a sound that’s uniquely his own.
His accolades speak volumes:

Winner, Washington Blues Society Finals — 2016 & 2023
Competitor, International Blues Challenge, Memphis, TN
Winner, 2012 Best Blues Guitarist — Lee Ritenour’s Six String Theory Global Guitar Competition
Semi-finalist, Jimi Hendrix Electric Guitar Competition

What critics are saying:
“What Howard can do with a guitar is remarkable… sweet and brilliant… deep in the well when it comes to guitar wizardry & creativity.” — Delta Snake Daily Blues
“A Jimi Hendrix on guitar with John Lennon’s voice and vision… a songwriter with great depth.” — Rock and Blues News
“Guitarist extraordinaire… a breathtaking exhibition… simply awesome.” — Music Connection Magazine
This special Encore performance is your chance to hear a master musician at the height of his powers—intimate, immersive, and unforgettable.

The Breasts of Tiresias
Music by Francis Poulenc and Lyics by Gillaume Apollinaiare
Gender norms pop like balloons in The Breasts of Tiresias, Poulenc and Appollinaire’s bawdy surrealist romp. Frustrated with the life of a housewife, Tiresias sheds her breasts and becomes the male General Tirésias. As she leads a new life fighting distant wars on foreign battlefields, her stay-at-home husband discovers a way to make babies on his own – but not just one: 40,049 of them. This delightfully sugar-coated pill coats the sublime in the ridiculous.

LIBERTY THEATRE REVIEW- 2025
“From the first note to the final encore, Gary Tackett and his band delivered a performance that was nothing short of extraordinary. In a world full of tribute acts, this group stands in a league of their own—not just because of their incredible talent, but because of the heart and authenticity they bring to every moment on stage. Gary channeled Clapton with such effortless skill and natural presence, it was easy to forget you weren’t watching the legend himself. Every solo was played with stunning precision and emotion, and you could feel his passion radiating all the way to the back row. It was a genuine love letter to Clapton’s music, which resonated to everyone in the room. What made the experience even more special was the band’s warmth offstage. Incredibly kind, down-to-earth, and genuinely enthusiastic about connecting with fans and the team, they were a pleasure to work with from start to finish.”

An Evening with Fran Lebowitz
2026-03-14 19:00 - 21:00 | Salem’s Historic Grand Theatre, 187 High St NE, Salem, OR, 97301, United States
In a cultural landscape filled with endless pundits and talking heads, Fran Lebowitz stands out as one of our most insightful social commentators.
Her essays and interviews offer her acerbic views on current events and the media – as well as pet peeves including tourists, baggage-claim areas, after-shave lotion, adults who roller skate, children who speak French, or anyone who is unduly tan. The New York Times Book Review calls Lebowitz an “important humorist in the classic tradition.” Purveyor of urban cool, Lebowitz is a cultural satirist whom many call the heir to Dorothy Parker.
Lebowitz worked odd jobs, such as taxi driving, belt peddling, and apartment cleaning (“with a small specialty in Venetian blinds”), before being hired by Andy Warhol as a columnist for Interview. That was followed by a stint at Mademoiselle. Her first book, a collection of essays titled Metropolitan Life, was a bestseller, as was a second collection, Social Studies. By turns ironic, facetious, deadpan, sarcastic, wry, wisecracking, and waggish, Lebowitz’s prose is wickedly entertaining.
Between 2001 to 2007, Lebowitz had a recurring role as Judge Janice Goldberg on the television drama Law & Order. She also had a part in the Martin Scorsese-directed film, The Wolf of Wall Street (2013). A raconteur if ever there was one, Lebowitz has long been a regular on various talk shows including those hosted by Jimmy Fallon, Conan O’Brien, and Bill Maher. In an interview with the Paris Review, Lebowitz said “I’m not a nervous person. I’m not afraid to be on TV. I’m only afraid when I write. When I’m at my desk I feel like most people would feel if they went on TV.”

From fiery melodies to lyrical reflections, Strings of Memory promises an evening that is both moving and unforgettable.

Glitterfox
2026-03-19 19:00 - 21:00 | Salem’s Historic Grand Theatre, 187 High St NE, Salem, OR, 97301, United States
Glitterfox doesn’t chase the algorithm – they follow instinct, community, and a kind of magia (Basque for magic). Formed by longtime creative partners Solange Igoa and Andrea Walker, Portland’s Glitterfox has built their career the analog way: a van, a map, and unforgettable shows stitched across towns like constellations. Their rise has been defined by raw connection and fearless self-expression, with music that fuses garage rock grit, new wave shimmer, southern Americana soul, and a dancefloor pulse — all tangled with heart and heat until what emerges is unmistakably, inimitably Glitterfox.
Their debut full-length “decoder” (out August 2024 via Jealous Butcher Records) is a supernova of sound and spirit — a soundtrack for becoming, undoing, and becoming again. The album traces deeply personal terrain: queer love, personal transformation, neurodivergence, and the emotional aftershocks of a romantic split between Igoa and Walker, who remain deeply connected musical collaborators. Tracks like “Passenger,” “Change Me,” “Polaroids,” and the deceptively euphoric “Wildfires” showcase their ability to turn vulnerability into voltage.
Now joined by Eric Stalker and Blaine Heinonen, Glitterfox is more than a band — they’re chosen family, held together by sound and the invisible threads that music always knows how to weave. Whether launching Portland’s annual Glitterfest as a wedding reception or channeling the messy middle of life into something unforgettable, Glitterfox’s gift is their transparency, their defiance, and their freedom — sung loud.

Mendelssohn’s Scottish Symphony
2026-03-20 19:30 | Smith Auditorium, 900 State St, Salem, 97301, United States
Oregon Symphony in Salem presents
Mendelssohn’s Scottish Symphony
There’s nothing like hiking across moors and encountering castle ruins to ignite the creative process—as Mendelssohn experienced it on a tour of Scotland. Holyrood Castle (where Mary Queen of Scots was crowned) inspired the mysterious mood of the Third Symphony’s opening. But the mists ultimately lift in the sunny, lively finale. Plus, Portland favorite Conrad Tao dazzles in Mozart’s 21st Piano Concerto, with its slow movement once described by biographer Maynard Solomon as “an entire movement of unrelieved, time-stopping beauty…for something just short of eternity.”
