Dr. Tish Oney, international recording artist, arranger, composer and Artistic Director of several productions, currently tours as a symphony pops soloist, big band soloist, jazz vocalist, light lyric soprano, and artist-in-residence. Oney presents symphony shows and big band shows written by Grammy-winning arrangers Chris Walden and Bill Cunliffe as well as Juno-winner, Jason Goldman, and Joe Riposo. An avid arranger and composer in her own right, Oney has arranged several hundred pieces for jazz combo including hits from the Great American Songbook as well as her originals. A talented and esteemed choral conductor, she is called upon to work with professional, university and community choirs, and with vocal jazz ensembles as a guest conductor or artist-in-residence.
Tish is currently producing her fifth major recording project–this time with John Chiodini (guitar), Chuck Berghofer (bass) and Ray Brinker (drums). This jazz album, The Best Part, serves as a compilation of new original songs by contemporary jazz composers, including three never-before-heard songs with lyrics by jazz diva Peggy Lee. This album is due to be released in the winter of 2019. Oney’s 2015 recording of original vocal/guitar duets titled Songs From the Heart, was honored by the Recording Academy on the 2016 first-round Grammy ballot in three categories, including “Song of the Year”. Oney’s previous albums, Sweet Youth, Dear Peg, and Forever Friend, also achieved international airplay, Grammy consideration, and critical acclaim.
Oney has performed and/or recorded with hundreds of renowned jazz artists and has headlined at thousands of live performances worldwide. She was featured as a big band/symphony soloist in the PBS-broadcast concert recorded at Galen Center in Los Angeles: “We Love Ella! A Tribute to the First Lady of Song,” along with Natalie Cole, Nancy Wilson, Stevie Wonder, Wynonna, Patti Austin, and Take 6, emceed by Quincy Jones and produced by Phil Ramone, who personally congratulated her after the concert saying: “The future of this music is in very good hands…” She has performed as soloist with the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, The Williamsburg Symphony, The Spartanburg Philharmonic Orchestra, Symphoria, several U.S. Army Bands and other outstanding ensembles. She has headlined at Earshot Jazz Festival and Kirkland Performance Center (Kirkland, WA), Sam’s Town Casino (Las Vegas, NV), Syracuse Jazzfest (Syracuse, NY), The Peace Center (Greenville, SC), Wilson Center for the Arts (Brookfield, WI), Schaumburg Prairie Center for the Arts (Schaumburg, IL), The Glen Ridge Performing Arts Center (Sarasota, FL), Thousand Oaks Civic Arts (Thousand Oaks, CA), Zimmerli Amphitheatre (5000 attending, Spartanburg, SC), the Crouse-Hinds Concert Hall (2200 attending, Syracuse, NY) and the Hawai’i Convention Center (4000 attending, Honolulu, HI), among other large venues. She has appeared as headlining performer at many jazz hotspots including The Jazz Bakery in Los Angeles, The Jazz Corner on Hilton Head Island, Feinstein’s at Loews Regency and the off-Broadway theatre, The Triad, in New York. An experienced film, stage, and television actress, Oney imbues her live performances with dramatic power and warmth.
Dr. Oney was honored in 2016 to win the Jazz Artist/Group of the Year award from the South Carolina Music Awards, and in 2015 her high school honored her as one of the inaugural five ‘Graduates of Distinction.’ She was lauded in the book The Jazz Singers: The Ultimate Guide authored by jazz critic Scott Yanow. She was also honored to be named a USC Winter Scholar for her development of two touring symphony shows, and was named a Robert G. Boehmler Visiting Artist at Ithaca College School of Music. A recipient of The Diane Warren Award, Dr. Oney earned two initiations (by faculty at both IC and USC) into national music honor society Pi Kappa Lambda for her musical excellence. Dr. Oney earned her Doctor of Musical Arts degree with honors from the University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music, and a Master of Music degree with honors in Voice Performance from Ithaca College.
In addition to her full performing and recording career, Dr. Oney previously maintained a dual career as a professor of music at several major universities and colleges, serving most recently as Coordinator of Music, Director of Jazz Studies and Commercial Music, Director of Voice Studies and Director of Choral Activities. Several of her former voice students have gone on to major careers on Broadway, as well as in opera, jazz and commercial music. Considered an expert in voice and choral music across many genres, Dr. Oney authors peer-reviewed books and articles, and travels widely to perform, record, conduct, and teach jazz, classical, music theatre and commercial styles. She teaches lessons in voice and piano at her home studio in Greenville, SC, as well as Skype voice lessons for students throughout the United States. A prolific jazz journalist and contributing author to The Journal of Singing, Oney writes a quarterly column titled “Anatomy of a Standard,” for the online jazz magazine, All About Jazz. Her diverse artistic talents combine to form an outstanding performing artist with exceptional technique, improvisational skill, and expertise.

? WE HAVE SOLD OUT! ?
The early Egyptians recognized the Spring Equinox as a sacred turning point of the year, and built the Great Sphinx so that it points directly toward the rising Sun on that day every rotation. For our ancestors, the birth of spring meant that winter’s cold was ebbing, dwindling food supplies would soon be replenished and bellies would be full once again — certainly a cause for celebration!
Join us as we celebrate the astrological new year with the FIRST EVER electronic music performance in a dome theatre on March 22nd.
Desert Dwellers have been blowing our minds for years, most recently on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC. We’ve become huge Datagrama fans after first seeing their visual accompaniment to Tipper’s sets at Okeechobee, Resonance, and Tipsgiving this past year. These two acts will be simultaneously performing under a 76 foot 360-degree dome theatre for you and your 224 cosmic companions.
Jack Hurley will be providing visuals for the opening acts,
follow him on instagram @anti_alias_
supporting musicians will be announced soon!
FREE fruit, water, and healthy snacks will be provided through the night, no alcohol will be served, and live art will surround the theatre for your viewing pleasure during your celebration.

Peace, love, unity and respect. The four pillars of the rave scene. United like holy Tetris blocks to form the foundation of our culture’s core values.
Music was the heart of the scene ranging from trance, breakbeat, house, drum and bass, to many others.
And who could forget the fashion?! Giant clothes, either b-boy style, candy raver to groovy dance floor diva.
Greenville had a strong rave scene in the 90s. Everyone knew everyone. Many talented DJs emerged and lit up parties in all corners of Greenville. You may have been part of it, or maybe you weren’t born yet. Either way, 90s rave culture opened the doors for the EDM culture and festivals you see today.

Join us for our 8th incredible trip up and down the future route of the Firefly Trail on Saturday, March 23, 2019, with distance options of 1-87 miles on our out-and-back course. This year we are again planning three starting locations with five SAG stops, on-road support, and plenty of beautiful scenery and friendly small towns.

ABOUT THE RIDE
Choose to start from:
• Jittery Joe’s Roaster, 425 Barber Street, Athens
• Winterville Depot, 102 S. Main St., Winterville
• Union Theatre, Fluker Street, Union Point
The full out-and-back course from either Athens or Union Point is about 87 miles, with fully-stocked SAG stops (including restrooms) every 9-13 miles. This ride features the lowest-traffic paved roads we could find close to the historic corridor of the Georgia Railroad Athens Branch. Riders who prefer flatter terrain will especially enjoy the route from Union Point to Woodville or Maxeys. Ride to a SAG stop and back for an option of as little as 10 miles or choose your own distance – whether 1 mile or all 87 – by turning around wherever you wish. It’s a perfect ride for cyclists of all interests and abilities, and a great warm-up for the spring event season.

Trail status:
When completed, the Firefly Trail will provide safe and level opportunities for walking, running, bicycling, skating, active commuting, and other non-motorized activities. It will be a nationally significant rail-trail connecting schools, businesses and communities across three counties.
In 2017, Athens-Clarke County opened the first section of the trail between East Broad Street and Old Winterville Road. With $16.7 million in voter-approved TSPLOST funding, planning and design are underway for a segment in Winterville, a railroad-grade crossing of Trail Creek, a bridge over the future US 78/Loop 10 onramp, and paved trail out to Hancock Road or beyond.
Meanwhile, Maxeys expects to pave its “Model Mile” as soon as all rights of way can be acquired, and Union Point is raising funds to match a $100,000 grant to build a Model Mile from downtown to the Union Point STEAM Academy. A Local Action Committee has formed in Greene County and other communities are exploring opportunities.
Up and down the corridor, your involvement is making a difference. Thank you for your support of the Firefly Trail.
See our sponsors at www.fireflytrail.com. Be sure to tell them thanks!

A seasoned veteran of recording and performing, Desmelik states of his career thus far, “I have recorded in state of the art studios and bedroom closets. I have performed on big festival stages for numerous people and in lonely corners in dive bars for three people and the bartender. Either way, what you get is me with my eyes closed getting lost in these songs. I have chosen the life of a songwriter and musician not because I wish to, or have to, but because I want to and need to. It is my therapy and in this regard the door to my sessions are open.”

Dance, theatre, music, film, comedy, spoken word, readings, solos, groups, short and long works, the undefinable. There’s even a little room for some out-of-the-ordinary visual art. This is a work in progress, so talk to us. Let us know what you want to perform or exhibit. But you must apply by April 15. All it takes is a quick email to Sandy Staggs. See details online at SpartanburgFringeFestival.com.
