the Asheville Guitar Bar, a discussion series provides deeper understanding
and greater enjoyment of classic albums and recording artists. Led by
Asheville author and music journalist Bill Kopp, Music to Your Ears is an
interactive experience that shines a light on important music and people.
Music to Your Ears is a 90-minute conversation, held at the Guitar Bar, a
music magnet in Asheville’s historic River Arts District. The July 5 event is a
listening party and discussion focusing on Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders
from Mars, the classic 1972 album from David Bowie.
David Bowie was already some eight-plus into his career as a musician and
recording artist when he created the landmark album The Rise and Fall of
Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. The 1972 LP – his fifth – represented an artistic breakthrough. Though he had
already scored hit albums and singles in the UK and the United States, Ziggy Stardust brought him to prominence globally. The
album’s loose concept centering around a cosmic rock ‘n’ roller gave rise to a compelling stage show, with Bowie adopting the
first of a succession of onstage personae. And the music on Ziggy Stardust – from the hit single “Starman” to beloved tracks
like “Suffragette City” and the album’s title track – influenced glam rock and the punk movement that was soon to come.
More than a half-century after its release, Ziggy Stardust continues to amaze and inspire listeners. Most recently, D.A.
Pennebaker’s concert film from Bowie’s 1973 tour in support of the album has been re-released to theaters, renewing interest
in the million-selling music. A timeless album, Ziggy Stardust sounds as fresh and vital today as it did 50-plus years ago.
Now there’s an opportunity to enjoy and appreciate Ziggy Stardust with fellow music lovers. Author and music journalist
Bill Kopp will be joined by Mark Casson – singer, musician and songwriter for The Cheeksters as well as long-time leader of
tribute group Wham Bam Bowie Band – for an evening of listening and conversation about Ziggy Stardust. Casson may even
sing and play a song or two from the classic album. The evening is the latest installment of the popular “Music to Your Ears’
discussion series, hosted by Asheville guitar Bar and sponsored by AshevilleFM.
Join host and music journalist Bill Kopp for an evening in discussion with Mark Casson about David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust.
We’ll listen to key tracks from the album, and encourage questions from the audience.
ABOUT THE DISCUSSION SERIES
Music to Your Ears is Bill Kopp’s monthly discussion series hosted by
Asheville Guitar Bar and co-sponsored by AshevilleFM. On the first
Wednesday of each month, music enthusiasts gather to discuss an important
album, artist or musical movement. An interactive evening, Music to Your
Ears isn’t a lecture; it’s a discussion led by experts and designed to enrich the listening experience.

HARBOUR
Since their formation in 2014, HARBOUR has gone from packing rooms in their native Cincinnati to selling out venues across the United States. With three tours already under their belt in 2022, and more cross-country shows on the way, the band has no plans of slowing down anytime soon. Members Ryan Green (vocals/guitar), Jarett Lewis (guitar), Ryan Sulken (drums), Walker Atkinson (bass), and Devon Turner (guitar) have curated an infectious indie pop/rock sound that transfers seamlessly into their live shows. During their tenure as a group, HARBOUR has delivered an EP and three full length albums.
Their latest single, “Swimming In My Head,” is the third track to come off of their latest LP, poised for release in early 2023. The song vocalizes the insomnia-fueled thoughts that make a person feel like they’re drowning in their own head; the hypotheticals and hindsights that keep one up all night.
The contemplative, often ruminating lyrical matter of HARBOUR’s music finds juxtaposition against playful melodies that perfectly encapsulate the boundless energy the band brings to all their performances – each of which begin with an enthusiastic shout to the crowd: “Let’s have some fun!”
