08/20/2020 Feature: Spare Change Trio

Spare Change Trio is known largely for their eclectic live performances that incorporate the Australian Yidaki (didgeridoo) into flowing soundscapes of reggae, funk, and jazz-fusion. Deeply rooted in the positive message of reggae music, the band has grown to realize their calling: to spread peace, love, and harmony… while laying down an infectious groove.

Dreams came true for Spare Change Trio last summer when they opened for 311 at the Rave’s Eagle’s Ball Room and had a headlining performance at Madison’s Majestic Theater. They were also honored to tour with Dustin Thomas and play sets at Summerfest, State Fair, People Fest, Peacetree Music Festival, and Wookiefoot’s Shangri-la.

As always Spare Change Trio is eternally grateful for the support of their family and friends!

5th Annual Marcie Eanes and Mary Finley Memorial Black History Month Read-In
2020-02-26 18:00 - 20:30 (America/Chicago) | Racine Public Library, 75 7th St, Racine, WI, 53403, United States
The Racine Public Library in collaboration with The Dr. John Bryant Community Center for the Arts, Family Power Music, Coming Together Racine, The Racine Branch NAACP, and the BONK! Performance Series invites you to The Fifth Annual “Mary Finley and Marcie Eanes Memorial Black History Month Read-In”.* This event will be held in the Adult Services Department of the Racine Public Library, near the east windows, on Wednesday, February 26th from 6 til 8:30 pm.
A Black History Month Read-In is an event where community members of all different backgrounds join together to celebrate the vibrant legacy of black contributions to world literature. Readers are invited to take 5 minutes to read a piece (or an excerpt of a piece) of writing written by someone from the black diaspora. Audience members will be treated to words of some of the most accomplished minds in human history. All will be sure not only to hear from some well-known favorites but also to learn of some authors you’ve likely never heard of before.
Send any further questions to Nick Demske at nick.demske@racinelibrary.info or 262-631-0021.
See you there!
*About the name of this event: Mary Finley and Marcie Eanes were two prominent black women residents of Racine who were inspirations both in the Racine community locally, as well as the literary community nationally–Mary as an ambassador and literary agent and Marcie as a writer herself and supporter of the arts. Mary went to join the elders in 2014 and Marcie’s homegoing was in 2015. Shortly before Marcie had passed away, she was chosen as one of the finalists for the Racine Poet Laureate position. We are honored to be able to celebrate these two women as leaders of both Racine’s Black Community, as well as Racine’s Literary Community.
