Battle over abortion to be decided by state courts

By Andy Brack As state lawmakers consider abortion proposals that are more restrictive than a six-week fetal heartbeat ban now in place in South Carolina, abortion rights supporters have turned to state courts to protect women’s reproductive health through the state’s constitutional right to privacy.

“There is a reasonable expectation [in the state constitution] for the right to privacy to extend to the body and decisions about your body,” said state Sen. Brad Hutto, an Orangeburg Democrat who serves as the Senate minority leader. “A judge is going to have to sort this out.”

On Wednesday, women’s health advocates filed a state lawsuit to challenge South Carolina’s new law limiting abortions. Meanwhile on July 19, abortion supporters and opponents met at the Statehouse to rally for and against an all-out abortion ban that’s being considered by a special House committee. A similar measure with no exceptions is expected to be taken up in August by a Senate committee.

New lawsuit focuses on an old issue — privacy

At issue now in state court is the right to privacy as it relates to abortion.

When the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark Roe v. Wade decision in 1973, it found an implicit constitutional right to privacy. In other words, it said the U.S. Constitution protected access to abortion because of a right to privacy. But on June 24 with the Dobbs v.

With abortion mostly out, Blotter of the Week vasectomies may have rosier future With abortions mostly off the table now in South Carolina, there’s been more interest among males in a birth control option, according to local doctors and media reports. The number of male patients seeking vasectomy consultations seems to be increasing, said local urologist Dr. Case Wood with Lowcountry Urology Clinics.

“Our group has not, in the last few months, accumulated any data on the rise in vasectomy consults, but anecdotally, I would say that definitely seems to be the case,” Wood said.

Articles are circulating in the national media about, ahem, rising numbers of men interested in vasectomies in light of the recent overturning of Roe v. Wade, the landmark decision that protected a woman’s right to choose to have an abortion.

Vasectomy is a form of birth control via medical sterilization that prevents sperm from moving from testicals through the vas deferens, prohibiting it from combining with semen.

Over the last year, Planned Parenthood has been offering vasectomy services at two health centers in Columbia and Charleston, including counseling consultations for those interested in undergoing the procedure.

Although the vasectomy service is a relatively new program for the health care provider, Rivera noted there are an increased number of calls from people inquiring about vasectomies.

“It’s still to be seen whether or not [those calls] translate into more vasectomies,” she said. “It’s definitely on people’s minds. We’ve seen this elsewhere, like when Donald Trump got elected president, we saw a

similar increase in the number of people looking into longer-acting birth control methods. People were fearful that the Trump administration was going to restrict access to birth control, but that actually never really came to fruition. Maybe we’re starting to see the effects of that now.”

The average patient

Lowcountry Urology’s average vasectomy patient is a man in his late-20s to early-40s who is married and has children.

“It’s usually a couple, the patient and the spouse, who do not desire any[more] children in the future,” Wood said.

MUSC Health physician Dr. Barry Lifson, who has been practicing urology for decades, said he hasn’t been inundated with men requesting vasectomies.“It may be because it’s only been a couple of weeks since they had the big Supreme Court decision — that’s where all this [discussion] is really being driven from,” he said. “But I don’t know that there’s been enough time for us to really see a change that fast.”

To Lifson, it will be more telling to look at statistical changes with sterilization procedures after considerable time has passed under new statutes that limit or ban access to abortion. Pro-life statutes actually could cause fertility rates to drop as men and women respond to the ban on abortions with more permanent solutions, such as tubal ligation for women and vasectomy for men, he said.

“You’re hearing anecdotally in the media that there’s going to be a big request for

tubal ligation and vasectomy because of Roe v. Wade,” Lifson said. “I think what would be really interesting, in the future, will be to look at the differences between blue states versus red states — where you have one state where they’re not restricting abortion and another state nearby where they are restricting.”

Access can be impediment

But vasectomies aren’t for every guy.

“Typically Black men don’t get vasectomies for different reasons,” said Dr. Thaddeus Bell with Thaddeus John Bell Family Practice.

“The main [reason] is that in order to get that procedure done, you [need] to have health insurance,” he said. “So with a lot of Black men not having health insurance, that’s a major barrier. While the Roe v. Wade decision is on the mind of Black men, they don’t look at vasectomy as a way of coping with the matter.”

The search is now afoot for two new local pet stars in the Charleston Animal Society’s third annual Rescue Brew Beer contest.

“As a rescue dog owner myself, this is near and dear to my heart as there has never been a brighter time than when I discovered my sweet Lola at six weeks old in a box outside a convenience store in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, 13 years ago,” said Ian Berg, a vice president of Palmetto Brewing Company, which is brewing a special small batch beer for the contest.

Pet owners entered almost 700 dogs and cats in last year’s contest. Nominations for dogs and cats for this year’s search started Friday. The winning spokescat and spokesdog will appear on cans of 2022 Rescue Brew Beer by Palmetto Brewing Company.

Support journalism competition bills to make tech titans pay for fair news use P

Views 07.20.2022

ick up the phone now to contact your members of Congress and encourage them to add their support to a new proposal to allow local journalism to thrive in a media environment fraught with financial challenges and pitfalls.

The new Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA), backed by a bipartisan mix of 75 senators and representatives, seeks to rein in out-of-control technology titans that use their power to manipulate the local news environment for their own gain. While local newspapers and broadcasters pay to develop local news that energizes communities, Big Tech often simply takes the information and republishes it, refusing to pay fairly for the work.

The JCPA, introduced in the U.S. Senate by Washington Democratic Sen. Maria Cantwell and co-sponsored by South Carolina Republican U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, seeks to address this threat to local journalism by Big Tech. It’s kind of complicated, but the bill calls for a temporary, limited antitrust safe harbor for small, local news publishers to negotiate collectively with the tech titans for fair compensation for use of their content. The measure, supported by a blend of 64 House members including Republican Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina, is narrowly tailored to ensure coordination by news publishers is only in the interest of protecting trustworthy, quality journalism. Moreover, the bill is designed to incentivize and reward publishers who invest in local journalism and newsroom professionals.

This bill joins another proposal that would help local

newspapers, 1,800 of which have gone dark since 2004.

As we wrote in December, the proposed Local Journalism Sustainability Act would provide a series of tax credits to local newspapers to offset financial hardships worsened in the pandemic. The bill, supported by 93 members of Congress in both chambers, would help newspapers survive an array of forces that have sucked away the money they need to keep the doors open, such as greatly reduced advertising revenues, loss of circulation, the rising cost of newsprint and inflation.

Both of these congressional bills are temporary lifelines in a challenging media environment now dominated by Big Tech. The main reason for you to support these bills? Because without investments in local news by local media outlets, all you would be left with is clickbait. If local news outlets can’t produce local news, our democracy suffers and won’t function properly. No longer would there be trained watchdogs to protect the public interest. No longer would there be professionals who work day in and day out to make sure the government is accountable and not rife with corruption.

The land of the free and home of the brave is paved with good information about how our democracy works. But without local news publishers and broadcasters to provide that information, we fall deeper into the pit of untruth, partisanship and meaningless clickbait.

We encourage you to contact your members of Congress today and urge them to sign on to support the Local Journalism Sustainability Act and the relatively new Journalism Competition and Preservation Act.

OPINION

Memoir on “whiteness” is important, albeit uncomfortable, read By Andy Brack If South Carolina-born author Baynard Woods had his way, you would only read his name these days with a line through it like this: Baynard Woods.

But newspaper style is to be clear in writing, not to obfuscate, which is what a strikethrough does. Woods, however, uses the device in his new book to make a clear point — by striking through his name, he’s acknowledging the racial ills attached to his family from the past that he can’t escape while highlighting how it’s important for us all to move beyond race.

“I needed a way to reject my family’s role in the history of slavery without denying it,” Woods explained in a July 8 piece in The Washington Post about the new book, Inheritance: An Autobiography of Whiteness.

If you live in New Hampshire, Oregon or Utah, this is a difficult book to read. If you live in South Carolina or anywhere in the South, it’s downright uncomfortable because of how it explores “whiteness” in the modern context.

But what Woods has done throughout the stark work is to birth a 338-page intervention on race.

He has thought deeply about how the roots of racism and privilege attached to being White slither and strangle just about anything in their grasp. To ignore this sleuthing memoir is to continue the all-too-familiar and passive acceptance of the fundamental divide and outright trouble caused by racial identity in the South through three centuries.

The book follows Woods, born in 1972, from a boyhood in Columbia and Greenville. There’s attention to family, dysfunction and rebellion, including lots of teen time spent drinking, smoking weed and getting into trouble.

Woods shares how he didn’t immediately go to college, but took a long road trip with a stripper before ending up in New Mexico. He eventually settled into a college where he learned ancient Greek and Latin. Over time, he got a Ph.D. in ancient philosophy, became a teacher in an innercity school and ended up being an alternative newspaper editor in Baltimore.

Interspersed in visits to family are musings and references to South Carolina — from NASCAR races, country music, Edisto Island tomatoes and childhood heroes who were Confederate generals to the removal of the Confederate flag at the Statehouse, the 2015 massacre at Emanuel AME Church and Black Bike Week at Atlantic Beach.

After the Emanuel shooting in Charleston that killed nine worshipers, Woods started exploring his family, both sides of which are reflected in his name. He discovered, to his shame, the Baynards were thought to have owned 781

people in 1860, while the Woods possessed 23 slaves.

But the central driver in the book is the story of his great-grandfather, Dr. I.M. Woods. He was a Confederate veteran from Clarendon County who fled the state during Reconstruction after being implicated in the 1871 murder of a Black county commissioner, Peter J. Lemon. Woods later returned, only to be “praised by other White people as a man who could be counted on when times got tough.” He was elected to the Redemption legislature and helped foster the Jim Crow era which continued South Carolina’s racial divisions for generations.

And what did most White people do through these decades? They were complicit by ignoring or accepting the apartheid that resulted. As Woods writes at the end of the book, “ ‘We don’t see color’ became the most effective way for them to maintain the power open white supremacy had gained them. Because now in order to recognize those advantages, one would have to invoke race. If you refuse to acknowledge race, then you don’t have to acknowledge those advantages.”

Inheritance is a tough book to read. But it’s a guide to better understand the White privilege that many may not realize is embedded in their pasts.

Exploring the colorful world of Charleston’s tattooing community

By Samantha Connors

Feature 07.20.2022

he methodical, muted buzzing of a tattoo machine radiates from an artist’s booth like the sound emanating from a beehive. The clean, sterile smell of green soap, an environmentally friendly vegetablebased product used by tattoo artists and piercers to clean and soothe skin, fills the air. Framed tattoo artwork of every size, shape, color and style decorates the walls.

You’ve just walked into a tattoo shop.

Twenty years ago, this experience was unheard of in Charleston, or anywhere in South Carolina, as the state banned tattoos in the 1960s after a nationwide panic over a hepatitis outbreak in New York City thought to be linked to a Coney Island tattoo artist.

As a result, many states moved to ban the practice, leading to decades-long legal battles to bring tattooing back. By 2004 when South Carolina lawmakers lifted the restriction, the Palmetto State and Oklahoma were the only two states that still prohibited tattooing.

After the new law passed, it took another two years before shops in Charleston opened due to local zoning laws that can still make it difficult to open a new shop today thanks to specific restrictions around the size of the space and locations where shops can operate.

Rising popularity Margo Venomous tattoos various styles from black and gray illustrative realism to full color

Despite obstacles, tattooing has become a common practice in Charleston and nationwide.

According to a 2019 poll conducted by Ipsos, 30% of Americans have tattoos compared to 21% in 2012. Of those with at least one tattoo, 92% said they were happy with the decision. The study found younger people

tend to be more likely to get tattooed — 46% of people ages 18-34 and 36% of people ages 35-54 said they had at least one.

Tattoo artist Betsy Butler, who works at The Gilded Mermaid in Ravenel, said she gets clients from all walks of life.

“If you look at the cross section of who my clients are, there’s really nothing that combines them,” she said. “They’re mothers, grandmothers, teachers, government workers, doctors, bakers and everybody in between.”

Tattoos were once associated with rowdy sailors and hard criminals, but they have integrated into mainstream culture, though some stigmas have stuck around.

“I think the doors have definitely been opened,” said Butler. “Access to things like Instagram have really allowed that for people. People are seeing potential for themselves whereas maybe they never wanted to get tattooed before.

“And I’m stoked that I make tattoos that moms like. A lot of clients will come in and say, ‘Oh, my mom’s gonna hate this,’ and then I’ll get a message from them on Instagram a few weeks later saying, ‘My mom loved it. She said it was so beautiful!’ ”

Misplaced stigma

Part of the stigma that remains is the misplaced notion that women with tattoos lose their femininity because some people still associate tattoos with masculinity, Butler said.

But there are ways to give a soft, feminine look to tattoos if that’s what a client wants.

Today’s women, however, aren’t restricted by definitions of femininity and masculinity; they’re getting all kinds of designs from colorful flowers to darkly shaded skulls — and sometimes even more unusual designs.

“Years ago, I tattooed a girl who tattoos now I think in Tennessee. But before she

was even apprenticing, we did a giant vagina with a French mustache on her hip,” said Margo Venomous who tattoos at Holy City Tattooing Collective in West Ashley. “There’s not a whole lot of tattoos that I think are dumb ideas. Get the funny ones, let’s have a ball and make it into a great experience.”

Men are also starting to move away from a strict definition of masculine tattoos. City Paper’s 2022 Best Tattoo Artist winner Ashley B. McMullen recounted a Hello Kitty tattoo she did on a guy’s mid-lower back, a placement often called a “tramp stamp.”

“I also did a jean pocket on a guy’s

buttcheek once,” she said, laughing.

But, research released in 2012 by the Oxygen Network and Lightspeed Research found women were actually more likely to be inked despite historical stigmas that associated tattooed women with social deviation and promiscuity. Out of the population of people with tattoos, 59% were women compared to 41% of men.

Enter the women

Stigmas surrounding women and tattoos didn’t just impact those who wanted to sport some body art. It made it difficult for women to break into the profession, too.

“When I first started, tattooing was very different,” said McMullen, who has been tattooing for 15 years and also works at Holy City Tattooing Collective in West

mother. All the dudes at the shop respected the hell out of her. And it wasn’t because she’s a girl. She’s busy because she’s a badass.”

Unleashing creativity

The art of tattooing allows for a flow of ideas between the client and the artist, which can make for some truly unique designs. Butler is known in the tattoo world for her neotraditional fandom art, creating colorful tattoos inspired by series like Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings and Star Wars.

“I like to tattoo things that I love,” she said. “I really love plants, animals and birds.

And I’m a huge nerd, so I love my fandoms.

I think it’s important to go to somebody who also likes those things because they can have more insight, more ideas.”

Butler tries to create more than just a testament to a series when she does fandom tattoos, working with clients to capture a feeling or a specific recollection connected to these beloved stories.

Currently, she said she’s excited about a large-scale Harry Potter piece and a Star Wars design as well as a full sleeve that subtly depicts female Disney characters including nods to everyone from Belle to Ursula.

Butler, Venomous and McMullen emphasized the importance of knowing your artists and getting tattooed by someone you feel comfortable with and whose art you enjoy. McMullen said she likes doing the American traditional style of tattooing as well as lettering and flowers.

Researching artists on Instagram or booking a pre-appointment consultation is the best way to find the right tattooer for you, they said.

“And, trust the process,” said McMullen. “I think some people forget that as tattoo artists, we know how to draw, so we’ll work with you to design something you want and love.”

Regardless of the design, getting a tattoo can be a transformative experience and help one have a sense of control over their own body and skin, said Butler.

“I’ve had so many clients change their entire lives — the way they looked at themselves, the way they dressed — based on a tattoo. And as someone who has had that happen to them, it’s really beautiful to see.”

Former Ink Masters contestant Ashley B. McMullen was named Best Tattoo Artist in 2022 Best of Charleston

Ashley. “But now, there is so much support for women in the tattoo industry. Some clients prefer to only get tattooed by female artists. When I first started, there wasn’t anything like that. People shied away from getting tattooed by me because I was a girl.”

This is a sentiment echoed by many female artists in the industry. Venomous, now 45, attended high school in Summerville and began tattooing when she was 18. She moved away in 1995 and bounced around the Southeast pursuing a career in tattooing and “having adventures.”

“The only way to get into a tattoo shop [as a woman] was to learn to pierce, but I don’t like hurting people,” said Venomous. “I like the way piercings look, but I didn’t want to do that. But, it was my only viable way into a shop other than dating some gross 50-yearold biker. I don’t even fault anybody. It really was whatever you can do to learn a little bit.”

Venomous moved back to Charleston after tattooing was legalized, but still faced gender discrimination and predatory behavior from male clients and tattooers, though she said this attitude has changed over the years.

“I like working in a mixed shop,” she said of working with male and female artists, “because for a while, I was a novelty and the weird one. Women have been fetishized in this business for a while.”

“It’s amazing how it’s changed,” said McMullen, “Because you can feel more comfortable getting tattooed and being a female tattooer.”

For Butler, who landed her tattooing apprenticeship at Blu Gorilla 12 years ago while Venomous was working there, most of her clients today are women. She speculated that perhaps more women are getting tattooed because of the changing cultural view of body art and the wider acceptance of women working in the industry.

“Margo was really inspiring to me. At the time, there were hardly any females tattooing, much less in Charleston,” Butler said of Venomous. “As an apprentice, it was incredible to see Photos provided somebody so strong and getting so much respect. She was like the lead artist. She was number one, and she was a

39D John St., Downtown (843) 722-8838 Holycityhospitality.com Open daily (Dinner) Start your meal at Coast with two different ceviches — a classic shrimp ceviche and cangrejo ceviche. Shrimp is the obvious star of the shrimp ceviche, but tomato, onion, lime juice and cilantro highlight the dish’s freshness and a side of corn chips add a crunchy element. The cangrejo, though, is for those with a sea-faring palate. It combines blue crab and scallops with pico de gallo and juice from lemons, limes and oranges.

Bodega is hosting its first ever Tacos + Tequila Tasting July 28 from 7-10 p.m.

Tickets for the event are $75, and include four specialty tacos curated by executive chef Alec Gropman. The tacos are paired with tequilas provided by Camarena and Don Fulano tequilas. Tickets can be purchased through EventBrite.

Charleston restaurants offer an abundance of fresh seafood dishes like crudo, tartare and sushi. But one South American seafood dish has found its place on Holy City menus: ceviche.

“Ceviche is just seafood cooked in citrus,” said Raul Sanchez, executive chef and owner of Maya del Sol Kitchen. “Lemon, lime, orange — whatever you get your hands on.”

Peruvians claim to have invented ceviche, Sanchez said. Peruvians have something called leche de tigre (tiger’s milk), a “juice concoction” of raw fish, citrus juice like lime and lemon, ginger, garlic and habanero blended together to form a briney liquid.

That liquid is then used to make ceviche.

There are many different combinations of fish, citrus, pepper and aromatic elements used to create the dish. And with seafood and fresh local vegetables aplenty in the Charleston area, ceviche should be a nobrainer on a menu.

It’s deliciously refreshing and easy to make at home (just remember to let the fish “cook” in the citrus for at least two to three hours before serving). But if you want a taste of what the city’s restaurants have to offer, here are five places with their own takes on ceviche.

Free Will Astrology ARIES (March 21-April 19): You are entering the Season of Love’s Renewal. To celebrate, I offer you a poem by eighth-century Tamil poet Andal.

Whatever gender you may be, I invite you to visualize yourself as the “Snakewaist woman” she addresses.

Here’s Andal, bringing a fiery splash of exclamation points: “Arouse, Snakewaist woman! Strut your enchantment! Swoop your mirth and leap your spiral reverence! As wild peacocks shimmer and ramble and entice the lightning-nerved air! Summon thunderheads of your love! Command the sentient wind!

Resurrect the flavor of eternal birth!”

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Tips to get the most out of the next three weeks: 1. Work harder, last longer, and finish with more grace than everyone else. 2. Be in love with beauty. Crave it, surround yourself with it, and create it. Be especially enamored of beautiful things that are also useful. 3. Taste the mist, smell the clouds, kiss the music, praise the earth, and listen to the moon in the daytime sky.

4. Never stop building! Keep building and building and building: your joy, your security, your love, your beauty, your stamina, your sense of wonder.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Gemini astrologer Astrolocherry says that while Geminis “can appear naive and air-headed to onlookers, their minds usually operate at light speed. They naturally absorb every surrounding particle of intellectual stimuli.

They constantly observe their interactions for opportunities to grow their knowledge.” I believe these qualities will function at peak intensity during the next four weeks, Gemini — maybe even beyond peak intensity. Please try to enjoy the hell out of this phase without becoming manic or overwrought. If all goes well, you could learn more in the next four weeks than most people learn in four months.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Naeem Callaway founded Get Out The Box, an organization that mentors at-risk youth in low-income and rural communities. Here’s one of his central teachings: “Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life. Tiptoe if you must, but take the step.” Even if you don’t fit the profile of the people Callaway serves, his advice is perfect for you right now. For the time being, I urge you to shelve any plans you might have for grandiose actions. Focus on just one of the many possible tasks you could pursue and carry it out with determined focus.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A Leo astrologer I’ve known for years told me, “Here’s a secret about us Lions. No matter what happens, despite any pitfalls and pratfalls, my ego will stay intact. It ain’t gonna crack. You can hurl five lightning bolts’ worth of insults at my skull, and I will walk away without even a hint of a concussion. I believe in myself and worship myself, but even more importantly: I trust my own self-coherence like I trust the sun to shine.”

Wow! That’s quite a testimony. I’m not sure I fully buy it, though. I have known a few Leos whose confidence wavered in the wake of a minor misstep. But here’s the point of my horoscope: I encourage you to allow a slight ego deflation in the coming days.

If you do, I believe it will generate a major blossoming of your ego by August. And that would be a very good thing.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Virgo poet Claude de Burine described how one night when she was three years old, she sneaked out of the house with her parents’ champagne bucket so she could fill it up with moonlight. I think activities like this will be a worthy pursuit for you in the coming days. You’re entering a favorable phase to go in quest of lyrical, fanciful experiences. I hope you will make yourself available for marvels and curiosities and fun surprises.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): There is a distinction between being nice and being kind. Being nice is often motivated by mechanical politeness, by a habitbound drive to appear pleasant. It may be rooted more in a desire to be liked than in an authentic urge to bestow blessings. On the other hand, being kind is a sincere expression of care and concern for another. It fosters genuine intimacy. I bring these thoughts

By Rob Brezsny

to your attention because I think that one of Libra’s life-long tasks is to master the art of being kind rather than merely nice. And right now is an especially favorable phase for you to refine your practice.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You sometimes feel you have to tone down your smoldering intensity, avert your dark-star gazes, conceal your sultry charisma, dumb down your persuasive speech, pretend you don’t have so much stamina, disguise your awareness of supernatural connections, act less like a saint and martyr in your zealous devotions, and refrain from revealing your skill at reading between the lines. But none of that avoidance stuff usually works very well. The Real You leaks out into view. In the coming weeks, I hope you won’t engage in any of the hiding behavior I described. It’s a favorable time to freely pour forth your Scorpionic blessings.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): There could be interesting and important events happening while you sleep in the coming nights. If a butterfly lands on you in a dream, it may mean you’re prepping for a spiritual transformation in waking life. It could be a sign you’re receptive to a breakthrough insight you weren’t previously open to. If you dream of a baby animal, it might signify you’re ready to welcome a rebirth of a part of you that has been dormant or sluggish or unavailable. Dreams in which you’re flying suggest you may soon escape a sense of heaviness or inertia.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): How to be the best Capricorn you can be in the coming weeks and months: 1. Develop a disciplined, well-planned strategy to achieve more freedom. 2. Keep clambering upwards even if you have no competitors and there’s no one else at the top. 3. Loosen your firm grasp and steely resolve just enough so you can allow the world to enjoy you. 4. Don’t let the people you love ever think you take them for granted. 5. Be younger today than you were yesterday.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In the next seven to eight weeks, I’d love for you to embody an attitude about intimacy articulated by author Hélène Cixous. Here’s her aspiration: “I want to love a person freely, including all her secrets. I want to love in this person someone she doesn’t know. I want to love without judgment, without fault. Without false, without true. I want to meet her between the words, beneath language.” And yes, dear Aquarius, I know this is a monumental undertaking. If it appeals to you at all, just do the best you can to incorporate it.

Perfection isn’t required.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I periodically consult a doctor of Chinese Medicine who tells me that one of the best things I can do for my health is to walk barefoot — EVERYWHERE! On the sidewalk, through buildings, and especially in the woods and natural areas. He says that being in direct contact with our beloved earth can provide me with energetic nourishment not possible any other way. I have resisted the doc’s advice so far. It would take the soles of my feet a while to get accustomed to the wear and tear of barefoot walking. I bring this up, Pisces, because the coming weeks will be an excellent time for you to try what I haven’t yet. In fact, anything you do to deepen your connection with the earth will be extra healing. I invite you to lie in the sand, hug trees, converse with birds, shout prayers to mountains, and bathe in rivers or lakes.

Homework: To heal yourself, bestow two blessings, one on a human and one on an animal.

Bluegrass outfit the Infamous Stringdusters will take to the stage in the Pour House parking lot July 29

Travis Book remains infamous as his ’Dusters return to Pour House

Culture 07.20.2022

By Kevin Murphy Wilson

Travis Book is a podcast host, father and master musician who wholeheartedly believes in the transformative power of song. He currently calls Brevard, North Carolina, home but his trajectory, musical and otherwise, actually began out West.

“I grew up in Colorado and went to school in Durango,” Book said. “For lack of a better idea, I was a communications major. Back then, it seemed like a little bit of a fluffy choice, and I didn’t really have a master plan, but the skills I learned have really served me well in terms of what I do as a performer and what I do in my spare time.”

Book told the City Paper that there just happened to also be a great acoustic scene taking shape in southern Colorado during his younger years and that this is where he first “caught the Bluegrass bug” along with a few like-minded friends.

“I became more and more absorbed in that world until, eventually, I started a band with Anders Beck, who is in Greensky Bluegrass now; Andy Thorn, who joined Leftover Salmon; and John Stickley, who is best known for his work with the Biscuit Burners and the John Stickley Trio.”

In 2005, Book pivoted away from that group, dubbed the Broke Mountain Bluegrass Band, to join forces with the collective that would become a perennial favorite along the festival circuit, the Infamous Stringdusters.

This jam-friendly string ensemble features Book on bass, Andy Falco on guitar, Andy Hall on dobro, Chris Pandolfi on banjo and Jeremy Garrett on fiddle.

Although Stringdusters has been a major focal point for all of them these last 17 years, each of the members remains active outside of the band, and according to Book, that’s what keeps things exciting.

“It’s as compelling as ever to play together because we allow ourselves the freedom to scratch other musical itches when we are apart,” Book said. “When you have five guys who are all capable leaders in their own right, it could potentially be a situation where a band gets pulled in a lot of different directions trying to meet everyone’s needs.

But since we get to do lots of exploring on our own, it’s much easier to surrender to the whole and to what it means to be a Stringduster whenever we regroup.”

Since its inception, the Infamous Stringdusters has been relentlessly touring, evolving and gaining momentum with every subtle step along the way. However, like most other traveling musicians, Book and company were suddenly forced off the road during the initial outbreak of Covid-19 in 2020.

Not knowing exactly how much time-off was coming, Book said that he and his colleagues were determined to use it wisely.

“For a long while we had bounced around the idea of doing some tribute records but it wasn’t until the pandemic hit that we had enough time on our hands to work on one

such project honoring Bill Monroe. We were kind of surprised to later be nominated for a Grammy with that one. We weren’t really expecting that.”

At some point during that same peak pandemic period, it also occurred to Book that, given the band’s backlog of unrecorded tunes, it made a lot of sense to go ahead and piece together another album’s worth of original material while they were at it. The resulting LP, Toward the Fray, arrived to rave reviews in February. And the whole process seems to have reinvigorated everyone in the Stringdusters’ camp, who are all happy to be back on tour supporting both new releases.

“It’s feeling really good to be a Stringduster these days,” Book said. “It’s clear to me that we have so much potential and so much growth left in us.” That said, the road ahead looks different than it did in the early days of the group.

“The older I get the more I find that success lies in knowing that we are pursuing our musical truth, as it were, and simply going about making the best, most interesting music that we can. The less I am attached to metrics, as in how many people are listening and how many tickets we are selling, the happier I am.”

The Infamous Stringdusters play the Charleston Pour House lot stage at 6:30 p.m. on July 29. Tickets are available at charlestonpourhouse.com.

Applications open for Visiting Artist program The Gibbes Museum of Art has officially started accepting applications for its 2023 Visiting Artist program.

Hamilton continues to amaze audiences

The National Tour cast of Hamilton brings the mega musical to Charleston until July 24 and Jefferson are joyous. Peter Matthew Smith’s King George is a laugh riot. Josh Tower’s Burr brings new dimensions and style to the centerpiece character.

The Best of Broadway season is kicking off with the biggest and the best. Hamilton continues to convert new fans seven years after its debut, with no end in sight. A packed audience, spanning every demographic and age, all simmered with the pulse of a crowd doing its best not to sing along. Standing ovations were given for individual songs. All unsurprising, considering they were seeing what is, perhaps without much debate, simply the greatest American musical of all time.

Catch more shows

The rest of the season also includes Annie, Dear Evan Hansen, Aladdin, Jesus Christ Superstar and closes with The Book of Mormon.

Annie runs October 28-30. Based on the popular Little Orphan Annie comic strips, the musical follows the titular redhead as she navigates a new life with a new family.

The beloved Tony Award-winning musical features classic hits like “It’s the Hard Knock Life” and “Tomorrow.”

Dear Evan Hansen won the Tony Award for Best Musical at the 71st Tony Awards, and while the movie may have been a disappointment for many, the stage show has continued to play to impressed audiences for seven years. With the Broadway pro-

duction closing this fall, there’s even more reason to catch this show while it’s in town November 22-27.

Disney has an extensive track record of successful theatrical adaptations of their beloved films. Aladdin can stand alongside The Little Mermaid, Frozen and the awardwinning The Lion King as one of Disney’s animated masterpieces that have successfully made the transition to the Great White Way. Fans of Aladdin and the Genie will want to make sure they get tickets to the run at the PAC from February 22-26, 2023.

Jesus Christ Superstar, the acclaimed and controversial musical by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber, is celebrating its 50th anniversary. With a production out of London’s Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre, the show is staying relevant and evocative through cutting edge choreography and direction that secured this production the 2017 Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival. If you’ve been a fan of JCS anytime in the last fifty years, mark March 10-12, 2023 on your calendar so you can fall in love all over again.

From the creators of South Park, The Book of Mormon took Broadway by storm when it debuted, and wracked up nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical. The hilarious story of two missionaries trying to change the world continues to be a laugh riot, and has already played to Charleston audiences once before. If you missed it back in 2017, you’ve got another chance to catch it May 5-7, 2023.

Since Hamilton premiered Off-Broadway at the Public Theater on January 20, 2015, Lin-Manuel Miranda’s musical has become a juggernaut of the American theater. It later opened on Broadway, swept the Tony Awards, won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, toured the country and the world and has been made available to stream at home on Disney+. You have probably already seen Hamilton, listened to and memorized the soundtrack and have a go-to song from its iconic playlist for karaoke nights.

Now that Hamilton is opening the 20222023 Best of Broadway season at the North Charleston Performing Arts Center (PAC), should you go see it? Yes. Of course. Hamilton continues to amaze, as it did a packed house on Thursday night and undoubtedly will keep doing during every single performance of its run through July 24.

If you’ve only watched the musical on Disney’s streaming platform, you owe it to yourself to be in the room where it happens. There’s no comparison to live theater, and seeing this show live and in living color is the way it was meant to be seen. The staging is electric, the energy infectious.

The set and lighting design are award-winning for good reason.

And the performances are stellar. If you’re a Hamilton vet who has already seen the show on or off Broadway, you may still want to check out this most recent tour.

Hamilton already has a long list of stellar actors who have embodied these now-iconic roles, and this cast is no exception. It’s amazing to see fresh faces breathe new life into such fantastically written characters.

Edred Utomi’s Alexander Hamilton is sharp, naturalistic, energetic and manages to make Miranda’s lyrically exceptional songs actually sound like true hip-hop.

Paul Oakley Stovall’s George Washington is a revelation. He’s not working towards gravitas: his imposing stature, conversational delivery, and aged timber provide a Washington that is writ as large as the man’s legacy. And those are just some highlights of an outstanding cast. Zoe Jensen’s Eliza is wonderful. Stephanie Umoh’s Angelica is powerful. David Park’s Lafayette

Laurlyn comes out swinging with debut single “Atone” Up-and-coming Charleston pop artist Laurlyn has loved music since her early days as a student of classical piano in Colorado Springs, but she wasn’t always interested in the pop genre.

In fact, Laurlyn originally created altrock tunes, but felt she wasn’t hitting her stride. “I kind of always had the dream of putting out my own music, but wasn’t ever really happy with my songwriting and what I was coming up with,” she said.

It was after meeting pop-focused musicians at The Contemporary Music Center in Nashville during her last semester of college that Laurlyn grew intrigued by the genre. “I fell in love with pop music and more specifically indie pop music, and I think I kind of was able to marry my love for alt rock with my love for pop music, and that sparked my style.”

Laurlyn moved to Charleston in 2017 and decided to focus on incorporating music-making into her life. “The pandemic happened, and kind of makes you take stock, like, ‘Hey, this is something I need to do,’” she said. She then connected with local producer Matt Tuton from Johns Island studio The Lab. “He was able to take my vision and run,” she said.

Most of Laurlyn’s songs begin in front of her piano. “I really feel like [it] helps shape the direction of a song totally differently than it does from a guitar, and I think the emotions that I’m able to pull simply from sitting down and playing the piano really informs my writing,” she said.

Lyrics come last, a method she prefers so that she can properly pair vowel sounds and phrase shapes with the structure of the song. “They are mostly inspired from personal life experiences, sometimes inspired by people close to me’s life experiences or other people’s stories,” she said.

In March, Laurlyn released her debut single, “Atone,” along with her first music

Ashley Rose Stanol

“Atone” has the attitude of a pop song with the depth of a ballad video, shot in Albuquerque, New Mexico, by Toshi Jamang. “I originally wrote the song as kind of a response to what it feels like to work in customer facing roles,” she said. “I felt like I was constantly put in the position of needing to atone for sins that didn’t exist.”

While the piano makes up the bones of the track, Laurlyn worked with Tuton at The Lab to give it a pop edge. The result is a song that is pop in its beat and attitude with the depth of a ballad and a layer of retro quirk added by the synth.

Laurlyn’s lush, soulful vocals stand out on “Atone,” soaring through an addictive melody that came to her in a dream.

“I was fortunate enough that I could remember it when I woke up,” she said.
