Can you see the light? Nick Dittmeier can see it. The light, that is. The light bulb went off when he was a young boy, watching his peers performing in school plays. He caught the music bug. His music teacher — grandma — bought him a guitar, taught him some Jason Thomas, Editor chords, and the light morphed into a blazing fire. It burns white hot to this day, as the Jeffersonville native is set to release his second album, “Light of Day,” April 22. The 29-year-old has a strong following locally, even being nominated in the “Songwriter of the Year” category in 2013’s inaugural Louisville Music Awards. Dittmeier has opened for some pretty big acts, too, like Justin Townes Earle. Through it all, even surviving six years with honky tonk/punk band Slithering Beast “and making a lot of dumb mistakes” — hey, who doesn’t? — Dittmeier remains fiercely local.
And has a more mature sound. That’s SoIn. Inside, you’ll read about his practice space in Jeffersonville, how he’s worked with a New Albanybased video company to produce two videos — both shot locally — and why he thinks Southern Indiana is the perfect place to fine-tune his career. Southern Indiana is bubbling over with talent. You’ll notice a sidebar to Dittmeier’s story, highlighting a young trio called The Hart Strings comprising of Ted Hartog, Josh Druin and John Renfrow. Talk about some Southern Indiana-bred, organic folkrock. You’ll groove to guitars, banjos, violins and crystal-clear, soaring vocals in The Hart Strings’ “Good Conversation.” Oh, and none of them are yet 20 years old. Talent is everywhere in Southern Indiana on so many different scenes. You won’t even need a light to find it. — Jason Thomas is the editor of SoIn.

ACTING THE PART
Actor's Theatre announces Young Playwrights Festival; Floyd Central represented Artistic Director Les Waters and Managing Director Jennifer Bielstein announce the New Voices Young Playwrights Festival, a fully produced evening of new 10-minute plays written by students throughout the region and presented by Actors Education and the 2013-'14 Apprentice/Intern Company. Saide Martinez of Floyd Central High School will be represented with her play, “Piece by Piece.” The New Voices Young Playwrights Festival runs April 21-22 at 7 p.m. in Bingham Theatre at Actor's Theatre. Tickets are free and can be reserved by calling 502-5841205. Limit six tickets per household. “It is our responsibility as a leading arts organization to foster an environment in which young people can explore and create art,” Waters said. “The New Voices Young Playwrights Festival allows students to collaborate with theatre professionals and see their work come to life on our stage. Actors Theatre is so very proud to share these new voices and be involved in their artistic development.” This year’s festival showcases nine 10-minute plays written by local young playwrights. The evening will feature, amongst other things, a sensitive iPhone; an
out of control cabbage contest; a potentially dangerous study session; a small-town superhero; a snarky elven warrior; a high-stakes heart-to-heart on a tree limb; a town encased by an ancient wall; a space-obsessed girl with a unique view of the universe and a group of princesses in need of some serious therapy. The nine winning plays to be performed during the festival were chosen from more than 550 entries written through New Voices Playwriting Residencies and independently. The selected playwrights for this year’s festival represent seven schools in Jefferson County, Ky., and Floyd County. About Saide Martinez (”Piece by Piece” is directed by Jacob Sexton) Before New Voices, Martinez won a Young Author award for a book she wrote in elementary school and had a poem published in a book of student poetry in middle school. In her free time, she likes to help at her church’s soup kitchen and sing. She’s very interested in music, reading and baby-sitting. She is a sophomore in high school and wishes to join the Peace Corps after college. Her dreams also include teaching underprivileged children. [actorstheatre.org]

‘Light OF DAY’
homegrown rocker Nick Dittmeier keeps plugging away
L
by JASon thoMAS jason.thomas@newsandtribune.com
ike any musician, Nick Dittmeier needs a place to practice. His just happens to be the basement of his Jeffersonville home on Locust Street. As he was piecing together his practice space, Dittmeier paid a visit to the Remnant Carpet Outlet on Eastern Boulevard in Clarksville. He explained to the salesperson that he needed carpet to cover the ceiling, walls and windows for soundproofing. He was met with a puzzled look. “You’re trying to carpet the ceiling?” A musician only has so much patience. “Just don’t ask anymore questions,” Dittmeier said, “and give me the cheapest carpet you have.” A busy musician has only so much time, too. Dittmeier’s soulful “Americana-type music” blending sounds from several genres has caught fire locally as the homegrown rocker releases his second album while staying true to his Southern Indiana roots. “Light of Day” drops April 22, marking an important milestone for the Jeffersonville High School graduate who recorded the album with his own band rather than a patchwork set of musicians like on his first album, last year’s “Extra Better.” Needless to say, he’s been busy. “I needed a more permanent crew,” Dittmeier, 29, said of his sophomore effort. Dittmeier handles lead vocals and guitar; Alex Plamp is on bass guitar; Eric Baldwin is on drums; and Zane Hilton is on guitar to round out the group, which released a video for the title track “Light of Day” on YouTube two weeks ago. • WHO: Nick dittmeier The video was shot in an empty home • WHAT: “Light of day” release on Meigs Avenue in Jeffersonville by party New Albany-based Vaudeo Productions, • WHEN: 2 p.m. April 27 • Where: 502 Winery, 120 S. 10th St., which also shot the video for DittmeiLouisville er’s first video, “I Can Sing” — staged on the third floor of Jimmy’s Music • ON THE WEb: nickdittmeier.com Center in New Albany. • TWiTTER: @nickdittmeier Even after opening recently for bigger name acts like Hayes Carll and • AbOUT: “Light of day” can be purchased Justin Townes Earle, Dittmeier — who April 22 on iTunes, amazon.com, and was nominated as “Songwriter of the Guestroom Records, 1806 Frankfort Year” in the 2013 Louisville Music Ave., Louisville Awards — bleeds local.

“I never really thought about living anywhere else,” he said, looking the part of an indie musician with a scruffy beard, shoulder length hair, a flannel shirt, jeans and cowboy boots. “I can always just pack up and leave — we’re pretty centrally located here. You can hit a lot of cities within two and three hours.”
It was Dittmeier’s music teacher grandma who bought him a guitar and taught him chords that provided Dittmeier’s start in music. “It kind of came easy. It wasn’t a tough environment in which to get started,” he said. “I practiced a lot and kept working at it.” Dittmeier credits Jeff Sherman, director of jazz studies at Bellarmine University, for taking his guitar playing and music comprehension to the next level. “I really learned theory and the nittygritty, ins-and-outs of music the way it’s supposed to work,” Dittmeier said. Then it came time to prove his worth.
Dittmeier toiled for five years in the hon group Slithering Beast, where Dittmeier drank a lot and made a lot of dumb mist “Out of that I decided I wanted to make That led to “Extra Better” and the up Day.” Between records, Dittmeier refined h the tracks for “Light of Day” at DeadBird the mixing of Dave Chale, who also own tage music venue in Louisville. Chale called Dittmeier “a true and who’s hellbent on reaching his full p ing is an intimate act, often causing space out when their music is un scope and “stare at the tree in f completely forget the forest,” as C “While Nic the trees, his fo on what the fo whole,” Chale deserved con what he w well as a for the

before making the decision of whether to put it in the final product.”
Dittmeier’s sound could be compared to Little Feat, The Band and the lesser known yet equally powerful Wet Willie. Mix in some newer edgier roots music like the Drive by Truckers, and you have Dittmeier. “I just try to borrow things from different genres and make it cohesive in a lot of ways,” said Dittmeier, who’s equally adept at slide guitar as regular picking. “Light of Day” — all songs written by Dittmeier — is wrapped in familial themes told in the third person. “The ideas and stories are in that third person in the abstract and not literally about Nick,” said Dittmeier, alluding to a review of his first album in which a writer mistakenly thought a song about a funeral was about Dittmeier’s father — who is very much alive. “I tried to focus on the theme of trying to make the characters come to life inside those songs.” Dittmeier’s goal is to keep building a solid fan base and sell tickets to “have the ability to connect with people and get our music out and continue to have those opportunities,” he said. Some day he might even have a professional practice space and no need for carpet scraps. “I’ll keep with it. I feel like I’m doing something that’s meaningful to me, whether it’s small or intimate audiences, as long as they feel like they’re getting something out of this,” he said. “This definitely isn’t easy. “I definitely didn’t sign up for this with the thought it would be easy.”
Q: Describe your sound/inspiration A: our inspiration comes from the Avett brothers, Mumford & Sons and trampled by turtles. though our music might not always come off as “folk”, these are groups we look up to with their songwriting and raw energy. our sound often draws from folk influences, but is usually a little more “rock” than traditional folk. Q: How did you get into music? A: I began playing drums in sixth grade after seeing the movie “drumline.” I then started trying to learn my favorite songs at the piano, which led me to songwriting when I was 13. After drums and piano, I picked up anything I could find. I had tried my hand at solo projects until senior year, when I realized the best music I could make would be made with Josh and John. Q: What are your goals? A: our goals are to make a living doing the thing we love. We very much love performing music and would love to play shows for as long as we can to people who want to hear it. every day that is what we want to do, and every day we try to chase after that future. Q: What do you make of the local music scene? A: the local music scene is very welcoming once you prove yourself. louisville is a scene for bands that are a bit heavier than us, but we’ve been surprised at how enthusiastic people have been to help us. We don’t always play in typical “music venues,” so the support from coffeehouses and outdoor events has been much appreciated. — Jason Thomas

Clash of the Titans: Titanfall Review
One of the biggest video games in the first half of this year is “Titanfall,” an Xbox One title (also available on PC and Xbox 360) published by Electronic Arts. Created by some of the key members behind the blockbuster “Call of Duty” franchise, “Titanfall” merges twitch-based shooting between futuristic soldiers with towering mechanical giants, aptly known as Titans. The David-and-Goliath battles are at the heart of what’s fresh in “Titanfall.” The shooting mechanics will feel familiar to anyone who’s ever played a “Call of Duty” title in the past five years, but jumping into and controlling a lumbering mechanical beast (think “Transformers” or even “Pacific Rim”) is an exciting rush. Each player begins the standard match as a Pilot, an armored human, joined by five other people to face against six opposing users in an online matchup. Standing between the Pilot and evan the arrival of their Titan is a countdown Campbell timer, and players can speed up the process SoIn video by disposing of opposing Pilots, computergame reviewer controlled robotics and Titans. The one flaw that stands out with “Titanfall” is the campaign mode, which tries to shove a single-player narrative into an online multiplayer setting. The result is an easily ignored story that’s forgotten quickly, if even absorbed at all. But what’s important is the adrenaline-filled online matches with your buddies. There’s nothing quite like watching your Pilot hop on board a Titan, with the machine interface flickering on once inside. It’s moments like these — and more — that make “Titanfall” memorable. — Evan Campbell is a New Albany native who writes about video games for IGN.com and NF Magazine.

Q&A interview WITh
ACTOR J.R. STuart
(currently playing Rosco Dexter in Derby Dinner Playhouse’s “Singin’ in the Rain,” through April 18. [www.derbydinner.com]) Hometown/Current residence: Born in Westport, 1963; have resided in New Albany since 1999 What is your educational background? B.S. Theatre Performance, Ball State University, 1987 How did you get interested in acting? My parents took me to a high school performance of “Oliver!” and I was immediately hooked. What are your favorite types of roles? Character roles — full of spunk, personality, supporting the leads. Often function as comic support, have a great musical comedy number and leave them wanting more. Exceptions — Tevye in “Fiddler on the Roof” (greatest male musical comedy role that encompasses every range of emotion) and my one-man portrayals of President Truman (“Give ‘em Hell Harry!”) and Twain (“The Gospel According to Mark”). Bringing history and fascinating, great men to living, breathing life is extremely rewarding and vital to me. What do you enjoy about performing? Entertaining people — making them forget their troubles for a few hours, hopefully making them think a little too. The audience is a living,
breathing character in every production, and the relationship between actor and audience is invigorating and enthralling. The bond of theatre family (cast and crew) is unique and priceless. Our loyalties are fierce. What are your goals? Theatre exists to entertain, to hold a mirror up to humanity — reveal its follies and foibles, and works best when it lifts people up, compelling us to make the world a gentler, more loving place.
