Searching for the Mouth of the Columbia Coast Weekend Editor
THE ARTS
COAST WEEKEND EDITOR: REBECCA SEDLAK
NOTES FROM THE EDITOR
of Coast Weekend, you might have noticed we’ve been missing a regular feature the last few weeks: the Mouth of the Columbia restaurant review.
That’s because we’re currently searching for a new Mouth. This food critic column is one of our most popular features. In fact, I immediately heard from concerned readers the first day it didn’t appear. The inspiration for the Mouth of the Columbia was Richard Fencsak of Astoria. Co-owner of Bikes and Beyond, Fencsak had a keen interest in restaurant cuisine. In the 1990s, he approached The Daily Astorian Editor and Publisher Steve Forrester with the concept of doing a weekly column of restaurant criticism in the thennew Coast Weekend. For more than a decade, Fencsak reviewed restauUDQWV LQ &ODWVRS DQG 3DFL¿F counties, and he sometimes ranged farther down the
coast into Tillamook County. Fencsak was especially conscious of the standards he was setting. He gave the top rating only once to The Depot of Seaview, Washington. “Rich had a very rigorous mind,” says Forrester. “He cared enormously about the quality of our restaurants, and I believe his attention helped build an audience of diners for this great range of cuisine that we may now enjoy.” Fencsak died in 2008, and since then the Mouth of the
Columbia position has been held by three other people. We kept the name of the column because it conveys eating, communicating and our geographical location in a short and sweet byline. The Mouth dines and writes anonymously to guarantee fair treatment and write honest reviews. In choosing a new columnist, it’s important to us to find a good fit for the Mouth position. We need someone who knows about food, can write well, meet a weekly deadline and is enthusiastic. In the next few weeks while we’re on the search, Coast Weekend’s weekly dining column will feature contributions from various writers, recipes and seasonal food tips. If you think you have

The tankers on the Columbia River are transformed from mysterious ships to poetry with “The Ship Report.”
Story by MATT LOVE
‘The Ship Report’
W
What would happen to our country if every person began their day listening to 10 minutes of mellifluous poetry of the sea as opposed to, say, listening to polarizing talk radio, sports news or some other banality of American culture? Believe me, the benefits to the United States would accrue so quickly that within a matter of months, we might not recognize it. The good people of Astoria and its environs have this unique opportunity. As matter of fact, the whole country and world do — courtesy of a program broadcast on Astoria’s public radio station and also available as a podcast at www.shipreport.net Every weekday morning at approximately 8:45 a.m. (longer segments air Tuesday through Thursday) KMUN 91.9 Coast Community Radio broadcasts poetry of the sea in the form of a program called “The Ship Report.” Joanne Rideout is the poet of “The Ship Report.” Rideout, who produces and presents the show out of her home independent of her duties as KMUN station manager, launched “The Ship Report” in 2004 because she was “fascinated by the ships going by.” She was working at KMUN as the news reporter then and heard Thron Riggs, a classical programmer at the station who also happened to be a bar pilot, talk about ships on his show. It makes for wonderful poetic justice that a Columbia River bar pilot with a passion for classical music helped inspired a unique outlet for poetry of the sea. I don’t think there’s anything quite like this broadcast blend of commerce and literature anywhere else in the world. I almost never miss this show, whether live in the morning with coffee or as podcast later with tea. Something about listening to it both calms and informs me. Coast Community Radio describes “The Ship Report” as, “The weekday scoop on commercial Columbia River traffic and related nautical lore.” It is so much more than that. It is an audio window into Oregon’s relationship to the global economy, what is flowing in, what is flowing out. If I were teach-

ing economics at the high school or college level, I’d require my students to listen to every show. If I were teaching poetry at the high school or college level, I’d require my students to listen to every show. Wait! I do teach poetry to high school students in Astoria and I can assure you they’ll hear “The Ship Report,” discover its poetry and the measured tones of Joanne Rideout’s perfect voice for reciting poetry when she doesn’t even know she is reciting poetry, which is the best way to recite poetry. Rideout narrates some wonderful little stories of the ships, their origins, destinations, contents, schedules. functions, peculiarities, and the poetry always begins with the ships’ names:
I don’t think there’s anything quite like this broadcast blend of commerce and literature anywhere else in the world.

From there, the poetry sails to the ships’ cargoes: Copper concentrate Coiled steel Crude oil Hondas, Toyotas, Subarus Japanese steel Wheat, soy, corn Gypsum Potash Soda ash Let me conclude with the unlikely poetry mined from soda ash and potash, two crystals mined from the North American heartlands that used to roll on in perpetuity as antediluvian oceans. I didn’t know what potash and soda ash were before listening to “The Ship Report”; I’d actually never heard anyone utter these words in conversation. Time and time again, Rideout announced soda ash and potash flowing down the Columbia and out to Asia to manufacture fertilizer, glass, sherbet powder, toothpaste and the taste and texture of ramen noodles. They’re shipping the old ocean across the new ocean to ship back across the new ocean to sell something made from the old ocean. That is the very definition of poetry, and Joanne Rideout’s “The Ship Report” is the poet of that poem and many, many more. Tune in.

Art & politics
R
Cannon Beach mayor-elect Sam Steidel discusses the arts
Running unopposed, Sam Steidel was elected mayor of Cannon Beach Nov. 4. Aside form his civic duties, Steidel, who previously held a position on the Cannon Beach City Council, helps run Steidel’s Art gallery, which sells primarily works created by his father, William, as well as a few pieces of his own. Coast Weekend spoke to the incoming mayor about art, politics and where the two intersect. The interview has been edited and condensed. Coast Weekend: So you don’t think that politics and art cross over? Sam Steidel: Oh, actually I do. (Laughs) It’s one of those things that maybe you’d rather that they don’t. What makes you say that? I don’t know. Politics tends to be a decision-making process — combining a bunch of people and having a discussion. Whereas art is a creative process — but it’s more flexible. The goals are different. I think, in art, it’s the action of doing — more than the results. I think that the mind of an artist brings a different perspective to the table in politics. That’s a different topic. That’s: How can the creative mind affect politics? That’s very important. If you can’t have creativity in the process, everybody is going to butt heads and not get anywhere. Especially in Cannon Beach, the fact that we have such a good Design Review Board is because artists pretty much came up with the idea that we want to maintain an aesthetic here in town. Andrea Mace at the Cannon Beach Arts Associ-
ation said something to me recently, that she felt like there were a lot more artists in Cannon Beach 20 or 30 years ago. Is that something you would agree with? Yeah, I would say so. I don’t know for sure. There was a sensation that there were more artists. That brought galleries. (Laughs) Now we have a lot of galleries in town. This is a two-part question: What is the most important thing you’d want to cultivate to make Cannon Beach more of an arts town, and what’s the greatest threat to that? Actually they are they same thing. It’s the design and the aesthetic of the town. I think that’s what City Hall can do the best — maintain the character of Cannon Beach. It has evolved into a pretty unique spot, but it’s also gotten very expensive to live here, and all that other kind of stuff. But that comes from what happened in the ’60s when Cannon Beach grew into a resort community. It always has been a resort community. One of the first things that ever happened here was a tent campground for people coming to the beach — besides being a logging area at one point. The fact that it’s gotten to be such a high-end — I would say high-end — kind of resort community makes it hard for artists. But thinking of that, where could it have gone? Could it have been another Seaside with carnival rides and cinder block hotels all over the place? At least we’re trying our best to keep that aesthetic. So what would be an actual policy step? There’s a couple. One of the things that we’re really trying to do is find better housing. Work force housing Sam Steidel, mayor-elect of Cannon Beach, helps run Steidel’s Art and Custom Framing. for the young folks who want to come here and be. They might be able to work in a restaurant and be an artist if we had housing that was reasonable. Tell me about your own art history. You went to the University of Oregon? I did printmaking. I did theater design, primarily backstage stuff. How much does art — the practice of art — consume your life? Not that much — just because I’m involved with running the business and keeping an elderly gentlemen going, in most cases. And keeping the business clean and functioning, plus helping with City Hall and VISUAL ARTS • LITERATURE • THEATER • MUSIC & MORE other things. So the framing comes in, and this is an offshoot of framing, because I have all these scraps Story and photos by ANDREW TONRY leftover. (Laughs)
How can the creative mind affect politics? That’s very important. If you can’t have creativity in the process, everybody is going to butt heads and not get anywhere.

The record speaks to the challenges of existence with a rip-roaring exclamation that every ounce of humanity matters, and no voice should go ignored. It’s political; it’s daring and dreamy; it’s the place where rock and folk meet to dance, smile and raise a frothy brew in celebration.
The group’s music was featured in fall 2012 on PBS’s “Roadtrip Nation.� Moreover, Science! was awarded the 2013 Best New Record and 2012 Best New Band awards by Olympia-area entertainment newspaper Weekly Volcano.

SEAVIEW, Wash. — Portland-based band Quiet Life will perform at 8 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 22 at the Sou’Wester Lodge, located at 3728 J Place. This Americana band, comprised of Sean W. Spellman, Ryan Spellman, Thor Robert Jensen and Philippe Bronchtein, released its new EP, “Housebroken Man,” in August. The record features Jim James and Cary Ann Hearst, of the Portland duo Shovels & Rope. Quiet Life turned countless hours on the road into a source of inspiration for “Housebroken Man.” Pieced together from sessions at different studios, the EP plays like a well-worn musical road atlas, with each song recorded in a different atmosphere and location — from Portland to New England to South Carolina

noun 1. any various edible, bivalve mollusks of the family Ostreidae that bed in shallow marine water and are characterized by having a rough, irregular-shaped shell closed with a single muscle. 2. an edible bit of dark muscle that resembles the shucked mollusk and is located on either side of the backbone of a whole fowl 3. Oysterville, Washington: An unincorporated community in Pacific County, Washington,
located on Willapa Bay and first founded in 1841 Origin: 1321. Enters Middle English borrowed from the Old French, oistre, from the Latin, ostrea, originating with the Greek, óstreon, which referred to the mollusk and was related to both óstrakon, meaning“hard shell,”and ostéon, meaning“bone.” “Not everyone would have considered the oysters at the Occidental to be a celestial dish. Like all fresh oysters in San Francisco at the time, the Occidental’s were Olympias, the trueWest Coast natives.” “In [Mark] Twain’s day, some Olys were harvested in San Francisco Bay. But even then, before silt from hydraulic gold mining in the Sierras sluiced down into the bay to bury and destroy the vast majority of wild oyster beds, most Olys came from the far more productive tidelands of Shoalwater Bay. —Andrew Beahrs, “The Decades-Long Comeback of Mark Twain’s Favorite Food,” Smithsonian Magazine, June 2012

Five Minutes With ... Anne-Marie Sanderson Q&A by RYAN HUME Get to know singer-songwriter Anne-Marie Sanderson, who will hold court at the Adrift Hotel’s Pickled Fish Monday, Nov. 24 through Wednesday, Nov. 26. Her music can be purchased or streamed at annemariesanderson.com You are a British-born songwriter, having spent some time on the London folk scene before seeing the continent. When skipping across the pond, you passed the Mississippi River on your way west. What made Oregon a desirable place to settle in creatively? And, maybe most importantly: coffee or tea? Portland is appealing to me as a smallish city surrounded by spectacular natural landscapes. There’s an appreciation of the environment here that’s missing in a lot of places — that’s important to me. The relaxed pace of life allows time for creativity, and the climate definitely helps — rainy days are perfect for songwriting. I’m a committed tea drinker, but I won’t often say no to coffee with brunch. You’ve played on the coast quite a bit recently. I’ve also noticed a lot of sea imagery in your lyrics — as in 2012’s “Kane Cunningham” and “Follow You,” the opening track on your 2013 EP “Eloquence.” How does the ocean inspire you as an artist? I grew up in a village in the northwest of England, in a house that overlooks the Irish Sea. We went on lots of windy and rainy walks on the beach and cliffs, so I feel quite at home by the ocean, especially in the off-season! I also find that the ocean has quite a grounding effect. It
gives a sense of place, which is perhaps paradoxical, since it’s always in motion, but at the edge of the land, you know where you are. Your voice seems to soar above, creep below, or wander through your well-plucked guitar lines, like a complimentary but solely independent entity. As a songwriter, what comes first: the music or the lyrics? Often I’ll have a line or two that might pop into my head whilst riding my bike or doing something mundane, which might grow into a song later, when I spend some time with it and coax it into
being. Guitar parts tend to come more easily; sometimes I’ll come up with a handful all in one sitting, so recording them for reference is handy. Earlier this year I set myself the challenge of writing and recording one song a week, and sharing the recordings online. I managed for 13 weeks before things got too hectic with tour booking and such, but it was good to get into a very focused writing phase, and some of the songs will definitely be appearing as more polished recordings on future releases. Folk music has come a long way since its “revival” in the early 1960s. What does it mean to be a folk musician in the 21st century? For you, is folk more social or personal? Extroverted or introspective? How so? Folk music is a tricky subject. I don’t really consider my music to be folk music, but I do use that label with other descriptors, like chamber-folk or art-
folk, since nothing exists in a vacuum. Coming from a classical music background, it almost seems a little disingenuous to talk about being a folk musician, but my favorite parts of the classical canon are the ones where composers started to incorporate folk songs. As far as my music goes, I would say it’s quite personal and introspective, but you could definitely find wider social meaning in certain songs. It has to be somewhat extroverted to ever be heard. There are a lot of layers. What’s next? I have a few more shows this year, and then early next year I will be releasing a new EP, “Shadows & Sparks.” It’s the first record that I’ve made in a proper studio (previous recordings have been a mix of home-studio and studio-studio). It really makes a difference, and I can’t wait to share it. I’m hoping to get out on the road a lot more next year, too. I’m looking forward to that.
