Arts & Culture Editor Knoxville and music go hand in hand. Over the past decade, a rich variety of unique, Knoxville-based musical talent has burst onto the national scene, putting the Scruffy City on the map. Celebrating this homegrown success, the Beacon compiled a short list of some of this year’s standout local bands.
Cereus Bright ful melodies that accompany strong, lyrical stories. Cereus Bright was formed in 2011 in Knoxville and is a testament to the city’s belief in and support of genuine artistry. Although currently unsigned by a record label, the band released a five song EP “Happier Than Me” in November 2013 and are keeping a busy tour schedule for the remainder of this year.

Cereus Bright’s music offers both depth and easy listening, a rare but wonderful combination. The band takes its name from a nightblooming desert flower, the cereus—a symbol of one’s ability to blossom in the most desolate of places. The original duo, Tyler Anthony and Evan Ford, are advocates for what they believe to be classic folk music — simple yet beauti-
The Black Cadillacs Tennessee rock sound. In addition to becoming a local favorite, The Black Cadillacs now play back-to-back dates all across the Southeast, including recent appearances at Bonnaroo, Summerfest and Hangout Fest. With lead singer Will Horton’s raspy rock voice and the band’s ability to put on a far from lackluster show, The Black Cadillacs are one of Knoxville’s finest young bands.
If the music of The Black Lillies sounds familiar, it is because Cruz Contreras, a former member of the popular Knoxville country roots group Robinella and the CCstringband, is the founder and front man. Since their creation in 2009, The Black Lillies have found success both locally and nationally with their Appalachian Americana tunes. Recently, Rolling Stone Magazine named them one of the “Ten Artists You Need to Know.” Infusing country, rock, bluegrass and jazz, The Black Lillies produce a unique, Knoxville sound. Trisha Gene Brady’s haunting co-lead vocals mix seamlessly with Contreras’, setting The Black Lillies’ apart from other similar groups.

Naming The Rolling Stones, The Who, Queens of the Stone Age and The Brian Jonestown Massacre as their musical influences, The Black Cadillacs’ music is sultry and intriguing. In 2008, three Knoxville friends joined to form the blues-indie rock band. From there they added two more members, one from Nashville and one from Memphis, creating a unique, fresh
With their rhythmic drumbeats and soulful live shows, The Dirty Guv’nahs have quickly become one of the most popular bands to call Knoxville home. This year alone they have performed their American roots music at Bonnaroo and Wakarusa and opened for major artists such as Train and Zac Brown Band. Metro Pulse, Knoxville’s alternative weekly paper, has also named them the “Best Band in Knoxville” every year since 2008.
“The Dirty Guv’nahs don’t just play music; they capture the human experience through song,” according to Music Connection Magazine. Boasting four studio albums, and their latest album “Hearts on Fire” released this year, The Dirty Guv’nahs are seasoned, professional musicians. Their finesse mixed with an enthusiastic jam band sound makes The Dirty Guv’nahs a top local music pick.

Knoxville brewery serves up local libations Arts & Culture Editor
In a remote downtown alcove, behind a row of abandoned warehouses, sits a testament to Knoxville’s ingenuity. Saw Works Brewery, previously Marble City Brewery, is Knoxville’s only micro-brewery and has provided premium craft beer to Knoxville and 15 of its surrounding counties since May 2011. Located in an unassuming brick building on E. Depot Avenue, Saw Works is a small facility that produces some of Knoxville’s most popular beers, such as the Saw Works Brown and the Rocky Hop IPA. Prior to the arrival of its current owners, the historic factory building housed Wallace Saw Works, a sawsharpening company which, after nearly 50 years, closed in the late 1990s. Soon after Wallace vacated, new tenants arrived and established the New Knoxville Brewing Company, filling the warehouse with stainless steel, state-of-the-art brewing equipment. After a few years of production, however, the brewery proved unsuccessful and subsequently closed. Owners once again vacated the building, leaving every piece of brewing equipment behind. It is rumored that when the new owners, Marble City Brewery, arrived, full bottles of beer still remained on the bottling line. In late 2009, when cousins and Marble City Brewery co-founders Adam Palmer and Johnathan Borsodi heard of an abandoned brewery for sale in Knoxville, they made an offer and never looked back. “When it comes to the craft beer industry, you have to have two things: good beer and timing,” Palmer said. “Good timing is everything.” Almost immediately after Marble City’s inaugural beer release in 2011, however, Albuquerque brewer Marble Brewing Company sued Palmer and Borsodi for copyright infringement over their name. After an almost yearlong court battle, Palmer made the decision to change the name of the business to Saw Works Brewery, an
homage to the fading Wallace Saw Works logo that still brands the building’s rear wall. “I made the decision to start paying people other than attorneys,” Palmer said. “There were more important things to put our money towards.” Today, business at Saw Works is booming and quickly outgrowing their E. Depot Avenue location. Saw Works maintains contracts with The Casual Pint and Tupelo Honey franchises, creating and producing custom beers for both companies. With plans to expand and relocate, Palmer says his decision to start a business in Knoxville was a good one. “Knoxville is a great beer town and it is only going to get better,” Palmer said. Jeremy Walker, Eagle Distributing representative and beer lover, said Saw Works’ work ethic contributes to the company’s success. “It’s not nameless, it’s not faceless,” Walker said, “it’s true grassroots business.” When visiting the Saw Works Brewery, patrons have the opportunity to tour the facilities, learn about the brewing process, enjoy a fresh craft beer in The Mill tasting room and meet the friendly staff. As an added bonus for beer connoisseurs, new flavors from The Saw Works Rough Cut Series—specially brewed, one-keg experimental beer batches—are available exclusively at The Mill. Courtney Gleason, Saw Works’ marketing and merchandising manager, said her favorite part of the job is connecting with people who love Saw Works beer. “It’s really rewarding to meet people who are excited about Saw Works, whether it’s out in a bar or coming to the tasting room for the first time,” Gleason said. Andrew Riley, Saw Works brewer, tour guide and senior in civil engineering, said he loves working at Saw Works. “It’s great,” Riley said. “We are basically drunken engineers with a beer in one hand and a screwdriver in the other.” The Mill tasting room is open weekly from 4-8 p.m. Wednesday through Andrew Riley, a senior in civil engineering and Saw Works Brewery tour guide, explains the brewing Saturday with tours at 5 p.m. and 6 process during a tour on July 11. p.m. on Friday and Saturday evenings.

Fragile 15 buildings threaten Katrina Roberts
Editorial Production Artist (@KatrinaRoberts_) Before Knoxville was made of bricks and pavement, it was made of wood and railroads. Each year, Knox Heritage, a non-profit landmark preservation organization, releases a list called the “Fragile 15,” detailing some of the most endangered historic buildings in Knox County. By listing sites that are in danger of being destroyed, the group aims to find ways of preserving them. Kim Trent, executive director of Knox Heritage, oversees preservation efforts for the properties, and works with owners toward restoration and sustainability. “When you look at the entire picture of sustainability and you look at the amount of energy in the building, the materials in the building,” she said, “then what you use to bring in new materials to build a new building, it’s actually more efficient to reuse historic buildings.” These historic locations are nominated annually by the Knox Heritage Board of Directors and the general public to be part of the Fragile 15 list. Some buildings are eventually removed from the list due to restoration or demolition, but several still remain on the list each year in varying degrees of disrepair.
1.Fort Sanders Neighborhood
2.Eugenia Williams House Constructed in 1940 by John Franz Staub, Knoxville native and Eugenia Williams’s childhood friend, this house was built on 24 acres of land, complete with a luxury automatic garage door opener. In 1998 after Eugenia Williams’ death, it was willed to UT as a memorial to her father, a prominent Knoxville physician. Though the house has been the victim of vandalism and poor maintenance, it is still sturdy, and a UT committee has been formed to plan for the future of the building.
4.Isaac Anderson Cabin The year is 1863. Shots ring out and The Battle of Fort Sanders is underway. Now, unfortunately, Fort Sanders is known for different kinds of shots. Developed by wealthy residents in the early 20th century, the Fort has since been transformed into housing and apartment complexes for nearby UT students. Now the top-spot-holder on the list for 2014, several houses on Highland Avenue and White Avenue are threatened with destruction and are in need of immediate restoration.
3.Tennessee Supreme Court Building
Now sitting in a suburban backyard, the cabin was once the home of Isaac Anderson, founder of Maryville College. It was built in 1802, in addition to a second school cabin that has since been destroyed. Because it has been abandoned for an extended period of time, the structure has become plagued by rot and termites. In order to preserve the cabin, Trent said the only option is for it to be moved.
Knox County
5.Pryor Brown Garage In 1951, $4.7 million was appropriated by the state legislature for the court’s construction. Designed by local architects Baumann and Baumann, the building features East Tennessee marble and large glass walls. Recently, it was proposed for redevelopment, but the request was revoked.
Considered the first ramp-style garage in the Knoxville area, the Pryor Brown Garage was built in two sections, one in 1925 and another in 1929. Still in use today, it is considered to be the oldest functioning garage in the United States. Current owners plan to demolish the current building to make more space for a larger garage.
6.French Broad River Corridor
The French Broad was the main source of social and commercial interaction in Knox County by the mid-1780s. The river served as a prime location for homes, shops and trading. Because of its location and lack of urbanization in the area, it has maintained much of its structural integrity, though some buildings are deteriorating.
7.The Legg-England House Built as a tavern, inn and stagecoach stop, John Legg’s home on Rutledge Pike was popular in 1846. It is rumored that James K. Polk was once a resident before he became president. Trent said that it is “amazing” that there so many antebellum homes in Knox County that still exist, in particular those made of wood.

to collapse Knoxville history 9.Standard Knitting Mill
Initially built in Market Square, the business was sold in 1925 to owners who kept the name and iconic Sara Lee sign, but left Market Square for Chapman Highway. The building and sign are both landmarks of the Chapman Highway commute. The property is for sale with hopes that future owners will preserve its historic resonances.
In the 1930s, The Standard Knitting Mill on Washington Avenue earned Knoxville the title of “Underwear Capital of the World” by producing over one million undergarments in a week. Recently purchased by a private developer, plans to restore the industrial building are underway.
10.University of Tennessee

8.Kern’s Bakery Building
11.Magnolia Avenue Corridor
Emerging in 1855 with the construction of two railroads, this area was home to many workers and tradesmen. Specific properties on the list are Magnolia Avenue United Methodist Church and the Rabbit and Poultry Barn. Both are in need of repairs to maintain the integrity of the structures.
12.Historic School Buildings
It began on The Hill in 1826 and has now grown to be home to more than 27,000 students. Throughout the years, the architecture style has changed and now only four buildings remain that were constructed prior to 1900. The two on the list are Estabrook Hall and Melrose Hall. Trent said Knox Heritage has been meeting with officials to determine if there is a way of reusing and maintaining the buildings. “It’s about saving the history of the place,” Trent said, “but it’s also about sustainability because being able to reuse properties is a much more sustainable way to deal with growth in a university.”
13.Knoxville College Historic District
15.The Lloyd Branson House
Founded in 1875 as a Presbyterian missionary effort to promote education, Knoxville College was the first African American college in East Tennessee. With several condemned buildings on the property, the student population has since fallen to 20. Specific properties include McKee Hall, Wallace Hall, Elnathan Hall, McMillan Chapel, Giffen Memorial Gymnasium and President’s House.
14. The H.E. Christenberry House Built in 1924, this house was constructed for the Rose family, but was purchased in 1947 by Henry Christenberry, Jr. Until his death in 2005, Christenberry lived and worked at the house as a doctor on Church Avenue. The house is in danger of being demolished and the property redeveloped, and its fate is still unknown.
Lloyd Branson was a local artist known for his depictions of early East Tennessee history and Southern politicians. He was very influential in early art circles, lending his name to Branson Avenue on which his 1920 home was built. His funeral was held inside the house, which is now in the process of being purchased and rehabilitated by Knox Heritage.
Education has long played an important role in the development of Knox County. Specific schools threatened include South High School, Rule High School and Giffin School. South High School, built in 1937, was purchased in 2008 by Bahman Kasraei. The property has since been secured by the City of Knoxville because the structure was open to the elements and not being repaired.

Culinary program allows students to taste passion Victoria Brown
Staff Writer (@VBrown__20) UT is offering a new program that focuses on the basics of the culinary industry. The certificate-based program is full time and runs for 12 weeks. “This program is great for students that want to learn all aspects of the culinary arts without spending two to four years in a classroom,” Pam Quick, student recruiter for the culinary program, said. “Our program is hands-on, fast paced and covers the culinary arts. People that love to cook and want to sharpen their culinary skills are great students for this program.” Not only does the program develop skills for culinary enthusiasts, but it also helps prepare students for careers in sales, marketing and hotel and restaurant management. “Our students have the chance to show what they have learned and share their experience with friends and family,” Quick said. Tara Garland, administrative assistant for the culinary program and junior in hotel, restaurant and tourism management, said that while taking the course, students can expect to gain a lot of knowl-
edge, stories and experience from well-respected culinary professionals in the Knoxville area. “The class size helps with oneon-one learning,” Garland said. “Usually no more than 12 people are in each class. It’s definitely for those who are passionate about the culinary industry.” Garland said the program has about 15 or 16 different instructors and each contributes their own unique life experiences and stories to the students. Garland changed her major after she completed the culinary program. She said that it will give her the training and knowledge she needs to further her career in the field of restaurant management, and perhaps open her own restaurant one day. “I love event planning and management,” Garland said. “This program caters both to those who see more the business side of things, and control finance, or manage or also those who want to work with only culinary and food.” While the course does not count toward general class requirements, it fulfills the internship credit for HRT students. The course runs from 2 p.m. until 8 p.m. Mondays through Fridays. “I definitely recommend taking
it during the summer,” Garland said. “If you’re a UT student, that way it doesn’t conflict with classes, and you aren’t overwhelmed with work.” For students interested, the culinary course offers a variety of programs within one. The “Wine and Beer” program is aimed at those who are interested in furthering their knowledge of both international and domestic wines, as well as different types of beers. Cooking courses are also available for those who are looking to enhance their cooking skills, or just learn something new. The courses offer “Baking,” “Canning” and “Cooking and International Cuisine” cooking lessons. Each class includes a specific chef, or teacher, who is a specialist in the area of topic. The courses are also available in conjunction with Pellissippi State Community College classes. “It’s a great program,” Garland said. “Everybody that you work with is excited to be there and extremely friendly. There is no better place to get the networking and experiences. It teaches you how to be out there and be great at what you do.” Informational sessions for the upcoming courses take place on Aug. 15 and 19, with the courses beginning Sept. 8.

Campus statues create culture, skepticism Savannah Gilman Contributor
As any student could tell you, UT places high value on tradition. These traditions take many forms, but perhaps the most enduring are the campus fixtures that the school hopes communicate the individuality and spirit of the UT campus. The Torchbearer Foremost in this category is The Torchbearer, also known as The Volunteer Statue. The sculpture, designed by Yale School of Fine Arts student Theodore Andre Beck, was selected through a nationwide contest in 1931 that sought a design to capture “the spirit of University youth and its ideal of service.” The original sketch was of an older man dressed in Grecian robes. After lengthy consideration, the design was subsequently modified to look younger and portray no specific nationality, giving the design a timeless quality. The Torchbearer became the official symbol of the UT in 1932, but the statue was delayed from being built due to the Great Depression and World War II. A student campaign led to the casting and establishment of the nine-foot Volunteer in Circle Park on April 19, 1968. The Centaur from Volos If you continue down Volunteer Boulevard, past the Torchbearer, to the Jack E. Reese Galleria in Hodges Library, you will find another intriguing piece in the collection of University artifacts: The Centaur from Volos. For 20 years, the display of “The Centaur Excavation at Volos” has
led students to question their belief in the existence of centaurs. Exhibited in an elegantly constructed showcase are what appear to be the remains of a centaur excavated from an archaeological dig site in Volos, Greece. But are the dusty bones really those of a centaur? Unfortunately, no. “This display uses the conventions of scholarship to present a work of fiction as authentic,” said Beauvais Lyons, Ellen McClung Berry professor of art and advocate of the Centaur project. “The exhibit is a valuable object lesson on the importance of skepticism.” The centaur was originally composed by Bill Willers, an artist and professor of biology at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, from a combination of tea-stained pony bones and a deteriorating human skeleton. During the fixture’s formation in the early 1990s, then Dean of Libraries, Paula Kauffman, along with a host of other faculty were very supportive of the project. “The centaur underscores a key heuristic issue; that the experience of having a deeply held belief disconfirmed (as in the hoax dehoaxed) is critical to self-conscience epistemology and thus the educational process,” Lyons said. The library is an ideal setting for the centaur’s lesson in objectivity due to the fact that a work of “non-fiction” is not often immediately perceived as false. Lyons believes the “centaur” invites critical reflection as it demonstrates an intellectually stimulating juxtaposition. “Centaurs are part of Greek mythology,” Lyons said, “and
since so much of Western culture has Greek and Roman origins, the form is both familiar and totally bizarre.” The UT centaur is now mythic. Lyons said he is still waiting for a centaur to appear during the homecoming parade. “Memphis has a pyramid, Nashville has the Parthenon,” Lyons said, “but Knoxville has The Centaur Excavations at Volos.” The Whirlwind of Opportunity Arguably, the most modern campus fixture rests at the peak of Pedestrian Mall. The dynamic “Startling Whirlwind of Opportunity” statue was a private gift to the school from alumnus Wilton D. “Chick” Hill in 2009 as an accessory to UT’s Make Orange Green initiative. Designed by New York-based artist Alice Aycock, the 25-foot aluminum and glass sculpture was inspired by the bustling atmosphere of Pedestrian Mall. “The acquisition of knowledge is not a static series of steps but an incredibly dynamic, energetic and creative ricochet of information,” Aycock said in a statement. “Ideas are not at rest.” Though the piece works to both capture the essence of campus and accommodate UT’s sustainability initiative using lowenergy LED lighting, it has been met with a flurry of responses. “Personally, I’m not a huge fan of the aesthetics because, for it to be a ‘whirlwind of opportunity,’ it seems childish,” said Maggie Miller, graduate student in art education. “It doesn’t really fit the culture of our campus.”

The first college football game is Thursday, Aug. 28 at 6 p.m. featuring Texas A&M at South Carolina, and Temple at Vanderbilt at 9:15 p.m. The Vols will appear on Sunday, Aug. 31 at 7 p.m. for the home season opener against Utah State.
