Welcome!It is with fond devotion that we bring you the 27th annual Sweet Pea Festival of the Arts. This year’s festival starts on Saturday, July 31st with the Rock of Ages Sweet Pea Ball, so be ready to boogie with the sounds of the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. Then continue with us as we enjoy a week of events such as Chalk on the Walk, The Bite, juried Art Show, Parade and don’t forget the Sweet Pea Flower show. As you sit back and relax, we hope you enjoy the people, feel the moment and revel in the camaraderie of this very special weekend at Lindley Park. The dedicated Board of Direc-tors has strived to bring you the best festival yet. Children’s art projects, dance, theatrical performances and great food are a treat to the senses. We have invited local, regional and national talent for your visual and hearing plea-sure. So enjoy the festival with your family, friends and neighbors as our mission continues to cultivate and support the arts in Bozeman. Each year the Sweet Pea Festival is made pos-sible with hard work from thousands of volun-teers starting with the Board of Directors and growing as the year progresses to culminate in the wonderful festival. In addition to the volunteers, local businesses and organiza-tions provide us with a variety of goods and services. We are always delighted in granting any net proceeds from the festival to organiza-tions in the community for the support of the arts. As in the past, a portion of these funds will also be allocated for Lindley Park improve-ments so that we may continue to have such a picturesque place to celebrate! Please stop by festival headquarters to say hello and thank our devoted volunteers. If you have never volunteered, consider giving it a try next year. Without all the enthusiastic volun-teers it would be virtually impossible to have the Sweet Pea Festival. Gail D. Huls, PresidentSweet Pea Festival of the Arts

Music Headliners The Following Performances are held in The Bowl

Hal Ketchum Friday, 8 pmHal Ketchum was born in New York and introduced to music as a child by his musical parents. He made his way to Texas in the early eight-ies where he made his mark with future pals Lyle Lovett, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Willie Nelson, and Asleep at the Wheel, among others.

Hal landed his record deal with Curb Records in Los Angeles in the early 90’s and his first single off his first record for Curb, “Small Town Saturday Night,” went straight to number one, scoring Hal his first Gold record. Since then Ketchum has had 15 top ten hits, including “Past the Point of Rescue,” countless songwriting awards, and has been inducted into the Grand Ole Opry. USA Today is quoted as saying, “Ketchum has the most effervescent voice in country music today.”

Hal is currently in the studio and a new album will be out this year. In addition to working in the recording studio, Hal had a very successful gallery opening with his original paintings at the Pena Gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico, this past December. He and his wife Gina have just finished their first children’s picture book due out later this year.

Children of the Revolution Led by Vassili and Eric Jaeger and joined by nearly a dozen bandmates, Children of the Revolution blend sev-eral genres, seeking to create a com-mingled whole. The Seattle-based ensemble mixes flamenco, Greek, Middle Eastern, and Native American influences into sound and dance.

The Reeltime Travelers Saturday, 6:30 pmThe Reeltime Travelers play Old-Time Reeltime Americana music, rooted in the pre-record string bands of Southern Appalachia and drawing from that deep tradition to create new songs and sounds. Their shows are high-energy mixes of traditional, fiddle-driven dance tunes, mountain harmonies,

With its combination of driving rhythms and soulful vocals, Rose City Kings have become known for their well-crafted songs and rollicking crowd-pleasing performances. This cool Portland-based blues band was recently awarded “Best New Act” by the Cascade Blues As-sociation. The band members are Dan Berkery, Ron Camacho, Roger Espinor, Joe Powers and Jeff Simonson.

Lisa Parish 2004 Sweet Pea Poster Winner Lisa Parish is a wife, mother of two sons and a professional designer in Bozeman. The six years designing for Wild West Shirt Company and various freelance jobs have allowed her to remain an active part of local art and culture. After four previous Sweet Pea poster entries, Lisa is excited to be recognized for this year’s efforts. Lisa is a Montana native and graduate of Bozeman Senior High School. She took an eight year absence from Montana - to earn a degree, with High Honors, from The Art Institute of Seattle and to pursue a career in graphics – which made her really appreciate the sights, sounds and personalities of home. Lisa’s greatest inspiration for her artwork is her love of family, friends, co-workers and ‘tater pigs.

She will be signing posters at the Merchandise tent from 1 - 3 pm Saturday.

View all poster contest entries at a special showing in the Main Street First Security Bank front window, August 2nd through 8th. Prints of the Sweet Pea poster will be available as long as supplies last.

Saturday, 3 pm

You hear Los Mocosos and you think Los Mocosos means good old barrio-style rock. Well, think again – not only are they great barrio rock, they wail on reggae and funk and rap. Los Mocosos have been called “a triumph of Latino-ska-funk-rock” - it may sound crazy but it’s true.

That’s Los Mocosos. If America still prides itself on being a melting pot, then this just might be the ulti-mate American band. Born in San Francisco’s Mission District, Los Mocosos comes from the tradition that brought us Santana, Malo, and War – classic bands that crossed cultural borders as well as musical ones, and whose lyrics had something to say beyond the shaking of one’s booty.

The name Los Mocosos has proven difficult to translate. For polite company, at least, the band offers the translation “the mischievous kids.” The group spells out its mission statement – “we’re ready to rock the house.” Los Mocosos is a reflection of an increasingly mul-tilingual, multiracial America. It’s an America that Los Mocosos have seen a lot of; they’ve toured with Los Lobos and played Washingon’s Kennedy Center and New York’s Central Park. They received a San Francisco Wammy Award (Best International Band) and a California Music Award (Outstanding Latin Album). And just before recording “American Us”, they toured with Santana.

original banjo and fiddle tunes, and new songs with ties to the Old-Time tradition. Traveling the country, keeping old tunes alive and expanding the canon of Old-Time songs, the Reeltime Travelers show a reverence for tradition while creating their own Old-Time Reeltime Americana music. They were recently featured on the critically acclaimed soundtrack to the movie Cold Mountain. “The Reeltime Travelers have it all. They can play, they can sing, they write songs with a traditional sound… and they know the history of the music. It’s great to see old-time music being carried on by such a talented and enthusiastic group.” – David Holt

“The Reeltime Travelers are part of a remarkable renaissance in American roots music.” - Marin Independent

“The Reeltime Travelers are transporting a timeless old-time sound to 21st century audiences.” – No Depression Magazine

Family Highlights

Sweet Pea audiences will be able to savor a vivid feast of Hawaiian arts and culture, built around the centerpiece of hula, the traditional dance form of the Islands. The Academy of Hawaiian Arts nurtures and transmits all aspects of Hawaiiana, but their central focus is on hula. Mark Keali’i Ko’omalu, AHA founder and kumu hula, or master dancer and teacher, composed and performed two of the songs on the soundtrack of the Disney animated film “Lilo and Stitch.” AHA dancers, performing one of his choreographies, were filmed as the models for the animated dancers in the film. Come and enjoy the potent rhythms and fluid beauty of this gor-geous ancient dance form.

Diane Ferlatte accompanied by Erik PearsonSaturday 2 pm Sunday 11 & 1 pmDiane Ferlatte is at the forefront of the multicultural renaissance of the oral tradition as she augments inventive stagecraft with the actor´s skill at expression, gesture, and intense emotion, to create mul-tiple characters for each story. Embracing her role as a traditional preservor of folk history, culture, and values, she weaves tales from many cultures, while many of her stories have African, Southern, and African-American roots. In her performances, the multi-tal-ented Ferlatte sings, signs (American Sign Language), uses percussive instruments, and is frequently accompanied by Erik Pearson on banjo and guitar. With a repertoire of hundreds of stories and songs, she tells folk-tales, fables, and legends-historical, contemporary, and personal stories for all ages.“Her tales never fail to turn heads”- Miami Herald

Dance HighlightsSweet Pea audiences will enjoy a kaleidoscope of dance performance and participation from the four corners of the world. Taekwondo Westwill demonstrate and teach their particular form of Korean martial arts. The Martial Arts Center will teach the Japanese martial art called aikido.The Bozeman Folklore Society, with Band ‘o Possum, will teach contra dance in the Hollow. Duende will offer a red hot performance of tango and flamenco, featuring Tango artist Marco Bonasco. Rhythms Drum & Dance Ensemble will once again delight lovers of African dance with both performance and workshop. Lauren Coleman will offer both teaching and performance of ballroom dance. Nancy Ruby will teach yoga Sunday morning. The Caravan of Dreams World Dance Troupe will take audiences on a fantasy journey punctuated with Middle Eastern and African dance. Laser Track Meat creates an exciting mix of modern and break dance.

Sweet Pea offers young artists-in-the-making opportunities in the per-forming arts as well as the visual arts. Young dancers from The Dance Center, Montana Ballet, and One Step Ahead will knock out Sweet Pea

audiences with performance in all genres from tap to modern dance to bal-let. The Yellowstone Ballet Company will delight “youngsters” of all ages with “Peter and the Wolf.”

There’s something for everyone in this year’s Sweet Pea theatrical offerings! Opening the festival, Montana Shake-speare in the Parks presents the bitter-sweet tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, a play of timeless appeal that has been called “a kind of hymn to the omnipotence of love”. On Sunday evening, SIP will send us out laughing with the sharp-witted Moliere comedy “Tartuffe”, in which a rich man, Orgon, is deceived by a fraudulently pious con-artist who wreaks havoc among his family circle. The family’s attempts to unmask Tartuffe’s hypocricy to Orgon reach heights of farcical hysteria that are not to be missed!

We are delighted to welcome The Greg and Greg Show to the Cypress stage! Nationally known performers Greg Keeler and Greg Owens conspire to en-tertain with story, song, and satire. Also Saturday, the Kaleidoscope Players will transport all ages to an adventure “By the Sea”. Saturday afternoon’s full length play will be “On Golden Pond”, performed by the Bridger Moun-tain Theatre Festival ˜ a warm-hearted and hopeful comedy about growing old (and growing young) gracefully.

On Sunday, Equinox Theatre Company will regale us with a hilariously “abridged” version of “Hamlet”, drawn from “The Complete Works of Shakespeare, Abridged”. Gypsy Cab Players will reach new heights of silli-ness with “Son of Folk Tales”. Rounding out the Festival will be on-the-spot improvisational comedy from the ever- popular Spontaneous Combustibles. We are also pleased to again have the opportunity to showcase the upcom-ing generation of actors, personified this year by Kaleidoscope Camp. See you at the Stages!

Proposed Park PavilionStop by the headquarters tent during the festival and view the pavilion project that is proposed to be built in Lindley Park next spring. A model and schematic drawings will be on display. The pavilion would be sited where the current HQ tent is raised each year. The structure will be designed to offer accessible shelter for picnics and gatherings throughout the year, and each August will be converted for use as the nerve center for the Festival. The Sweet Pea Board of Directors is spearheading the effort and will be soliciting the support of the community in the coming months to assist with building this unique park asset. If you are interested in participating (labor, materials and/or funding), please contact the Sweet Pea Office at 586-4003.

Church in the Park“The Gospel Jubilators”

Sunday 9:30 am - The Bowl

Bring your friends and neighbors because you will not want to miss the pure Jubilee vocal stylings of “The Gospel Jubilators”! Kicking

off our third day of the festival, “The Gospel Ju-bilators” will be performing in The Bowl at our traditional Sunday (Church) service. What a rare opportunity to hear live a style of music that is virtually non-existent in our area!

Jubilee style (of a cappella black gospel quar-tets in the late 1800’s early 1900’s) is a little spiritual, a little gospel, and a little barbershop harmony, pulled together with a tight vocal blend and a hand-clapping rhythm. The six “Jubilators” come from North Carolina and are from 52 to 83 years young! Come join them and celebrate “old-time Gospel”. The “Jubilators” have dedicated themselves to keeping alive the style of singing and harmoniz-ing on traditional spirituals and gospel pieces popularized by such early groups as the Golden Gate Jubilee Singers. This is true Americana, deeply rooted in the joy of living in the Land of the Free!

The Bite of BozemanSweet Pea is once again excited to present the Bite of Bozeman. Join us on Main Street Wednesday, August 4th at 6 pm when friends, family and visitors mingle in a casual atmosphere while enjoying a wonderful vari-ety of cuisine from the area’s finest restau-rants and vendors. Come out and play while you fill your stomach and tap your toes to the beat of the music on Main Street. We will see you there!
