SUMMARY:The Get Right Band | Sails Original Music Series
DESCRIPTION:The City of Hickory’s 2026 Sails Original Music Series kicks off with The Get Right Band at 7 p.m. on Friday\, May 1\, at Union Square in downtown Hickory.\n\nTHE GET RIGHT BANDwww.thegetrightband.comwww.facebook.com/thegetrightbandTwitter and Instagram: @thegetrightband\n\n–ABOUT THE ARTIST–The Get Right Band is a psychedelic indie rock power trio committed to relentlessly following their muses to honest self-expression\, to whatever excites them and pushes them into unexplored territory\, and to capturing some version of truth. American Songwriter writes that the Asheville\, NC based group “filters 60s/70s psychedelia and 90s alternative rock through a modern lens – as if Led Zeppelin\, Pink Floyd\, and Nirvana co-wrote an album produced by Danger Mouse and Dan Auerbach.”\nThe Get Right Band formed in 2011\, built around the musical brotherhood that guitarist/singer/songwriter Silas Durocher and bassist Jesse Gentry have formed playing music together since middle school. Durocher\, who is a trained composer and has been commissioned to write for symphonies and chamber groups\, has guitar chops that can soothe or rage\, with a charismatic swagger as frontman and singer. Gentry’s virtuosic bass playing “catapults from elastic to nasty” (The Mountain Xpress). Completing the team is drummer extraordinaire Jaze Uries\, who is also a singer\, songwriter\, producer\, photographer\, and DJ\, and keys legend Chuck Lichtenberger\, whose incredible playing has been a staple of the Asheville music scene for years. GRB has defined their sound through constant evolution\, building to the hook-driven\, synth-heavy pop/rock/psych band they are today. The Huffington Post writes\, “their songs are infectious and take you immediately to a place. The lyrics are smart and bear weight.”\n\n–ABOUT THE SAILS ORIGINAL MUSIC SERIES–Started in 2012\, the City of Hickory’s Sails Original Music Series showcases well-crafted\, live music by bringing original music artists to The Sails on the Square. Original music is defined as music that is written or composed by the artist who performs it.For more information about the Sails Original Music Series\, please visit www.HickoryNC.gov/SailsMusic and follow the Sails Original Music Series Facebook page\, www.facebook.com/SailsMusic.\n\n–SPONSORS–The Sails Original Music Series presents excellent musical entertainment from national and international touring acts with the support of numerous sponsors. Thanks to presenting sponsor Protection Products\, Inc.\, and supporting sponsors Bob Sinclair Music\, Larry’s Music & Sound\, Pfahlert Creative Labs\, Olde Hickory Brewery\, and Crowne Plaza for supporting the series.\n\n–ABOUT THE VENUE–The Sails on the Square are located in the heart of downtown Hickory on Union Square. In addition to the seating available at Union Square\, audience members are encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs or blankets.

SUMMARY:Variations of Transformation (A piano concert of new music!)
DESCRIPTION:If you love classical piano music\, you will love this concert! \nHeather Niemi Savage and Paul Pulsipher are performing their own original solo works along with a duet by Christopher Siu and the feature piece\, Variations of Transformation\, that they co-composed during the summer of 2025. \nClassical music is not just a thing of the past. Is still being written! Come be a part of it! \nAbout Heather and Paul: \nHeather Niemi Savage finds herself in liminal spaces\, exploring the intersection of divergences. Deeply introspective\, she is inspired by literature\, faith\, and the natural world and draws on her broad experience in classical\, jazz\, musical theater\, sacred and world music. Her stylistically eclectic work invites performers and audiences alike to wonder and transcend the ordinary\, providing emotional release and a transformed perspective. Originally from New England and currently based in North Carolina\, her work has been performed throughout the United States by ensembles such as the Arkansas Philharmonic\, South Bend Symphony\, Argus String Quartet\, North-South Consonance\, Boston New Music Initiative\, and members of the Raleigh Symphony. Her work has been presented at the International Festival of Music by Women\, Impulse New Music Festival\, national conference of the Society of Composers\, Inc\, UNK New Music Festival\, and various All-State Festivals. Heather has placed in the top three in several national and international competitions\, including the 2020 American Prize Composition Competition (pops/light music division)\, the 2020 Arcady Art Song Competition\, the 2021 Cantus Ensemble Competition\, and the Huntsville Master Chorale 2023 Composition Competition\, and the Reno Pops Orchestra 2024 Composers Showcase. Heather graduated from Appalachian State University with a MM in music composition\, where she was a Tui St. George Tucker Fellow\, and is now an adjunct professor. As a pianist\, Heather performs regularly with choral and chamber ensembles and in intimate solo concerts. Outside of music\, Heather likes to read\, spend time outdoors\, and practice herbalism. \nPaul Pulsipher has been playing piano since he was a small child. He was classically trained for 10 years in his youth\, excelled in numerous solo/ensemble contests growing up and has been playing the organ in church congregations for the past 16 years across different parts of the United States and Canada. He has lengthy experience in composition and songwriting\, with many instrumental and Contemporary Christian releases self-recorded and produced. He also loves to sing\, is a classical composer and arranger\, guitarist\, and loves jamming on drums and other percussion when he gets the chance. Growing up\, he was a two-time Colorado Bandmaster Association champion with his high school marching band in 2003 and 2004 as the Pit Section Leader and sang in several church and academic choirs. He played piano\, sang some lead vocals and was a songwriter in the Southern Utah University Band\, Alternate Currents\, served as the SUU Commercial Music Club President\, won the Game Changer award with his music business at the Miller Center for Entrepreneurship Business Breakthrough\, and graduated from SUU with Honors\, Summa Cum Laude\, member Phi Kappa Phi. He currently lives in Nashville\, TN where he runs a production company and recording studio. Part of Paul’s creativity in music stems from spending thousands of hours coming up with what he thought were better melodies\, harmonies and bass lines than he heard from songs he listened to on CDs and the radio through his childhood and writing them down when he had the chance. He has taken that ability and turned it into one of his self-produced albums\, Classically Divergent\, a title which nods to his being on the Autism Spectrum.
