EVENT SCHEDULE - Available at www.tvarrunway.com ABOUT THE SHOW  More Than A Mannequin is excited for you to join us for our 1st annual TVÃŘ | Stylist Runway Competition.  TVÃŘ (pronounced VOSH) is the Czech Republic word for FACE and FRONT. We created this production for 10 emerging wardrobe stylists to bring their creativity from backstage to front + center on the main stage. Each stylist will have his or her time to shine as their mini-collection is viewed by our audience and panel of judges, which will be made up of 5 industry leaders. Our models will also be watched as they walk to be chosen to compete in The Strut, the end of show catwalk competition. WHAT'S THE CATCH  Stylists will style their collections based off of the show's selected theme. It could be one word or a short phrase. However, there will be no explanation. Stylists will use their own imagination to interpret what the show theme means to them. BENEFICIARY  Ask any true creative and they'll tell you that a right-brained-thinker's motives are inspired by their need to express their individuality. However, they'll also mention how good it feels when their creations help others in some way, shape, or form.  TVÃŘ Runway will always use it's creative event to benefit a different cause every year, starting with the Nation Kidney Foundation. This cause is especially close to our show producer because kidney disease runs in her family and she has personally had to donate her kidney to her mother. AWARDS  Stylist + model winners will receive career-changing awards and gifts that will earn them bragging rights for the year. These amazing prizes will be announced in May 2020. One of the many prizes that will be awarded to the winning stylist is becoming next year's Creative Director for TVÃŘ's marketing campaign and the winning model will become the face of next year's campaign.

Born in 1953 in Detroit, Michigan, Marshall Crenshaw learned to tune a guitar correctly at age ten and has been trying ever since. His first big break came in 1978 playing John Lennon in "Beatlemania", first as an understudy in New York, then in the West Coast company followed by a national touring company. Removing himself from that situation in Feb. 1980, Marshall settled in New York City. After crossing paths with the great and legendary Alan Betrock, Marshall recorded his debut single "Something's Gonna Happen" (for Betrock's Shake Records label), which led to a deal with Warner Bros. His debut album, Marshall Crenshaw, was acclaimed as a masterpiece upon its release in 1982 and established him as a singular songwriter, record maker, and guitarist. The album spawned the hit single "Someday, Someway," and other classics such as "(You're My) Favorite Waste of Time", "Whenever You're On My Mind" and "Cynical Girl." Over the course of a career that's spanned three decades, 13 albums Grammy and Golden Globe nominations, film and TV appearances (Buddy Holly in "La Bamba") and thousands of performances, Marshall Crenshaw's musical output has maintained a consistent fidelity to the qualities of artfulness, craftsmanship and passion, and his efforts have been rewarded with the devotion of a broad and remarkably loyal fan base. Along with touring around the country and the occasional recording project, Marshall currently hosts his own radio show, "The Bottomless Pit", every Saturday at 10 PM on New York's WFUV.  Other current projects include a documentary film-in progress about legendary record producer Tom Wilson. Says Crenshaw, "This is a road that I never imagined taking before, but it's been amazing and is going great.." “Although he was seen as a latter-day Buddy Holly at the outset, he soon proved too talented and original to be anyone but himself.†- Trouser Press The Bottle Rockets“Always lending uplift to hard times and good ones, Henneman and his band are still here to help you get through your real life.â€Â  — NPR Music“Imagine for a moment that the survivors of the Lynyrd Skynyrd plane crash in 1977 had decided to keep going and had replaced Ronnie Van Zant and Steve Gaines with The Clash’s Joe Strummer and Mick Jones. “ — Paste MagazineFormed nearly 30 years ago, the Bottle Rockets helped forge a now-popular subgenre—small-town, middle-class, Midwest American roots rock—part right-to-the-gut poetry, part rock ‘n’ roll, all truth. Bit Logic is a different sort of album for the St. Louis natives and shows them at their most self-aware, self-challenging, and socially alert. Recorded in St. Louis at Sawhorse Studios, engineered by Mario Viele and produced by longtime studio collaborator Eric “Roscoe†Ambel (The Del-Lords, Steve Earle), the Bottle Rockets’ 13th album has them looking at their unique stylistic blend through a different lens. While one of the group's earmarks is constructing blue-collar anthems, Bit Logic has the quartet focusing outside themselves, at how change and adaptation affects the bigger picture. “We were not planning any kinda ‘theme’ to this album, but one kinda showed up,†said lead singer and guitarist Brian Henneman. “If it's about anything at all, it's an album about existing in this modern world. Trying to dodge depression and anger. These songs are views from the moments when you're mostly succeeding at it.†Yet, to balance those times when success may seem just a breath out of reach, the album includes the infectious pop masterpiece “Maybe Tomorrow†which offers an optimistic and buoyant outlook on momentary failure. The band returned to its more democratic songwriting approach this time, which generated four co-written songs, in contrast to their previous and critically acclaimed album, South Broadway Athletic Club, which Henneman primarily wrote. Leading up to their time in the studio, Henneman sent around some bare-bones acoustic iPhone recordings that would serve as the album’s blueprint, and the group fleshed out one song a day by means of three 4-day studio sessions. The group went into the recording sessions with a fresh outlook—to bring out more of their Americana influences and to write a record that more accurately reflected their collective approach. What they found while doing so surprised them. “The past provided touchstones,†said Ambel. “Times when you could hear Merle Haggard and the Grateful Dead on the same radio station. The country vibe came from the sounds that inspired us in the studio. Sounds from the more experimental times of country. Post Hank, post George.â€Â Other inspirations came from “off-the-beaten-path Americana†sources like Don Williams, Poco, Jackson Browne, Jerry Reed, and more, all of whom “showed up†in the music during the sessions, audibly channeling themselves through John Horton’s hot-shit, phase-shifted country-folk pickin’; Henneman’s penny philosopher, raspy drawl; or Mark Ortmann and Keith Voegele’s in-the-pocket, country-rock overdrive. The title track and “Lo-Fi†are pointed laments of how the ever-relevant topic of modernization affects the individual—how it can be a marvelous dream, but also a dehumanizing reality. In “Bit Logic†Henneman and Ortmann team up to pen some of the band’s most clever and conscious wordplay, “In my technicolor childhood / We burned incandescent dreams / Illuminatin' on these future things / That didn't turn out like we thought they would.†But there’s always the other side of the coin, as in “Lo-Fiâ€: “Al Green in the kitchen/ On the AM radio/ Best bad sound that I ever did know/ Scratchy and it's muddy / But it carries me through/ Straight on down to Memphis in '72.â€Â It all funnels into the brilliant, poignant, quotable critique on the music industry, “Bad Time to Be an Outlaw.†In the bouncy, meta, swampy country number Henneman takes stock, rethinks his choices in life, but still ends up at the same outcome. The lyrics are pure Prine, the music wonderfully reminiscent of Waylon and Reed. That Nashville Pop it ain't my dealEven though that cash flow's realBut these days "What Would Waylon Do?"Don't make much money sad but trueIt's a bad time to be an outlaw Don't get me wrong I love what I doCouldn't even change it if I wanted toBut random selection of the universeIs makin' me think my job's a curseIt's a bad time to be an outlaw Through it all, the album is the simple meeting the complex, traditional meeting modern, stick-to-your-guns resoluteness meeting adaptation. It’s what Bottle Rockets have always done, but with a fresh take. Bit Logic breaks new artistic ground but remains in character.
