The melodies he wr ites reach across musical genres. The lyrics speak to the sadness and beau ty and sometimes\, even humor\, of where he’s been. He's got the retro c ool vibe which not only makes the whiskey taste better\, but also makes yo ur troubles seem like one good blues song away from vanishing into the nig ht. \; He is often joined by Al Falaschi on Drums\, Lacouir Yancey on Bass\, and Mel Ford on Guitar to create “Johnny Chimes and the Natch'l B lues Band”.\n\nCONTACT: music@union.wisc.edu\n\nURL: https://union.wisc. edu/events-and-activities/event-calendar/event/behind-beat-johnny-chimes LOCATION:The Terrace (See Event Details)\, Memorial Union SUMMARY:Behind the Beat with Johnny Chimes URL;VALUE=URI:https://union.wisc.edu/events-and-activities/event-calendar/e vent/behind-beat-johnny-chimes END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=America/Chicago:20260408T045746 UID:205572@calendar.wisc.edu DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20250801T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20250801T173000 DESCRIPTION:https://grad.wisc.edu/current-students/doctoral-guide/\n\nCONTA CT: 262-2433\, gsacserv@grad.wisc.edu SUMMARY:Graduate School Summer 2025: Request for all Master's and Doctoral Degree Warrants END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=America/Chicago:20260408T045746 UID:210244@calendar.wisc.edu DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20250801T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20250801T200000 DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Terrace Art Zone from July 31 to August 2\, any time between 5 and 8 PM\, to \; create your own Terrace Gelli print! \n All ages and skill levels welcome \n All supplies are provided \n No ad vanced registration required \n Learn more about the Terrace Art Zone.\n\n CONTACT: wheelhouse@union.wisc.edu\n\nURL: https://union.wisc.edu/events-a nd-activities/event-calendar/event/terrace-art-zone-gelli-printing-monopri nting-fun LOCATION:The Terrace (Terrace Art Zone)\, Memorial Union SUMMARY:Terrace Art Zone: Gelli Printing - Monoprinting Fun URL;VALUE=URI:https://union.wisc.edu/events-and-activities/event-calendar/e vent/terrace-art-zone-gelli-printing-monoprinting-fun END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=America/Chicago:20260408T045746 UID:209527@calendar.wisc.edu DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20250801T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20250801T220000 DESCRIPTION:Compass Rose is a profound musical act that hails from Madison\ , WI.
