KDRT-Joy-and-Madness-group-image (3).jpg

In February 2019, the eight piece soul and funk band Joy and Madness exploded onto the stage at Odd Fellows Hall, and kept the crowd dancing throughout the evening. Jim "Live Tracks" Buchanan recorded this epic, joy-filled event and shares it tonight. Joy and Madness describe their sound as "a raucous mix of raw stonesy energy, pulsing groove, and juicy horn lines coloring tightly crafted songs". They’ve shared the stage with other high energy performers such as Tower of Power, Trombone Shorty, and Collective Soul. They describe their front man and vocalist Hans Eberbach as bringing so much freewheeling energy to the stage, that he has literally broken right through the floorboards.

COVID-19 Community Report Feb 16th, 2021 - Speaking with Davis Teachers Amy George and Dianna Stommel

Tue, 02/16/2021 - 12:40pm | Autumn Labbe-Renault

COVID-19-DJUSD-logo (2).jpg

This month I’m conducting a series of interviews devoted to the reopening of in-person instruction in the Davis Joint Unified School District. I have two interviews today: teachers Amy George (6th grade) and Dianna Stommel (11th grade). Dianna is also the current president of the Davis Teachers Association. Next week, I’ll speak to parents with different opinions about reopening. Both teachers share what's it been like to teach remotely this year, and how they've worked to build and maintain community in their classrooms. We also discuss what would make them feel safe and valued as the shift to hybrid and in-person instruction commences. Dianna addresses the DTA's position on reopening.
