But what are the ingredients of a musical town? Perhaps it is our penchant for artistic free expression, our respect for radical creativ - ity, our valuing of diversity — especially the racial diversity that blends musical styles and lineages — and our sense of purpose that is not commercial but community centered. Our music makers are masterful, but they are also playful. The desire to become proficient has no doubt driven many a skilled player. But so has their desire to create with their listeners a shared experi- ence, a communion across difference, across experience and even across time. That love of craft is evident on each and every page. Covering the genres, I'm confident you'll find something for your taste. And although we tried to cover the cream of the crop, this sampling of the sounds of the Springs cannot claim to be comprehensive. There is so much more to hear. — Megan Bachman, editor Tom’s Market.......................................................... 11 Town Drug.............................................................. 10 Twin Coach Apartments....................................... 70 Unfinished Creations ............................................ 42 Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Yellow Springs.................................................. 55 Urology Specialist of Ohio................................... 59 Eric Espinosa, M.D. Veterinary Associates Animals Hospital............ 47 Village Artisans ....................................................... 16 Village Automotive ................................................ 22 Village Cyclery........................................................ 42 Village Mediation Program of Yellow Springs.................................................. 42 Village of Yellow Springs...................................... 46 Wagner Subaru...................................................... 66 Wander and Wonder............................................ 20 Wellness Center at Antioch College, The ......... 56 Wheat Penny Oven and Bar...................................8 Wildflower Salon ................................................... 35 Winds Café / Winds Wine Cellar....................... 70 World House Choir............................................... 43 WYSO Public Radio............................................... 69 Yellow Springs Arts Council................................. 18 Yellow Springs Brewery........................................ 67 Yellow Springs Chamber of Commerce.......29, 34 Yellow Springs Chiropractic ................................. 26 Erika Grushon, D.C.

Music is best heard. Nevertheless, “Sounds of the Springs” endeavors to cap- ture some of our village’s unbelievably rich musical past and present. You will have to imagine the strings reverberating in the Presbyterian Church sanctuary during a chamber music concert, the beats thumping in the Whitehall barn at a Juke Joint, the buskers’ voices wailing on the street, the orchestral climax of a concerto in ’50s-era Kelly Hall. The articles that follow tell the story of a creative community that has not only defined its own sound, but through its locally born and bred musicians, gone on to influence the wider world. “Sounds of the Springs” traces the threads of local musical influence to a few prominent progenitors; points out the pre-eminence of Antioch College and its radio station, WYSO; places Yellow Springs at the center of the ’60s rock sound; finds geographical roots in South - west Ohio bluegrass country, and figures in the major role of African Americans in a com- munity that early on offered opportunity. We discovered many hidden gems in the process. Did you know: • A villager once appeared on American Bandstand? • Antioch hosted the very first bluegrass concert on a college campus? • Members of seminal ’60s rock bands Buf - falo Springfield, Jefferson Airplane and Country Joe & the Fish lived here? • Rock ’n’ roll pioneer Chuck Berry ate lunch at a local diner just after it was desegregated? • World-class chamber ensembles vie for the prestigious Emerging Artists Award at an annual local competition? • Two internationally renowned African- American opera stars grew up here? • On two occasions, 35 years apart, 7,000 people attended a concert in Yellow Springs on the Antioch College golf course? We hope you learn more about our musical history. A self-guided tour cover- ing some of our prominent players and the places they performed, the “Sites of the Sounds,” is on page 38. y  index of Advertisers  y  Sounds of the Springs— y  A sampling of music in the village  y The cover to this year's Guide To Yellow Springs is inspired by the iconic Americana design work of the Hatch Show Print poster company out of Nashville, Tenn.
