Summary
Long Story Short is carving out their own sound within the chamber folk genre. Renowned instrumentalists Ashley Hoyer, Ben Schreiber, and Aria DiSalvio join forces to perform Hoyer’s originals and some traditional fiddle favorites. Mandolin, electric mandolin, fiddle, and cello weave melodies, textures, and harmonies to create a sound that has been described as cinematic and transportive. Hailed as a ‘mandolin phenomenon’ by the San Diego Tribune, Ashley’s compositions are the main staple of the trio. She crafts melodies and haunting harmonies that distinguish her works easily from the norm. Her other projects include reputable folk dance band, The Syncopaths, Sam ‘n Ash, an accordion/mandolin duo featured on the podcast Welcome to Night Vale, as well as a classical/folk crossover trio Fire and Grace and Ash. Ben Schreiber brings his driving energy and lyrical fiddling to the ensemble. A native of St. Louis, he travels across the country as an in-demand dance fiddler with his popular duo, Uncle Farmer. Cellist Aria DiSalvio brings her soulful, rich tone and refined technique to a wide variety of musical settings. Whether performing with the Santa Cruz Symphony or contemporary folk bands; or in the recording studio with artists such as Irish singer Éilís Kennedy or jazz trumpeter Roy Hargrove, Aria’s passion for and expertise in diverse styles of music shines through. A graduate of the University of Michigan School of Music, Aria is currently on faculty at Alasdair Fraser’s Sierra Fiddle Camp and lives with her husband, two children, dog and chickens in the mountains above Santa Cruz, California.
Although this trio is new on the scene, individually these musicians are at the top of their game and eager to create a reputation for the ensemble. Collectively, they have performed for many distinguished organizations: The Carmel Bach Festival, KVMR Celtic Festival, The Monterey Jazz Festival, Millpond Festival, LEAF Festival, Wintergrass Festival, Fairbanks Summer Arts Festival, Freight and Salvage, Bijou Theatre, Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Swallow Hill, The Station Inn, Northwest Folklife Festival, and many others.

11A Breakout Groups
Breakout #1: Can I Make a Living Doing This?
This hands-on session by artist Allison Wyper will walk you through the why (your goals and deepest values), what (how much you need to earn to thrive), and how (options for how to structure your career) of financial management for artists. We’ll touch on the importance of getting paid for your work (if that is your goal), declaring your worth, and how to leverage the power of personal relationships and barter resources with peers.
Breakout #2: From Surviving to Thriving: How to “Sell” Your Nonprofit Arts Organization Mindset and Money Coach and performing artist Marcy Heim of the Artful Asker will challenge you to take an honest look at your focus now, give you tools to reframe and fine-tune your focus, to move from simply surviving to beautifully thriving as you create a clear destination for others to find joy and good in their partnerships with you.

Tracy Hudak of Californians for the Arts will provide us with key and targeted insights on arts advocacy efforts being done at the State level and why you should care and share the impact of advocacy at the local community level and how every one of us are advocates whether we realize it or not.
03P: Endnote: ADAPT Joyfully! SHINE ON!
Your calling to create good in our world is more critical than ever. With Marcy’s 10 lessons to inspire generosity in yourself and others you will learn how to bring positive energy to ALL your relationships.

What lies ahead?
