Tangled in Emme Packer

 

new-Disney-Tangled-Poster

Join us this Friday for our last movie of the season.  Movie Under the Stars will be showing Tangled, with a live musical performance by Emme Packer.

Friday will be the last movie for this season and as such we have saved one of the best for last. Disney’s Tangled is a fun, family friendly movie that puts a twist on the classic Rapunzel story. In Disney's version of this classic tale, the audience is able to truly get to know the familiar characters, along with quite a few new ones. Rapunzel who is not allowed to leave her tower due to the fact that he Mother has told her that there are ruffians  in the world who want her hair. Yet, all she wants to do is visit the floating lights that illuminate the sky every night on her birthday. Then one day she meets a stranger, who changes her out look on the world. emme packer

Born and raised in a small farming community in rural Utah, Emme's vocal talent had been known to only a few until at age 18 she self released her first record, the aptly named "Dirty Street." Her brilliant self taught guitar style, honed through thousands of hours of practice in her parents basement, anchored her for her next releases "Better Luck Next Time." in 2005 and "Joy. The Machine." in 2007. The albums found her pitch perfect vocals shining through the paintings of her poetic "dream-scape" lyrics. Her audience suddenly became world wide and she began to tour across the U.S, Canada, and Japan. Artists such as; Sea Wolf, Lydia, Alive in Wild Paint, Kate Voegele, and Denison Witmer began to take notice and added Emme on as their opener. Her shows have given audiences a glimpse of her soothing, yet soaring vocals and her "not of this world" guitar skills. While her earnest words have tugged at heart strings world wide.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone this Friday. See you there!

Six Short Words and Better off Dead

better off dead

This Friday Movie Under the Stars is proud to feature the film, Better Off Dead as well as a live musical performance by the band, Six Short Words.

Better Off Dead has become a movie that, for many, brings back memories of their high school years. Throughout this movie we follow the life of  teenager Lane Meyer. He has lost his girlfriend, broken his skis, and is constantly being challenged to drag race.  Then, Lane meets the foreign exchange student living with his neighbors across the street. This movie puts a funny twist on the daily activities of a teenagers life while making the audience laugh.

Six Short Words is a Band that is relatively new. They have been playing at small gigs for years and finally this fall they are excited to release their first CD. Six Short Words have been greatly influenced by many great bands; James Taylor, Ben Folds, Dave Mathews Band, and Death Cap for Cutie. We are excited for them to play at Movie Under the Stars this Friday.

Don’t forget to arrive a bit earlier than 7:30 in order to secure that perfect patch of lawn! See you all at Movie Under the Stars!!!
