The Shift ListJessica Largey (Simone, Manresa, Providence) - Los AngelesChef Jessica Largey was born and raised in the agricultural town of Fillmore, California, located just an hour outside of Los Angeles, and it turns out that growing up in a small town surrounded by orange groves, backyard avocado trees, and little else, was the perfect environment for a young chef to learn how to cook with fresh produce.
It’s not surprising, then, that Jessica will be incorporating Southern California’s abundance of produce into the menu at Simone, her first restaurant as head chef, which opened in Downtown LA’s arts district on September 20.

Wavemaker Conversations: A Podcast for the Insanely CuriousIntroducing Ben Sollee: Kentucky NativeBen Sollee is a cellist/singer/songwriter whose music defies all categories. His unique sound, which you will hear during this conversation, is influenced by classical, bluegrass, and R&B, and was described by New York Times music critic Stephen Holden as "meticulous, fluent arrangements continually morph[ing] from one thing to another." Sollee loves to interact with audiences in small venues, which led to his "Ditch the Van" tours, where he straps his cello to his bike and pedals hundreds of miles from performance to performance.

Live In Concert from NPR's All Songs ConsideredBen Sollee & Daniel Martin Moore: Newport Folk Festival 2010It's no surprise that two Kentucky singer-songwriters would come together to bond over their love of mountain life. But the first album-length collaboration by cellist Ben Sollee and guitarist/banjo player Daniel Martin Moore, 'Dear Companion,' is about little else. Recorded to raise money and awareness for Appalachian preservation -- most pointedly in opposition to mountaintop-removal coal mining -- the album was produced by another likeminded Kentuckian, Jim James of My Morning Jacket. Here, Sollee and Moore perform live at the Newport Folk Festival in Newport, R.I.
