SUMMARY:Workshop & 2x4 Showcase: Instrument and Vocal Microphones
DESCRIPTION:Cleveland Rocks: PPF’s Professional Development Workshops are held on the third Monday of the month. Each workshop will focus on a different music-related topic\, followed by a 2×4 Songwriter Showcase featuring 4 different artists\, 2 songs each. \nInstrument and Vocal Microphones\nMon\, April 20\, 2026 • 7pm\nCleveland Rocks Shop (15801 Waterloo Rd)\nFree Event! RSVP here \nSpeaker: David Kennedy\nStay for The 2×4 Songwriter Showcase immediately following the workshop.\n2×4 Artists: Nate “Ace” Eberhardt (Nature Nvoke)\, Craig Rich\, Tyler Winfield (The Modern Kollective)\, Abby Riley\n  \nThis event is made possible with support from Cuyahoga Arts and Culture and The Ohio Arts Council. \n\n\n\nBios:  \n\nNate “Ace” Eberhardt (Nature Nvoke)\nCleveland artist Nate “Ace” Eberhardt is an Afro-futurist and prolific conceptualist whose belief in the healing power of music has manifested itself in 5 singles and 7 EP’s. These works of varying numbers of tracks were produced and released under the name Nature\, including the 2024 12-song album\, “Doors Of Perception.” Since its beginning as a solo project in 2019\, Eberhardt has primarily been concerned with turning the practice of merging past struggles and present identity into a sound. Naturally evolving since its conception\, what was once a solo bedroom project has become a full ensemble with the additions of drummer David “Coach Dave” Parks and bassist Josh “Mekhi” Burton. Now Nature Nvoke\, the group is releasing Echoes In Eternity\, an 5 song EP\, the group’s first full band offering.Eberhardt’s love of goth music and aesthetic aside\, Nature Nvoke is a work toward future liberation. For Nature Nvoke\, all rock music is ancestral memory\, which means that experimentation in sound design\, namely blending post-punk\, darkwave\, and cinematic composition is an inherently Afro-futurist vision. Through this\, Nature Nvoke aims to build upon the rich tradition they were born into\, expanding upon Black musicianship and representation within post-punk and goth music. Taking influence from bands like TV On The Radio\, DIIV\, Diät\, The Soft Moon\, and Bloc Party\, Nature Nvoke is just as invested in both genres\, but also has no issue experimenting with elements of dream pop\, shoegaze\, and on previous releases\, techno and house music. Lyrically\, Nature Nvoke centers on themes of duality\, resistance\, stoicism\, ancestral memory\, freedom vs. control\, and transformation\, passing from topic to topic while keeping a consistent relativity to Black liberation through music and art.Nature Nvoke stands at the crossroads of rebellion and reimagination. Eberhardt’s background in grassroots organizing\, film scoring\, and DIY punk culture informs a stage presence that is both confrontational and transcendent. As a Black frontman reshaping the contours of genre\, he leads the project with a fearless commitment to sonic liberation and cultural legacy\, building a future that’s as soulful as it is subversive.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/naturenvoke \nCraig Rich\n“Craig Rich’s music lives at the intersection of alternative rock\, psychedelia\, and dream pop. Guided by influences such as Johnny Marr\, Slowdive\, Brian Eno\, UNKLE\, and Radiohead\, he creates immersive\, guitar-driven soundscapes underpinned by subtle electronic textures\, reflecting on modern culture\, human connection\, and the tension between nature and the artificial.”\nhttps://www.craigrichmusic.com\nhttps://craigrichmusic.bandcamp.com \nTyler Winfield (The Modern Kollective)\nRock-pop band from Cleveland\, OH. Started out as an acoustic duo\, then grew from there! \nAbby Riley\nAkron\, Ohio native Abby Riley is an independent musician\, writer\, and creative releasing her debut original music in 2026. Writing between the Midwest and Costa Rica\, her work captures the ache and innocence of small-town dreaming with cinematic depth — grounded in hometown memory yet expansive in emotional reach. A lifelong performer with roots in musical theater\, Abby’s songwriting is intimate yet sweeping — diary-like confessions set against wide-open skies. Her debut album introduces a voice both vulnerable and assured: a self-proclaimed lover girl unafraid to romanticize\, reflect\, and reclaim her own narrative.Blending nostalgia with melodic warmth and rich storytelling\, Abby Riley is carving out space as a new indie artist shaped by devotion\, reinvention\, and the quiet courage it takes to be fully seen.\nhttps://www.instagram.com/itsabbyriley/

By 2024\, I had performed at 2\,000+ events. In 2004\, I was on top of the world. Had a marketing job for a Fortune 500 company and played in a 6-piece horn. Suddenly\, my world came to a screeching halt. I was laid off by my corporate job\, and my long-time band ran its course. I had zero income and three kids and a wife to support. Rather than feel sorry for myself\, I had an idea: Why not apply my marketing experience into building a solo event business? Most musicians aren’t marketers. They’re doctors\, truck drivers\, teachers\, salespeople\, realtors\, etc. I felt I had an advantage. So\, I ran with it. Fast forward to the present: the idea worked! Through aggressive marketing and perseverance\, I have played over 2\,200 engagements – mostly on weekends! Now it’s time to give back. I would like to share my success with other musicians facing similar challenges in achieving their dreams. \n\nAcoustic Guitarist (performed 2\,000+ events)\nBlossom Music Center (intern)\nAgora Ballroom (National Talent Buyer)\nBowling Green State University (Talent Buyer)\nMasters Thesis: BGSU “Cleveland Rocks: An Industry Side Pattern For Achieving Commercial Success in Popular Music in Cleveland”\nGuitar Lessons (2016 to 2026)\n\n2×4 Bios to come

SUMMARY:Sound of the Land: Alex Bevan
DESCRIPTION:Cleveland Rocks:PPF and the Fidelity Hotel in Downtown Cleveland are partnering to present the Sound of the Land Live Music Series. Each month\, enjoy music from a different local artist to elevate your Wednesday night happy hour. Free shows!\n\n\n\nJuly 15\, 2026 | 4-6pm | Fidelity Hotel Lobby\nAlex Bevan\nFree Event! RSVP Here.\n\nIf the name Alex Bevan means anything to you.. it probably begins with the song “Skinny”… the 1976 Summer Anthem that filled the airwaves of radio station WMMS and brought the Cleveland folksinger’s career into sharp focus “back in the day”. Perhaps too\, it might conjure the melody of “The Grand River Lullaby”\, Hearkening back to lost years of innocence and first love in a simpler and more romantic time… a time when the Woodstock Generation found it’s rhythmn in the album oriented rock infused soundtracks that still echo in the rivulets and streams of Spotify and Itunes music delivery systems. Alex Bevan has been picking up his guitar and going to perform for audiences for over forty six years… singing primarily songs of his own crafting and supported mostly by his deft guitar picking and agile improvisational wit…. In short… he is a troubadour of the journeyman class who brings a fresh perspective and unabashed enthusiasm for storytelling to each and every member of the the audience he interacts with. A truly analog entertainer for a digital time!https://alexbevan.com/\n\n\nLearn more: https://fidelityhotelcle.com/
