 "A wonderful guitar player and great songwriter " - Steve Miller      "Curry is the next guitar hero" - Peter Frampton     Acclaimed singer-songwriter Matthew Curry returns with his new album ONE FOR THE RIDE, a dynamic and heartfelt collection that showcases the full range of his musicianship -- from fiery, virtuostic guitar work to intimate, emotionally rich songwriting. The album explores life on the road, love celebration, personal reflection, and Americana storytelling, all delivered with Curry's signature depth and gritty authenticity.   Born and raised in Bloomington, Illinois, Curry picked up the guitar at age four, was performing live by eight, and leading his own band by eleven. Curry's distinctive blend of blues, rock, southern rock, and old-school country has earned him a devoted audience across the globe. Over the years, Matthew has toured with major icons including the Doobie Brothers, Steve Miller Band, Peter Frampton, Journey, Don Felder, with Steve Miller praising Curry as "a wonderful guitar player and great songwriter in the league of Stevie Ray Vaughan."   One For The Ride captures Curry's life on the road, his love for storytelling, and the musical influences that shaped him. The album bursts open with high-energy southern rock flair, drawing inspiration from the raw spirit of bands like ZZ Top and the timeless road-song tradition.Tracks like "Rum Stumblin'" showcase Curry's knack for crafting fun, bluesy, party-driven grooves, while "Born Behind The Wheel" leans into gritty riffs and harmonies rooted in the southern rock Curry grew up listening to.For more on Matthew Curry check at the website:https://matthewcurry.com

Listen to a conversation with Cesar Maldonado, founder and artistic director of Mariachi Herencia de México. Based in Chicago, the ensemble grew out of the Mariachi Heritage Foundation, a nonprofit organization devoted to preserving and advancing mariachi music through youth education. Founded in 2016, Mariachi Herencia de México has evolved from a student project into a dynamic ensemble of young virtuosos, blending deep respect for tradition with a vibrant, contemporary energy. Their 2017 debut album topped Latin music streaming charts and earned a Latin Grammy nomination — a remarkable achievement for a group born out of a community education program. Since then, they've released multiple acclaimed recordings, received a second Latin Grammy nomination, and toured extensively across North America, bringing mariachi music to major stages and inspiring a new generation of performers.  Mariachi Herencia de México performs in Indiana February 19 at the Indiana University Auditorium in Bloomington, and February 20 at the Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

James 3:13-18. From the "New Testament" sermon series. Preached by Jurgen von Hagen.

As we were setting up our recording gear in the dining room, Marina Fiore materialized with two plates of warm apple tarts with streusel topping and brie pastries, accompanied by handfuls of walnuts. She told us that Patrick thought the young men–he was referring to us two, of course–might need a little energy before the interview. This was our portal into the hospitality and warmth of Patrick and Marina Fiore, who opened this iconic Bloomington restaurant almost fifty years ago, serving hippies, academics, and townies who drunkenly arrived thinking it was still the greasy spoon that had been there only months before. Their fifty years of Bloomington stories made this one into a two-parter, so look for the second episode when Josh finally gets his shit together.

Galen Clavio and Grace Ybarra open with a big CrimsonCast announcement — Grace is joining the show as a regular host — then dive into a two-sport update on Indiana basketball and Indiana football. On the basketball side, they recap IU's split in L.A.: why the UCLA double-overtime win looms even larger now, what went wrong in the USC loss, and how the Hoosiers' late-game decision-making and three-point reliance shape the NCAA Tournament ceiling. They also look ahead to the Wisconsin home game and what Indiana needs to do to stay on the right side of the bracket conversation. After the break, it's football: Indiana absorbs its first meaningful offseason “losses” as coaches move on, then quickly answers with a familiar name — Tino Sunseri returns to the staff. Galen and Grace discuss why keeping the core intact (including OC Mike Shanahan and DC Bryant Haines) matters, what ESPN-style roster/portal evaluations get right (and wrong), and how Indiana's talent evaluation under Curt Cignetti continues to challenge the sport's assumptions. Finally: spring game timing and what could be a massive Little 500 week in Bloomington.

Indiana football's historic season officially gets its punctuation mark.On this episode of CrimsonCast, Galen Clavio and Scott Caulfield reflect on Indiana's championship celebration at Memorial Stadium, what the moment meant for fans and the program, and why holding the event in the stadium mattered — even in brutal weather. From there, the conversation widens into the big picture: roster decisions, NFL calculus for players, national perception shifts, and how Indiana's run may have fundamentally changed the way college football can be built.The guys dive deep into why Indiana's championship matters beyond Bloomington, how Curt Cignetti's approach challenges long-held assumptions about recruiting and roster construction, and why the Hoosiers' rise is sending shockwaves through the sport. This is both a celebration of what just happened — and a thoughtful look at what comes next for Indiana football and college football as a whole.

Saturday Down South's Connor O'Gara joins The Next Round for a fun conversation as his alma mater Indiana Hoosiers Football completes one of the most shocking runs in sports history by winning the College Football National Championship. From Bloomington to the top of the college football world, we break down how Indiana went from longshot to title holder and what it means for the future of the sport. Connor shares the exact moment he knew this Indiana team was different, dives into the impact and leadership of head coach Curt Cignetti, and tackles the biggest question facing the program now: can Indiana sustain this level of success after back-to-back historic seasons? We also explore whether this championship gives real hope to non-traditional college football powers and debate if this is truly the greatest turnaround in college football history. Plus, we dig into Indiana's NIL operation, the resources fueling the Hoosiers' rise, and whether billionaire alum Mark Cuban could help tip the scales even further in Bloomington going forward. If you're an Indiana fan, a Big Ten fan, or just love college football, this is a must-watch breakdown of one of the most unbelievable championship runs ever.

Bloomington, Indiana is the center of the college football world and Stugotz can't believe it. Taylor had the saddest watching experience of anyone for the National Championship game.

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer who shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Good on Wednesday in Minneapolis is Jonathan Ross, according to court documents and accounts from federal officials.Ross shot into Good's car while she was driving away from the site of an ICE operation near Portland Avenue and East 34th Street. U.S. government officials have labeled Good as a “domestic terrorist” who attempted to strike and kill ICE officers.During Thursday's White House press briefing, Vice President JD Vance said Ross “might have been a little nervous” because of an incident last summer in which he was dragged by a vehicle and needed upwards of 30 stitches.Vance's description of Ross' injuries matches with an encounter that took place in Bloomington on June 17.Court documents detail the injuries an ICE agent suffered in the course of attempting to stop Roberto Carlos Muñoz-Guatemala, who prosecutors say was in the country without legal immigration status and had a previous conviction of fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct.An exhibit list describes photos of the injuries as belonging to “Officer Ross.” A jury trial notice lists “Jonathan Ross” as the federal government's first witness who testified in that trial.During the stop, Ross ordered Muñoz-Guatemala to get out of the car or he would break the window, a criminal complaint states. When Muñoz-Guatemala didn't comply, Ross broke the rear driver's side window and attempted to reach in and unlock the front driver's side door. Muñoz-Guatemala put the car in drive while Ross' arm was in the broken window, and he was dragged “approximately 100 yards” down the street.According to court documents, one cut to Ross' right arm required 20 stitches; he received 13 more stitches for a gash on his left hand; and he suffered scrapes to his knee, elbows and face. A case brief filed five months after the initial indictment stated he needed 50 or more stitches for treatment.Last month, a jury convicted Muñoz-Guatemala of one count of assault on a federal officer with a dangerous and deadly weapon. He has yet to be sentencedOne law enforcement official confirmed to ABC News that Ross has 10 years of experience and is a Minneapolis-based member of ICE's special response team, which is deployed for high-profile and tactical situations.“He's an experienced officer that has served a number of years, and we recognize he acted according to his training, and we expect that all of the policies and procedures of review will be exactly that he acted appropriately to protect his life and the life of his colleagues and fellow law enforcement officers that were there,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said of Ross during a news conference held Thursday morning in New York.Noem and DHS officials say the officer was taken to the hospital because he was hit by Good's vehicle. However, bystander video of the shooting does not appear to show any serious contact, and the shooter was up and walking the entire time.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
