The Major Family Ranch Hands Band
The Major Family Ranch Hands
Band plays original and
traditional Western Music. Their original material comes from their everyday
exposure to a rural, agricultural lifestyle as they live in Avon where they
raise show calves, horses and a lot of hay. Several of their songs have been
made into videos. The band’s
current members are: Dale, (Dad) on guitar and vocals, Erin,
on Fiddle and vocals, and Jake on upright bass and
vocals. Erin recently won
the State 4H Vocal contest. The
Majors said, “With a busy farm life, it will be good to come to town and share
our music with folks in Logan”.

Irv and Margie
Margie and Irv will perform favorite song classics that you've heard and loved all your
life. Margie will sing these wonderful
songs as Irv will provide the accompaniment at the grand piano.
Margie
Johnson
performed in a soft rock band for several years, and toured with the BYU Young
Ambassadors in college as a featured soloist. For over two decades she was
featured as the female vocalist for several dance bands performing in the
Washington, DC metropolitan area. Performance venues have included the Ritz
Carlton, the Wolf Trap Center for the Arts, and the Kennedy Center. A devoted
fan of musical theater, Margie played lead roles in Hello Dolly, The Order is
Love, The Fantasticks, and 42nd Street. In the studio, she has enjoyed
recording commercial jingles and singing background vocals for several popular
and country artists’ albums, including the Osmonds. Her most memorable musical
experience to date was arranging and recording all female character songs for
an original musical, Anasazi, written by William Strauss, founder of the
Capitol Steps, a DC musical political satire performing group.
Irv
Nelson plays
many other keyboard instruments in addition to the piano: pipe organs and
various electronic keyboards. He
also plays acoustic guitar and bass.
His other talents include composing, arranging, choral conducting, and
singing. In addition to performing with Margie, Irv plays with The Fender
Benders classic rock band and Relic Acoustic Band. He is also a guest artist
and arranger for other musical groups, including the Utah State University choirs. Irv teaches piano and guitar lessons
that emphasize ear training and chord theory, as well as vocal lessons.

Hatch Academy of Magic and Music
The Hatch
Academy of Magic and Music will feature deceptionist Richard Hatch, his wife violinist Rosemary Kimura Hatch, and their son pianist Jonathan Hatch in a family ensemble of "highlights" from
their popular "Matinee Enchantee" programs at the Thatcher-Young
Mansion. The performance will
include music by Bartok, Kreisler and Saint-Saens and magic by Punx, Vernon and
Robert-Houdin. Also featured will be Richard Hatch's original presentation for
the traditional Japanese feat known as "Nankin Tamasudare",
accompanied by Rosemary's performance of Michiyo Miyagi's "Haru no
Umi" (The Sea of Spring). Richard's original story, Taro-san the
Fisherman and the Weeping Willow Tree, which is illustrated with the "tamasudare" bamboo mat, was
published as an illustrated children's book in a bilingual (English and
Japanese) edition.
Richard holds two graduate degrees in Physics from Yale
University, but finds it easier apparently to violate the laws of nature than
to discover them. Richard and
Rosemary moved to Logan in October 2010 where they opened the Hatch Academy of
Magic and Music, an educational institution, in the historic 1878 Thatcher-Young
Mansion. (www.hatchacademy.com)
Rosemary, a graduate of the Eastman and Yale Schools of Music,
teaches violin at the Hatch Academy and is also performing in the UFOMT
orchestra this season in Verdi's Otello and Wagner's Flying Dutchman.
Jonathan has studied piano with Paul Krystofiak at St.
Thomas University in Houston and with Sophia Gilmson at the University of
Texas. He is currently focusing his creative interest on visual arts and was
recently given the 2013 Little Bloomsbury Promising Artist Award.
