Artist-In-Residence: Leela Srinivasan, Breckenridge

Leela Srinivasan is an Indian-American poet, researcher, and educator, originally from the Jersey Shore. She received her BA in psychology and MA in communication from Stanford University, where she authored two theses: a collection of psychological poetry titled The Shame to Cure (2018), and a qualitative analysis of motivations behind digital media usage. In 2022, she received her MFA in creative writing at the Michener Center for Writers in Austin, Texas, authoring a poetry collection titled Being a Person: A Brief Unpleasant History as her thesis.

While in residence, Leela plans to create a short-form collection of place poetry inspired by the arresting mountain scenery of Colorado. She hopes to further develop as a teacher and collaborator through working at Summit High School and the larger community, gaining a deeper appreciation for all kinds of art and its effects on the larger world.

Breck Create Performance: Marcia Ball + C.J. Chenier & the Red Hot Louisiana Band, Mardi Gras 2024, Riverwalk Center

“Fifty years have passed in a flash,” says Texas-born, Louisiana-raised pianist, songwriter and vocalist Marcia Ball of her long and storied career. Ball, the 2018 Texas State Musician Of The Year, has won worldwide fame and countless fans for her ability to ignite a full-scale roadhouse rhythm and blues party every time she takes the stage. Her rollicking Texas boogies, swampy New Orleans ballads and groove-laden Gulf Coast blues have made her a one-of-a-kind favorite with music lovers all over the world. With each new release, her reputation as a profoundly soulful singer, a boundlessly talented pianist and a courageous, inventive songwriter continues to grow. Her love of the road has led to years of soul-satisfying performances at festivals, concert halls and clubs. The New York Times says, “Marcia Ball plays two-fisted New Orleans barrelhouse piano and sings in a husky, knowing voice about all the trouble men and women can get into on the way to a good time.” The Houston Chronicle says simply, “She’s as perfect as an artist can be.”
Clayton Joseph Chenier is Creole music royalty. His father, the legendary Clifton Chenier, invented the style of music we know today as Zydeco and was the first Creole musician to be recognized with a Grammy Award. https://breckcreate.org/events/marcia-ball-c-j-chenier-the-red-hot-louisiana-band
