The Sweet Lillies LIVE at The Virgil with Special Guests: Liam Kyle Cahill & Andrew David Weber
2024-05-16 18:00 - 22:00
The Sweet Lillies take the stage live at The Virgil on May 16th for a very special night of music.
The Sweet Lillies’ music is, first and foremost, heartfelt and collaborative. Those defining traits are given life by the quartet of musicians who make up the Lillies. Together they have combined their individual strengths to deliver powerful narratives of life in song. With their lineup of guitar, viola, upright bass, drums and ethereal vocal harmonies that float like a dream, the Sweet Lillies’ music has a hard hitting original flavor with a forward-looking eye. They have incorporated all of their cumulative life-experiences into their music, song-writing, and artistry, crafting an uncommonly-beautiful style they have christened “String-Americana” – a nod to the band’s all encompassing musical tastes and willingness to experiment with genres ranging from folk and rock all the way to hip-hop.
This night of music kicks off a two night special of a live album recording at The Virgil with Liam Kyle Cahill, a Nevada based songwriter (and geologist) that has traveled the world over and written about his experiences. He will be joined by Andrew David Weber, a prolific songwriter out of Wisconsin and also a founding member of their joint band “Part Time Problems”, as well as local restaurateur turned songwriter Kasey Christensen.

The Virgil’s 3rd Anniversary Party with Marty O'Reilly (trio)!
2024-04-19 19:00 - 22:00
We’re absolutely thrilled to celebrate another amazing year at The Virgil! And what better way to do so than by hosting an unforgettable anniversary celebration and show, showcasing the extraordinary musical talents of Marty O’Reilly? Mark April 19th on your calendar, as Marty O’Reilly hits our stage alongside a lineup of special guests, promising an evening filled with unparalleled musical magic! Don’t miss out on this exceptional showcase of talent. We can’t wait to see you there!

Doors: 7:00 PM

Ticket price: $20
Explaining Marty O’Reilly’s music is like describing a dream. It feels familiar, but at the same time unchartered. His songs sound bluesy but not blues, folk but not folk, soulful but not soul. Marty’s voice is beautiful and unique, his lyrics stark yet lush over gritty electrified guitar, melding beautifully into genre-defying music within the vast definitions of Americana. One can hear an urgency and complexity in the songs, expressing something elemental and perhaps contradictory: love and anger, joy and pain, real and imagined.
The live performance is at the core of Marty’s projects. On stage, whether accompanied by a band, or alone, he enters a trance and the music is born again as something new every night. It’s what his followers call “magic”. He goes from raw gospel blues to cinematic epics, from heavy driving grooves to delicately arranged folk songs. Marty leaves the stage out of breath and sweaty, his audience in awe. It’s hard to describe, impossible to categorize. Yet people who know the music will try to explain it to you, just as you might struggle to explain a dream in the morning. The details might slip away as you recount them, but the feeling remains.
“I started playing music as medicine for myself to feel good and digest some melancholy,” Marty leaves off. “Over time, I realized if music makes me feel good, the people around me who become a part of it will feel good too. It connects us on the same wavelength. I hope to give the world something real and refreshing.

They increase the presence of children and families in the community, as more narrow geographic focus supports walking to and from school, and by partnering with local playgrounds, gardens and other civic spaces that would otherwise be on-site in larger institutions. We expand our definition of “stakeholders” beyond the families we serve directly, and we work to make our surrounding communities stronger and healthier for children.

The Virgil Listening Room Presents - An Evening with Joe Vann & Gina Waller
2024-02-21 19:00 | The Virgil, 301 Vassar Street, Reno, NV, 89502
Join us for an evening of live music with Joe Vann showcasing his new album “For Everyone”. Joe Vann will be accompanied by local indie folk artist, Gina Waller.
Doors 7:00 pm
All Ages Welcome
Joe Vann is a producer and songwriter who is on his way to becoming an integral part of the music industry. He has an original sound that mixes airy vocals with gentle acoustic music. His popularity shot up when he released his song, Can You Be Mine, which has gained over sixty thousand views since it was first released in early 2021. He was also the lead singer of the rock band, From Indian Lakes.
Vann’s musical career began with his band, which formed in 2009. He wrote most of the songs for the band too, and they released four albums as a group. With twenty thousand Instagram followers and nine thousand Youtube subscribers, the band were definitely popular, and released music up until 2019.
Now, Vann is exploring life as a solo artist for a while. He first began uploading music to Youtube in 2020, when he posted several cover songs on his account. His first few videos only received a few hundred views, but he persevered, continuing to share his music simply because he loved it. However, the success of his original song, Can You Be Mine, alerted many music fans to his up and coming presence in the industry. Now, he has gained over 12 thousand Instagram followers who are awaiting his new music with baited breath.
Gina Rose is an indie folk singer and songwriter from Reno, Nevada. Her inspiration is drawn from tenderness of Patsy Cline, Emmylou Harris, and Lucinda Williams, amongst many other country stars of the 60s and 70s. Amidst the dim lights of her stages, her soothing, emotion-filled voice and powerful guitar resonate with an audience in a profound way that keeps them coming back.

Cacao Love Yoga Pop-Up with Tyler Marru Cottrell
2024-02-14 18:00 - 19:30
A nourishing Valentines offering, into the temple of the heart, through cacao, movement and sound.
An opportunity to explore the depths of the heart from a foundation of compassion and love, dissolve past limitations, and clear a path for fulfillment and healing.
Cacao is a spiritual aid and superfood packed with antioxidants, vitamins, nutrients, and minerals. Used for over 5,000 years in ceremony; cacao is a gentle guide through transformational shifts in consciousness and an opportunity for deep introspection.
Combined with Yoga, the heart opening medicine of ceremonial cacao, facilitates new levels of connectedness and euphoria. The perfect alchemy of nutrients, neurotransmitters, bioactive compounds, and intentional movement makes the ideal environment for profound love, compassion, and transformation; meeting ourselves in moment to moment presence
The journey:
We will clear our energetic fields; gentle saging with local sagebrush and lavender, opening ourselves up to receive the potent medicine of cacao, and flow into the healing frequencies of sound and movement.

Energy Clearing
Sacred Cacao

Yoga & DJ

Guided meditation

While cacao isn’t as psychoactive, it does contain a concoction of ‘bliss chemicals’ that stimulate the heart-rate while increasing your good vibes. These include salsolinol which trigger the release of dopamine, as well as tyrosine which is a precursor for dopamine so that dopamine can be made in the body easily and fast.
Benefits of Cacao
* Detoxifies liver
* Improves brain health
* Enhances mood
* Reduces Inflamation + fatigue
* Boosts serotonin
* Balances harmones
* Lowers blood pressure
* High in antioxidants
* Neutralizes toxins

**Please note that while cacao is NOT psychoactive or impairing in any way, it can produce physiological effects such as lowering blood pressure and inducing stimulation. Participants with low blood pressure can be offered a smaller dose**

Ethical Influence: How to Inspire Commitment, with Christina Harbridge
2024-01-16 16:00 - 19:30
4:00 PM – 4:30 PM- Doors Open
4:30 PM – 6:30 PM- Interactive Seminar with Christina Harbridge
6:30 PM- Cocktail Hour & Networking

We’ve all seen people’s attitude and effectiveness improve when they’re enthusiastic about the vision rather than just compliant with our requests. But how do we, as founders and entrepreneurs, build enthusiasm and share our vision? In many circumstances, the management communication styles we’ve learned over the years take significant effort, but don’t resonate with our team.
There’s something we’re ignoring that’s driving behavior more than skill, facts, or emotion: Commitment.
In this highly interactive session*, you’ll experience the fulfilling feeling of learning how to get the outcome you want, without over-taxing yourself mentally.
Christina Harbridge will help us shift our behavior, and practice what we learn (without dreaded fake role-play).
This interactive workshop will help you:
Unlock the secrets behind human behavior and commitment
Acquire practical tools to foster a more committed and motivated team
Practice these practical tools in a safe and collaborative environment so you can communicate with confidence
Christina has partnered with neurobiologists, behavioral scientists, data scientists, physicians, and artists to apply rigor to behavioral data, making it practical and usable. These tested methods are steeped in human physiology, not psychology. Christina’s intellectual property comes from decades of influencing stakeholders in complicated, often high-stakes situations with competing priorities.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to gain valuable knowledge and skills that can transform the way you lead and collaborate with your team.

* You’ll receive a survey before the event

More than a film festival, Wild and Scenic is a great place to meet diverse, yet like-minded people. Folks who attend WSFF tend to be outdoor-oriented and care about the environment, sustainable agriculture, eco-tourism, and public lands. All of which have never been more relevant, nor more important. So purchase your ticket today, as space is limited!
Event begins at 5:00 pm with a casual meet, greet, and eat, with a raffle to follow (food truck available at 4:30). At 6:00, we’ll gather for a brief welcome and introduction, and at 6:30, the first of our film selections will commence!
