SUMMARY:Gillian Welch & David Rawlings
DESCRIPTION:A vital duo imbues their acoustic sound with power\, beauty\, and depth of feeling. \nThe rich and remarkable careers of Gillian Welch and David Rawlings have made them essential pillars of modern acoustic music. That widely acknowledged reality was reinforced when their most recent album\, Woodland\, won the 2025 Grammy Award for Best Folk Album. Welch describes the music of Woodland as “a swirl of contradictions\, emptiness\, fullness\, joy\, grief\, destruction\, permanence. Now.” The duo’s signature sound is tinged with lovely lyricism and emotional intensity.

Inspired by the life and courage of Seth Bailey\, this ride supports critical early-stage research that leads to life-saving breakthroughs. \nNow in its 22nd year\, the Courage Ride takes place on Saturday\, August 8\, starting and finishing at Big Grove Brewery & Taproom in Iowa City. Riders of all levels can choose from five scenic routes through the rolling countryside of eastern Iowa\, including the Amish communities near Hills and Kalona\, and extending to North English and Millersburg. A virtual ride option is also available. \nFounded in 2005 by Seth’s parents\, Jackie and Tom Bailey\, in partnership with Bicyclists of Iowa City (BIC)\, the event honors Seth’s legacy and brings together a passionate community committed to making a difference. \nMore than 350 cyclists are expected to participate.
