To celebrate Woodstock’s 50th anniversary, join us for three more days of peace, love and music on the big screen at Toronto’s Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema, from August 16-18.

On August 18, 1969, over a million young people descended on Max Yasgur’s farm in Woodstock, New York. What was meant to be a simple concert became the defining event of a generation—and an everlasting symbol of the power of the collective human spirit.

Take a trip back in time with Jimi, Janis, The Dead, David Crosby, The Band, Arlo Guthrie, and the many artists that provided the soundtrack to a festival that proved that, even in the most tumultuous of times, people can tune in, turn on, drop out, and come together for a shared experience not soon to be forgotten.

Imagine Documentaries Announces Louis Armstrong Documentary

Imagine Documentaries President, Justin Wilkes, announced today that the company has reached an exclusive deal with the Louis Armstrong Educational Foundation to produce the definitive documentary on Jazz legend and beloved entertainer, Louis Armstrong. The deal comes with access to hundreds of hours of audio recordings, film footage, photographs, personal diaries and a life’s worth of ephemera for exclusive use in the first significant documentary dedicated entirely to his life. In addition to Louis’ prolific music and film career, Louis was an avid biographer and kept an almost daily audio diary from the early 1950’s until the day he passed in 1971, all on reel-to-reel tape recordings and all organized meticulously “for posterity” by “Pops” himself.

Widely known as the Promethean genius of modern American music teaching the world the language of jazz as its greatest singer and instrumentalist, Louis was an imaginative, insightful and industrious artist and entertainer of such depth and irresistible magnetism that he charted a number one record in 1964 (knocking The Beatles off the top of the charts), forty-one years after his groundbreaking recordings with his mentor Joe “King” Oliver. Offstage he was witty, introspective, and extremely complex. Louis was a beloved colleague and the definition of down-home but when crossed he could reveal an explosive temper. His larger-than-life and conventionally softened stage personality was much tougher and sharp-edged than his worshipping fans ever knew.

Production is scheduled to commence this fall. Over the last year, Imagine Documentaries’ has amassed a growing slate of productions which also includes the Bryce Dallas Howard documentary DADS, the Ron Howard directed documentary Rebuilding Paradise for National Geographic Documentary Films, a documentary about 13-time NBA All-Star Dwyane Wade for ESPN Films, Once Were Brothers: Robbie Robertson and The Band which is premiering as the opening night film at this year’s Toronto Film Festival, and the docu-series She The People with Sarah Jones, for CNN. The division recently teamed up with Apple to produce a slate of feature documentaries and docuseries, under an exclusive, first-look deal.

Imagine Documentaries was formed in 2018 by Imagine Entertainment Chairmen Brian Grazer and Ron Howard with a focus on developing and producing premium feature documentaries and non-scripted television. Based out of New York, Imagine Docs is run by Academy Award-nominated and multiple Emmy and Peabody Award-winning producers Justin Wilkes and Sara Bernstein.

The division expands on Imagine’s rich history in the documentary space which includes the hit National Geographic hybrid documentary series Mars, and Breakthrough as well as The Beatles: Eight Days a Week – The Touring Years which won the 2017 Grammy for Best Music Film, Jay Z’s Made in America, Prophet’s Prey, Katy Perry: Part of Me, Inside Deep Throat, and Beyond The Mat in the film space. Imagine Documentaries is currently producing the Ron Howard-directed film Rebuilding Paradise, which follows the Paradise, CA wildfires that most recently ravaged a community; Sound & Vision, the anthology docuseries with Rolling Stone Magazine; the docuseries She The People with Tony Award-winner Sarah Jones; the documentary DADS, with Bryce Dallas Howard directing; the Dwyane Wade documentary, This Is Brighton, a feature documentary about 14 year old Brighton Zeuner, the youngest-ever X Games gold medalist, and her journey to the 2020 Olympics; and Once Were Brothers: Robbie Robertson and the Band, a film executive produced by Martin Scorsese chronicling musician Robbie Robertson’s meteoric rise and the story behind The Band. Imagine also produced the Ron Howard directed Pavarotti about opera great Luciano Pavarotti, currently in theaters worldwide.

The Louis Armstrong Educational Foundation, Inc. was founded and funded by Louis Armstrong in 1969 and is celebrating its 50th Anniversary this year. The foundation was created to give back to the world “some of the goodness he received.” The Foundation is dedicated to perpetuating the legacies of Louis and Lucille Armstrong throughout the world to include fostering jazz music programs, performance training, workshops and lectures on the history of jazz. LAEF is a living legacy to “Satchmo” Louis Armstrong, the most important creative force in the early development and perpetuation of America’s music, Jazz. His influence, as an artist and cultural icon, is universal, unmatched, and very much alive today. The organization is managed by a 16-member Board of Trustees, Stanley Crouch is the Board President. Louis Armstrong was born in the Storyville district of New Orleans on August 4, 1901 – he settled in Corona Queens (New York) with his 3rd wife, Lucille. Through the years, Louis traveled the world as America’s “Jazz Ambassador,” entertaining millions, from heads of state and royalty to the kids on his stoop in Corona. Despite his fame, he remained a humble man and lived a simple life in a working-class neighborhood. To this day, everyone loves Louis Armstrong-just the mention of his name makes people smile!

Latin Rock Icons Maná Confirm U.S. Dates For ‘Rayando El Sol Tour’

The biggest rock band in Spanish, Maná, announced their return to the road on Premio Lo Nuestro. Today “the most widely sold and heard Latin band in the world” (Billboard) confirmed details of their headlining ‘Rayando El Sol Tour’ across the United States. The tour is named after their critically acclaimed single, “Rayando El Sol,” which was one of the band’s first great successes and the kick off to a remarkable career including 4 Grammy Awards, 8 Latin Grammy Awards, 19 Billboard Latin Music Awards and dozens more around the world.

Produced by Live Nation, the tour will make over 20 stops across the U.S., kicking off September 4th in Corpus Christi, TX with visits to Houston, San Diego, Brooklyn and more, before wrapping November 27th in Sacramento, CA. The U.S. outing will also include an astonishing 4 nights at The Forum in Los Angeles, CA between September and November, making history as the largest run of dates at The Forum for any Latin act in history. See full itinerary below.

Tickets go on sale to the general public beginning Friday, March 1st at 11am local time at LiveNation.com. Maná will also offer VIP packages for each show with options that include; premium seating, an invitation to Maná’s VIP pre-show lounge, the opportunity to sit at Alex’s drum kit for a memorable photo, and much more!

It has been three years since the multi-platinum selling and Grammy Award®-winning rock band last toured. As Latin Rock’s most engaging arena-level live band, longtime cultural ambassadors and powerful social advocates, their previous ‘LATINO POWER TOUR’ sold out venues across the U.S. with a message of unity and empowerment for U.S. Latinos. It featured 80 tons of state of the art concert production gear which traveled across the United States with the goal of uniting and inspiring Latino communities to make their voices heard.

Having formed in Guadalajara, Mexico in 1986, the quartet of Fher Olvera, Alex González, Sergio Vallín and Juan Calleros have gone on to be global envoys for the Latin Rock genre, while selling over 40 million albums. Here in the United States, Maná holds an impressive nine #1 albums and ten #1 singles -more than any other band in the history of Billboard’s “Hot Latin Songs” chart. Maná is also unquestionably the top-drawing all-Spanish language concert band in the U.S. with notable attendance records to their name, and the New York Times declaring the group has: “Redefined ‘Crossover’ in Latin Pop… with its mix of love songs and more pointed political material about immigration and the environment, …Maná has a mass appeal nearly unrivaled in the Latin pop world.”

It’s an all-too-familiar scenario when you come home after a long day’s work, and you still have to exert brainpower into planning your dinner. Fortunately, there’s frozen food to save your day.

This type of meal is intended to be a quick and easy way for people to get nourishment. You just pop it in the microwave, wait for a few minutes, and enjoy a satisfying dinner without further tiring yourself.

Frozen food meals are processed to have a longer shelf life. While people prefer fresh offerings, it’s still undeniable that frozen food will continue to be a household staple in today’s bustling world. Not to worry, though, since a lot of emerging frozen food trends are healthier without compromising convenience.

Here are a few frozen food trends you should watch out for:

Cauliflower Rice

Cauliflower has become one of the favorite veggies of health enthusiasts because it’s the perfect alternative to traditional white rice. It’s low-carb but packed with nutrients, fiber, and antioxidants. A lot of brands are expected to join the bandwagon, given the vegetable’s ever-rising popularity.

Business owners can turn to companies like Frozen Food Trends – Magid that offer consulting services on where the industry is going regarding this meal type. They also provide research and analytics for factual data on how to improve sales.

These are the best dishes that go well with cauliflower rice:

Chinese-Style Ribs – The mild taste of cauliflower rice is the perfect balance to this flavorful dish with hoisin sauce, marmalade, sherry, and pie spice.
Garlic Chicken and Broccoli – This healthy meal can be made in advance and kept in the freezer along with your cauliflower rice.
Creamy Paprika Pork – This paprika-infused dish can add a spicy punch to your frozen meal.
Honey Buffalo Meatballs – If you prefer something sweet and salty, you’ll enjoy these meatballs covered in honey buffalo sauce.
Thai Coconut Beef – For a creamy base, this Thai coconut beef dish can be left in the slow cooker and ready for you by the time you get home.

Veggie Patties

If you’re vegan, vegetarian, or an advocate of the meatless Mondays campaign, you’ll be glad to know that you’ll increasingly see more veggie patty choices in the frozen food aisle. Most meatless burger patties are made from beans, tofu, nuts, grains, and mushrooms, which are all healthy alternatives to pork, beef, or chicken.

Microwavable Quinoa

Quinoa is another superfood that’s become a favorite of people on a low-carb diet. It’s a grain crop that was famous in South America, with the Incas referring to it as the “mother of all grains.” It comes in three types: white, red, and black, and has very high fiber content. Plus, it’s also perfect for people with gluten intolerance and those looking for a healthy protein and amino acid source.

There are microwavable quinoa options already on the market today. You can look forward to more choices soon.

Quinoa contains a substantial amount of these vitamins and minerals:

Manganese – This mineral boosts your metabolism, growth, and development.
Phosphorous – You need phosphorous to have healthy bones and maintain the health of your body tissues.
Copper – It’s the main mineral to uphold your heart health.
Folate – Folate intake is particularly essential for pregnant women. It facilitates cell function and tissue growth.
Iron – Iron is primarily significant for transporting oxygen in red blood cells.
Magnesium – It can help you fight against type 2 diabetes by reducing insulin resistance.
Zinc – Zinc is crucial for wound healing as well as for keeping your sense of taste and smell functioning well.

Frozen Berries

Frozen berries, such as blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries, will continue to be a popular frozen food item because they’re inexpensive and remain unaffected by the season. Moreover, these fruits retain their nutritional benefits even when stored in freezing temperatures. They’re excellent additions to your smoothies for times when breakfast seems impossible.

Frozen Breakfast

While frozen food is commonly heated for dinner purposes, there’s also breakfast options that you can buy when you need to rush out the door in the mornings quickly. There are different variations of waffles available in the market today, such as blueberry and grain. You can also buy breakfast burritos and pizzas.

Conclusion

Frozen food meals won’t be going away any time soon because of the convenience they offer. Food companies should take advantage of the many opportunities that this industry provides by looking for healthier alternatives to traditional options and move toward making fresh vegetables and fruits more accessible to everyone.
