SCW Pledge Drive

Sonoma County Wire needs your help to continue making content about the best county in America. Thank you all for watching and sharing the 40 clips that Hannah and I posted in 2014. We'd like to post another 40 videos in 2015, but we'll need your help to get there.

Making beautiful video content is time consuming and requires expensive equipment. If we can raise $12,000 we'll tell more stories about the diverse and historic region we call home.

Thank you so much for your support. Please like and share on facebook to help us spread the word.

Thanks for watching!

Triumph RRR on Highway 1




sonoma county wire features triumph rrr
If there is a single machine in Triumph’s range that defines its identity, the Speed Triple is it. The Speed Triple was also one of the original production streetfighters, at the edge of the trend of stripping faired sportbikes down to their elemental core.

sonoma county wire features triumph rrr pilot
Ride Nor Cal's Josh Poe explains the finer points of Triumph's RRR which is available for rent at Ride Nor Cal, located in Santa Rosa, California. 

The Speed-T’s chassis—supported by supple and beautifully controlled Öhlins suspension at each end (NIX30 fork and TTX36 shock), awesome ABS-assisted Brembo brakes, and Pirelli Super­corsa SP rubber—delivers sublime handling and stopping power and makes the bike just as at home on a racetrack as on the street.

ride nor cal sonoma county wire features triumph rrr
"The first Street Triple was an instant hit, an overnight classic. It was Triumph's best-selling bike over the past 5 years. While the Street Triple has lost a touch of that lofty magic, it is, undoubtedly, easier to hustle on twisty roads."

Benovia Knows Pinot



Mike Sullivan has lived in Sonoma County all of his life. He attended Fresno State, earning a degree in fermentation science. He has worked for several wineries in his 18 years in the wine business, most recently, Hartford Court.

At Hartford, he won many awards including being named “Wine Personality of the Year” by Robert Parker and “Winemaker of the Year” by Ronn Wiegand of the magazine Restaurant Wine. Mike won the sweepstakes award for both his Chardonnay and Pinot Noir at the Sonoma County Harvest Fair. He is the only winemaker ever to win the sweepstakes award for both a red and white wine. Robert Parker has said of Mike, “I’m a big fan of winemaker Mike Sullivan as he seems to have the brilliant ability to convert Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Zinfandel into wines of considerable character and individuality.”

Mike focuses on three important aspects of winemaking. First, he is very attentive to the terrior of each vineyard. He walks the vineyards on a weekly basis to understand all aspects of each vineyard's life cycle. He uses this knowledge to intensively farm each vineyard and produce the highest quality grape possible. Once these grapes are harvested he exercises extraordinary care in the winemaking process to allow the grapes to transform into the finest possible expression of wine.

Mike is married with two boys, a weimaraner and several cats. When not in the cellar, the vineyards or at home, Mike can be found on one of Sonoma County's many beautiful golf courses.

HANNAH - From Below, live at Jenner By the Sea




HANNAH performs live Jenner By the Sea
Echoing the sounds of the Nordic coast and urban dance halls, cinematic sonic bass producer/violinist HANNAH blends folk songs and improvised instrumental/vocal music with cutting edge electronic sounds, counting Massive Attack, Phaeleh, Trentemøller, and Ólafur Arnalds as influences in crafting her sound. The resulting sonic palate takes listeners on “a kind of mystical journey” (PopMatters), whose destination is a crossroads between classical and contemporary, organic and man-made, familiar and mysterious.

HANNAH is also deep in the yoga/music scene, and performs her original orchestral and intuitive scores at numerous yoga festivals and studios around the world, including US and Canadian Wanderlust Festivals, collaborating with lauded teachers Elena Brower, Seane Corn, Eoin Finn, Shiva Rea, Schuyler Grant, Aarona Pichinson, and many others.

HANNAH performs live Jenner By the Sea
She plays both an acoustic and a five-string electric violin, accompanied by her original electronic scores. HANNAH’s sound and performances meld and blur genres in relentlessly inventive ways, creating a riveting sonic experience that is undeniable in its sincerity and refreshing in its originality.

HANNAH performs live Jenner By the Sea
“Luminous frequencies and violin instrumentation tied with foreign Icelandic lyrical messages are found in her voice...” (AfroMonk) "It has the ability to seep into your soul in ways only orchestral and electronic music can.” (Infectious Magazine)



Featured here in the Sonoma County Wire, HANNAH performs, From Below, and is recorded live at, Jenner by The Sea, in Jenner, California. For more information visit, www.hannahthiem.com
