	Not just another benefit, but an opportunity to give back to one of Woodstock’s most benevolent of souls. Everybody knows Mike Esposito’s story: Rock Star to Priest to Bicycle Guru, Painter. What we, the friends of Michael Esposito, have just learned, is that he may be losing his shirt. He and his friend, Lou, need to prevent foreclosure on their house, so we’re organizing this benefit to remedy the situation. We’re hosting some of the area’s favorite musicians: special guests and gurus. Art, musical instruments, memorabilia and brand-spankin’ new stuff will be for sale. There’s a chance to win Mike’s “God’s Eye Cloud Bank.” We’re suggesting a $20 donation. Expect the unexpected ~ all of it good! If you cannot attend but would like to donate, please send checks to: Mike Esposito P.O. Box 121 Woodstock, NY 12498 More information: Call 845.679.4024 or 4012. Thanks! Alchemy of Woodstock

And, furthermore, they (uh... the folks who run the farm) have given yours truly the honor of providing the soundtrack for the day. Well, for both days, in fact.

	One day back in 1970, 20-year-old Rick Estrin had the opportunity to play harmonica with Muddy Waters and his band in Chicago's South Side. During the break, Muddy called Estrin over, shook his finger in his face, and shouted "You outta sight boy! You play like a MAN boy! You got that sound boy, I KNOW that sound when I hear it, that's MY sound!" Today, singer/harmonica player/songwriter Rick Estrin ranks among the very best harp players in the blues world. His work on the reeds is at once deep in the tradition of harmonica masters Sonny Boy Williamson II & Little Walter Jacobs, while at the same time pushing that tradition forward. For more than 30 years, Rick fronted Little Charlie & The Nightcats, featuring guitarist Little Charlie Baty. But now, with Baty's recent retirement from touring, Estrin has full center spotlight with the Nightcats. Rick Estrin & The Nightcats' sound, while still swinging the blues, is a harmonica-driven, rocking, guitar-fueled rave-up. More info at the Towne Crier Cafe

Sunday 7:00 pm	Emerging Artists @ Alchemy with Andi Rae Healey Americana, Singer-Songwriter	Alchemy of Woodstock 297 Tinker Street Woodstock, NY   See Map
	She's been described as what Fiona Apple would have been had she grown up in the south and been given a guitar instead of a piano. Her bluesy Americana sound is both original and radio-friendly. No matter what you're in the mood for, Andi Rae is sure to satisfy. Andi Rae is often asked how such a big voice comes out of such a little girl. Katie Agresta, her voice teacher and (coincidentally Ms. Lauper's teacher as well), has been helpful in that department. Katie is also the teacher to the likes of Jon Bon Jovi and Annie Lennox. But also, Andi says, "Just because I'm small doesn't mean I don't have a whole lot to say, and a lot of passion to say it with." Take a listen to one of her newest songs, "Ooh Ah," and you will know this is true. You can find "Ooh Ah," a mixture of other gut-wrenching and inspiring songs, and Andi's powerful, sultry voice on "I Guess I Am a Sinner." Alchemy of Woodstock
