Exposure to music and vocal styles of all types, ranging from standards to jazz to folk/traditional to blues, and to the music of Great Britain, the Appalachian Mountains of Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, and North Carolina, have influenced my sound and led me to describe my music as "eclectic acoustic." I have opened for Christine Lavin and Dave Cousins and performed in Showcases and the Open Mic Finals at the Towne Crier Cafe in Pawling, NY, and appeared in venues in the Hudson Valley and Southwestern CT. I perform a good mix of songs, including my own compositions, covers, and traditional music. I like to tell the stories of the traditional songs I sing and might focus on the song's provenance, themes, imagery, history, depiction of characters, etc. Listeners tell me that they enjoy learning about this traditional music.

Friday 8:30 pm	NEW RIDERS OF THE PURPLE SAGE, guest Prof. "Louie" Rock (classic)	Towne Crier Cafe 130 Route 22 Pawling, NY   See Map
	The New Riders Of The Purple Sage, signed to Columbia Records by Clive Davis, released its eponymous first album in September 1971 to widespread acclaim. In the next 11 years the band toured and released over 12 albums, selling over 4 million records. NRPS began as a part-time spin-off from the Grateful Dead when Jerry Garcia (pedal steel guitar), Phil Lesh (bass) and Mickey Hart (drums) teamed up with John Dawson (guitar, vocals) and David Nelson (guitar). Although early live appearances were viewed as an informal warm-up to the main attraction, the group quickly established an independent identity through the strength of Dawson's original songs. By 1970 Dave Torbert had replaced Lesh, and Spencer Dryden, formerly of Jefferson Airplane, had joined as the group's permanent drummer. Garcia remained in both The Dead and The New Riders until he found himself over-committed, at which time Buddy Cage replaced him, and the classic NRPS lineup was born.

Friday 9:30 pm to 1:30 am	Reddan Brothers Band Rock (classic), Rock (modern), and Roots Music	The National Hotel 73 Clinton Street Montgomery, NY   See Map
	The Reddan Brothers are a hard hitting blues/rock trio with the miles to back it. The Reddan Brothers grew up backing legends of blues and rock such as Bill Perry, Popa Chubby and Jimmy Vivino. With their newly released CD “Skeleton Key Sessions” those road miles seem to be put to good use. The group has been seen on such high profile gigs as Levon Helm’s Midnight Ramble, Winchester Blues House Festival and the Blues on the Bridge Festival. The youthful energy of the band mixed with seasoned playing makes them a must see trio. Directions
Friday 9:30 pm to 12:30 am	And now for something completely different with Comic Tales of Tragic Heartbreak R&B, Soul, Jazz, Lounge/Cabaret	12 Grapes Music & Wine Bar 12 North Division Street Peekskill, NY   See Map
	Think 60's Northern Soul, a little Burt Bacharach, a bit of free association, a dash of Bowie and James Brown, and you have "Comic Tales of Tragic Heartbreak". This piano-driven, soul-influenced band features an incredible live show with crazy energy, outrageous humor, and unbelievable originality. A "Performance-Art / Rock combo", with lead singer, songwriter, and trumpeter Robert Whaley dancing and jumping from stage to dance floor with unabashed abandon. Whaley previously fronted NYC rock legend, The Niagaras. With a penchant for interpretive dancing on tabletops and hilariously satirical rants on a broken childhood, Whaley electrified national audiences with appearances on Good Morning America, the O Network and Fox. With "Comic Tales of Tragic Heartbreak", this "screwball" band has managed to create a sound and show which is both timeless and cutting-edge. **$5 Entertainment Fee for all, including diners**
