9:00 pm | PATTY LARKIN, with special guest PAT WICTOR
Singer-Songwriter | Towne Crier Cafe
130 Route 22
Pawling, NY See Map |
 A guitar focused singer-songwriter, Patty Larkin has immersed herself in a musical world that knows no borders. Her recent solo release, Red=Luck, showcases a world where the ancient strains of modal folk meet brooding ambient noise. It is a world where Middle-Eastern flavored melodies collide with R&B, where joyous pop and somber reflection, playful eroticism and naked soul searching entwine. Here Larkin has created a world beyond her guitar that springs from the imagination, each song part of a tightly written song cycle cinema verite of challenging times. Red=Luck is the supremely assured work of an artist who has caught a near perfect wave: an artist whose influence becomes clearer with each passing season. While Larkin's fine guitar work has been recognized by live audiences since her celebrated emergence on the acoustic music scene, her skills as a producer, soundscape artist and songwriter have garnered accolades from fans and critics alike (Billboard, Rolling Stone, etc).

Some of the acclaim that Albert has received includes winning two "Best of NYC Singer Songwriter" awards for 2003 and 2005 from U.M.O Music NYC as well as being asked to perform at the Songwriter's Hall of Fame.

Genetically Engineered for Your Listening Pleasure! If only Charles Darwin could see what's become of Modern Man - the highly evolved comedy troupe performing all those spiffy humorous tunes! It is now scientifically proven that David Buskin, Rob Carlson and George Wurzbach have joined forces to form the most musically hilarious collection of primates since the Three Stooges played the Hollywood Bowl (Larry Fine was quite the violin virtuoso you know). Modern Man is the next step in the evolution of comedy. Lampooning everything from the FBI to ESPN, with a few letters left over for anyone else who gets in the way, it's clear that these three sharp singer/songwriters don't just monkey around with music, they have a knack for comedy and are fine musicians with distinguished heredity. If there is anything to that survival of the fittest theory, Modern Man should be around for a long, long time. They are the missing link between you and your funny bone!

From coffeehouses to concert halls, festivals and beyond, John Hammond has spent forty years entertaining blues, folk and rock audiences around the world, performing intense solo-acoustic blues. A Grammy Award winner and four time nominee, Hammond is also a multiple W.C. Handy award winner who has shared the stage and/or recorded with many of the masters, including Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, John Lee Hooker and Howlin' Wolf. John has recorded over twenty five albums and his passionate commitment to traditional blues made him the natural choice to host the BRAVO TV special and Sony Home Video, The Search for Robert Johnson. His 2003 release, Ready For Love, was produced by David Hidalgo of Los Lobos and is the perfect follow up to Wicked Grin, the acclaimed album produced by longtime friend Tom Waits and featuring all Waits' songs. Ready For Love features John's road band including Augie Meyers, Stephen Hodges, Frank Carillo and Marty Ballou playing an exciting variety of tracks including songs by George Jones, Tom Waits, David Hidalgo, Jagger and Richards, Willie Dixon, and a rare original by John himself.
