 Performing at this wonderful Farmers Market (sponsored by "Music at the Mission") ...
“Uncommon Ground”, is a hot alternative bluegrass group that is on a mission to flex the boundaries of traditional music. They possess razor-sharp vocals, fiery instrumental abilities and a rapidly growing repertoire of well-crafted tunes. “Uncommon Ground” is schooled in tradition yet is able to stretch out in inspired improvisation. In short, “Uncommon Ground” is as fresh an addition to the bluegrass—make that, the music—scene as has come along in many a year.
“Uncommon Ground” draws on the talents of Michael Kobetitsch, Sara Della Posta and Wayne Fugate, all long-time veterans of the Bluegrass scene who have performed with a host of musical luminaries, along with Rachel Handman and Phil Helm, two principles in the Hudson Valley Philharmonic whose technical precision, fertile inventiveness, surprising touches and mastery of the Bluegrass genre, give the band a distinctive, signature voice.

She gave the music color, her harmonies and chording adding surprise to the performance." Acknowledged as a fine soloist, composer, and accompanist with such notable groups as the Billy Harper Quintet and the Erica Lindsay Quintet.

wrinkles of their own, using great, interweaving harmonies
and vocalization to produce a seamless sound. The duet
mixes well known hit cuts with original songs written by
Sylvester’s members, using an enthusiastic stage presence
to drive home a great show. And, remember, there's no cover charge. |

 Pete Best is famous as the original drummer for the most important group in the history of recorded music – The Beatles! He performed literally hundreds of shows with John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison for more than 2 years while they developed a fanatical following in Liverpool and in Hamburg. He was the drummer who performed on the group's first recording sessions in Germany, on the famous Decca Records sessions and was also the group's drummer when they met and auditioned in London for George Martin. Pete Best's place in the history of The Beatles' story cannot be diminished.
The Pete Best Band delivers the raw, thumping intensity of the Beatles' savage sound during the early sixties and the band is justifiably proud of their authentic sound and energy. John Lennon said "We were at our best when we were playing in the dance halls of Liverpool and Hamburg. The world never saw that." Don't miss it now!
Also, veteran bluesman Michael Packer and his band.

The magic of Red Molly likely stems from the richness and diversity of each member's "pre-Molly" experiences. Laurie (vocals, guitar, banjo) left a career in psychology to pursue music. She worked for several years as a backup singer, and also released two solo albums, These Old Clothes (1999) and The Things I Choose To Do (2004). Abbie (vocals, Dobro, guitar) studied classical flute as a child and directed/arranged a cappella music at Boston University. In 2004, she released her first solo album, My Craziest Dream, with her father (jazz pianist Herb Gardner), and is influenced by her mother’s longtime love of bluegrass music. In 2006, Abbie released a second solo album, Honey on My Grave. Carolann (vocals, guitar, bass, mandolin) spent several years as a professional theatre actor before releasing her solo album, Just Across the Water, in 2000. She went on to release two albums with power folk quartet CC Railroad, Smile Whatever (2001) and Black Horse Motel (2004). / Hope Machine opens the show (Hope Machine is Fred Gillen, Jr., Steve Kirkman, and Anthony da Costa).
