Mike & Jimmy were founding members of the Crowmatix (& before that: The Crows). They've toured & recorded with The Band and many others. This should be one for the archives! Jimmy sez,"Mikey, the the crazy record collector/musicoligist, has turned me on to so many significant tracks I would never have heard otherwise that has positively profoundly affected my life! C'mon out & hear us do tunes by Mr Bear, Wynonie Harris, Smiley Lewis & a host of other artists deserving of a wider audience!" The more you drink - the better we sound, so, toward that end, your Uncle Willy will be tending the Beer Garden! |

 The Clancy Tradition's origins are found in Ireland in the 1950s when the Clancy family of Moy, County Tyrone formed a Ceili Band, playing at Irish country dances and concerts throughout Ireland. In 1960, brothers Pat, Eugene and Brendan Clancy left to tour the United States as the Irish Ramblers, playing at clubs like Gerde's Folk City & Carnegie Hall(!), and recording The Patriot Game for Electra. Their musical tradition is currently being passed to the next generation with The Clancy Tradition: Eugene on guitar & vocals, daughter Rosemary Clancy on fiddle & mandolin, son John Clancy on bass, Pat on piano & accordion and daughter Liadain Clancy singing. We are honored that they chose the Towne Crier Cafe's stage to perform & record for their live album.

Acoustic, Alternative. Protest Song | The Colony Cafe
22 Rock City Road
Woodstock, NY See Map |
Join us for the 3rd annual Woodstock celebration of the protest song's grandest voice---Phil Ochs. Performers will offer some of Ochs greatest songs as well as some original pieces inspired by him. In addition to the musicians, poet Marina Mati will recite and the Woodstock Women in Black will speak. This year's Phil Fest will be dedicated to our lost sister Jane Van de Bogart, a stalwarth activist in Woodstock and the surrounding area and the founder of Woodstock Women in Black.
Phil Ochs was a powerful singer who offered a musical voice to the civil rights, anti-war and labor movements of the 1960s and early 70s. His presence at such important events as the miners' labor battles in Kentucky, the Freedom Rides to the deep south and the 1968 Chicago Democratic Convention brought him to the heart of the struggle. He was a champion of social justice. The Woodstock Phil Fest recalls and celebrates Ochs' music and activism. Host: John Pietaro, musician and labor organizer.

Acoustic, Americana | Towne Crier Cafe
130 Route 22
Pawling, NY See Map |
 Although Leon Redbone's iconic guise of white fedora, jacket and dark sunglasses has been thoroughly satirized, it's easy to overlook what a genuinely gifted artist he remains. His love affair with tunes from the turn-of-the-19th/20th-century, flapper-era radio ditties, depression-spawned ragtime and WWII folk-jazz is as contagious as a good giggle. Opportunities for this unlikely figure to impose himself on pop culture have been plentiful: his network debut on Saturday Night Live in 1976, making him a cult classic; the wise, animated snowman in Elf (his duet on Baby, It's Cold Outside served as the picture's theme song); TV title tunes to Mr Belvedere and Harry & The Hendersons; the homespun beer jingle This Bud's for You; the Getting To Know You voice on a series of Chevrolet ads; etc. It's easy to get lost in his stage exploits, and overlook what a truly fine player he is -- fingerpicking with a ragtime bounce or jumping between chords with the grace of a card sharp.

| Best friends and music lovers, Split the Bill's close harmonies reflect Myra and Elisa's intense connection and devotion to their craft. Compared most often to the Indigo Girls, they also display an urban, edgy sensbillity that can morph into a mountain influenced "high lonesome" sound with equal parts of The Band and the Stanley Brothers. |

 Antje Duvekot is a German-born, American-raised singer-songwriter who has risen to the top of the competitive Boston singer-songwriter scene, and is now attracting national attention, including XM and Sirius satellite radio, Fox, ABC, NECN TV, and National Public Radio. "...terrific writer and singer, with the instincts to do things right, over and over and over." -Dave Marsh, Rolling Stone; "When I first heard Antje I knew I was witnessing something very special. She creates an entire, detailed world in verse, and takes you there with beautiful and understated melody. Her songs are stunning paintings of color and shade and always generate the heat and light that real art should." -Neil Dorfsman, producer of Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Sting, Dire Straits
Natalia Zukerman has a sound that's strong, yet delicate, gentle yet insistent. Call it folk if you want, but there's jazz in it, too ...and blues ...and a soulful something-or-other that you can't quite put into words.

Impossible to categorize as a player, Adrian Legg incorporates virtually every genre on his guitar in a virtuosic instrumental style with effects. He brought electric approaches to acoustic playing, creating a modern cross-over amalgamation in the tradition of eclectic folk playing that goes back to the 1960s." - Guitar by Richard Chapman, 2000
