Towne Crier Cafe
130 Route 22
Pawling, NY   See Map
40th anniversary of Woodstock!

Richie Havens is gifted with one of the most recognizable voices in popular folk music. His fiery, poignant, always soulful singing style has remained unique and ageless since he first emerged from the Greenwich Village folk scene in the early 1960s. It's a voice that has inspired and electrified audiences from the Woodstock Music & Arts Fair in 1969 to the Clinton Presidential Inauguration in 1993, and coming full circle with the 30th Woodstock Anniversary celebration in 1999, "A Day In The Garden." Havens is as vibrant and dynamic today as he was in the Woodstock documentary, in his familiar improvisational performance of "Freedom" (based on the old spiritual, "Motherless Child"). His concerts continue to inspire as well as entertain, and it is an honor, as always, to present him at the Towne Crier Cafe.

Ramblin’ Jack Elliott will play the Colony Cafe on Friday, August 21, at 8 p.m. Tickets are $21 (which includes a $1 service fee) and are available at the Woodstock Music Shop, located just two doors down from the Colony on Rock City Road. Call the shop at (845) 679-3224 for more information.

Brooklyn-born Ramblin’ Jack Elliott is widely recognized as one of the most influential artists in folk music. At a young age – and against his parents’ wishes – he taught himself how to play guitar and eventually met, and moved in with, Woody Guthrie. Guthrie provided guidance, giving Elliott the boost he needed to advance his career. He has recorded over a dozen albums and his “South Coast” in 1995 earned him his first Grammy award. Over the years, Elliott has worked with Phil Ochs, Bob Dylan, Pete Seeger, Jerry Garcia and The Grateful Dead, Derroll Adams, plus many more. And members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers sang backup on his 2006 album, “I Stand Alone.”

Shawn Colvin invited Vance to be a special guest on her Fat City tour, and Vance took audiences across the country by storm: "With the voice of an angel, the wit of a devil, and the guitar playing of a god, it was enough to earn him that rarity: an encore for an opener" wrote the Fort Worth Star-Telegram in its review of a show from that tour.

Lisa Frieder (pictured here) is an amazing artist. Her lyrics are filled with emotion, and the more we get to know her songs, the more we love them. Keep an eye out for Lisa, she's going to be famous some day.

Drew Bordeaux is a talented vocalist and musician whose music comes from the heart. When he signs cover songs, you'd think they were his own. On occasion, Drew will treat us to his electric fiddle, for a unique sound that is truly inspirational.

Rich Kelly is a frequent performer at 12 Grapes, as a solo artist and also with his band The Track (with Drew Bordeaux), with the Geoff Hartwell Band and others. He has a way about him that draws you into each song.

Individually, these artists are amazing. Together, it will surely be a night to witness. Don't miss their electrifying performances.

Area music lovers are well acquainted with Veillette and Mitnick from their work with the Phantoms, Blind Mice and the JV Squad and will appreciate this rare opportunity to hear their original songs. $25 adults, $20 students & seniors, Festival Pass $75.
