with Baird Hersey
World. Overtone singing Choir | Open Sky Yoga Center
5 Arnold Park
Rochester, NY See Map |
“Unequaled bliss comes to the heart of the Yogi who hears the internal sound of the Nada”. -The Nada-Bindu Upanishad
By bringing our minds to single pointed attention on the internal sacred sound, we quiet the chatter of the mind and experience a deep feeling of comfort and contentment.
This meditation, based on the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, will be framed by mediations on the 4 levels of sound:
Vaikhari (external sounds)
Madhyama (mental sounds)
Pashyanti (visual sounds)
Para (Eternal sound)
The result will be to connect us with the Nada, the sound of the Universe, the sound of bliss.

 Julie Corbalis sings songs not only of her life, but in a small part, yours, too. The relateability of these songs keeps her fan base coming back again and again. You get the sense when you listen to her that this is "a woman who has lived hard, loved hard, fallen hard and has picked herself up to do it again, regretting nothing." In her first solo effort, "Old Flames and New Names," Jules pours out her heart about past loves and "family stuff" and what results is a soulful collection of songs you'll be nursing your next broken heart to.
Jules says her influences include bands like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and The Black Crowes as well as solo artists like Sheryl Crow. She'll be playing originals as well as some pop/rock covers. Join us for another entertaining Singer/Songwriter Sunday.

 “Rebecca Martin’s vocals are like Modigliani portraits. They share a sharply honed, less-is-more sensibility that, paradoxically, adds to their depth, their denseness and their haunting aftereffects”, says ”Jazz Times” magazine. "All About Jazz" calls Rebecca "a composer of considerable talent, approaching the repertoire that she serves up like a a mater-chef, creating rare and fine epicurean fare....this is gripping music from a star whose time has come”.
Accompanying Rebecca will be bassist Larry Grenadier.
"On The Wings of Love" will also be featuring bluesman Big Joe Fitz & "The Lo-Fi's", a set of Cajun music with "Cleoma's Ghost", and jazz standards performed by vocalist Bill Bannan accompanied by jazz guitarist Mark Dzuiba & bassist Robert Bard.

 John is a founding member of the legendary Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and still tours with them (40+ years!) - playing the whole "round trip" from folk to rock to country. The NGDB made over 24 albums, including the platinum-selling Will The Circle Be Unbroken, an integral part of Americana history and indisputably "one of the most important recordings ever come out of Nashville." -Rolling Stone :|: McEuen also takes his talents around the country in his solo shows and special concerts when the Dirt Band is not performing, incorporating his vintage instruments (banjo, fiddle, guitar and mandolin) with instrumental wizardry that keeps the audience entranced. His love for the history of acoustic music and his joy at being onstage is evident to all those who see him and hear him!

Here's what we've heard;
Studio Stu, with his state-of-the-art Studivarious single string bass, unique Brooklyn humor, and unusual, hypnotic vocals, is a master...a one string wonder, combining a traditional folk instrument and a classic jazz form, to create a third thing (one we haven’t quite figured out what to call yet).....fearless in delivery and willing to navigate uncharted paths through the improvisational wilderness; he is ‘el ultimo hombre del lounge’.
Studio Stu takes the very best in classic jazz, pop, and originals, and twists and bends them into what he calls ‘evocative jazz & exotic lounge’. He starts with standard tunes and a loop machine, except, nothing is sacred.....improv is rampant...lyrics are changed at will...

Dog on Fleas is celebrating their 10th year making intelligent, gutsy music for young ones (and old ones) with a greatest hits CD, The Bestest of the Best. The Fleas have recorded 5 critically acclaimed CDs in these 10 years.
The idea for this album came about because the first two Dog on Fleas CDs, fairly good songs for fairly good kids and Hoi Polloi have been taken out of print. As much as we loved some of the songs and performances on those records, they made us cringe just a little too much. But in the Bestest of the Best there are some good ones from those CDs, some more from the other CDs, and a couple of re-recorded songs. Plus a few surprises.
“In a more perfect world, Dog on Fleas would be among the best-known names in music for families….…Like all great bands for kids, the music of Dog on Fleas works for all ages. When this outstanding band takes its place among the great n |

The music and lyrics tell stories, often describing personal experiences, and reviewers have described them as "personal, yet universal in scope, poignant and heartfelt."

with The Paul Miller Quartet

Main Street
Chatham, NY See Map |
 The PMQ continue their journey to the center of the universe, which, they've been told, is somewhere approximately midway between the brainstem of the soloist and the punch line of the last joke the listener heard. How would you like to hear a band transition from Miles Davis to the Ventures, into an original song that Lou Christie would probably love, then into Thelonius Monk and finally landing in a dirty low down hyperfunk jam full of melodic material straight from a 50s TV series set against a Prell jingle from 1963? You would? Well you have some STRANGE musical preferences, and the PMQ is just the band for you. They play what is called SNARF. What's that? You never heard SNARF?? Here's your chance. Grab it! You won't be disappointed! You have Paul Miller's solemn word for it! He's honest as the day is wide, not too consistent as far as showing up for gigs, but that's a good thing! His playing sucks! The other 3 are great, and they just don't want to change their name! |
