With the help of her Nashville-based record label, Compass Records, she selected a few of Nashville’s best musicians to make an album featuring fiddle, mandolin and banjo as well as acoustic guitar. Opening the evening will be Susan Kane, a singer songwriter based in northern Westchester, NY.

The positive, adventurous friendship built up between the 5 and their peers fuels their in-your-face, energetic live set. When it comes to writing music, each member brings a wide variety of ideas to the table to set the exact mood with the sounds they create.

"New York Boss Guitar Man" Dave Fields is a "genre busting" guitarist whose performances are always electrifying, awe-inspiring and intensely passionate. Dave has worked with many musical legends including Aretha Franklin, Lenny Kravitz, Sean Lennon, The Drifters and Tommy James.

Tonight, we're pleased to welcome back Dave and his special guest, JT Lauritsen, a Blues artist from Norway whose band, JT Lauritsen and the Buckshot Hunters, perform around the globe. Last year, JT and Dave performed at the Ground Zero Blues Club in Memphis. The Blues harp and accordion (his "squeezebox") are JT's signature sound. Add that to the virtuoso guitar playing of Dave Fields and you're in for one sweet night of Blues.

Last time out, these guys drove the audience wild. Be sure to check out the incredible chemistry and musicality of this dynamic band.

BIG "FRANK MIRRA " & THE HEALERS, AND PERFORMING AT BRIAN'S BACKYARD BBQ
Blues
Brian's Backyard BBQ
1665 RTE 211 EAST
Middletown, NY   See Map
HERE'S WHAT IS BEING SAID ABOUT BIG FRANK & THE HEALERS: “…No-nonsense, straight-ahead Chicago blues… Mirra’s guitar playing–especially his wicked slide work–propels all the tracks…“Vintage 1040” is a real find.”–Bill Wasserzieher, Blues Revue

“Big Frank and the Healers have built quite a following since their formation in 1994. Mixing Chicago Blues with the sounds of the Delta, Big Frank Mirra plays some nasty slide guitar and contributes soulful vocals that fit both styles well. The band has previously recorded an EP, but are renowned for their live shows…The band plays with that chemistry and quality that demonstrates they had many live performances together…This is a fine addition to any blues fan’s collection, especially if you like slide guitar and Chicago Blues.”–Graham Clarke, BluesBytes
