Acoustic Cafe Music Series
25 Fremont Ave
Park Ridge, NJ   See Map
Performing with John Walsh on guitar & Lincoln Scheleifer on bass. Special guest Marci Geller. Christopher Brown is not only a singer/songwriter, but an artist/illustrator who can capture a subject's essence through caricature. With a few strokes, he reveals hints of a character's nature or temperament, their mystery or charm. New York-based Brown does the same thing with lyric and melody, outlining and shading characters and moments, even yearnings and states of mind. His deep rumble of a voice can be as direct as an approaching train, yet is warm and forgiving.

Blues Buddha was a finalist for The NY Blues and Jazz Society IBC Battle of the Bands in 2010. The band includes Chip Lairson on guitar (who's performed with notable performers such as Dr. John, Maria Muldauer, Buddy Miles and more), Al Payson on bass (Grammy winner on his work with Jose Feliciano), Joe Piteo on drums and Pete Dehoff on keys.

THE CHANCE THEATER
6 CRANELL STREET
POUGHKEEPSIE, NY   See Map
Although a blur to some, the nineties will always be known as the decade the world became a smaller place. Cell phones, e-mail, and .com address were just a few of the things that changed the way we all live today. Along with this new “digital age” came a sincere, heart felt form of music from Seattle known as Grunge. Unlike their predecessors of the late 80’s, bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Rage Against The Machine, & Soundgarden began writing darker/ heavier music filled with angst and pain, an influence that can still be heard in many modern rock bands today. At the top of the list is Alice In Chains. Known for their patented harmony vocals, big guitars, and haunting melodies there is no band more qualified to represent this decade of lost souls.

The fact that they've ditched the guitar for the funky electric piano and organ playing of Mike Ventimiglia? The smooth get-you-off-your-feet grooves of Tommy Nagy and Trevor Coen? Who cares!
