Rock (classic). and Big Band to the max!
The Falcon
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY   See Map
Ed Palermo is not a “business as usual” musician. After all, when most people think of “big bands” they think of Duke and Dorsey. But go to see Ed Palermo’s Big Band and you might hear Zappa, Hendrix, the blues of Paul Butterfield & Mike Bloomfield or one of Ed’s own compositions, loaded with lush turns and unexpected twists. Gil Evans wonderfully articulated Palermo’s unusual approach to traditional instrumentation: Napoleon Murphy Brock- American singer, saxophonist and flute player, Napoleon Murphy Brock, is best known for his work with Frank Zappa in the 1970s, including the albums One Size Fits All, Roxy and Elsewhere, and Bongo Fury. His own most memorable vocal accomplishments are illustrated on the songs "Village of the Sun" and "Florentine Pogen." www.napoleonmbrock.com

Antje Duvekot, The Sea, The Sea (Chuck E. Costa and Mira Stanley)
Folk/Traditional, Acoustic, and Singer-Songwriter
Common Ground @ South Church
South Presbyterian Church, 343 Broadway
Dobbs Ferry, NY   See Map
No one writes quite like Antje Duvekot, who was influenced lyrically by the very greats — Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Paul Simon and Leonard Cohen, who are Mt. Rushmore-like figures to her. “Antje is the rare artist who can write about the social and the personal in the same breath,” says folk icon Ellis Paul. “Her voice has a sound of innocence and naivete which makes razor-sharp insights into the human condition.” And as Springsteen biographer Dave Marsh says, “Antje is the whole package.”

They meet in the middle with acoustic guitars. Standing next to other contemporary duos like The Weepies, The Civil Wars, The Swell Season, The Sea, The Sea is spare beauty, bravely unadorned. Or as the gifted singer-songwriter Amy Speace said about them “Two voices that blend like smoke and air. Like night and a whisper. Two distinct award-winning songwriters that meet in the mercury, collide and create emotionally spare music. Simple and true.”

Garland Jeffreys has been called an edgy urban poet, the sound of New York, a confessional singer-songwriter and an explorer of the links between rock, race and rebellion whose work should be taught in schools. With songs covered by artists as diverse as punk pioneers The Circle Jerks ("Wild in the Streets") and the neo-folk band Vetiver ("Lon Chaney"), Jeffreys is truly unclassifiable. Long known for his amazing roster of supporting musicians, such as Dr. John, Sonny Rollins, James Taylor, Linton Kwesi Johnson and Phoebe Snow, Garland's new, highly acclaimed The King Of In Between includes contributions from Duncan Sheik and old friend Lou Reed. It is the distillation of a long career dedicated to addressing socially conscious themes across a broad range of musical styles, and has been on a number of year-end best of lists including Rolling Stone, NPR Music, NY Daily News, Sound and Vision and MSN Music.

This is a special showcase for us, featuring winners of Young Artist Talent Search competitions we have hosted here at the Towne Crier Cafe. What is a "Showcase"? Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, Neil Young – even the greatest talents started somewhere. Sometimes it was at an open mic. And when they got good enough, they were invited to perform in a showcase with a few other talented artists. Our showcases, held on many Sunday nights, feature the best of local and regional talents. Yes, they are unknowns – for now. But they're good. For some, it's a launch pad to a great career. Somewhere, there are people who can say, "I saw Bob Dylan when he was just a kid starting out."

Introducing The D-Squared Blues Band. The Brainchild of guitarist Dave Heinlein and sax/harp player David Laks.

Together they make D to the second power thus D-Squared. This band is made up of Hudson Valley seasoned professionals who love the music they create. Based out of Woodstock, NY this music show offers a night of non-stop dancing to classic and original music in the blues and funk tradition.

Because the rhythm section is so paramount to this group they have two alternating powerhouse drummers, Larry Balestra and Ruperto Ifil along with percussionist Chester Pertchik. Additionally the amazing Michael Colletti is on Bass Dennis Yerry on keys, and the one and only “Sultan of Sonic Soul”, Gus Mancini, who plays both saxophone and the WX5 Wind Synthesizer.

Dave Kearney was a founding member of “Reed Street,” opening for national acts including The Hollies, Ted Nugent, the Amboy Dukes, Steppenwolf, Seals and Croft, and Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels. Then in 1971 he formed the alt-country band “Backslider.” This group played concerts, clubs and festivals from Delaware to Key West, opening for John Prine, Pure Prairie League, Asleep at the Wheel, and Ronnie Milsap. In both of these bands, Dave was the primary songwriter. Elly Wininger has been called everything from a ‘folk-blues legend’ to a ‘musical explosion.’ Getting her start in the folk revival scene of the 60’s & 70’s, Elly was a guitar student of David Bromberg. She is an award-winning songwriter and has been writing songs and picking guitar in clubs, coffeehouses and concert halls, while producing and hosting radio shows, and teaching songwriting to kids and adults of all abilities.

Marlboro, NY   See Map
The Trapps are an American band tapping the roots of Americana, Folk and Rock and Roll with a strong emphasis on "the song" and lyrical fiber. All at once they grab you with powerful harmonies like the Jayhawks or rivet you with a high intensity jam like the Black Crowes, but for this band, it is never done loosely or in a way that pulls the listener away from the essence and presentation of the song itself. Full of risk and heart, they weave universal themes into a musical fabric that is entirely original yet feels like you have known the sound your entire life.

Jason Fine, Executive Editor, of Rolling Stone Magazine, says The Trapps are “Elegant yet raw, darkly emotional but shot through with light…rangy experimental roots rock played with confidence and hope.” Johnny Black, Music Director, High Plains Public Radio, Amarillo, TX says The Trapps are “An indie “roots” Americana act with raw, stark, honest-to-Hank emotional intensity and musical ability.”

The 1st Thursday of each month, join saxman and vocalist JP Patrick and his band as they rehearse, work, and play for each other, and for you. "Sessions" gives audience members an up-close-and personal view of what it takes to put together a live performance. You'll enjoy this intimate look at how musicians do what they love to do best: "play".

JP has been on the Blues music scene for years, and is a tremendously talented front-man, vocalist and songwriter. He plays Blues harp and alto sax, and always performs with passion and energy. His audiences feel it... and love it. His original songs are full of wit and charm. Songs like "Simple Request (Stop Breaking My Balls)" and "Shy of Indigo" showcase his talents as a funky Blues musician who's taking his art to the next level.

Every installment of "Sessions" is unique, as JP often invites different musicians to sit in and perform. Nights with JP and his band are always super-fun!
