Friday 5:30 pm to 10:00 pm | Johnny A | The FALCON 1348 Route 9W Marlboro, NY See Map |
Johnny A. has one of the most eloquent voices in modern music - and he doesn't sing a note. Instead, he channels joy, love, humor, sadness... every aspect of the human experience, through his guitar. Only the finest musicians have the ability to capture the nuances of life in sound, which puts Johnny in a very exclusive group of six-stringers that includes Les Paul, Wes Montgomery, Jeff Beck, Chet Atkins, and Jimi Hendrix. The secret is his blend of melody, sonic definition, technique and that indefinable-yet-tangible quality called "soul." And he's eloquently shared that secret on the CDs Sometime Tuesday Morning (2001), Get Inside (2004), and the instructional DVD Taste, Tone, Space (2006), which are approaching combined sales of 150,000 copies. All the virtues of Johnny A.'s playing are in abundant display on One November Night, a brand new DVD/CD set recorded live at Scullers in his hometown of Boston, MA. | ||

| The group was founded by songwriter and lead vocalist, Carmen Yates. Growing up in the stark landscape of Maryland's Eastern Shore and surrounded by a family of musicians, Carmen was inspired and encouraged at an early age to write and perform his own songs. After moving to New York City, he continued performing and touring throughout the United States. When Carmen finally joined forces with his long time music partner and producer, Thor Jonsson, RACING RAIN was officially born. New York newbie and classically trained upright bassist, Ali Cook, proved to be equally comfortable with classical bowing or bluegrass plucking. Along with her strong vocals, superb ear and harmonizing skills Ali has become a key component of the band's signature sound. Newest member, Christina "Ninja" Kim, first met the group in the studio where she was asked to sing on one of the songs being recorded for the new album. | ||
Saturday 5:30 pm to 10:00 pm | OPENING ACT with RoseAnn Fino Singer-Songwriter. Guitarist | The FALCON 1348 Route 9W Marlboro, NY See Map |
You could say RoseAnn Fino grew up in the sticks, on a farm far enough away from any town, but close enough to New York City that she could feel its pull from an early age. Her parents were avid fans of ole country standards and rock’n’roll. She grew up in nightclubs and concert halls, following musicians that would be her idols when she got older. When she was five her father put a guitar in her hands and eighteen years later she still hasn’t put it down. RoseAnn headed to New York City when she was seventeen. There she found her voice as a songwriter, while keeping her country roots. She graduated from Hunter College with a degree in music and writing. Today, she lives in Queens with her friends and a black cat named Luna, writing songs by day and slinging drinks by night as a bartender. She is currently gigging around the city and finishing up her first album, produced by Professor Louie, which will be released later this year on Woodstock Records. | ||
