Their passion and energy for this music is immediately evident whether it's a Motown hit, Stax classic or any of the horn driven hits by the classic "Horn" bands like Chicago, Blood Sweat & Tears or Tower of Power.
The Band members collective experiences bridge the gamut from Broadway to recording sessions and from cruise ships to regional and national touring bands.
The true highlight of New York Uproar is their horn section. These guys are the "Real Deal" with years of Broadway, Big Band and club date experience. They deliver the powerful sound that only a pro horn section can. Whether it is the unmistakable horn line from songs such as Chicago's "Beginnings" or the Sam and Dave classic "Soul Man" these guys nail it every time!

 Over the past decade, the Brooklyn-based vocalist/writer/musician/producer has built a formidable body of recordings, won an international reputation as a riveting live performer, amassed an extensive file of rapturous critical raves, (3rd Coast Music in Austin, TX writes, “Kurtz is the kind of artist who teaches us ink- stained wretches to be miserly with superlatives, so we’ll still have a stock of them when she comes around.”) and earned an equally devoted audience around the world. She’s achieved these distinctions on her own terms, releasing five albums and a live DVD on her own Kismet label, touring around the world on her own dime, and building a remarkably loyal fan base.
Along the way, Kurtz was named Female Songwriter of the Year by the National Academy of Songwriters, and Norah Jones and Bonnie Raitt have raved about her in interviews.
Featuring David Richards on bass, Peter Vitalone on organ & piano and Randy Crafton on drums.

12 North Division Street
Peekskill, NY See Map |
 If you grew up in the '60's & '70's -- or even if you didn't -- you are probably a fan of Simon & Garfunkel. We most certainly are.
Jeb and Jock Guthrie, aka The Guthrie Brothers, have been playing and singing together since they were young kids. Performing in a number of garage bands and bar bands, they eventually came to cherish their "natural sibling vocal blend."
"We knew the first time we played a Simon and Garfunkel song that we had a natural and almost spiritual connection to it. Our voices blended effortlessly into that S&G signature sound, and the overwhelming audience reaction to our performance confirmed our feelings. Since that first performance, we have worked to perfect our tribute to these two amazing artists."
The Guthrie Brothers' authentic replication of the S&G songs we all know and love will blow you away. Don't miss this special performance!
**$10 Entertainment Fee or $5 with dinner entree.*

with Lost Leaders, Peter Cole, Byron Isaacs, Lee Falco | The FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY See Map |
 If you took your copies of Deja Vu, Bookends, Full Moon Fever and Disraeli Gears and melted them into one L.P. it might sound like Lost Leaders, the alchemical brew of Peter Cole and Byron Isaacs.
The project was born at Levon Helm's studio in Woodstock, N.Y. in the winter of 2011.
Peter and Byron took a week between Saturday Rambles and worked out original tunes with Grammy-winning house engineer Justin Guip running back and forth from drum kit to console. As the record neared completion they performed the material for the first time by opening a Midnight Ramble.
While waiting to release the resulting record, Lost Leaders created a series of live performance videos covering some of their favorite material (including their own). Their two voices and two guitars contrast with the lushness of the studio recordings. Their arrangements of songs by Beck, Pete Pete Townsend, Neil Young and Tom Petty illustrate their haunting vocal blend and instrumental ingenuity. |

 Calvin Cooke, Chuck Campbell, Darick Campbell and Aubrey Ghent- are the greatest living musicians to embody the Sacred Steel tradition - joyously encompassing blues, rock and soul. The pedal steel guitar was introduced to church services by Willie Eason in the 1930’s, to mimic African-American singing and shouting.
The Slide Brothers were a featured act of the Experience Hendrix Tour, thrilling sold out shows across North America with their interpretations of Hendrix signatures “Purple Haze” and “Foxy Lady”.
“I want to take this musical history and make it relevant to give people a better idea of who we are and where this tradition came from. ....[The Slide Brothers can] bridge the cultural gap between people who are seventy-five years old and kids who are fifteen years old by reaching back into this history of music.” - Robert Randolph . |

 Amy Helm’s deep musical roots were enriched by a lifetime of exposure to the finest expressions of American musical tradition. The daughter of music legend Levon Helm and singer/songwriter Libby Titus Fagen, Helm wields a powerful voice that can both stir and soothe, whether she is singing traditional gospel, blues standards or her own heartfelt compositions.
Her lengthy resume is highlighted by many years of singing and playing alongside her father, with whom she conceived, launched and perfected the Midnight Rambles, intimate performances held since 2004 at his home and studio in Woodstock, N.Y. She co-produced Levon Helm’s 2007 CD Dirt Farmer, which won the Grammy for Best Traditional Folk Album. She is poised to release her first solo album.

Online: www.wtbq.com or 93.5FM, NY See Map |
| With a thumping thumb, dancing fingers, deep gritty soul stirring vocals, wailing harp and poetic blue-collar lyrics, Taylor oozes American roots. He draws comparisons to Tom Waites, Chris Smither, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, and Ray Lamontagne, while his lyrics are colored by his own working class wandering roots. He's been an oysterman, carpenter, hitchhiker, homeowner, father, 'thru-hiker' (Appalachian Trail, Long Trail & John Muir Trail) and musician. He plays venues from New England to Nashville and his latest release “Home,” spins on folk radio worldwide. He is currently spearheading the SandyHookSongsForHope.org CD fundraiser project.
"Shawn is a master balladeer & troubadour,” says Remo Ricaldone of American Roots Radio, Italy. “Taylor has mellowness to his voice that works well against the frenetic flash of finger-picking that is the foundation of his songs… It is Americana stripped of its outer skin.” – The Alternateroute.com |
