Catherine Russell, Matt Munisteri, Mark Shane, Tal RonenThe FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY   See Map
Vocalist Catherine Russell is a native New Yorker, born into musical royalty. Her father, the late Luis Russell, was a legendary pianist/composer/bandleader, and Louis Armstrong's long-time musical director. Her mother, Carline Ray, was a pioneering vocalist/guitarist/bassist who performed with International Sweethearts of Rhythm, Mary Lou Williams, and Ruth Brown.

Catherine’s professional life began early. After graduating with honors from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, she embarked upon musical adventures and has since likely had to buy a trophy case or two. Over her career she has won critics awards from German Record Critics, Living Blues magazine, the French Jazz Academy, and a Grammy for her contributions to the soundtrack of HBO's Boardwalk Empire, among many others.

With an off-the-beaten-path song selection, sparkling acoustic swing, and a stunning vocal approach, Catherine Russell has joined the ranks of the greatest interpreters and performers.

Opening Act
with Chrissie Poland
Singer-Songwriter, Jazz, and Soul. Pop
The FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY   See Map
Soulful siren and songwriter Chrissi Poland weaves together the sounds of soul, jazz and pop, creating a captivating tone and compelling people to wonder how "that voice comes from that little body."

Often drawing comparisons to Aretha Franklin, Carol King, and contemporaries such as Adele and Diane Birch, her songwriting embodies a lyrical depth and melodic richness that draws audiences of all kinds in with ease. Tie that up with showmanship that recalls Prince and Michael Jackson, and you’ve got a quite a heavy hitter in Ms. Poland.

Chrissi is currently in the studio creating her next studio album, due out summer 2015.

The Tin Pan Band
Jazz
BeanRunner Cafe
201 S. Division Street @ Esther
Peekskill, NY   See Map
Tin Pan connotes a world of jazz, blues and American popular song. The band has created a rabid following by playing music that resonates powerfully because its intention is pure - to make people dance, smile and conjure with the spirit of music itself. On their new album, Hound's Tooth, the band has perfected their sonic vision - effortless, wondrous and festive, feeling much like, as the band describes themselves, Ray Charles and Tom Waits at a Bourbon Street Parade. With Jesse Selengut on trumpet, lead vocals and compositions, Clifton Hyde on guitar and hollerin', Stefan Zeniuk on reeds and boy soprano vocals, and Peter "Baby Hands" Maness on bass and some singin', Tin Pan evokes everything from Fats Waller and Louis Armstrong to Irving Berlin and Hoagy Carmichael. The Tin Pan Band was founded in 2006 by Selengut, a long time New York based musician, and the curator of the Williamsburg Jazz Festival.

Marlboro, NY   See Map
Gifted pianist, composer, and singer, Akie Bermiss, has been a Man of Letters since he was still in "small clothes".

Bermiss began writing music criticism in his years at Bard College, finishing with a degree in music composition. He also studied American Music (read: tin pan alley, broadway musicals, and jazz) and writing (read: wrote some bad poetry and called it good). To his friends, he is considered a musical snob of the highest order; to his enemies — a musical charlatan of the basest variety.

Among other things he is the author of a children’s book (“I Hate to Be Sick” - Scholastic), a lover of science fiction, a huge fan of cigars, and he takes his bourbon: neat.

"Sonic Bloom," which was produced by Eric Ambel (Steve Earle/Del Lords) has been well received. In 2013, Hudson was named "Best Female Artist" by 3rd Coast Music magazine in Austin, TX. Hudson's most popular song, "Mama Was A Train Wreck" was named a top 100 song of 2013 by New York Music Daily.

"With her edgy wit and elegant stage presence songwriter Karen Hudson has been a mainstay of the New York Americana scene since the early zeros...Hudson's matter-of-fact vocals carry the lyrics with passion, soul, and rich dynamics, from an insistent wail to a warm, caressing timbre: she's never sung better." -New York Music Daily.

Marlboro, NY   See Map
King’s soulful sound is rooted in southern gospel-blues, carries the Gulf-borne humidity of Louisiana, the river loam of Muscle Shoals and the hot springs of her native Arkansas, with a little Texas country bubbling underneath. Her new album, Building A Fire, which she co-produced with the Subdudes’ John Magnie and Steve Amedee, captures her warm, earthy Americana style via 10 originals, one traditional and one cover: a Larry Campbell-penned spiritual previously sung by Levon Helm.

King was the first woman named by the Texas Legislature as an official Texas state musician in 2008; having a song she wrote, “Texas Blue Moon,” covered by Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra; befriending and sharing stages with the Subdudes, Marcia Ball, Carolyn Wonderland, and Willie Nelson; performing on the Delbert McClinton Sandy Beaches Cruise and touring internationally.

Her current release, "Building A Fire" like her six previous releases, is on her own Lemonade Records label.

"Carolyn Wonderland is the real deal! She's an amazing guitar player. She whistled a solo. She played the trumpet! And damn, can she sing." - Los Angeles Times

The reigning queen of Austin blues, Carolyn Wonderland sparks fire on guitar and soulful fury in the force of her vocal grit. Since 2011's Peace Meal, reveling in Wonderland's rough and raw Janis Joplin-esque howl and burn-down blues, she's lent her impeccable riffs to a number of albums, including the upcoming LP from the Stooges' James Williamson, Re-licked.

Tenebrae Service
with Dorraine Scofield
Musical play
Saugerties Reformed Church
173 Main Street
Saugerties, NY   See Map
This annual candle-lite “service of the shadows” recreates the last days of Jesus’ life, leading up to his crucifixion on the cross. The progress is marked by the dimming of lights until, with the removal of the Christ Candle, we are reminded of the final isolation of Jesus in darkness on the cross. The bell tolls 33 times, for the years of Christ’s life. The Christ Candle’s return symbolizes the meaning of the cross fulfilled. The retelling is done with a series of dramatic scenes interspersed with music. This moving story will be told by a cast of Broadway actors and professional musicians working side by side with members of the congregation. The church is thrilled to once again have Broadway actress Jeanne Jones directing the production which has become one of the most talked about services of the year.

Studio Stu

The Falcon
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY   See Map
Hey, I'm back playing one of the best venues ever...The Falcon!

With my state-of-the-art Studivarious single string bass, unique Brooklyn humor, and unusual, hypnotic vocals, I take the very best in classic jazz, pop, and originals, and twist and bend them into ‘evocative jazz & exotic lounge’.

Here's what they are saying...

"Stu starts with standard tunes and a loop machine. except, nothing is sacred. Improv is rampant. Lyrics are changed at will. Familiar languages are obliterated. Harmonies are sweet and sour perfection. His music is serious, sophisticated and uncompromising in execution. He is one in-tune, out-of-tune, offbeat, beatnik."

New monthly session of musicmaking, inner and improv
with "Playing with Voice & Rhythm", hosted by Peter Blum & Bill Ross
World, Acoustic. a participatory workshop
SAGE Center for the Healing Arts
6 Deming Street
Woodstock, NY   See Map
An opportunity for musicians and those with no prior musical training at all to explore some of the basic ways that we can communicate non-verbally through the beautiful medium of pure vocal tones and rhythmic improvisations. In most primary and tribal cultures the entire community regularly joined in some form of percussion and chanting of tones or vocables. Join Peter Blum and Bill Ross as we, as a community, find ways to rediscover these enriching practices, and have some fun with collective improvising. Note: Although certain aspects may be similar, this is not a drum circle, or a kirtan group.

It's been 7 years that we've enjoyed some of the finest musicians in the Hudson Valley. JP Patrick & his band are a prime example of that.

JP puts his heart and soul into the music and invites some of the best musicians in the area to sit in and perform. Every month, there's a new dynamic on the stage. It may be a sit-down electric-acoustic night, or dueling drummers, or exceptional harmonies with 3 back-up singers. You never know what MAGIC may happen at one of JP's Sessions, but you will never be disappointed in the calibre of the music. he band explores the musical territory of Blues, R&B, Funk and Jazz.

Tonight features JP on lead vocals, Blues harp & alto sax (and sometimes a little stand-up comedy!), Dave McDowell on sax/flute, Hank DeCora on guitar, Chris Burke on keys, Linda Geiger on drums and Paul Bisbano on bass.

Help us pack the place tonight. Live music is truly a gift. And tonight, it's FREE.
