Reggae Fusion | The FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY See Map |
 Royal Khaoz’s music is reminiscent of reggae's old school sounds with a modern interpretation. The band stands as a unit whose sole purpose is to bring an energetic vibe through music. They have evolved together, and believe now, they are what and whom they started out to be. With all members native to Jamaica, Royal Khaoz presents their music in the form of Reggae Fusion. With frontman Bama as the lead vocalist, solid drum and bass and a steady rhythm section, the band possesses the ability to represent reggae in its truest form, applying their own twist to traditional forms.
Royal Khaoz has shared stages with Third World, The Wailers with Aston “Familyman” Barrett, Michael Rose, Sista Carrol, Yellowman, and Luciano – gaining the respect of those whom they grew up emulating.
Featuring: Jermaine "Bama" Williams - Lead Vocals/Percussion , Andre "DreTegs" Hawthorne -Vocals Keyboards/Synth , Steven Sylvester - Vocals Drums/Percussion , Kavi Forgie - Bass/Vocals |

Marlboro, NY See Map |
 "The Only One" a new release of originals, co-written by Bergson & Hooks, features Ellis swapping Sam & Dave-like vocals with Chris—so well-paired that it’s hard to discern where one ends and the other begins. Even better is the short but tasty Steve Cropper-styled solo by Bergson." Living Blues
"Until the arrival of Ellis Hooks on the 21st century blues and soul scenes with his now-signature meld of R&B, blues and Southern gospel, it seemed that the great stories ...had already been told ...Not so...Hooks is the true continuum... reminiscent of some of the greats...." - All Music Guide
"Upon first hearing guitar man Chris Bergson and his gravely southern drawl, which is a combination of Levon Helm and Gregg Allman, you can hardly believe this guy is from New York City...an artist dedicated to bringing blues and classic R&B into the future while honoring the past." - No Depression

 Hipbone Records recording artist Alexis P Suter with Ray Grappone, drummer/percussionist, producer/vocalist Vicki Bell and Dave Keyes on keyboards/vocals deliver their mix of Gospel, Blues, Traditional, poignant, and time-honored American music, up-close and personal.
Blues Music Award nominee Alexis P. Suter is a powerhouse bass/baritone vocalist with the ability to go to "that other place" where singers go when they are lost in the music. It is no wonder the late B.B. King and the late Levon Helm were big fans. Suter and her band have played nearly 100 of Helm’s shows in Woodstock NY and opened for “The King” when he visited her hometown of NYC.
The Ministers of Sound feature Ray Grappone (APSB, Buster Poindexter, Levon Helm) on drums and percussion, Vicki Bell (APSB, Open Door, Corey Daye) on vocals and percussion, and Dave Keyes (Smokey Joe's Cafe, Odetta, Bo Diddley, David Johansen, Popa Chubby) on keys, and Chris Bergson (The Chris Bergson Band, AMOS) on guitar. |

NYFA grant recipient Fred Gillen Jr has released 9 full-length albums, to great critical acclaim.

In 1997, Latin music historiographer Max Salazar presented Orlando a plaque in recognition of nearly five decades of uninterrupted contribution to Latin music. In January 2003, Orlando was invited by Latin Jazz station, WPFW, by the Arlington County (Virginia) Cultural Arts Division, and by the Latin American Folk Institute to do a live concert in Washington at The Spectrum Theater and in 2006, Congressman Jose E. Serrano honored Orlando as “The Last Mambo King,” for his continuing to provide Latin American music and his willingness to devote time to helping the less fortunate.

12 North Division Street
Peekskill, NY See Map |
 When one of your most loyal customers and music fans tells you over and over, "you've got to hear this woman," you take notice. That's what happened with Sarah Wise. Now, we're telling you... you've got to hear this woman!
With a keen desire to develop material and grow her audience slowly, Sarah dedicated the past several years collaborating with veterans Clifford Carter (James Taylor), Marc Shulman (Suzanne Vega), Ann Klein (Ani DiFranco) and Chrissi Poland (Scissor Sisters), allowing her songs to evolve through consistent live performance, rather than racing to record. In November, Sarah played to a packed house at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2 for the release of her debut single, "Hang Tight." She looks forward to releasing a string of singles leading up to her debut EP in 2017.
We look forward to Sarah's 12 Grapes debut! Please join us.
