Friday 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm | Hamell On Trial Singer-Songwriter, Multi-genre original, and Rock (modern) | Lucky Dog Beacon 333 Fishkill Ave Beacon, NY See Map |
If Bill Hicks played loud guitar; if Lenny Bruce sang protest songs; if Phil Ochs rocked. We can only imagine these scenarios, but we don’t have to imagine foul-mouthed yet whip-smart SAMMY Awards Hall of Famer Hamell on Trial. There’s a reason he was called “a homicidal Otto Preminger” by Rolling Stone. Whether singing, shouting or pontificating about raising his son, raising hell or resisting the police, Hamell—his 1937 Gibson guitar screaming like a metal band—hits the mark every time. “I’m like the Beastie Boys,” he wails in “the Meeting,” “except I’m only one.” Just ask anyone who saw Hamell at Lucky Dog the first time why you shouldn’t miss his return.Buy Tickets | ||

Sunday 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm | Secret Alchemy, Inner Light with Copland House Ensemble, David Feller Classical/Opera, Acoustic, and Instrumental. Chamber Music | Copland House at Bluestone Farm 100 Federal Hill Road Brewster, NY See Map |
| Shrouded in mystery, medieval alchemists – spiritual or physical – transformed one thing into another, turning potential into reality. Across centuries, alchemists of sound – composers – have placed the same basic collection of musical notes into the crucible of their imaginations, producing – as if by a kind of sorcery – works of wildly diverse character, texture, and idiom. Delving into the magic and mystique of creativity, this vibrant program features major works by two of America’s most acclaimed composers – Pierre Jalbert: Secret Alchemy (2012) and Robert Sirota: Luminous Bodies (2018) – exploring artistic origins and destinations, and the often inscrutable place of influence and inspiration.
