Friday 9:00 pm | RICHIE HAVENS, with special guest AMURA Acoustic, Rock (classic) | Towne Crier Cafe 130 Route 22 Pawling, NY See Map |
40th anniversary of Woodstock! Richie Havens is gifted with one of the most recognizable voices in popular folk music. His fiery, poignant, always soulful singing style has remained unique and ageless since he first emerged from the Greenwich Village folk scene in the early 1960s. It's a voice that has inspired and electrified audiences from the Woodstock Music & Arts Fair in 1969 to the Clinton Presidential Inauguration in 1993, and coming full circle with the 30th Woodstock Anniversary celebration in 1999, "A Day In The Garden." Havens is as vibrant and dynamic today as he was in the Woodstock documentary, in his familiar improvisational performance of "Freedom" (based on the old spiritual, "Motherless Child"). His concerts continue to inspire as well as entertain, and it is an honor, as always, to present him at the Towne Crier Cafe. More info at the Towne Crier Cafe | ||

Call the shop at (845) 679-3224 for more information. Brooklyn-born Ramblin’ Jack Elliott is widely recognized as one of the most influential artists in folk music. At a young age – and against his parents’ wishes – he taught himself how to play guitar and eventually met, and moved in with, Woody Guthrie. Guthrie provided guidance, giving Elliott the boost he needed to advance his career. He has recorded over a dozen albums and his “South Coast” in 1995 earned him his first Grammy award. Over the years, Elliott has worked with Phil Ochs, Bob Dylan, Pete Seeger, Jerry Garcia and The Grateful Dead, Derroll Adams, plus many more. And members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers sang backup on his 2006 album, “I Stand Alone.” BUY TICKETS | ||
