The Backyard Garden is such a cool venue, outside bar, an incredible vibe. The Differents w/ Vito are not to be missed, come on out and get loose!
Bennett Harris fronts his lively quartet, presenting red hot electric blues at this quaint Astoria venue, full of beer & sausage. 
We're pleased to welcome Kathleen Pemble back to our stage as she treats us to her unique talents and the "astute observations about life and love that fill her songs". Kathleen will be joined tonight by Nick Poholchuk on bass,
Liz Nolf on vocals & banjo and Terese Giammarco on vocals. It promises to be an enjoyable evening of music and song.
The vivid songwriting of Catie Curtis combines insightful lyrics with soulful strumming and energy. You'll remember her song "Soulfully," which received substantial radio airplay and was featured in episodes of Dawson's Creek and Chicago Hope. Much of her music entails emotional narratives that the audience can relate to. She has written about domestic violence, corporate greed, religion, homelessness, peace, and gay issues.
"Brad Vickers may be known to some from his recordings with Pinetop Perkins, Hubert Sumlin, or Little Mike & The Tornadoes; or maybe you've been lucky enough to catch his shows. He tunes his guitar in "Vestapol", hence the band name—and what a band! Sax and clarinet master Jim Davis (Hubert Sumlin, Paul Oscher) adds an old-fashioned jazzy feel, drummer Barry Harrison is best known for his work with Johnny and Shemekia Copeland—which speaks for itself—and bassist and sometime fiddler and singer Margey Peters is a familiar name to New York blues watchers (both she and Barry play with Big Frank & The Healers). Special guest the up-and-coming Dave Gross supplies guitar and upright bass, too, but this is Brad's album, as he turns in excellent slide guitar numbers (occasionally tending towards the Hawaiian, or on "I'm Homesick", guess who?), skiffle, hokum and/or ragtime-styled tunes, or fine down-home blues. A very distinctive and appealing sound."

When describing Cherish The Ladies (taken from the name of a traditional Irish jig), the critics say it best: "It is simply impossible to imagine an audience that wouldn't enjoy what they do" (Boston Globe); "An astonishing array of virtuosity" (Washington Post); "Expands the annals of Irish music in America...the music is passionate, tender and rambunctious" (New York Times). For the past eighteen years, Cherish the Ladies have proven themselves worthy of these accolades, growing from a one-time concert concept, featuring the brightest lights in Irish traditional music, to the most successful and sought-after Irish-American group in Celtic music. This powerhouse group combines all the facets of Irish traditional culture – especially the knack for humor – and puts it forth in an immensely entertaining package.
The New Guys are a hard working four piece band, playing a mix of tunes from many genre's, including Blues, R&B, and Classic Rock. They recently added a great guitar player, Bobby Mazz to the mix, opening up a whole new type of sound and expression for us. They also have been fortunate to have Gary Brooks sit in with them for the last few gigs on keys and sax. Recently, someone at a club said to them "You guys sound like a freight train in a hurricane!" That pretty much sums it up. They have been playing clubs throughout the Hudson Valley for a few years now bringing their unique music style that is refreshing and long overdue. Time to party & dance to their rocking sound at our downstairs fireside lounge. See ya there.
A little bit of soul, a little bit of R&B, a little bit of Motown... And a whole lot of fun!
