C.B. Smith is the nom de plume of veteran songwriter Carl Bethge. “Performing as C.B. Smith helps me get past my godawful stage fright,” he says. “Besides, nobody can pronounce or spell my real name. Life is way easier for Mr. Smith.” C.B. writes songs that traverse the stylistic landscape between revved-up bluegrass romps, old-school country ballads and straight-up rockers, typically telling stories about ordinary people searching for some hard-won peace of mind. “My earliest musical memory, besides church music, is listening to my mother’s radio in the kitchen. Back then you’d hear Hank Williams followed by Ray Charles. Ever since I’ve tried to digest any strain of music that turns my head around. A lot of it comes out of places like Kentucky, Memphis and Nashville, but I always try to put a Yankee spin on it.” | ||

Garrin Benfield's sound has been described as Freestyle Acoustic Rock: a blend of moody, guitar driven rock, blues, and polyrhythmic grooves.

Joe Krzyzewski is a gifted sixteen year old songwriter-musician from Pawling, NY, who has been performing on our stage for several years now. Joe is the son of George Krzyzewski, the director of Guitar Stars Music School. Already, Joe has been awarded with first place in the Dutchess County Youth Festival (along with his 10 year old sister Anna); was a finalist in the Mid Atlantic Songwriting Contest; and he was a Towne Crier Cafe Open Mic finalist.

He sings in a strong baritone, from rousing "pub song" favorites to tender love songs and accompanies himself on guitar, cittern, banjo, and button accordion.

They say she "has a voice like Jewel with a touch of Jazz." Cassandrea Frake has been featured on lohud.com's Listening Room. Her songwriting is creative, touching and uniquely original. Influences include Joni Mitchell, John Mayer and Nora Jones. Billy Kelly is a folksinger who plays and sings from the heart. One of our favorites is "Seraphima", a tune that's been applauded by the critics. His song "She's Single Again" was featured in NBC's TV show, Ed.

Sunday 8:00 pm | SONNY LANDRETH, with special guest GEOFF HARTWELL Blues, Cajun/Zydeco, and Rock (modern) | Towne Crier Cafe 130 Route 22 Pawling, NY See Map |
When it comes to Sonny Landreth, even Eric Clapton is a fan: "He's probably the most underestimated musician on the planet, and also probably one of the most advanced." As if to back his words up with actions, Clapton honored Landreth with the #1 time-slot at his 2007 Crossroads Guitar Festival. An amazing back & forth musical conversation between these two greats can be seen on Youtube. Mark Knopfler can also be seen on Youtube, praising Sonny Landreth's slide guitar playing before they perform together. In a world where truly great guitar practitioners dot the globe like as many mountain pinnacles on our planet, Sonny Landreth's techniques seem to leave his guitar floating artfully, impossibly above. Talent in such a rarified atmosphere seems fragile & ephemeral – leaving one resolved to appreciate it while it's here, while wishing him a long, healthy and productive life!
