 Sympatico, the melodious rhythm ensemble from Woodstock, and Bill Cochran with his French horn and electronics, in a concert and dance to observe the Solstice and benefit Family of Woodstock. A $10 minimum donation is requested.
Sympatico — Kevin Johnson, Bill Ross, Peter Blum, David Budd, Nathan Brenowitz — wields hand drums, djun-djuns (African tom-toms), percussion, bells, gongs, voices, you name it, both to rouse the earth spirits and sense the planets and stars.
Bill Cochran opens, a virtuoso of the French horn who uses electronics to expand the instrument into a virtual orchestra, with waves of sparkling melodies. Then the two will blend their sounds, primordial rhythm with orchestral brass through effects.
Sympatico will close with a set of flat-out rhythmica that will call to all lively feet. Come salute the real end of the year and beginning of the next, and help Family of Woodstock take care of those with nowhere else to turn.

"Country flavored folk steeped in Texas and Louisiana with New York grit." That about sums up Steve Chizmadia, a songwriter from Long Island who has the Long Horns of Texas in his soul. Each song tells a story, and brings us to places across the country in his own endearing, Americana style. His songs have received some acclaim over the years. Steve is a 2003 Kerrville New Folk finalist and in 2005 his song "This Old Town" received honorable mention from the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival. He has showcased at Northeast Regional Folk Alliance in New York, and "It Is What It Is" was #12 on the folk D.J. charts in 2007.

Neil Alexander & Nail presents their Annual Winter Solstice Celebration, at the Turning Point Restaurant on Thursday December 17th at 8:00 PM. Admission is $15.
The winter solstice was the most important date on ancient calendars. Prehistoric monuments like Stonehenge and Newgrange in Ireland indicate the day with remarkable precision. Neil Alexander & Nail will honor the day with their usual mix of burning grooves, soaring soundscapes and red-hot jazz. This will feature longtime drummer Nadav Zelniker & bass virtuoso James Cammack (Ahamd Jamal) on both electric & acoustic bass, and guest appearances by local musical luminaries Premik Russel Tubbs and the wonderful vocalist Judi Silvano. The Turning Point Restaurant, located at 468 Piermont Avenue in the tiny Hudson River town of Piermont NY, is a venue well known for bringing World Class artists to an intimate local setting. In addition, we will be collecting canned food donations for the Food Bank of the Hudson Valley.
