Joshua Sanders
Acoustic, Singer-Songwriter
Taste Budd's Chocolate and Coffee Cafe
40 West Market Street
Red Hook, NY   See Map
Currently a solo singer/guitarist/songwriter, background in jazz, blues and country. Studied voice in Los Angeles with Susan Strietwieser and in New York with Janie Barnett; guitar in Los Angeles with Gary Mandell of Boulevard Music and in New York with highly regarded New York session player Matt Smith. I am heavily influenced by Americana/alt-country music ie Townes van Zandt and Guy Clark and perform my own songs at small venues around NYC. I have recently been getting radio airplay on Americana/country radio; my song "Alley Cat" has been on the Redbud Radio Hour on WICR 88.7 in Indianapolis. My early band experience was primarily blues, which I found was tremendously helpful in terms of learning the guitar, as well as figuring out how to work with the bass and drums to form a singular sound. Since 2003 I have attended Pat Wictor's biweekly songwriting circles here in New York. My goal, rarely achieved, is to write one song every week!

Richie Goods and Nuclear Fusion
with Richie Goods (electric bass), Helen Sung (keyboards), Mike Clark (drums), Jeff Lockhart (guitar)
Jazz
BeanRunner Cafe
201 S. Division Street @ Esther
Peekskill, NY   See Map
When separate components come together to make a powerful reaction, a bigger reaction than that made by their individual parts, you have witnessed the principle of fusion—Richie Goods and Nuclear Fusion are the embodiment of that principle in action. These musicians, each highly accomplished in their own rite, are a perfect mix of talent and energy, igniting the stage and exciting the audience in one beautiful chain reaction.

Richie Goods is a master musician whose tenure with many of music’s greatest names clearly as worn off on him as a leader – his candor to the audience, his approach in developing a set list, and most of all his bass playing are all top of the line…If you get the chance to catch this group do yourself a favor and do so.~Christopher Lams, Jazz Improv NY

Essential listening for advocates of electric-jazz.~ Glenn Astarita, jazzreview.com

EILEN JEWELL, with special guest Red Rooster
Singer-Songwriter, Roots Music, and Country
Towne Crier Cafe
130 Route 22
Pawling, NY   See Map
Eilen Jewell's songs come on like the nakedness of a thunderstorm after a sultry day: "You show me the well, but you don't let me drink." When she hisses that she's "Too Hot to Sleep," you know she ain't talking about the weather, and you know exactly why she's "going some place where they never say your name." Her stage presence and the easy slide of her voice suggest the lifetime experience of a country torch singer from the '40s, having another go 'round in a fresh, new life. Eilen's heart-achingly hushed style and intimate grasp of roots music's wild graces are set to a swaying, irrepressible groove by her band, evoking classic country, folk and swing without feeling nostalgic.

Maggie Seligman
Acoustic, Folk/Traditional, and Americana
Taste Budd's Chocolate and Coffee Cafe
40 West Market Street
Red Hook, NY   See Map
My primary instrument is my voice, and my guitar embellishes, accompanies, and decorates it. My sound and style are my own. Exposure to music and vocal styles of all types, ranging from standards to jazz to folk/traditional to blues, and to the music of Great Britain, the Appalachian Mountains of Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, and North Carolina, have influenced my sound and led me to describe my music as "eclectic acoustic." I have opened for Christine Lavin and Dave Cousins and performed in Showcases and the Open Mic Finals at the Towne Crier Cafe in Pawling, NY, and appeared in venues in the Hudson Valley and Southwestern CT. I perform a good mix of songs, including my own compositions, covers, and traditional music. I like to tell the stories of the traditional songs I sing and might focus on the song's provenance, themes, imagery, history, depiction of characters, etc. Listeners tell me that they enjoy learning about this traditional music.

Singer/Songwriter Sunday
with Bill Kelly
Singer-Songwriter
12 Grapes Music & Wine Bar
12 North Division Street
Peekskill, NY   See Map
Bill Kelly -- aka "Mr. Americana" -- is songwriter and all-around great guy. Whether on acoustic guitar or mandola (or is it a mandolin?) Bill's charm and charisma on stage make all his performances enjoyable. On his CD, "Bread on the Waters", Bill "takes a long hard pull on the bottle of life, with weather-beaten songs of messed-up love, longing, and redemption." His song "Seraphima" is a tune that's been applauded by critics and "She's Single Again" was featured in NBC's TV show, Ed. But our favorite has to be "A Bottle of Wine Don't Last Too Long 'Round Here". Could be our theme song.

Join us for dinner or a glass (or bottle) of wine on the couches as we welcome Bill Kelly back to our 12 Grapes stage.

**Free Admission**

Mary Gauthier
Acoustic
Rosendale Cafe
434 Main St
Rosendale, NY   See Map
A rare Wednesday night at the Cafe...

Mary Gauthier is one of the most challenging artists to rise up from the underground in a long, long time; writing songs that tell hard truths with a desolate eloquence. Gauthier's path has wound through devastation and despair. She has beaten back demons, learned from the streets, sunk to the bottom of life, turned 18 behind bars, emerged from darkness... and to completely confuse things, won notice as a respected restaurateur... all before writing her first song.

GENERAL ADMISSION TICKETS $20: http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/106465

Contact: 518.580.5775 mtannenb@skidmore.edu

JFK started off playing in a number of different Toronto based bands, his best known projects being Black Cat #13 and Death from Above 1979. Once Black Cat split, he formed his own 7-piece music project, Femme Fatale. Though the live band broke up, Keeler recorded all 3 of the released EPs himself, which were produced by longtime friend Al Puodziukas, with whom he would later go on to form MSTRKRFT.

The Walkmen are a rock band formed in New York in 2000. The band has released 4 albums of original material--including 2008's You and Me, which still sounds as fresh as the day it was conceived. The band has traveled extensively around the world in the last 8 years, but has always called New York home.
