Blues Party
with Big Joe Fitz, Melinda DiMaio
Blues, Dance, and Jazz
High Falls Cafe
Route 213
High Falls, NY   See Map
The effervescent Melinda DiMaio joins us this time around. To describe her eclectic musical style Melinda has coined the phrase "JaFoCo”. Her music fuses elements of jazz, folk, and country. With a vocal quality that draws from a rich palette of shades and hues, DiMaio’s sound has been described as Patsy Cline meets Joni Mitchell. We'll put Melinda in the Lo-Fi Blender and see what happens. I have a feeling it's gonna be mighty cool.

Big Joe's Blues Party. The Best Tuesday Night Party anywhere. Guaranteed!

Big Joe Fitz & The Lo-Fi's: Mark Dziuba - guitar & vocals, Robert Bard - bass & vocals, Tim Whalen - drums, vocals

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.

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.

Taste Budd's Chocolate and Coffee Cafe

Red Hook, NY   See Map
In 2002, Brett Sears broke onto the eclectic Albany music scene as one half of the acoustic duo Southpaw. Brett and his counterpart, Aaron Brown combined lush harmonies, smooth licks, and punchy lyrics to deliver solid acoustic rock performances. After the demise of Southpaw, Brett continued to play the Albany music scene with solo performances. He also worked extensively with Sean Madden during 2006 and 2007 and continued to develop his skills as a singer/songwriter playing local coffee houses and pubs. Sean’s folk style was a big influence on Brett, who started writing more songs in that style while still maintaining his rock and roll roots. In January of 2007, Brett’s song “Be Good” was a finalist in a local songwriting contest for the City of Albany’s “Dads Make A Difference" campaign.

There is life after the Ramones, but who knew that its sound would be bluegrass? Tommy Ramone plays a mean mandolin in this new acoustic duo, singing tautly written songs with tenderness about the comforts and subtle politics of home life. —The New York Times

Tommy Ramone began his musical career as Tom Erdelyi an engineer at the Record Plant recording studios. In the musical doldrums of the 70’s he, along with the great JOHNNY, JOEY AND DEE DEE RAMONE, formed the rock group RAMONES and participated in the birth of New Wave, Punk Rock, and Alternative music. As manager, producer and drummer for the band, Tommy Ramone helped create the sound, style and ideology for what was to become modern rock.

Since Christopher Robin picked up the guitar, his musical roots have included personal lessons from artists like Michael Hedges and Gregg Allman – yet his tone, chord structure, feel, searing solos and sense of melody remain truly his own. "All of my songs are true stories. I've had residency in seven different states, and there's been a lot of stories. They're about all the things I've done, from sailing on tall ships to being a cowboy in Colorado, to playing for Kings, Queens, Princes and Princesses in Europe and the Hells Angels." Christopher Robin's live performances ~ sharing the stage or recording with a long list of artists including Gregg Allman, Robert Cray, Lee Sklar, The Marshall Tucker Band, Del McCoury and Peter Yarrow ~ have earned him a reputation as a high-energy crowd pleaser.
