It says on their website that "BrotherFlower is feverishly working on world domination with their undeniable love for playing music together." Their sound is both traditional and new: everything from gospel to old rock & roll songs, with quite a bit of their own material mixed in. The band features the vocal talents of Jake Stigers, Bill Kelly and Gary Dillon, who, along with great harmonies, bring a unique mix of instrumentation to the group, creatively blending acoustic guitar and drum with the dulcimer, mandola, fiddle, banjo and dobro. Their name comes from the song Brother Flower by Townes Van Zandt. Their original songs like Beans on a Knife, Down in New Orleans or Your Poor Daddy's Heart are said to be reminiscent of The Band or Hank Williams. The trio performed "in the round" at 12 Grapes, and you can catch a video of them by clicking the link below.

Kenny White is one of the most sought after producers/composers/pianists in NYC. He's written and arranged literally hundreds of national TV and radio commercials, working with Linda Ronstadt, Dwight Yoakam, Gladys Knight, Aaron Neville, Ricky Skaggs, Kathy Mattea and others on tunes indelibly printed in your mind. He has also scored and written songs for many indie and major studio films. His production of Shawn Colvin's I Don't Know Why, from Fat City, helped earn her a Grammy nomination. Amid all his success, Kenny woke up one morning and realized that his real passion may have eluded him ...up to that point. He took his collection of well crafted, insightful & very musical compositions, assembled a group of A-List players and recorded Uninvited Guest, then hit the road with some of his very talented pals. This worked so well and to everyone's delight (including our own), that we're sure you'll be delighted too!

Gandalf Murphy & the Slambovian Circus Of Dreams has been variously described as "alt-country/ roots-rock," "folk-pop," "hillbilly-Floyd," and "surreal Americana" – a clear indicator of its singularly indescribable uniqueness. At the same time, their sound and even their songs feel so familiar, so classic, it's as if you've been listening to these characters all your life. The "Circus Of Dreams" has won critical acclaim as well as a fiercely loyal following. They've been Hudson Valley Magazine's "Band of the Year" for the past 3 years. The Circus' shows are notoriously UN-staged – which is part of the fun, and keeps their shows refreshingly real. However, while they don't take themselves too seriously, it's evident that they do take their jobs as music-makers very seriously. Death-defying feats aside, Gandalf Murphy And The Circus Of Dreams brings you a show of precision, high-flying magic sure to delight one and all!
