Roots Music, Ska
BeanRunner Cafe
201 S. Division Street @ Esther
Peekskill, NY   See Map
Keeping alive the tradition of roots/ska/reggae realness, the Big Takeover's refreshingly upbeat and original. You’ll find it hard to believe that all the cuts on their Debut CD "Following Too Close" are originals, as they magnificently capture early rocksteady riddims with supertight songwriting. Lead singer Nee Nee Rushie, a native of Jamaica, leads her five bandmates in what is arguably one of the best upstate NY groups in recent memory. The Big Takeover leans hard toward reggae’s more up-tempo parents, ska and rocksteady, and their high energy has audiences jamming from start to finish.

Admission: $10

Maggie Seligman

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.

The Dalliance will open with an acoustic set of their unique alt-rock and then turn the stage over to lead singer/guitarist Barry Mangione who will host an acoustic open mic.

This concert offers a second chance, both to those who know what a great show these musicians offer, and to those who unfortunately missed the April 2008 concert after John's passing, originally scheduled for John Stewart himself. The John Stewart Band is comprised of the sidemen (all with careers of their own) who played with Stewart for over two decades. Consisting of Chuck McDermott, John Hoke, Dave Crossland and Bob Hawkins on guitars, as well as drummer Dennis Kenmore and bassist Dave Batti, they have performed numerous shows featuring the music of John Stewart across the country. Look for other "special guests" to appear.

The Caravel Quartet, comprised of violinists Amie Weiss and Kristi Helberg, violist Miranda Sielaff and cellist Jane Cords O’Hara, officially formed in 2008. Having played together for years in various combinations, all four are members of the dynamic New York City–based orchestra The Knights, a group whose recent engagements have included two recordings for the Sony Classical label and performances at the Dresden Musikfestspiele.

The four musicians respectively have diverse experience in non–western and folk music styles – North Indian classical music studies, performances with Yo–Yo Ma's Silk Road Ensemble, American folk and old–time music, experimental and multi-genre collaborations – all of which add to the breadth of the Caravel's repertoire and curiosity.

An incredible singer/songwriter with a powerful voice, Jason Gisser (pictured here) performs his repertoire of originals & popular covers with an infectious style, influenced by Funk, Soul, and classic Rock. He's performed all over Westchester and NY, including the Paramount and the NY International Music Festival in the East Village.

Julie Corbalis sings songs not only of her life, but in a small part, yours, too. The relateability of these songs keeps her fan base coming back again and again. You get the sense when you listen to these songs that this is "a woman who has lived hard, loved hard, fallen hard and has picked herself up to do it again, regretting nothing."

Charlie Sabin is a high-energy acoustic performer. Charlie has toured internationally, and has worked with and written songs with major recording artists and producers. Join us tonight for dinner, or just a glass of wine on the couch, and another entertaining Singer/Songwriter Showcase.
