7:30 pm | GRAMMY LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD-WINNER
with HONEYBOY EDWARDS, with Michael Frank and Michael Packer
Blues | Towne Crier Cafe
130 Route 22
Pawling, NY See Map |
 David Honeyboy Edwards is, at age 95, the last active blues guitarist from the Mississippi Delta with direct connections to the first generation of recorded blues players. Blues guitarists Charley Patton, Son House, Tommy Johnson, Tommy McClennan, Robert Johnson and harmonica player Sonny Boy Williamson, although all older than Honeyboy, were his contemporaries – playing in the juke joints and out on the streets across the southern states. In his travels, Honeyboy also met and played with nearly all the musicans of his own and later generations who became legends in the blues pantheon, but Edwards was moving around so much over such a wide area that he remained unrecorded until Alan Lomax of the Library Of Congress found him in 1942. To this day, Honeyboy Edwards is a fast, dextrous guitarist who wows audiences with his nimble instrumental technique and deep, emotional vocals. He is equally renowned for his photographic memory and his vivid, colorful storytelling.

Bob Franke (it rhymes with “Yankee”) is at the peak of his considerable craft; brimming with the wise and spiritually generous songs for which he is best known, along with wrenchingly convincing topical songs and sugared with the hilarious. His are the kind of songs that really do have the power to change the world by being taken into the lives of people. They come to you, these songs.
As Tom Paxton says, "It's his integrity. I always think of Bob as if Emerson and Thoreau had picked up acoustic guitars and gotten into songwriting. |

 The Paul Miller Quartet, the band that wasn't planned, are at Chatham's Peint O Gwrw Saturday night to dazzle listeners once again with their energetic and thoughtful music. Still forging ahead into the unknown and boldly blowing what no band has blown before, the PMQ continue to develop their take on the latest trend in Improvisitory Pop, the genre known as SNARF, or more specifically, the local version NYSNARF. They recently played at an impressively medium sized venue in the teeming metropolis of Valatie, NY. Their landmark, NO make that land-mine performance at the Valatie Community Theater showed the audience of approximately 17,450 people that this mathematically challenged three piece quartet is not to be daunted by such grandiose proportions as those which confronted them that night (and every other night, for that matter). When asked how the theater environment compared to that of one of the local pubs, drummer Paul Reed replied, "I'm sorry. What was that?" |

 SOLD OUT - Wait list or bar only: For the past three decades, Leo Kottke has been indefatigable in his pursuit of a unique musical vision that has placed him among the foremost acoustic guitar stylists of our time ...or any other, for that matter. Kottke's ability to embrace folk idioms and pop melodies as readily as he assimilates jazz and classical influences makes him unique among guitar virtuosi. For all its technical brilliance, wicked syncopation and harmonic sophistication, Kottke's music is eminently accessible. At heart he's a populist. This has been abundantly clear ever since the guitarist's 1969 debut. Over the years, Kottke has worked in the studio and shared concert stages with everyone from Lyle Lovett, John Fahey, T-Bone Burnett and Rickie Lee Jones, to Paco de Lucia, Pepe Romero, John Williams, John McLaughlin and Joe Pass.

His lyrics. His life. And his influences on our lives. Join us tonight for a John Lennon Tribute.
We don't know a bigger fan of John Lennon than Steve Chizmadia. (Well, maybe we know one or two.) Steve is an award-winning singer/songwriter whose repertoire and love of Lennon songs runs deep... and his musical talent and vocals are perfect for the part.

Acoustic, Bluegrass | Towne Crier Cafe
130 Route 22
Pawling, NY See Map |
 For more than 35 years, Tony Trischka's stylings have inspired a whole generation of bluegrass and acoustic musicians, including Bela Fleck - one of his early students. With his fearless musical curiosity as the guiding force, Tony Trischka's latest critically acclaimed release, Territory, roams widely through the banjo's creative terrain, exploring a panorama of tunings, banjo sounds and traditions with fellow banjoists Pete Seeger, Mike Seeger, Bill Evans, Bill Keith and Bruce Molsky. Other musicians Trischka has collaborated with include Steve Martin, Peter Rowan, Earl Scruggs and many other luminaries. It's likely you've already enjoyed his playing – possibly on the soundtrack of Driving Miss Daisy, on Garrison Keillor's Prairie Home Companion, Mountain Stage or any of a number of other places his inventive work has appeared over the years.
