ANGEL BAND
Singer-Songwriter, Acoustic
Towne Crier Cafe
130 Route 22
Pawling, NY   See Map
Angel Band makes big noise. Loud noise. Boisterous, sad, sweet, goofy, glorious and angelic. Any which way you look at it this stuff gets your attention. Whether it's the crazy tight three part harmony, the killer backup playing, the stories, the passion or the compassion, it gets your attention. The songs on this album are mostly self-penned, weaving vivid images, powerful lyrics, musical integrity and "chops" to write home about. The love of the sound that three female voices make together is at the center of this group. The chord rules the day. When the three hit "it," the hair on the back of your neck's gonna stand up. The difficult to pigeonhole sound that emanates from the band roams from old time "mountain" music to contemporary rock and roll influenced originals. Any way you slice it this band catches hold of you and won't let go.

Emily Yanek, a 3rd year music student at Capital Area School for the Arts in Harrisburg, is finally finishing the final stretch of her senior year.

"You sometimes have to go places you don't want to go."

Originally influenced by Broadway music and theater, she will always have a place for Andrew Lloyd Webber. She later found herself drawn to the singer/songwriters of the 1970's. Her favorites being Jackson Browne and Dan Fogelberg.

Johnny A. has practically done it all ... playing guitar in bands at high school dances ... fronting his own band that shared stages with Aerosmith, the Cars, Cheap Trick, Bad Co., Bob Seger, Yes, Hootie & The Blowfish, etc ... serving as guitar sideman for Bobby Whitlock and J. Geils frontman, Peter Wolf. Then, in 2000, he placed himself front and center with an all new guitar instrumental project and CD, "sometime tuesday morning," in which his guitar is his 'voice.' Creating your own guitar voice and carving out a name for yourself is an almost impossible task for a guitarist these days, but Johnny A.'s music has been embraced by critics & fans alike.

Towne Crier Cafe
130 Route 22
Pawling, NY   See Map
The Battlefield Band perform a music of rare passion & joy under the banner "Forward With Scotland's Past." Refusing to be limited musically by suffocating antiquarianism or the 'music business,' they have mixed the old songs with new self-penned material, playing them on a unique fusion of ancient and modern instruments - bagpipe, fiddle, synthesizer, guitar, cittern, flute, bodhran and accordion. In 2003, the Battlefield Band was honored with the very first Best Live Act award at the inaugural Scots Trad Music Awards. The awards celebrate Scotland's thriving traditional musical scene; the nominees chosen by a panel of Scotland's traditional music experts, and the winners chosen by popular public vote via post and email to the BBC, with voting open to audiences around the world. Still leading the way after 30 years! This will be your last chance to see this renowned band with its remaining founding member!
