50 John Street
Kingston, NY   See Map
Back for dinner at his favorite lunchtime haunt, Studios Stu returns to perform again at Gabriel's Cafe. Great food by Susan, byob, sit back, relax and listen to the sultry tones of tunes familiar and obscure.

Here's what we've heard;

Studio Stu, with his state-of-the-art Studivarious single string bass, unique Brooklyn humor, and unusual, hypnotic vocals, is a master...a one string wonder, combining a traditional folk instrument and a classic jazz form, to create a third thing (one we haven’t quite figured out what to call yet).....fearless in delivery and willing to navigate uncharted paths through the improvisational wilderness; he is ‘el ultimo hombre del lounge’.

Studio Stu takes the very best in classic jazz, pop, and originals, and twists and bends them into what he calls ‘evocative jazz & exotic lounge’. He starts with standard tunes and a loop machine, except, nothing is sacred.....improv is rampant...lyrics are changed at will...

Adults $5 Kids free

Dog on Fleas is celebrating their 10th year making intelligent, gutsy music for young ones (and old ones) with a greatest hits CD, The Bestest of the Best. The Fleas have recorded 5 critically acclaimed CDs in these 10 years.

The idea for this album came about because the first two Dog on Fleas CDs, fairly good songs for fairly good kids and Hoi Polloi have been taken out of print. As much as we loved some of the songs and performances on those records, they made us cringe just a little too much. But in the Bestest of the Best there are some good ones from those CDs, some more from the other CDs, and a couple of re-recorded songs. Plus a few surprises.

“In a more perfect world, Dog on Fleas would be among the best-known names in music for families….…Like all great bands for kids, the music of Dog on Fleas works for all ages. When this outstanding band takes its place among the great n

Main Street
Chatham, NY   See Map
The PMQ continue their journey to the center of the universe, which, they've been told, is somewhere approximately midway between the brainstem of the soloist and the punch line of the last joke the listener heard. How would you like to hear a band transition from Miles Davis to the Ventures, into an original song that Lou Christie would probably love, then into Thelonius Monk and finally landing in a dirty low down hyperfunk jam full of melodic material straight from a 50s TV series set against a Prell jingle from 1963? You would? Well you have some STRANGE musical preferences, and the PMQ is just the band for you. They play what is called SNARF. What's that? You never heard SNARF?? Here's your chance. Grab it! You won't be disappointed! You have Paul Miller's solemn word for it! He's honest as the day is wide, not too consistent as far as showing up for gigs, but that's a good thing! His playing sucks! The other 3 are great, and they just don't want to change their name!

12 Grapes Music & Wine Bar
12 North Division Street
Peekskill, NY   See Map
Marc Von Em is a soulfully energized singer/songwriter who's sound is rooted in Blues, Folk, Rock and Reggae. Driven by his fluid acoustic guitar playing and rich powerful voice, Marc's talents will blow you away from the very first note. Marc tells us that tonight, he's going to "bust out" some songs rarely played in public.

Marc has toured nationally and internationally with the Rob Thomas Band. Rob remarked, "I asked him to open up a 10,000 seat gig. Just him, his guitar, and his songs. He killed it!" Marc has also shared bills with such artists as Lucy Kaplansky, Martin Sexton, Richie Havens, Glenn Tillbrook and others. One reviewer writes: "... I can genuinely say if you haven't heard or seen him live, you are only cheating yourself." Marc has three CD's that are each amazing. His second studio recording, entitled "Free", has sold more than 6,000 copies. Marc has been working on his next solo CD, expected to be released soon.
