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.

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! |

 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.

Sometime back in the late 1990’s Happy and Artie Traum started putting together holiday concerts to benefit the Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild. They were called “Solstice” concerts to make them inclusive and non–sectarian…a celebration for the entire community. “Each year we gathered a collection of musically compatible friends, and the artist line–up became a “Who’s Who” of area talent.” recalls Happy. “The shows continued annually with great success until Artie’s untimely passing in 2008. The following year, feeling that this would have been his wish, I reinstated the tradition in Artie’s memory.”

 Were you here in August to see Chris O'Leary? What a show... what a night... what a band... they blew the roof off the place.
Chris O'Leary is one of the Hudson Valley's hottest Blues harp players, and his band is made up of seasoned Blues musicians, including "scorching" blues guitarist Chris Vitarello. With Sean McCarthy on drums, Will McCarthy on vocals, Frankie Ingrao on bass, and Andy Stahl and Chris DiFrancesco on sax, this band's powerful, horn-driven sets are marked by O'Leary wailing on harmonica.
Chris O'Leary was the lead singer and front man for Levon Helm and The Barnburners for over 7 years, touring across the US and lighting up stages everywhere they went. Chris has also appeared on stage with The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Jimmy Vivino, Albert Lee and Dave Edmunds, Dave Maxwell and many others. If you love great Blues, don't miss this night!
