 When Bono (of U2) recently stated "I think she has one of the greatest voices the human ear has ever experienced," he was heralding what many people know already about Clannad's Moya Brennan: she sings like nothing you've ever heard before! Moya's live shows --with their trademark intimacy and power-- are a rich and moving experience. Being dubbed the "First Lady of Celtic Music" is an honour she doesn't take lightly. Coming from a musical family that includes new-age artist Enya, Grammy award winner Moya Brennan continues to explore new challenges and boundaries. The power of her whispered tones and the beauty of her music never fail to touch the soul. "Brennan is that rare artist who, by defying exact categorization, remains one to continually keep and eye on" -Billboard

 Nenad Bach has a dream, nurtured through wartime and expatriation, and informed by his quest for universal justice and deep longing for world peace. The result: All I Want Is Freedom, a passionate cri de coeur and the latest CD in the artist’s prolific body of work. It’s a potent shot of rock infused with heart and soul, packed with provocative lyrics calling back the ethos of the sixties, unafraid to question and determined to seek answers.
Solidly backed by the four like-minded musicians-Joe DeSanctis, Richard Lindsey, Michael O’Keefe, and Al Orlo-the Nenad Bach Band’s recent album was brilliantly recorded and mixed by five-time Grammy Award winner John Holbrook
Two of Nenad’s albums reached number one in Europe, and to date he has sold over one million records. He has performed all over the world with a wide range of artists, including Pavarotti; Bono and The Edge; Brian Eno, Indigo Girls; Richie Havens; Garth Hudson and Rick Danko; Vince Welnick; and many more.

 Under their banner, "Forward With Scotland's Past," Battlefield Band have been performing on the international scene for four decades, inspired by their rich heritage of Celtic music and fired by the strength of the modern Scottish cultural scene. The band, who pioneered the integration of bagpipes with fiddle, keyboards, guitar and voice, mix the old songs and tunes with new self-penned material, playing them on a unique fusion of ancient and modern instruments: bagpipes, fiddles, guitars, cittern, bass, keyboards, whistles, and bouzouki. This is the band that others have been measuring themselves against for decades, with some of the best talent in Scottish music. In 2003, the Battlefield Band was honored with the very first Best Live Act award at the inaugural Scots Trad Music Awards. Over the years new members have brought with them new ideas, new music, new instruments, attitudes and influences, leading to continued creativity, freshness and enthusiasm.

Tight but never slick, fun but never goofy, intense but never serious, The Pinstripes (a hard-touring band with a hard-won following) combine Ska, Reggae, Dub and Soul to create something that’s genuinely lacking in a great deal of contemporary music: joy.

Betsyann Faiella - described as a "swinging jazz seductress" by Daily Variety - explores the music and life of Frank Sinatra, a complicated and enigmatic figure whose cocky, devil-may-care swing inspired a generation of post war playboys. Faiella brings her very feminine perspective to Sinatra hits and hidden gems in a tribute she has performed in many of the world's most famous nightclubs including The Blue Note and Birdland in New York City, and Ronnie Scott's in London.
"A terrific singer, whose hip phrasing and thrilling time patterns put her in a class by herself." ..Rex Reed

 MICHAEL POWERS FREQUENCY
Heralding from Bayonne New Jersey, Michael Powers now defines the New York City blues scene. Since settling in NYC in the 1970's, Power's originals and "re-shaped classics" have been dictating the raw essence of real blues in the city for years. This 5 time Blues Music award nominee "is no "rocker" masquerading as a "bluesman", no "Hendrix wanna be" - he is simply true to his ... heart and the rockin' soul in his music." Michael Powers is a rare find in the music world; "an impressive musical range and versatility - a musician for all seasons." (Blues Matters)

9:00 pm | Tara Elliot and The Red Velvets, The Blind Ambassadors
Fusion of Punk and Blues | Keegan Ales
20 St. James St.
Kingston, NY See Map |
 Tara Elliott and the Red Velvets are a red-hot power trio that fuses proto-punk and blues driven by incredibly powerful vocals and lead bass solos. Their passionate live performance renders audiences mesmerized. Frontwoman, punk rocker Tara Elliott performs in theatrical demeanor: rocking hard head-to-toe in custom-made, self-designed red velvet as her duly trademark. Their sound reflects influences: Muddy Waters, Janis Joplin, Tina Turner & the Ikettes, The White Stripes and Iggy Pop & the Stooges.
The Blind Ambassadors hail from our very own Kingston New York and are three men who are committed to diverting rock and roll from its current trajectory of self destruction. Those three members are Justin Zipperle on the drums, Jesse Cunningham on the guitar, and Dave Pannullo on the bass. |

 Buried in Blue is one of the BEST party bands in the county... lead guitarist Tom Dowd is known for his lightning-fast guitar work, clear, soaring vocals and fresh, compelling arrangements that span Rock, Blues, R&B and Pop classics. The band features the inimitable Tom Dowd on vocals and lead guitar (and this man can PLAY guitar!), Jaynie "Blonde Thunder" D'Agostino on percussion, Pete McGregor on drums, Barry "Buzzy" Garriola on bass and Kevin McSweeney rhythm guitar, who provides the unshakable and perfectly-chosen solos that make each song a new classic. As one reviewer writes: "If you want to catch an incredible live performance of Classic Rock, Pop and Blues with pitch-perfect vocals, powerful drums, and some hot Hendrix-style guitar, see these guys soon....Buried in Blue is buried in talent."
DInner reservations highly recommended as this band packs the house (and the dance floor!)
