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.

with The Pinstripes
Ska
Keegan Ales
20 St. James St.
Kingston, NY   See Map
Keegan Ales is glad to welcome “The Pinstripes” who are trekking here all the way from Cincinnati, Ohio. The Pinstripes don’t merely play Ska and Reggae — they inhabit the sound like it’s a ramshackle house that’s keeping them alive. 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.

The Reddan Brothers are a hard hitting blues/rock trio with the miles to back it. The Reddan Brothers grew up backing legends of blues and rock such as Bill Perry, Popa Chubby and Jimmy Vivino. With their newly released CD “Skeleton Key Sessions” those road miles seem to be put to good use. The group has been seen on such high profile gigs as Levon Helm’s Midnight Ramble, Winchester Blues House Festival and the Blues on the Bridge Festival. The youthful energy of the band mixed with seasoned playing makes them a must see trio.

Her milk-and-honey voice and confident guitar picking blend to deliver songs that are honest and real. Amy’s music has “an intoxicating, underlying darkness,” says Chronogram Magazine.

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) COVER CHARGE $ 10.00 MORE INFO CALL(845)692-3227

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!)

The first time they performed here, we were blown away. We play their CD on our house stereo, and people constantly ask us who they are. We must be falling in love with WeMustBe.

Singer Christine Dominguez co-authored this year's Grammy nominated hit song "Airplanes" by B.o.B and is collaborating with artists and producers in the Hip Hop/Urban community where her distinct and soulful vocals are in demand. T. Xiques started gigging as a drummer at age 15 and tours across the US, Canada, Europe and Malaysia with artists like Savoy Brown, Dr.Know and Daryl Jenifer (Bad Brains), Colin Hay and Brother, among others.

They call their sound "Organic Pop", a sound they created with their soulful vocals and an assortment of instruments, from piano and acoustic guitar to 5-string bass and cajon drum. We're really looking forward to the return of WeMustBe.

To quote one reviewer, "...the Bobs still shine, breaking new ground each time they tunnel out of the sanitorium. The twin keys to the group's creative safe deposit box are unflagging dedication to vocal excellence and utter disregard for everything else."

His uncles, and the master craftsmen they employed, created fine instruments, and responded to the specific needs of musicians, promoting innovation and creativity. Bob wishes to honor what they did, by creating his own music on their fine instruments, and to encourage those who continue the family tradition of a devotion to Craftsmanship supporting Musical Excellence.

As a professional musician who lives in the Hudson Valley and has performed locally, regionally, and nationally, Bob Cage has been honored to share the stage with many well-known musicians over the years, including Larry Coryell and Les Paul, and he has appeared twice on Bob Miles' "Miles of Music" TV show.
