Singer-Songwriter
Towne Crier Cafe

The New York Times called international recording artist Nenad Bach "a cross between Lou Reed and Elton John." Nenad has performed with Bono, The Edge, Luciano Pavarotti, Rick Danko and Richie Havens, among others. Nenad played at Woodstock in '94 and he recently completed a tour of Australia, Japan and China. Two of his albums reached #1 in Europe, and to date he has sold over 1 million records. His current CD, All I Want is Freedom, is a potent shot of rock infused with heart & soul, packed with provocative lyrics calling back the ethos of the sixties; unafraid to question, determined to seek answers, in a rousing call to action that electrifies, galvanizes, and at the same time mesmerizes.

He stands on stage holding his Martin OM 28, stomping his foot, singing superb songs about ruby red dresses, drunk roosters, ex-slaves, window washers, Polish Immigrants, Tinian Island, rutabagas and the cycles of life & death. He sings about the thread that runs through us all. Artful, intense, and often transcendent, imaginative, and extremely engaging — if you love a moving song and magical madness, Joe Crookston delivers it all….the music, the lyrics, the energy, and the passion for exceptionaly well written songs. He loves his audience, and it shows. Joe Crookston….Born and raised in rural Ohio, with Hungarian roots, Polkas Polkas…and eastern European food..A little bit of Gypsy soul in this guy…Whether it’s his hypnotic guitar sound, bubbling banjo, or short story lyrics, his music draws from his urban adventures and his rural Ohio roots, exuding a remarkable timeless quality. Haven’t seen him perform?? You’ll be glad you did.

New Paltz, NY   See Map
Ablaye Cissoko and Volker Goetze had a serendipitous meeting during rehearsals of the African-European Jazz Orchestra in Saint-Louis, Senegal, where they'd been invited to open for the legendary Youssou N'Dour. Senegalese singer/kora player Ablaye Cissoko's love of jazz and German trumpeter Volker Goetze's fascination with African music made them natural partners for collaboration. Nominated for a 2009 Independent Music Award for Best Song, Cissoko and Goetze fuse the musical cultures of traditional Senegalese folk songs with western jazz in a profound and stirring musical relationship. Portions of the proceeds generated by the sales of their recording, SIRA, go to TOSTAN, a community-led organization benefiting African women's health and human rights.

A funky night of original music
with Daphne Willis, featuring guests JP Patrick and Dave McDowell
Singer-Songwriter
12 Grapes Music & Wine Bar
12 North Division Street
Peekskill, NY   See Map
Daphne Willis is a young, fresh, inspired singer/songwriter who's been touring nationally to promote her latest CD, "Because I Can". Daphne's music has been met with critical acclaim. The title of Daphne's CD answers the question: "Why does she move from a saucy soul/funk gumbo to punchy pop/rock to VH1-ready piano balladry, all before the album's halfway mark?" Because she can. They're calling this CD "the defining work of a young artist who matters."

Tonight, Daphne will be joined by two musicians who are frequent performers at 12 Grapes, saxophonists JP Patrick and Dave McDowell. They'll be performing Daphne's original music, and we think it's going to be phenomenal!

We're honored that 12 Grapes is a stop on Daphne's national tour. If you love original music, great musicianship and outstanding vocals, do not miss this performance.
