Kayln Rock
Acoustic
Taste Budd's Chocolate and Coffee Cafe
40 West Market Street
Red Hook, NY   See Map
kayln rock’s songs come straight from her soul. Although she’s been writing and performing for less than five years, the songs she sings have the depth and polish of a life-long performer. She can charm you with a whimsical ode like, “Peanut Butter Jam,” a tune that hides its vulnerability behind a façade of ironic humor or break your heart with the painful honesty of “Valentine,” a song so full of longing that it’s almost hard to listen to. “I like being around people and don’t take myself too seriously”, Rock says, “But I also like being alone to explore my deeper emotions. I want to create songs that are serious and substantial.”

Richie Kaye
Acoustic, Singer-Songwriter
Taste Budd's Chocolate and Coffee Cafe
40 West Market Street
Red Hook, NY   See Map
Richie Kaye is a singer-songwriter-guitarist following a tradition that stretches back to the troubadours. One man, one guitar, one voice. Compared by one critic to the Fado Portoghese, but clearly American in tone, he writes and performs original music based on his awareness -- with all its faults -- of the True and Real in the style of the Here and Now.

The music on he plays is youthful in spirit, expressing a tragicomic vitality within a strange and subtle harmoniousness. It is American music for the new century: “educated rock ‘n roll” with a solo 6-string.

Indeed, the melodies he has discovered are always singable, creating eerie harmonies floating over unusual chord changes that still seem somehow familiar. The lyrics he hears convey an exquisite poesy intended to reflect a soulful intelligence greater than man.

One man, one guitar, one Voice.

Peekskill, NY   See Map
Andrew Craig, 2010 Billboard and Unisong International Songwriting Contest Winner for Jazz/Blues category and featured on 107.1WHUD on Catherine Micheals show is performing for the benefit of JDRF.

"...I find Andrew's music to be quite genuine. After an enjoyable listening to his new EP "Beautiful You" late one night I found in it qualities that could be expressed easily with the metaphor of a dessert wine or perhaps more accurately an espresso. The defining characteristics of espresso include a thick consistency and a serving size that is usually measured in shots. It is both complex and volatile. This beautiful little CD possesses all of these traits and then some. It is warm. It is cozy. It satisfies the sweet tooth of the soul". Rick Rock, Director/Founder, Tribes Hill.

Blues
Brian's Backyard BBQ
1665 RTE 211 EAST
Middletown, NY   See Map
Rick Estrin ranks among the very best harp players, singers and songwriters in the blues world. His work on the reeds is deep in the tradition of harmonica masters Sonny Boy Williamson II and Little Walter Jacobs, while at the same time pushing that tradition forward. The... Associated Press calls his harp playing "endlessly impressive."In addition to his harmonica and vocal skills, Rick Estrin is a songwriter of unparalleled talent. Critics have compared his original songs to the work of Cab Calloway, Louis Jordan, Willie Dixon and Leiber and Stoller. And his hipster, street-smart vocals are the perfect vehicle for driving those songs home. Blues Revue says, "Estrin has created some of the finest blues songs of any artist on the planet. His carefully wrought lyrics penetrate human weakness with the precision of a boxer, though more often than not, he chooses to leave you laughing after the blow's been struck."

Maria Muldaur is best known world wide for her '74 mega-hit "Midnight at the Oasis," which received several Grammy nominations, and enshrined her forever in the hearts of Baby Boomers everywhere; but despite her considerable Pop Music success, her 39-year career could best be described as a long and adventurous odyssey through the various forms of American Roots Music. During the folk revival of the early '60s, she began exploring and singing early Blues, Bluegrass, Appalachian "Old Timey" music, beginning her recording career in 1963 with the Even Dozen Jug Band and shortly thereafter, joining the very popular Jim Kweskin Jug Band, touring, and recording with them throughout the '60s. Electric Rubyfish has been playing music together since 2006 – they call their music ‘Catskill Mountain Folk Rock’.

In April, Pete celebrated with us for the release of his new CD, "The Levee", Pete's 2nd studio recording. "I'm very proud of the record. I think it's a great overview of my roots guitar playing, songwriting and evolution, and I think it will stand the test of time." It was produced by Grammy-nominated Blues guitarist Duke Robillard, who's worked with many music industry legends. Duke wrote, "To those who don't know [Petey] yet, you will soon!"
