Art Opening Reception
with The Paintings of David Borenstein
The FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY   See Map
David is an artist who has worked in almost every medium, and can make almost anything his medium. From the structural steel in his welded sculpture to the six-pack liners utilized in his paintings, “found objects” find their way into much of his work.

In many of the works in this show, he goes beyond “repurpose” to the point of “reincarnation”; bringing his bold expression to life in both color and form.

And as a sculptor and architect, David resists the boundaries of dimension even in his paintings and photographs. He refuses to exist in a 2D world.

David brings his artist’s sensibility to his architecture and building practice; he is known for designing residences and commercial spaces that are not only energy-efficient, but also hallmarked by his hand-finished original touches.

David has a BS and an MFA from Bard College and a Master of Architecture from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

In 1985 Osby was invited to join Jack DeJohnette's innovative group, "Special Edition". In 1987, Osby signed his first recording deal with a new German label , JMT (Jazz Music Today).Osby signed with Blue Note Records in 1990.

Peekskill, NY   See Map
Saxophonist-composer Adam Larson began playing saxophone at the age of 11. Described by critic Howard Reich of the Chicago Tribune as "a player for whom the word 'prodigious' was coined", and by Peter Hum of the Ottaw Citizen as "a saxophonist who brings Donny McCaslin and Mark Turner to mind", Larson has garnered numerous awards. As the leader of his own quintet, Larson recently released his debut album "Simple Beauty". The quintet has performed at the Jazz Gallery, the Blue Note, Smalls, Cornelia St Café, the Kitano, JALC, and serveral others.

Having been fortunate to have worked with many musicians over the past years, Larson's quintet includes those deeply invested in the music and his vision: pianist Can Olgun, bassist Chris Talio, drummer Jason Burger, and guitarist Nils Weinhold. "I want my music to connect with as many people as I can. I’m hopeful that the music on this album will have a little something for everyone."

With musical prodigy Myles Mancuso on guitar/vocals and acclaimed drummer Joel Rosenblatt (Spyro Gyra, Robben Ford, Larry Carlton, Oz Noy!)

Both traditional and trailblazing...Highly recommended. ***Blues Review Magazine***

Baum's playing has a deep funk to it, with a big influence of Jimmy Smith. And Baum also brings in all kinds of other things as well - dissonant jazz, alternative rock, R&B. He's not too far off from what John Medeski does with Medeski, Martin and Wood, but with more of a blues streak to it. ***Jim Trageser. Escondido, Calif. ***

N.Y.C. born Steve March-Torme is the son of singer/performer Mel Tormé and the stepson of TV-host/actor Hal March, so there’s definitely a healthy dose of show business DNA in his genes. In the late 1970's, Steve recorded his first LP, Lucky, for United Artists Records, supporting it with a well received 20 city, national concert tour. Upon returning to California, he produced and sang on Liza Minnelli's Columbia Records release Tropical Nights, which became a favorite of the New York dance clubs. He has since released 4 more jazz oriented CDs: Swingin’ At The Blue Moon Bar & Grille, The Night I Fell For You, The Essence of Love and So Far.

Steve has entertained in every venue from intimate jazz clubs to Performing Arts Centers to festivals worldwide (Australia, England, Japan, Canada, to name a few).

His 2012 series of concerts in London were so successful, he’s been asked to come back and perform again this July (2013).

Drew Bordeaux's original tunes weave classic Rock and Blues with today's Pop and Alternative styles to create music that is rich, moving, and relentlessly catchy. NY music reviewer Kevin Johnston wrote, "His guitar work is the real deal... A lot of players have forgotten what the rock solo is for, but Drew knows and he uses it to take the music to a new level. And just to make sure you stay interested, he switches to electric violin."

Join us tonight and every Wednesday for "Burgers & Bordeaux".

**Free Admission**

Mary Halvorson w/ Stephan CrumpThe FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY   See Map
After years of circling one another among mutual friends and colleagues on the New York creative music scene, Halvorson and Crump met in 2011 and immediately made plans to collaborate. From the very first notes, it has been a magical connection. All those notes can be heard on their Intakt debut, Super Eight, released in February 2013.

Guitarist/composer Mary Halvorson has been active in New York since 2002, following jazz studies at Wesleyan University and the New School. Critics have called Ms. Halvorson “NYC’s least-predictable improviser” (Howard Mandel, City Arts) “the most forward-thinking guitarist working right now” (Lars Gotrich, NPR.org)

Memphis-bred, Grammy-nominated bassist/composer Stephan Crump is a rising light on the New York music scene. He has become known for the elegance and purposeful groove of his acoustic and electric bass playing, and for transforming his instrument into a speaking entity with magnetic pull on audiences.

Johnny AThe FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY   See Map
Johnny A. has one of the most eloquent voices in modern music - and he doesn't sing a note. Instead, he channels joy, love, humor, sadness... every aspect of the human experience, through his guitar.

Only the finest musicians have the ability to capture the nuances of life in sound, which puts Johnny in a very exclusive group of six-stringers that includes Les Paul, Wes Montgomery, Jeff Beck, Chet Atkins, and Jimi Hendrix. The secret is his blend of melody, sonic definition, technique and that indefinable-yet-tangible quality called "soul."

And he's eloquently shared that secret on the CDs Sometime Tuesday Morning (2001), Get Inside (2004), and the instructional DVD Taste, Tone, Space (2006), which are approaching combined sales of 150,000 copies. All the virtues of Johnny A.'s playing are in abundant display on One November Night, a brand new DVD/CD set recorded live at Scullers in his hometown of Boston, MA.

Music on another level...
with Drew Bordeaux
Acoustic, Rock (modern)
12 Grapes Music & Wine Bar
12 North Division Street
Peekskill, NY   See Map
Drew Bordeaux has many fans. 12 Grapes is one of his biggest.

Whether playing solo with an acoustic guitar or screaming Hendrix-style riffs on a violin, Drew never fails to captivate and entertain an audience. His original tunes weave classic Rock and Blues with today's Pop and Alternative styles to create music that is rich, moving, and relentlessly catchy.

NY music reviewer Kevin Johnston wrote, "His guitar work is the real deal... A lot of players have forgotten what the rock solo is for, but Drew knows and he uses it to take the music to a new level. And just to make sure you stay interested, he switches to electric violin."

Despite all of his achievements, Drew is first and foremost a songwriter. He has composed dozens of songs performed at an impressive list of venues. Drew's first EP, "Live Your Way", has deeply personal lyrics and catchy melodies.
