Composer David Alpher draws on his rich musical background in their songs, with a particular emphasis on jazz/blues, melody-driven ballads, and lushly imagined pastiche. The Kingston Festival of the Arts is presenting a whole summer of fun Thursdays-Sundays at the San Severia historic Belgian performance tent in midtown Kingston.

Clearwater's Great Hudson River Revival
Croton Point Park, 1A Croton Point Ave.
Croton-on-Hudson, NY   See Map
Vieux Farka Touré's latest album was recorded as an homage to his homeland. Being that his native Mali has been splintered by territorial fighting between Tuareg and Islamic rebels since January 2012, his new album, Mon Pays (My Country), is devoted to reminding the world about the beauty and culture of his homeland. The album is out on May 28, 2013 on Six Degrees Records with an extensive North American tour starting in June. ‘For me it is a statement for the world that this land is for the sons and daughters of Mali, not for Al Qaeda or any militants. This land is for peace and beauty, rich culture and tolerance.This is our heritage, what we must always fight to protect in any way that we can. For me, that means making music that reminds the world of who we are.

Guy Davis
Blues
The FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY   See Map
Whether Guy Davis is appearing on “Late Night With Conan O’Brien” or nationally syndicated radio programs such as Garrison Keillor’s, “A Prairie Home Campanion”, “Mountain Stage” or David Dye’s,“World Café” Guy feels the instinctive desire to give each listener his ‘all’.

"You could call Guy Davis a musical child of Taj Mahal. But, in truth, he’s the son of Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee, two of the most famous black actors of their generation. The talent apple didn’t fall far from the tree but did land in a different orchard." --Tony Peyser, Santa Monica Mirror

"Davis’ folksy and humble stage presence, combined with his humorous monologues, made one feel that this was not a concert, but rather, an impromptu performance on a front porch down in some southern swamp. Indeed, at times Davis had the audience singing, clapping and stomping their feet." --Daily Herald Tribune, Grand Prairie, Alberta

Marlboro, NY   See Map
Teri Roiger will be singing the music of Abbey Lincoln on JUNETEENTH (June 19th), the annual holiday celebrating the announcement of the abolition of slavery in the U.S. Teri will be singing songs off her new CD plus songs from the albums Lincoln recorded with Max Roach during the civil rights movement: WE INSIST: FREEDOM NOW SUITE (1960) and STRAIGHT AHEAD (1961).

WE INSIST was the first of several jazz albums voicing the growing demand for equal rights with the vision to perform it on the centennial of the Emancipation Proclamation (1963).

STRAIGHT AHEAD also captures the spirit of the rising civil rights movement and showcases Lincoln’s talents as a lyricist, mixing personal confession with larger social and political implications. Her ability to express human struggle through the beauty of music continued with her own compositions recorded by Roiger on her latest CD.

The original music they present is a unique melting pot of Americana. If you listen close to "Roadside Attraction " the title cut from their bluegrass charged CD you can hear an Everly Brothers chord vamp mixed in with a classic Bluegrass "G" run, mixed in with an Irish Scottish fiddle tune. This is only a piece of the puzzle that makes up this musical hybrid. The stories that float along the top of these melodic waves in three part harmony are the ship the band is sailing to complete the picture.

Rhinebeck, NY   See Map
Come out for some soul-jazz and blues with the JB3 Trio. In the tradition of Booker T & the Mgs and the Meters, Jeremy and his cohorts will be bringing the funk to the ArtBar!

With the bad mofo Matt Finck on guitar and ridiculously scary Chris Reddan on drums.

Hang on to your spleens, this is going to be epic.!!!

Jb (Hammond Organ) toured for over 6 years with Grammy nominated singer Shemekia Copeland. With Chris Reddan on drums and Matt Finck on guitar/vocals.

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. ***

Blues. Rock
The FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY   See Map
Johnny's work as a sideman has taken him around the world, including a seven-year stint leading legendary J. Geils Band frontman Peter Wolf's group and also co-producing Wolf's solo album Long Line, which garnered a four-star review in Rolling Stone. 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.

Gibson Custom introduced the Johnny A. Signature Model in 2003. "Creating an artist signature model guitar is not something we take lightly," says Gibson senior VP Rick Gembar. "But sometimes a player comes along who is not only a musical innovator and artist of the highest-caliber, but has innovative ideas about designing a totally new instrument. And that's Johnny, who just knocked us off our feet."

Johnny A. has one of the most eloquent voices in modern music - and he doesn't sing a note.

Winard Harper is one of the hardest working drummers in jazz today, leading his hard-swinging sextet and swinging as an in-demand sideman - working and record with Joe Lovano, Avery Sharpe, Steve Turre, Wycliffe Gordon, Frank Wess, Ray Bryant, and Jimmy Heath.

Jeli Posse consists of vocalist Jazzmeia Horn, trumpeter Bruce Harris, horn players Jonathan Beshay and JoVan Alexander, pianists Roy Asaf and Tadataka Unno, bassist Stephen Porter and percussionist Alioune Faye.

World
PS21: Performance Spaces for the 21st Century
2980 Route 66, Chatham, NY 12037
Chatham, NY   See Map
For Zal Idrissa Sissokho music is about reminding us of who we are, keeping us connected to our history, and sharing between cultures. Sissokho is from Senegal in West Africa but has lived in Montreal since 1999. He comes from a family of griots, the African storytellers who transmit the tradition and history of the Mande Empire from one generation to the next. Sissokho has performed internationally both solo and with his band Buntalo.

“The kora is an interesting instrument. In the tradition, it is played for the Kings.  But today, the kora has become one of the most revolutionary instruments. You find it in every style in the music in the world. You can find it in jazz, in Afro-Manding, Afro-Brazilian, hip-hop, Samba, salsa…” - Zal Idrissa Sissokho
