with Willa McCarthy Band, Josh Stacy, Scott Milici, Doug Abramson, Jerry Teters | The FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY See Map |
 Hudson Valley singer/songwriter Willa McCarthy debuted her new band at The Falcon in early September to a standing-room only crowd and everyone had such a good time, we asked her to come back for a repeat performance.
McCarthy has been an active performer in the Hudson Valley for more than a decade, most notably as a member of The Chris O'Leary Band.
She met acclaimed and award-winning singer/harp player Chris O’Leary a few years before he became the lead singer for Levon Helm's Barn Burners. When O’Leary launched his own band in 2008 and invited her to join, she jumped at the chance. Of McCarthy, O'Leary has said, "she's my favorite person in the world to sing with."
McCarthy’s vocals are powerful and soulful and her band plays a mix of blues, funk, R&B and rock—including original and cover material—and features Josh Stacy on guitar, Scott Milici on keys, Doug Abramson on bass and Jerry Teters on drums. |

The record featured fusions of jazz, rock and the tropical rhythms of Williams’ heritage and was an instant chart success- reaching #3 on Billboard’s “Contemporary Jazz Chart.” Bernie Williams raised his musical game even further with the release of his second album Moving Forward. Featuring guest appearances by Bruce Springsteen, Jon Secada, Dave Koz, and an All-Star cast of renowned studio musicians, Moving Forward debuted as Billboard’s #2 Contemporary Jazz album in the country, and spawned two consecutive Billboard #1 singles, Go For It, and Ritmo de Otono.

 Hard Soul frontman Johnny Salka will be performing at The Anchor in Kingston, NY on Friday, August 22nd as part of his summer acoustic tour. Also on the bill is The Brother Ghost and Lights Divide.
Hard Soul made their debut in late 2011, showcasing their take of what songwriter-driven rock n’ roll music should be all about. Led by frontman Johnny Salka, the band channels the guitar & lyrical stylings of Thin Lizzy, the hooks of The Beatles, and the emotion of Oasis, bringing back vintage rock with a modern-flare. The mighty Hard Soul delivered their debut LP 'Heart of Plaster', featuring 10 brand-new guitar-driven tracks inspired by life on the road, heartbreak and sacrifice, and the search for a place to call home, all set to a mighty back-beat with heartfelt lyrics soaring over a classic-rock inspired soundscape.

 Ladies Day is dedicated to discovering and performing the compositions of classic and contemporary jazz women. After an Aha! Moment, when vocalist MJ Territo realized that so many of the little-known tunes she loved to sing were written by women, she began to think about putting a set of the tunes together and playing them with other women musicians. When she met pianist Linda Presgrave, another collector and performer of compositions by women, she put the project in motion. Since 2011 the ensemble has performed in venues in and around New York City. A sampling of their repertoire includes music by jazz masters Mary Lou Williams, Abbey Lincoln, Marian McPartland, and Peggy Lee; works by contemporary songwriters such as Meredith D'Ambrosio and Nellie McKay; and original compositions and collaborations by the band's members.
$10 admission.

Rob and Mishti are each bandleaders in their own right, and tonight they're coming together to bring us a groove and funk that's like no other. Rob performs with many of the Hudson Valley's finest musicians, and is head of Drummers Collective School of Music in New York City. Mishti's music has been described as "coasting between a bottom-heavy Zeppelin Rock, Blues-infused grooves, Thelonius Monk-inspired guitar work, and a Nina Simone-style wail-to-whisper." Rounding out the band is Candullo and Nolan... an absolute killer rhythm section!
The band will be performing Blues-infused Rock from Michael Jackson to Pearl Jam and everything in between.
