Marlboro, NY See Map |
 Siblings Michael, 21 Avery, 17; and Nadia Cole, 14, started singing together in 2007 after their mother, Felicia, was in a head-on car collision with a drunk driver, which landed her in an eight month coma. They serenaded their mother for months, through to her rehabilitation.
They began traveling to nursing homes and hospitals in an effort to help other patients. In 2009 NBC's "America's Got Talent" opened doors for a recording contract, an opportunity to sing in Madison Square Garden, and their very own live music show in Branson, Missouri. The family story was aired nationally in 2010 on Fox News network as a Mother's Day weekend special. Jet Magazine ran the story for their Mother's Day issue, and Gospel Today Magazine picked up the story, as well. |

12 North Division Street
Peekskill, NY See Map |
 Band leader Michael Tate, a two-time Latin Grammy Nominee, says the three D's in the band's name stand for Dynamic, Diverse, and Danceable. Guess that about sums it up! "Rhythm of Life" performs song reminiscent of Marc Anthony, Carlos Santana, Gloria Estefan and other Latin artists.
Curiously enough, Michael Tate and Chris Amelar, founding members of 3D Ritmo de Vida, are not Latinos, and this fact makes the end result much more intriguing. The melodies created by Michael and Chris are fluent, dynamic and contain a distinctive and progressive personality, influenced by Salsa, Reggae, Soca, R&B, Gospel and other Caribbean rhythms.
The band includes Michael (drums), Lenny Underwood (keys) and Chris Amelar (guitar) plus others.
Join us for this exciting night of Rhythm and Blues and Latin Grooves.

Latin | The FALCON
1348 Route 9W

 The hot Latin sounds of Soñando have earned them the reputation as the Hudson Valley's premier Latin band. This spicy blend of music and musicians have performed in clubs, at private funtions, community festivals, benefit concerts, on radio and television, as well as the Puerto Rico Day Parade in NYC, but the band is at home wherever a dance floor can be cleared. Fueled by a fiery rhythm section and high-octane horns, Soñando plays a wide variety of latin styles from Plena and Son to Salsa and Merengue!
"The name of the band is Spanish for "dreaming" but when the hordes come out for Soñando, they don't sleepwalk-they dance. And we're not talking a few perfunctory head-bobs or butt-wiggles, they dance until they go up in flames like, Tula's unquenchable bedroom in the Cuban lyrics above." -Woodstock Times |

More recently, he paired with singer-songwriter Leo Glaser of New Paltz to form "The Golden Eggheads," a duo with a more contemporary folk sound. For the past year he has been performing in and around Ulster County with singer and guitarist Blair Shepard of Stone Ridge, in the Blair Rich Project, which takes a deep dive into the work of John Prine, a prominent and enduring figure from the Chicago folk music scene of the 1960s and '70s. Topics of Newman's songs range from the power of love to the wonder of nature to the hazards of coal mining.
