with Isabella Englert
Singer-Songwriter
The FALCON
1348 Route 9W
Marlboro, NY   See Map
A high school senior in Rockland County, NY, Isabella Englert, has been studying piano since she was four years old, and began to play the guitar, casually, in eighth grade. She was singing and writing music in her freshman year of high school. When she was accepted into the competitive Grammy Camp program, she realized music was her passion. She attended singing and songwriting workshops at The Berklee School of Music, and has been accepted at both Berklee and the University of Miami’s Frost School of Music to study songwriting. Last fall she recorded her first EP of original songs entitled “Closer to Roses,” now available on iTunes.

Chris Brown
Singer-Songwriter
BeanRunner Cafe
201 S. Division Street @ Esther
Peekskill, NY   See Map
With his distinct bass tone, Christopher Brown has pleased audiences for more than two decades with his repertoire of musical stories. Chris' special view of the world is portrayed honestly and humorously through his innovative, story-telling lyric, enlivened by a unique blend of folk, country and rock & roll. A reviewer recently wrote, "his sound might best be described as James Taylor meets Johnny Cash."

Chris calls his new album "Characterist". That's because he is not only a singer/songwriter, but an artist/illustrator who can capture a subject's essence through caricature. With a few strokes, he reveals hints of a character's nature or temperament, their mystery or charm. He does the same thing with lyric and melody, outlining and shading characters and moments, even yearnings and states of mind. His deep rumble of a voice can be as direct as an approaching train, yet warm and forgiving.

Chris will be joined by master guitarist and composer Peter Calo.

Scarborough Fair - A Simon & Garfunkel Experience
with The Guthrie Brothers
Acoustic
12 Grapes Music & Wine Bar
12 North Division Street
Peekskill, NY   See Map
If you grew up in the '60's & '70's -- or even if you didn't -- you are probably a fan of Simon & Garfunkel. We most certainly are.

Jeb and Jock Guthrie, aka The Guthrie Brothers, have been playing and singing together since they were young kids. Performing in a number of garage bands and bar bands, they eventually came to cherish their "natural sibling vocal blend."

"We knew the first time we played a Simon and Garfunkel song that we had a natural and almost spiritual connection to it. Our voices blended effortlessly into that S&G signature sound, and the overwhelming audience reaction to our performance confirmed our feelings. Since that first performance, we have worked to perfect our tribute to these two amazing artists."

The Guthrie Brothers' authentic replication of the S&G songs we all know and love will blow you away. Don't miss this special performance!

**$10 Entertainment Fee or Free with dinner entree.**

RIVER SPIRIT MUSIC HOUSE CONCERTS
Hastings-on-Hudson, NY   See Map
Over a career that spans more than a 15 years and has won her a devoted worldwide fan base, Klein—who possesses what Mojo magazine calls “one of those voices you want to crawl up close to the speakers to listen to” and a knack for writing songs that the Cape Cod Times has described as “fully realized, finely observed and deeply felt”—has pursued a remarkable creative evolution that’s seen her dig ever deeper for resonant emotional insights, while continuing to refine her eloquently melodic, effortlessly accessible songcraft.

The son of a welder from rural New England, Rod Picott is a masterful songwriter and soulful singer who carries with him as fine a suitcase of songs as you'll find anywhere. Slaid Cleaves, Ray Wylie Hubbard and Fred Eaglesmith have recorded Rod Picott songs. A former construction worker who hung up his tools when he released his debut CD in 2000, Picott has carved a career for himself with a run of 6 beautifully crafted self released CDs over the last 13 years.
