Marlboro, NY   See Map
Robt Sarazin Blake’s new Double Album ‘Recitative’ was recorded in the Hudson Valley at The Building in Marlboro, NY (The original home of The Falcon).

‘I didn’t know I was searching for The Hudson Valley Sound until I stumbled inside it. Lee, Connor, Brandon and Will climbed on stage after my gig at The Falcon and I immediately knew I was hearing the sound of my new record. Dylan and The Band started it. Van Morrison came searching for it. Jimi Hendrix, John Sebastian, Paul Butterfield, Janis Joplin, Maria Muldaur and so many more made music in this valley where the drums, organ, horns and guitars all put the swirl around the rhymes.’

‘Recitative’, in 16 tracks, investigates Couples, US drone attacks, Work, Single Women, The Corner of Saturday Night, The Other End of Fck It, and The Rock & Roll Dream.

Twenty years into recording and writing, Blake celebrates his unusual songs forms, which land between spoken word, folk song, rock song & theatrical installation...

Marlboro, NY   See Map
Hipbone Records recording artist Alexis P Suter with Ray Grappone, drummer/percussionist, producer/vocalist Vicki Bell and Dave Keyes on keyboards/vocals deliver their mix of Gospel, Blues, Traditional, poignant, and time-honored American music, up-close and personal.

Blues Music Award nominee Alexis P. Suter is a powerhouse bass/baritone vocalist with the ability to go to "that other place" where singers go when they are lost in the music. It is no wonder the late B.B. King and the late Levon Helm were big fans. Suter and her band have played nearly 100 of Helm’s shows in Woodstock NY and opened for “The King” when he visited her hometown of NYC.

The Ministers of Sound feature Ray Grappone (APSB, Buster Poindexter, Levon Helm) on drums and percussion, Vicki Bell (APSB, Open Door, Corey Daye) on vocals and percussion, and Dave Keyes (Smokey Joe's Cafe, Odetta, Bo Diddley, David Johansen, Popa Chubby).

Peekskill, NY   See Map
Rooted in the tradition of activist folk music, Hudson Valley Sallie has an unending chain that goes back centuries and spans the globe. We are dedicated to keeping alive some of the oldest songs, and introducing some of the newest. In fact, each set typically includes some songs more than a century old and some less than a year old. While harmonic patterns and rhyme styles have evolved over the decades, we are not afraid to experiment with tradition. Our goal is to make the oldest songs sound fresh, and to make the newest feel like you've always known them. Most remarkable of all is how little many of the themes have changed - peace, poverty, and justice were the heart of the movements then, and still are today. Our unique combination of musical sensibilities produces a new voice that adds one more link in the chain.
