 “Indie-voiced Kristina Koller mixes jazz and bohemia…Gotta see her!” - JazzWeekly
Vocalist, composer and arranger Kristina Koller will present music from her debut album ‘Perception’. As one of the most applauded rising stars in jazz, Koller has developed quickly into a highly individual vocalist, melding jazz, funk, R&B and alt-rock sounds into her songs. Kristina arranges tunes in unique ways, knowing that adding to the legacy of jazz is much more important than recreating the performances of others. The New York native culled her musical chops in the NYC jazz scene, performing at venerable jazz haunts such as Smalls, Smoke, Minton’s, Mezzrow as well as The Apollo Theater. Kristina was a featured Discovery Artist at the 2017 Mid-Atlantic Jazz Festival and her quintet were semi-finalists in the 2017 DCJazzPrix competition.
Koller is a very original contemporary jazz vocalist, one that anyone interested in jazz, or for that matter progressive music, needs to hear.

 Blasphemy! "The Ed Palermo Big Band is more popular than The Beatles." Band leader, Ed Palermo, refuses to apologize for something so blatantly obvious.
"...one of the greatest musicians and arrangers in the world." -- Christian McBride
"I can’t remember the last time that a concert left me so breathless. The entire evening was a stunning balance of musical precision, passion and power." Greg Haymes/Nippertown
Crazy times call for outrageous music, and few jazz ensembles are better prepared to meet the surreality of this reality-TV-era than the antic and epically creative Ed Palermo Big Band.
Nothing demonstrates the ensemble’s ongoing vitality better than the stellar cast of players, with many longtime collaborators. Many of these top-shelf musicians have been in the band for more than a decade, and they bring wide ranging experience, expert musicianship and emotional intensity to Palermo’s music.

Nick Panken has been singing his songs with his band Spirit Family Reunion for the better part of the past decade. His songs are bare in structure, with lyrical content evoking the commentary of Woody Guthrie and ruminations of Leonard Cohen. His recent solo work presents a more stripped-down approach, with material old and new furnished simply with fingerpicked electric guitar and occasional harmonica.

Peekskill, NY See Map |
 "Get Your Wings" captures Aerosmith in their '70s-style heyday, when they were known as "America's answer to the Rolling Stones."
Their live show is absolutely explosive, uncannily capturing the raw, ragged, swaggerin', scarf wearin', down-and-dirty REAL Rock 'n Roll classic Aerosmith.
Get Your Wings also recreates the sounds of Tyler and Perry's biggest hits from the past three decades, too. If you've got an Aerosmith jones, this is the band to see! "Get Your Wings is the one and only Aero tribute band to experience." -More Sugar Magazine

The SAINTS OF SWING, along with fabulous Gospel singer MISS RENE BAILEY (who has performed with Louis Armstrong and Sam Cooke - among many others!) puts together a terrific 2-hour concert of GOSPEL classics. These are the songs René grew up with when she was a kid in Georgia.
Let the good feelings and joy in!
Amy Helm presents her 2nd Annual Woodshed Residency Tour, Mondays at The Falcon.
The tour includes Tuesdays at Rockwood II in NYC, and Wednesdays at The Parlor Room in Northampton, MA. 
It’s that moment when the house lights go down and the audience erupts: a drumbeat punches through the darkness, and the stage lights- almost blindingly bright at first- reveal a killer band ready to unleash a catalog of classic hits like none other. That familiar snarl of a slide guitar rips open the room, and you know you’re about to experience a bad-to-the-bone icon at his very best. George Thorogood And The Destroyers are throwing a Rock Party for 2017, and you’re invited. From coast to coast, the critics agree: “I’m happy to say, after all these years, that George is still ‘Bad To The Bone’ and he’s never let go of the true spirit of rock ‘n roll!” says the L.A. Daily News; “Thorogood is a guitar-blazing revivalist whose enthusiasm and showmanship make music fresh,” says Baltimore Sun: “He’s got charisma and personality to burn, a fact that becomes evident the moment he walks on stage,” says Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. 
The Falcon Underground's SIGN UP and SIT IN Session is creating a "home" for traditional blues and roots music with a strict "no pedals" policy and philosophy to keep it raw, and true to the original music.
Rodriguez, the legendary singer/songwriter known only by his surname, is a self-taught guitarist. He began performing in bars and clubs around the city of Detroit in the 1960s, as the city suffered post-industrial urban decay. It was there that he recorded two studio albums, Cold Fact (1969) and Coming from Reality (1971), both of which went unnoticed in the U.S. and eventually turning Rodriguez’s efforts elsewhere.
Three women at the forefront of Austin's music legacy, Carolyn Wonderland, Patrice Pike and Shelley King will hold court, tell stories and perform acoustic versions of the songs that put them on the national scene. These extraordinary women bring substance and grit to their soulful, soaring vocals in a trio performance where each backs the other up with intense, goosebump-worthy effect.
plenty of room to dance
great food
