Melvin Seals has been a powerful presence in the music industry for over 30 years with a long-established reputation as a performer, recording artist and producer. Melvin is most revered for his powerful, high-spirited, Hammond B-3 organ, and keyboards in the Jerry Garcia Band. Melvin spun his B-3 magic with the Jerry Garcia Band for 18 years and in doing so helped pioneer and define what has now become “Jam Band Music”. From blues to funk to rock to jazz, Melvin Seals serves up a tasty mix with a little R&B and gospel thrown in to spice things up. Melvin and JGB bring an intuitive, expressive style, soul, spontaneity and remarkable chops to the table. John Kadlecik on lead guitar and vocal duties, John-Paul McLean’s savory bass, Jeremy Hoenig on the drums and, of course, a heapin’ helpin’ of the wizard’s magic on Hammond B-3 Organ and keyboards. | ||

Thursday 7:00 pm | Sara Milonovich & Daisycutter | "Northeast" | The FALCON 1348 Route 9W Marlboro, NY See Map |
Sara Milonovich & Daisycutter perform music from their new album "Northeast" (2021)
“Northeast throws down the country gauntlet, representing a rural heartache to rival any Nashvillian, sad-luck troubadour...The pluck and twill of strings weave around the beat as it barrels into the tragic and beautiful crush of human frailty.” - Chronogram Magazine “[A] cathartic song about last good-byes and the perplexities of the human condition…” - Americana Highways “Indie roots-rock with an edge” - Nippertown "What Nashville would sound like if it was just a bit smarter." - The Daily Freeman http://www.saramilonovich.com New York alt-country singer/songwriter/fiddler Sara Milonovich offers an ode to the blue collar north on her album Northeast. With her band Daisycutter, she explores down-and-out cities, abandoned farms, rural poverty, substance abuse, heartbreak, resilience, and hope - all things the Northeast shares with the rest of blue collar America…except that it also happens to be a lot colder. Based in New York’s Hudson Valley, this "downtown/upstate" band combines a cinematic city view with a bracing dose of rural realism, fusing indie roots-rock with an alt-country barbed wire edge. Fronted by singer/fiddler Milonovich, Daisycutter blazes a unique musical trail with their "mix of bluegrass and a twinge of political-punk attitude and lyrics." (Jeff Sweatman, The Corner) Milonovich, who grew up on a working farm in rural northern New York, was leading her own band by age nine (around the time she learned to drive a tractor.) She has won awards for fiddling, singing and composing, and has performed throughout North and South America, Europe and beyond. https://youtu.be/PdbIHQuElmg | ||

FEATURING: Gabriel Butterfield / Drums, Vocals Jimmy Eppard / Guitar, Vocals Jim Curtin / Bass, Vocals Special Guests: Eric Finland / Keyboards, Hammond B3 Organ (Joe Lewis Walker, Blues Brothers) Jackson Kinchiloe / Harmonica, Vocals (Sister Sparrow) Dave Snakeman Runyan / Harmonica, Vocals (James Cotton, Blues Hall of Fame 2012, Michael Packer Blues Band) http://www.gabrielbutterfield.com/ The eldest son of the late, great Chicago Harmonica player Paul Butterfield, the first white Harmonica player to develop a style original and powerful enough to place him in the pantheon of Blues greats. Gabriel Butterfield grew up on the road, on tour with his father; the music is literally in his blood. Like his father, music is the driving passion of Gabriel's life. In 2012, again residing in Woodstock, New York, Gabriel launched multiple projects, a documentary film on Paul Butterfield, and a working band that celebrates his father's music. Gabriel Butterfield's two band configurations share a handpicked line-up. "These seasoned music veterans have all come together in mutual respect for my father and to honor one of music’s legendary pioneers and influences, for which I am very touched and forever grateful,” states Gabriel. | ||

By re-imagining his music and channeling his persona I try to bring that fantasy to life.”Buy Tickets | ||
Friday 8:00 pm | Vanilla Fudge, Paramount Hudson Valley Theater Rock (classic) | Paramount Hudson Valley Theater 1008 Brown St. Peekskill, NY, NY See Map |
Influencing the likes of Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, and Van Halen, Vanilla Fudge has certainly secured a place in Rock n’ Roll history!
In the summer of 1967, amongst the “sit ins”, protest marches and “happenings”, Vanilla Fudge released a remake of The Supremes “You Keep Me Hangin’ On”, scored a top ten hit and never looked back. Charting five other tracks on the Billboard Top 100 over the next three years, Vanilla Fudge were architects of a new musical style that included psychedelia, rock, soul music and gospel. They were, and are masters of reinterpreting other artists hit songs, and their effect on the soon to explode late 60’s “heavy metal” scene was undeniable. Their contribution and legacy remains intact, and with a 50th year anniversary in 2017, “The Fudge” as their devotees refer to them, are hopeful for a nod by the Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame!

Sunday 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm | Jess Kramer performs Live Acoustic, Singer-Songwriter | BeanRunner Cafe 201 S. Division Street @ Esther Peekskill, NY See Map |
Jesse Kramer's story is as authentic as it is unpredictable. It's a story of struggle, adversity, and rebirth; a story still in its preface as the young 25-year-old singer-songwriter from Indianapolis - now residing in Nashville - seeks to kickstart the official rebirth of rock n' roll for the modern world.
Jesse always knew that music and singing were his only genuine means of communicating his personal thoughts and feelings on life. He began writing and recording his own music at the age of 14. At the age of 17, his strictly religious household gave him an ultimatum: give up music or be kicked out. He chose the latter. Since then, Jesse was personally invited by the Executive Producers to participate in 'The Four: Battle for Stardom', has produced and released his first 5-song EP, "Breakthrough", and was invited to audition for NBC's 'America’s Got Talent'. Jesse is now touring the country, thrilling audiences with his stellar guitar playing and wonderfully emotive vocals. Admission is $10 at the door. Reserve seating here | ||

Headlining the program is the World Premiere of John Musto’s new Piano Quintet, inspired by the life and loss of a close friend. The iconic Leonard Bernstein’s early, rarely-heard Piano Trio is an artistic coming-of-age of an extravagantly-gifted teenager in the 1930s. And the prodigious Gabriela Lena Frank’s Hilos (Threads) recalls and reimagines the cultures and customs of her Peruvian ancestry. Join us for an exciting and vibrant afternoon. Ticket holders are invited to a post-performance ‘OFFBEAT/ONSTAGE’ talk with the artists. Tickets and more information | ||

![]() Sunday 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm | Music While You Dine with Kurt Henry & Cheryl Lambert Multi-genre original, Acoustic. kurtstuff | Towne Crier Cafe 379 Main Street Beacon, NY See Map |
Kurt and Cheryl (Kurt Henry and Cheryl Lambert: members of Dog Knows) are one of the most compelling eclectic acoustic—and sometimes electric—duets to ride the musical range since Ian and Sylvia took the folk world by storm in the ‘60s, and, like Ian and Sylvia, their repertoire is wide-ranging, and perhaps more so when one considers the range of Kurt’s guitar styles (acoustic/electric) and Cheryl’s tasty harmonica accompaniments. Like Ian and Sylvia, they also project an uptown vibe that never conflicts with the rural elements in their music. And so, they move from Bossa Nova, to R&B, right into bluegrass, Brit/American balladry and genre-bending originals that reflect the respect they show for today’s wider ranging, more educated musical audiences. www.kurthenry.com | ||
Sunday 7:00 pm | Sunday Evening Jazz with Orrin Evans Trio | The FALCON 1348 Route 9W Marlboro, NY See Map |
Presented by: Absolutely Live Entertainment. Curated by Danny Melnick
Orrin Evans' 2021 album, The Magic of Now (Smoke Sessions)...."the egoless bandleader spotlights Immanuel Wilkins, Vicente Archer and Bill Stewart....the interplay between the four is so incandescent that it’s hard not to marvel at the magic of being in the moment." Levels · Orrin Evans | The Magic of Now: https://youtu.be/xUW6N4YKTCE https://youtu.be/sUaEj-HQxlI https://orrinevansmusic.com/ For more than two decades, Orrin Evans has made an art form of the unexpected. With more than 25 albums to his credit, Evans has become the model of a fiercely independent artist who’s made a habit of rattling the jazz world’s confining cages. That determination has paid off in accolades like topping the “Rising Star Pianist” category in the 2018 DownBeat Critics Poll. As a daring pianist, Evans combines raw-edged vigor and left-field nuance into a sound wholly his own. As an adventurous composer he traverses stylistic boundaries with abandon, drawing on full-throttle swing, deep rooted blues, expressive soul or bracing excursions into the avant-garde. As an audacious bandleader, he delights in daring fellow musicians to take bold risks, whether in mutable small group settings or his raucous Captain Black Big Band. As an inventive collaborator, his projects range from the nerve-rattling collective trio Tarbaby to the latest twist in his never predictable story, becoming the first new member to join The Bad Plus in the band’s nearly 20-year history. Evans’ variety of collaborations is a who’s-who of modern jazz including Nicholas Payton, Sean Jones, Oliver Lake, JD Allen, Christian McBride, Eric Revis, Buster Williams, Karriem Riggins, Bill Stewart, Nasheet Waits, Kevin Eubanks and Kurt Rosenwinkel, among countless others. In 2018 Evans relaunched his Imani Records label with a newfound focus on projects by young, innovative musicians, beginning with albums by saxophonist Caleb Wheeler Curtis and bassist Jonathan Michel. He’s also produced recordings by JD Walter, Denise King, Joanna Pascale, Sharel Cassity, and Eric Revis. Evans pays homage to his mentors and influences while passing the torch to new generations. He’s recently paid homage to the late Geri Allen alongside drummer Terri Lyne Carrington and a celebration of the centennial of Thelonious Monk at Duke University, along with curating concert series at Philly’s South and New York’s Smoke. | ||

Monday 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm | Copland House: UNDERSCORED - William Grant Still with Music from Copland House Classical/Opera. Chamber Music | Virtual Event Virtual Event , NY See Map |
| A prodigious, much-honored composer and conductor, William Grant Still was a longtime pioneer on the American music scene. He was the first black composer to have an opera produced by a major U.S. company, to have an opera televised on a national network, and to conduct a major symphony orchestra. When violinist Louis Kaufman offered him a commission, Still produced his glowing Suite for Violin and piano that reflected that illustrious performer’s passion for the visual arts, and interest in a composition melding popular, blues, and jazzy elements with classical forms and techniques.
Please join us for this free, 45-minute-long program, featuring Music from Copland House’s complete performance of Still’s exuberant, affecting work, followed by a live Q&A between viewers and artists.
