Saturday Night Live stirred up one of their own mighty veterans as Will Forte, complemented with music guest and recent rockstar Måneskin for the January 22 episode. Forte used the monologue to announce the upcoming second season of MacGruber after its official beginnings on SNL back when he was still a cast member.
Reminiscing on his olden days, Will Forte opened up about his misfortunes waiting for his special moment to host after watching his colleagues Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader, Andy Samberg, Fred Armisten, and Jason Sudeikis already do so. Finally, after 12 years, we get to see Will’s face, of course that was too soon joined by an appearance from Kristen Wiig and upcoming host Willem DeFoe, who Will was mistaken for after Lorne Michael’s phone had autocorrected “Willem.”
The show started with a cold open Fox News update from Kate McKinnon interviewing Aidy Bryant’s Senator Ted Cruz and Pete Davidson as Novak Djokovic, an unvaccinated tennis player. Senator Ted Cruz urged us to book our Cancún vacations today, escaping this horrid New York winter.
MacGruber came back tonight alongside his longtime friend Kristen Wiig. Except this sketch had been modified to our current climate and Will Forte sported a cut open mask to then detonate his iconic bomb.
Mark Zazz (Will Forte) hosted Kid Klash, a show where Aidy Bryant had to find the flag at the bottom of the whipped cream pie, cross the slippery monkey bars above nacho cheese sauce to her shrimp parents.
On hiatus from their international nomination for Best Song of the Year for the 2022 Brit Awards, Måneskin rocked “Beggin” in a patterned white head-to-toe suit. Full faced, featuring a signature silver smokey eye, Damiano David showed us how he won our hearts winning Eurovision and later at the American Music Awards last year.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8CKvsKbrK0
‘Cinema Classics’ was welcomed by Keenan Thompson and gaslit by Will Forte. Kate Mckinnon played his wife who was gaslighted around gaslights.
Måneskin came back for more with “I Wanna Be Your Slave.” A new flowered covered dazzling suit brought him to his knees whining beneath his guitarist Thomas Raggi just before luring the audience back in. Prancing about the stage with bassist Victoria De Angelis, he had us dancing until the end of the night. His performance on MTV UK sported a similar look this past November.

Earlier in the night Pete Davidson had stole some hearts on weekend update gloating with Weekend Update’s Colin Jost after purchasing a Staten Island Ferry soon to remodel as a nightclub.
SNL returns with William DeFoe, alongside Katy Perry next Friday, January 29th.
Alan Braufman announces a new live album due on April 8, tilted Live In New York City featuring the recording of Braufman with his five-piece band, Cooper-Moore (piano, ashimba, recitation), William Parker (bass), John Clark (French horn), Jim Schapperow (drums) and Ralph Williams (percussion) in an early 1975 live radio session.
Alan Braufman Album, Live From New York City
Alan Braufman was born in 1951 in Brooklyn and raised on Long Island. After some time, he moved to Boston to attend Berklee in 1968 to pursue music. Doing so made him become an instrumental figure in New York City culture. He currently lives and performs in Salt Lake City, UT, and became a teacher along with learning to play the saxophone.

Braufman is an experienced saxophonist, flutist, and composer within the Jazz community and preforms with many acts such as Alan Michael Band, Cooper-Moore, Cecil McBee and many others. In 2016, the Alan Michael Band became nominated for Best Jazz Artist by the Salt Lake City Weekly.

Braufman would go on to work with drummer William Hooker and his own groups before relocating to Salt Lake City. His album “Valley of Search” has gained popularity and captures a unique historical slice of New York’s creative underground Jazz.
The vinyl of the album is a 94-minute performance that is spread over 5 album sides on 3 LPs and 2 CDs. Along with this, the album will feature a live version of his song “Chant.” The album will be available on vinyl, CD and to stream on April 8th via Valley of Search and is available for pre-order/ pre-save at Bandcamp.
St Paul and the Broken Bones will be co-headlining a US tour with Fitz and the Tantrums, and are playing CMAC on June 14. They will only be playing one NY date this tour.
The octet group from Birmingham, Alabama will be releasing a new album The Alien Coast on January 28. The group will make TV performances on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on the 27 and on CBS Saturday Morning the 29. Their last CBS performance granted them a Daytime Emmy nomination.
The band performs on CBS Morning in 2014.
St. Paul And The Broken Bones released several singles for the album including “Love Letter from a Red Roof Inn,” “Minotaur,” and “The Last Dance.” These singles show the versatility of the band as they are constantly changing. The album showcases the band’s interpretation of the human psyche, combining psychedelia, stoner metal, and funk.
The band is one of Elton John’s favorites and has been featured on his Rocket Hour radio show. The band also has earned three Billboard 200 debuts, had an NPR Tiny Desk performance with over seven million views, and many TV performances.
St. Paul and The Broken Bones will be co-headlining with Fitz and The Tantrums and will be playing CMAC on June 14, and tickets can be found here.

Thursday, January 20 marked the return of Greensky Bluegrass and The Infamous Stringdusters to the Capital District, with a performance at the Palace Theatre that kept the audience warm and cozy from the frigid temperatures outside.
Greensky Bluegrass returned nearly two years after their last Albany performance, that time at The Egg with Ghost Light, and after a bit of a wait, they were back to kick off their Winter Tour ahead of the release of their new album, Stress Dreams.

Opening up the show were The Infamous Stringdusters, recently nominated for a Grammy for their Bill Monroe tribute album. They kicked off the show with “Rise Sun” off their 2019 album of the same name, and negotiated a very brief power outage, never missing a beat. The band took a few opportunities to comment on how long it’s been since they’ve seen each other, how good it feels playing live, and how much fun they were having.
Dobro player Andy Hall, a native of Binghamton spoke to Forbes this past week, recalling his view of his hometown:
The Binghamton area is beautiful — rolling hills, forests and lots of medium-size towns. Not a lot is happening there, but there are lots of colleges in the area, it was a great place to grow up and there were awesome down-to-earth people. I used to have a somewhat negative view of my hometown, but I think that just went along with the urge to escape and see the world. I went back recently to receive a distinguished alumni award from my high school and was really impressed with what they have going on with music and theater. It changed my view of my old high school for the better!
Andy Hall
The nearly hour-long set from Stringdusters included covers of the Grateful Dead’s “Touch of Grey” and The Police’s “Walking on the Moon,” as well as “Colorado” and “Sirens,” with the appreciative Albany crowd grooving along. Earlier in the day, the band released “I Didn’t Know” off their upcoming album, The Fray. Listen to the full show below:
Setlist: Rise Sun*. Colorado, Sirens, Touch of Grey^, Fire, Back Home Again, Walking on the Moon%, Vertigo, If You’re Gonna Love Someone, Fork in the Road
* Power outage on stage ^ Grateful Dead cover % The Police cover
Returning to the Palace Theatre stage for the third time, Greensky Bluegrass celebrated the pending release of Stress Dreams, which was released 30 minutes after the band took their final bows. Songs from the album, included the catchy “New and Improved,” “Monument” and “Worry For You,” which had its live debut this evening. Greensky Mandolinist Paul Hoffman noted early in the first set, “We made a plan to play this show a long time ago with the Infamous Stringdusters, and so far the plan is working.”
A rarer tune, “Bont’s Breakdown” was performed for only the fourth time in the last 12 years, with fan favorites “Go it Alone” and “Living Over” closing out the first set with a 1-2 punch.

A new arrangement of “Old Barns” led to one of the top jams of the night, with the visually explosive light show from Andrew Lincoln offering the perfect dose of psychedelic luminescence to layer over the band. “Take Cover” and “Tarpology” both left plenty of room for improvisation, entrancing the audience as they filled every minute. The show concluded with another Stress Dreams track, “Until I Sing,” with the audience praising the band one last time before heading out into the bitter winter night, a little warmer thanks to The Infamous Stringdusters and Greensky Bluegrass. Stream the show via Archive.org.

WEQX has long been the preeminent independent station in the Capital Region of New York, broadcasting from Southern VT to an ever-expanding listening audience. NYS Music brings you a preview of artists to discover each week, just a taste of the talent waiting to be discovered by fans like you.
North Side Sound
Four-piece Albany band North Side Sound is gearing up to release their EP, Take My Time, on January 28. It’s unclear whether they’ll be on the project, but in 2021 they released singles “Five” and “Dive Deep.” The former centers around an upbeat guitar riff, with hints of reggae not unlike No Doubt. The latter is mellow for most of its runtime, before exploding in its final third.
The Grandstand Jockeys
Hailing from Waterford, the Grandstand Jockeys are preparing for their upcoming album Place, out February 12. “Now You Do,” the first track off their 2021 debut EP WIN, is expected to make the cut. The band has described their sound as a “Tom Petty joining Nirvana and Queens of the Stone Age.”
River Costa
Independent singer-songwriter River Costa has released her EP, Mallely’s Lonely Time on Makeout Point. The first song, “Tumultuous,” is about a relationship she has trouble defining. Even though she’s excited about what the future holds, she also has doubts, fears, and even occasional apathy. Costa has also performed as a backup singer for the band Niksen.
Born and bred New York City rock ‘n’ roll band Lovechild released their self-produced nine-track powerhouse album, ‘All You Need Is Lovechild.’
Inspiration behind the album comes from frontman Leo Lovechild’s life in and around New York City with twin brothers Aaron Mones (guitarist) and Wyatt Mones (multi-instrumentalist and producer). A multitude of influences like The Beatles, Bob Dylan, and Father John Misty were incorporated for Lovechild to add a twist and create their unique music for this album.
The delivery of the album took years of work delving into the craft of writing to produce rock and roll music in the modern age. Welding crashing piano keys with boisterous guitars and a confident rhythm are portrayed in the heart of the songs. The clever lyrical lines come from Leo’s poetry degree which diversified the albums songs from various angles of romantic, angry, and wistful.
“Our goal for this record was always to make a classic rock and roll album in the modern age, not a “classic rock” album, but a “classic” rock and roll album, one that pushes the genre into the future as much as it represents the sound of a reinterpreted past.”
Leo Lovechild
The band shares a short documentary “Driving With Leo” filmed by Jack Tumen which dives deeper into the life of Leo Lovechild and their debut album. Personal ups and downs of Leo Lovechild’s life and the struggle to find hope are felt in the emotionality of the vocal performances, tensions of guitar playing, and the thoughtfulness production.

NYC is a melting pot of musical genres, and is the breeding ground for some of the most creative acts that our country has to offer. There’s everything from horror punk, thrash, doom, stoner, and much, much more. One of those genres is called horror punk, and within that genre tag is Cut Like This, a band who have recently released a single for their incredibly catchy song, “The Boogeyman.”
Cut Like This features Rose Blood on vocals, guitarist Thorn Black, and Corey Carver on bass guitar; together they take influence from artists like Wednesday 13, Shulla, Phantasmagoria, In This Moment, Dir En Grey, Korn, Nothingface, Jack Off Jill, and many more.
When asked about this new song, Rose Blood says:
“The Boogeyman” was really fun to write and we tried a lot of new things with this track, including adding synths to it, as well as collaborating with our friend Xian Murder of the Amatory Murder, who helped us record it and helped produce it. It was inspired by my real life issues with insomnia, with mythologies and films centered around the idea of the Boogeyman, especially our favorite Boogeyman of all, Freddy Krueger from A Nightmare on Elm street.
Rose Blood, Cut Like This
The synth work is something that fans of their self titled first album will consider new, but their addition helps to give Cut Like This a fuller sound, and is a perfect compliment to what they are doing in “The Boogeyman.”
Aside from the addition of synth, one of the most notable influences stems from Wednesday 13, whose work with Joey Jordison in the Murderdolls, and as a solo artist, helps to fuel “The Boogeyman;” it’s difficult to not hear that influence on the vocals and guitar riffs.
“The Boogeyman” is a cool horror punk song, and if you like the original you should also check out the remix done by Angelspit. You can find the original here, and the remix link is also available for viewing below. So get on it, and show Cut Like This some love by liking and following them on all of their social media accounts.
