Harlem Stage announced its new Artistic Director and CEO, Indira Etwaroo, at Harlem Stage’s 40th anniversary sold out gala in City Winery.
Etwaroo hopes to emphasize the local and international connection in her new position. “Harlem is our home, but the world is our stage” is her north star phrase when it comes to leading the company. She upholds Harlem Stage’s core values of giving artists of color opportunities and dismantling the systems that historically oppress institutions and companies operated by people of color.
Etwaroo will succeed the now former Artistic Director and CEO of 25 years, Patricia Cruz. She expressed her gratitude for her new position and explained her challenges in today’s political climate. “It is not lost on me that my leadership tenure begins at a time when we must face—head on—the fragility of our fractured democracy, challenge demagoguery and the normalization of blatant falsehoods, and demand that cultural institutions be thought of as first responders and artists as frontline workers in this quest to create a more just, more truthful, more inclusive and more equitable world for the next generation and for generations to come,” she said. “I am deeply committed to the work ahead.”
With an extensive background in media and theater work, Etwaroo is familiar with directing. Etwaroo was the director of Steve Jobs theater from 2020 up until now and before that, she was the founding executive producer of both NPR from 2013-2015 and the century old radio station, The Greene Space from 2006 to 2013.
Etwaroo also has a background in fundraising. She became the first executive advisor of the Chadwick Boseman Estate, molding the foundation. During Covid-19 she helped raise $10 million for black theaters throughout the country.
Her work in the past was centered around community in the arts, something that Harlem Stage was built upon. The company was founded in 1983 to give a platform to Black artists and to expose Harlem to censored talent. Today, the stage hosts music and dance performances from artists around the world.
Upcoming performances include works from choreographer Camille A. Brown June 14 and 15 as well as the Eddie Palmieri Salsa Orchestra on Sept.12.

Folk Rock band, The Felice Brothers, released their single “Flowers By The Roadside” on Thursday. The track is a preview of the upcoming album Valley of Abandoned Songs set to be released on June 28.
“Flowers By The Roadside” has a classic Americana acoustic sound and is accompanied by a music video which is filmed in a film noir and new wave style. It follows a young girl on her little adventures while some of the lyrics are typed out on the screen.
Guitarist and vocalist, Ian Felice said, “this song was written one especially bleak winter day as a means to teleport to summer. Midway through the first and only take of the song James walked across the room, picked up a toy glockenspiel and plucked out a melody that had occurred to him. It was recorded in 2018 in our old cinderblock studio outside of Hudson, NY.”
The Felice Brothers are originally from Palenville, NY in the Catskill mountains and they first started to get attention in the 2000’s when they played in the New York City Subway. Their first self released album Lantown came out in 2005. Since their start they’ve toured with Old Crow Medicine Show and opened for Dave Matthews Band. They are currently signed to Conor Oberst’s new label, Million Star Records. The band is made up of Ian Felice, James Felice (piano/vocals), Jeske Hume (bass), and Will Lawrence (drums).
Along with the new single, the album is full of great pieces. Ian Felice’s melancholic voice fills each song and some tracks have a slight bluegrass sound. The album has been described by Ian Felice as a “tightrope walk between light and dark.”
Psychedelic groove circus, Glass Pony, is set to perform at Albany’s The Palace Theatre on June 7 as part of the Palace Sessions.
The Albany native band focuses on danceable music with influences from the 60’s and 70’s and incorporates a jam band style of performance. In 2019 they released their first self titled album and their most recent 2023 album is titled Washed Away. The band is made up of Chanda Dewey (drums), Eddie Hotaling (guitar, lead vocals), Jeff Picarazzi (bass), and Greg Pittz (lead guitar).
Although it was built in 1931, The Palace Performing Arts Centers was established as a not-for-profit corporation in 1984 and since then, has hosted a variety of talent including The Rolling Stones, Jerry Seinfled and Tony Bennet. The theater was always used to entertain the Albany community as it was first used as a cinema for the “talkies.”
The Palace sessions are a series of recorded and filmed live performances. The sessions were created with the help of the city of Albany and Mirth Films in 2020. The goal was to bring live music, via YouTube, to a quarantined audience. Glass Pony’s Palace Sessions set is free to all and you can reserve tickets here.
Hosted by CNY Jazz foundation, the 20th Jazz In The City, a free public health concert series, will commence on June 13 in Syracuse.
Aside from music, the festival includes vendors, food and most importantly its “healthcare village” sponsored by Syracuse Community Health. Urban Neighborhoods in Syracuse continue to face disparities when it comes to healthcare. With COVID-19, the community was unable to receive the care they needed. SCH staff will conduct free screenings and consultations to anyone who requests them.
Syracuse Community Health COO Jessica Yoxall explained in a press release, “we highlight the importance of preventative care and screenings to promote positive health outcomes. By increasing awareness and expanding health education, we together, can achieve health equity and enhance the quality of care in Onondaga County.”
These free concerts and healthcare services will be offered every Thursday from June 13 to August 15 at various parks and community centers in the city. Performances include Syracuse’s own The BlackLites and Albany’s Alex Torres.
CNY Jazz foundation has been bringing Jazz to upstate New York since its establishment in 1998. Along with Jazz In The City, CNY hosts numerous other programs such as Northeast Jazz & Wine, SummerJazz Workshop and the Central New York Jazz Orchestra.

The esteemed Polish music festival, Jazztopad will return to New York and Canada for the eighth time in its history on June 13 through June 27.
Jazztopad, as it implies in the title, is one of Poland’s biggest festivals in Jazz and Improvised music. As the eight North American Jazztopad, the festival does have a New York Focus but performances will travel to Philadelphia and Canada. The last two shows, Hand to Earth with Amalia Umeda on June 26 and an ensemble on June 27, are in collaboration with the Coastal Jazz and Blues Society in Vancouver. The New York dates include some jazz specific venues like Dizzy’s Club and barbès.
The Festival is possible due to the work of Witold Lutosławski National Forum of Music and The Polish Cultural Institute New York. The NFM was founded as an institution in 2014 and has created festivals like The International Festival Wratislavia Cantans and Musica Electronica Nova along with various ensembles and orchestras. The Polish Cultural Institute New York has shared Polish art and history all across the country since its establishment in 2000. The Institute works with Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, the Julliard School of Music and more.
Artists from around the world will perform at Jazztopad including the Australian contemporary ensemble, Hand and Heart, and Polish violinist, Amalia Umeda. One of the artists featured in Jazzopad is Kris Davis, a Canadian pianist and composer. She is a Grammy award winning artist and has released 24 records as a leader or co-leader. At Jazzopad, she will perform with The Lutosławski Quartet, an NFM ensemble founded in 2007.
On June 13, Kris Davis and The Lutosławski Quartet will perform at Dizzys Club at Jazz at Lincoln Center, an intimate venue in New York that features artists from around the world since it officially became a department of Lincoln Center in 1991. Jazztopad will move to barbès on June 14 and 15. Barbès is a Brooklyn Jazz club that was named in the top ten best Jazz clubs in the country by Playboy Magazine.

The Metropolitan Opera has announced its 2024 Summer Recital Series lineup in collaboration with Capital One City Parks Foundation SummerStage.
The recital series will feature performances in all five boroughs. The first recital on June 18 will be in the heart of Manhattan at SummerStage in Central Park. Soprano, Leah Hawkins, tenor, Mario Chang and bass-baritone, Michael Sumuel will take to the stage to kick off the recitals. Opera fans can bring chairs and blankets to enjoy the free concerts.
The first Met opera house opened in 1883 by a group of wealthy businessmen. It wasn’t until 1966, when the Met joined the other New York arts institutions, that the opera house in Lincoln Center opened. This theater was better equipped with the technology needed for a metropolitan experience. In order to expand its audience, the opera house introduced its The Met: Live in HD in 2006, bringing the opera experience to cinemas across the country. In another effort to expand its audience, the Met brought its work to parks around NYC.
The first Summer Recital Series happened in 2009. The idea was to bring music to people who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity to experience an Opera. Since 2009, the Met singers have performed nearly every year with a break in 2020 and 2021 due to Covid.

The town of Chateaugay, NY will host Adirondack Vet Fest, July 20 and 21. All proceeds go to North Country Honor Flight, an organization that brings veterans to Washington D.C.
The festival has a lineup of musical groups throughout the two days at the Chateaugay Town Hall Theatre. Along with the performances, guests can find food vendors, crafts and merchandise and a silent auction.
Vet Fest starts at 10:00 and on July 20, the festival’s special event begins at 6:30 with Artimus Pyle band. Drummer and marine veteran, Artimus Pyle was a former member of Lynyrd Skynyrd.

The festival has an optional donation towards North Country Honor Flight. The organization gives veterans in New York and Vermont a chance to fly to Washington D.C. and visit memorials honoring themselves. World War ll and Korean war veterans can apply on the website for this opportunity. To see Artimus Pyle band guests can purchase the $25 tickets in cash at the Chateaugay Town Hall Theatre.
New York City band, God Street Wine, released their brand new comedic single on Tuesday, titled, “Kristi Shot a Puppy.”
The satirical title references South Dakota Governor, Kristi Noem. She is a controversial republican politician who, according to her own memoir, shot and killed her dog on her family farm.
God Street Wine is no stranger to dark humor as they often use comedic lyrics to get statements across to listeners.
The band took to Facebook writing, “No animals of any kind were harmed during the recording of this new #GodStreetWine song. We wish the same was true of the subject matter. It’s a weird world out there. Be safe, be kind and please exercise your right to #vote. Your voice matters!”
Since the band formed in 1988, God street Wine has released nine studio albums and opened for big names in rock including The Allman Brothers Band, Dave Mathews band and Sheryl Crow. Founding bandmates, Lo Faber and Dan Pifer met at NYU and then transferred to Manhattan school of music where they met guitarist and vocalist Aaron Maxwell. The founding members’ background in jazz mixed with bluegrass and rock creates the band’s unique sound.
“Kristi Shot a Puppy” follows their album released in February, Hot Sweet and Juicy. Fans will have a chance to see God Street Band live while they hit the road again this Fall. They will perform at Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock, Sept. 20 and 21, The NYC venue, The Cutting room on Sept. 27 and The Wonder Bar in New Jersey Sept 28.
You can check out their new single here. To find out more information about the upcoming tour, visit their website.
