  • God Street Wine Announces 5 Show Tour, Woodstock Date To Be Recorded

    Jam band God Street Wine has announced a series of five concerts in March, including a date in Woodstock that will be recorded for a live release.

    One of the most prominent acts of the early jam band scene, New York based God Street Wine has been jamming on and off for over twenty six years. Within their first decade as a unit, the group had released five albums and performed over 1,000 shows across the country.

    After a nearly decades-long split, the band reunited in 2009 privately to honor the passing of an old friend and later performed a series of shows in New York City benefiting the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. With the band spread geographically, releases came sporadically throughout the next few years, including a 25th anniversary box set retrospective and the All The Way To Here documentary film.

    Just off of the heels of eight shows in the Summer of 2019, the band faced an unexpectedly lengthy hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns. After four years kept apart, God Street Wine was able to reunite in 2023 with two New York shows, this time in benefit of Mission Stadiums for Multiple Sclerosis.

    Earlier this year, the group celebrated their first major-label release’s 30th anniversary with digital releases of once-lost tracks and pressed three of their albums on vinyl for the first time ever, punctuated with four sold-out shows in Woodstock, New York City, and Asbury Park in New Jersey.

    With countless performances and releases behind them, God Street Wine has decided once more that what they’ve accomplished so far is not all that is in store for the group and their fans. The band has announced five concerts in March of 2025, including a date in New York.

    Performing at the historic Bearsville Theater, God Street Wine will be making an appearance in Woodstock on March 15. This performance will wrap the mini-tour, and notably will be recorded for a future Live Release- it’s truly a show to not be missed. Tickets are on sale now- visit here to purchase and learn more.

    The full list of tour dates is below.

    TOUR DATES

    March 7: Admore Music Hall – Philadelphia, PA

    March 8: The Atlantis – Washington, D.C.

    March 13: The Sinclair – Boston, MA

    March 14: Nectar’s – Burlington, VA

    March 15: Bearsville Theater – Woodstock, NY

  • Herman Headlines Schenectady’s Sixties Spectacular at Proctors

    Legendary vocalist of Herman’s Hermits, Peter Noone, headlines the Sixties Spectacular tour on Saturday, November 2 at Schenectady’s Proctors Theatre.

    Peter Noone and his Herman’s Hermits procured a very well-groomed image which made them popular in the US during the British Invasion bands era. The band had a string of major hits such as “Ms. Brown, You’ve Got a Lovely Daughter” and “I’m Henry VIII, I Am” that were both #1 in the US and #12 in the UK.

    In turn of the great success, Noone decided to go solo and was able to reach the charts again at #12 in the UK, collaborating with legendary artist David Bowie writing, “Oh You Pretty Things”, going to show Peter’s impact ranging across the industry.

    hermans hermits

    Nowadays, Noone makes regular tour appearances in the US, as well as guest stars in VH1’s My Generation, Entertainment Tonight. In 2007, Peter showed up as a mentor on American Idol, offering advice to contestants singing songs from the British Invasion era.

    The GrassRoots, originally formed in San Francisco as “The 13th Floor” join Noone at Proctors Theatre after a decade.

    Although Rob Grill, the band’s original lead vocalist, passed away in 2011, current members, led by singer Mark Dawson, keep the spirit of their classic hits alive with vibrant performances. In 2015, they were inducted into the American Pop Music Hall of Fame, honoring their legacy for grateful fans.

    hermans hermits

    Gary Lewis & the Playboys will bring their longtime experience and talent to Proctors Theatre for another time.

    Rising to fame in 1965-1966, they began their journey performing nightly at Disneyland, where audiences were unaware that Gary was the son of comedy legend Jerry Lewis.

    Gary earned the title to cashbox’s vocalist of the year, competing with icons like Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley. Following a time in the army, Gary dropped one more hit was dropped called, “Sealed With a Kiss”.

    Opening the Sixties Spectacular are the Bluz House Rockers at Proctors, celebrating their 30th anniversary.

    They are proud inductees of the NYS Blues Hall of Fame from their diverse repertoire of collaborations and sounds. With six of the seven members sharing lead and harmony vocals, they bring high energy to the stage.

    Over the past decade, they have performed at various venues, including Proctors, the Times Union Center, and the Palace Theatre, as well as special events like Albany and Saratoga First Nights and the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.

  • Tesla brings the electricity to the Premier Theater at Foxwoods Casino

    Legendary 80’s band Tesla brought their “Keepin’ It Real” tour to the Premier Theater at Foxwoods Casino. The band in no time sold out the casino’s biggest venue. Even before the opener, Sebastian Bach went on stage, the crowd filed in and packed the theater.

    If you were to go back in time to the late 1980s or early 1990’s the combination of Tesla with Skid Row – Bach’s former band, could have been a reality. Unfortunately for the rock community, getting this amazing duo took a little longer than normal. In the casino, there are strict curfews so Bach went on stage a few minutes past 8:00 p.m. He delivered a heavy set of 12 songs that consisted of Skid Row classics and solo material.

    As fans could have expected, more than half of Bach’s set was Skid Row songs. But, he did kick his set off with one of his newest songs, “What Do I Got to Lose?” off his newest record, Child Within The Man. It was great to hear four of his newer songs and introduce old fans to newer material. The crowd was going wild for him Bach, for each song they would give a thunderous cheer. In response, for the entire time, Bach was smiling ear to ear and his voice was pitch-perfect.

    Despite fighting some technical difficulties with his microphone and the sound, the four-piece band put on an unforgettable show. Joining Bach was his son, Paris on drums, Clay Eubank on bass and Brody DeRozie on guitar. For the entire time they were on stage, they headbanged and hair flipped. That was until they played their last song, “Youth Gone Wild,” but were cut off by the curfew and were forced not to play the song. Heroically though, Tesla brought him back out at the end of their set to play “Youth Gone Wild” and their song, “Signs.”

    PHOTO

    It only took a few short minutes between sets for Tesla to lay siege to the Foxwoods crowd. They jumped right into “Rock Me To The Top,” off of their debut record, Mechanical Resonance. The entire lower bowl of the theater stayed on its feet for the entire performance. Despite big red cushioned chairs behind them, the audience refused and stood in appreciation for the almost two-hour set.

    It’s easy to see why Tesla continues to sell out venues across the country. It’s because they deliver a great performance with so much infectious energy. Guitarist Frank Hannon, for the entire performance, ran back and forth from side to side delivering one of the best performances yet. Behind his yellow sunglasses, he shredded nonstop throughout the show. Whether it was a beautiful double-neck guitar or a classic Gibson, stopping Hanson was not possible.

    Joining Hannon in the band is Brian Wheat on bass, Jeff Keith on lead vocals, Dave Rude on guitar and Steve Brown on the drums.

    They played two new songs off an upcoming record that Hannon says come out around Thanksgiving time. “From the Heart” and the title track, “All About Love” received warm reactions from the audience. If true, this would be Tesla’s first studio record since 2018’s Shock.

    The band played all their greatest hits as well as some deep cuts. This constantly left the audience guessing on what song would be played next. At one point in the set, they played five of their most popular songs in a row which had the audience in a frenzy. “Changes,” “Paradise,” “Call It What You Want” and “Edison’s Medicine (Man Out of Time)” were the perfect final few songs.

    The band played all their greatest hits as well as some deep cuts. This constantly left the audience guessing on what song was next. At one point in the set, they played five of their most popular songs in a row which had the audience in a frenzy. “Changes,” “Paradise,” “Call It What You Want” and “Edison’s Medicine (Man Out of Time)” were the perfect final few songs to be played.

    Usually, Tesla’s first and final song of the encore is “Signs.” The popular song is a cover of Five Man Electrical Band’s version. But, for this show, after Bach’s set got cut by one song, they brought him back out to do a small snippet of “Youth Gone Wild.” This was followed by “Signs” and a great closing moment in the show. During the Bach/Tesla duet, you can tell that Bach appreciated the kind gesture of the band and it goes to show that Tesla does truly care about, not only the fans but the support act as well.

    Tesla’s one-stop at Foxwood’s on their “Keepin’ It Real” tour was well worth it for everyone involved. It was a fantastic throwback to when the 1980s was all about hard rock and metal. The Bach and Tesla pairing was perfect. Bach’s headbanging metal was the perfect balance with Tesla’s power chords and harmonies. If Tesla brings their juggernaut tour back to a New York area, I highly suggest going out and seeing them. They’ll make sure that you get your money’s worth.

    Sebastian Bach setlist: What Do I Got to Lose? Slave to the Grind, Big Guns, Sweet Little Sister, 18 and Life, Freedom, Piece of Me, Everyday Bleeds, Monkey Business, I Remember You, (Hold On) To the Dream,  Youth Gone Wild

    Tesla setlist: Rock Me To The Top, Modern Day Cowboy, Hang Tough, All About Love, Walk Away, Forever More, Heaven’s Trail (No Way Out), Miles Away, Changes, Paradise, Call It What You Want, Edison’s Medicine (Man Out of Time), From the Heart, Love Song, Little Suzi, Signs

  • Todd Rundgren To Be Presented Keys To The Town of Woodstock

    The Town Supervisor of Woodstock will be presenting Todd Rundgren with Keys to the Town on October 23 following a two-day residency.

    Todd Rundgren Woodstock

    A pioneer of electronic and progressive rock music, the usage of computer software and online music delivery, and music videos as a whole, Todd Rundgren is nothing short of a music industry legend.

     His experimental approach to creating has garnered widespread respect since his beginnings with psychedelic band Nazz, following solo career and subsequent group Utopia, and ventures into the tech world- Rundgren is to be thanked for one of the first music videos to be aired on MTV produced  in addition to one of the first computer paint programs.

    This insatiable desire to create and experiment is exactly what landed Rundgren in the limelight time and time again, as his work maintains personality and ingenuity regardless of medium or circumstance.

    Some of his most notable work not directly tied to his name came out of his 1969 move to New York, in which he found himself in the Greenwich Village club scene mingling with Manhattan creatives. 

    After accepting a job offer from former Nazz assistant manager turned new founder of Ampex Records and correlated Bearsville Studios nestled next to Woodstock, Rundgren began his journey to becoming the highest-paid producer in the world, eventually giving him the push needed to kick-start his solo career.

    Rundgren’s ties to the town continue in 2002, scoring the A Face to a Name film debuted at the Woodstock Film Festival, a piece made in and concerning the aftermath of the September 11 attacks of the previous year.

    It’s no wonder why the town of Woodstock has decided to honor Rundgren in this way- the keys will be a testament to his importance to the cultural history of the area, music, and everything in between. In addition to the symbolic presenting of keys, the ceremony will also mark the installation and dedication of a plaque to his work at Utopia Video Studio, built for Rundgren by Albert Grossman in the 1980s- the origin point of his legendary MTV music video projects.

    The ceremony runs parallel to Rundgren’s two-day set at Bearsville Theater on October 22 and 23. While the first of two dates is sold out, the second that will follow the key presenting ceremony still has tickets available- learn more and purchase tickets here.

  • Singer/Songwriter Mihali Releases Latest Single “Free Ride” Ahead of Northeast US Tour

    Reggae/Indie artist Mihali has released his latest track titled “Free Ride” which is now streaming on all platforms. The single releases in the midst of his northeastern US tour, which stops in Port Chester on October 25.

    Mihali Free Ride

    The track “Free Ride” uniquely combines multiple sounds which I find extremely interesting, and effective at grabbing the listener’s attention. There are immediately elements of pop, southern rock, country, indie, reggae and even a touch of R&B. I find it fascinating that Mihali can effectively combine these very different genres and make it a sound that portrays himself.

    The track screams positivity – that it is wildly important to be yourself and to get what you want out of life. Life isn’t just a free ride, you have to seize the day, make it what you want it to be. This message is something refreshing in comparison to a lot of other messages in music today.

    Mihali is currently touring the northeast as both a solo act, and as a band. The tour consists of 15 dates total at 13 different venues. One of these stages is in Port Chester, NY, where Mihali is set to perform “Free Ride” along with his other hits live.

    “When I go to write a song, sometimes I do so with a specific subject in mind, but other times the lyrics just come out of nowhere! Those surprise songs usually end up being my favorites, and Free Ride is one of those. I hope everyone takes its message to heart too. Get out there and live your life! There’s no time to waste.”

  • RPI and Opera Saratoga Present “The Other Side of Silence” A New Opera for Synthetic and Acoustic Voices

    On Oct. 16, at the Curtis R. Priem Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (EMPAC) at RPI in Troy, a free and open-to-the-public performance and workshop of The Other Side of Silence will be presented. This new opera is created with synthetic and acoustic voices, written by and for people who use Alternative Assistive Communication.

    the other side of silence

    The Other Side of Silence examines the intersection of art, advocacy, and technology in our lives, memories, and identities, and the role that art plays in promoting equity and agency of those who use alternative means of communication to speak to the world.

    The story draws direct inspiration from the life of Mark Steidl, a gender non-binary person who uses an Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) device to talk with the world. The cast also includes Opera Saratoga favorites Meghan Kasanders (The Consul, 2017) and Jennifer Zetlan (Ellen West), as well as newcomers Theo Hayes and Isaiah Musik-Ayala.

    The story follows Zari, who was born unable to speak through traditional means. Zari finds comfort in the “Lichttanz” or the magical play of light and shadow through a window. To gain more autonomy, Zari seeks help from a new technology despite opposition from their closest friends and family.

    A medical emergency prompts an intervention where it is discovered that without Zari’s express permission, an implant in Zari to help build communication between their brain and the technology. Zari fights back against this control and eventually disrupts the connection between the implant and Kim, though Zari’s memories have already been edited and manipulated. The one memory, however, that Kim is unable to alter, is that of the “Lichttanz”, representing the infinitude of human capacity and self-knowledge, their inner strength that withstands the intervention of artificial intelligence.

    The Other Side of Silence performance is presented as part of the 2024 International Symposium On Assistive Technology For Music And Art (ISATMA).

  • The Marley Brothers Legacy Tour at Forest Hills Stadium: A Tribute to Reggae’s King

    On Sunday, September 22, Forest Hills Stadium in Queens was transformed into a musical time capsule, as the Marley Brothers united for the first time in two decades to celebrate the enduring legacy of their father, Bob Marley.

    The Marley Brothers Legacy Tour, which kicked off in Vancouver, brought together Damian, Stephen, Julian, Ziggy, and Ky-Mani Marley for an epic 22-date journey across North America, paying tribute to their father’s timeless work. The tour, which ends in early October in Miami, features a nostalgic setlist of nearly 30 of Bob Marley’s most cherished songs, bringing generations of fans together to rejoice in the spirit of reggae music.

    A Family United by Music

    The significance of this tour cannot be overstated. Though each of the Marley brothers has had successful solo careers, it has been 20 years since the five have shared a stage. Bob Marley’s influence, both on reggae and on global consciousness, is unparalleled, and the brothers’ reunion not only honors their father but also the rich musical heritage he helped to create. Performing together, their synergy is unmistakable, and their collective energy invokes memories of Marley’s original performances while breathing new life into the music.

    The Show: A Journey Through Bob Marley’s Greatest Hits

    The Forest Hills Stadium show, one of the highlights of the tour, featured an electric atmosphere, with the Marleys delivering a setlist packed with classics. From revolutionary anthems like “Get Up, Stand Up” and “Buffalo Soldier” to love ballads like “Is This Love,” the brothers brought Bob’s music to life, reviving both the message and the passion that defined his career.

    The crowd erupted during timeless hits such as “Three Little Birds,” “Iron Lion Zion” and “Positive Vibration” singing along in unison, while more politically charged songs like “War” and “Exodus” reminded the audience of the power of music as a vehicle for social change. Damian, known for his harder-edged, dancehall-inspired sound, added a modern twist to the night with fiery performances while Ziggy’s soulful voice channeled the spirit of his father throughout. The setlist for the tour has been consistent with nearly 30 songs, a true testament to the power and breadth of Bob Marley’s work.

    Honoring a Legend: The Life of Bob Marley

    Bob Marley was born on February 6, 1945, in Nine Mile, Jamaica. Rising from humble beginnings, Marley became the voice of reggae and a symbol of resistance and hope for millions around the world. He started his musical career in the early 1960s with The Wailers, along with Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer. The group became known for their unique fusion of ska, rocksteady, and reggae.

    Marley’s music was more than entertainment; it was a message. Songs like “Get Up, Stand Up,” “One Love,” and “Redemption Song” became anthems for unity, resistance, and peace. His blend of spirituality, activism, and culture resonated far beyond the Caribbean, elevating reggae to international acclaim. Tragically, Marley passed away from cancer in 1981 at the age of 36, but his legacy has continued through his children, who have carried on his mission and music.

    A Night of Unity and Celebration

    The Marley Brothers Legacy Tour is more than just a reunion; it’s a celebration of Bob Marley’s profound influence and a reminder of the unifying power of music. At Forest Hills Stadium, the brothers’ performance felt like a historic moment, one that bridged the past and the present. With each song, they brought their father’s message to new ears while giving long-time fans the opportunity to experience Marley’s magic once again.

    As the tour continues across the country, fans from all walks of life will have the chance to partake in this once-in-a-generation experience. Bob Marley’s legacy lives on through his music, and through his sons, who have proven that the message of love, peace, and unity is more relevant now than ever.

    Whether in Vancouver, New York, or Miami, the Marley Brothers Legacy Tour is a testament to the enduring power of Bob Marley’s music—and to the familial bond that keeps that legacy alive for generations to come.

    Setlist: Natural Mystic, Get Up, Stand Up, So Much Trouble in the World, Coming in From the Cold, Positive Vibration, The Heathen, Concrete Jungle, Wake Up and Live, Shalom Salaam, War/No More Trouble, Running Away/Crazy Baldhead, Three Little Birds, Is This Love, Don’t Rock My Boat, Buffalo Soldier, Jammin, Easy Skanking, Boom Draw, New Heights, Medication, Kaya, Iron Lion Zion, Exodus, Could You Be Loved, One Love
