This Sunday at The Brooklyn Monarch, MC’s better act like they know, as KRS-One headlines the annual Tour For Life concert this Sunday, August 18. Uniquely, Tour For Life is essentially a rap concert that also advocates for mental health awareness within the hip-hop community. At each stop, on-site therapists offer free sessions, live art, giveaways, community mending art projects, and performances. Presented by Full Blast Booking, a Connecticut-based booking company that specializes in booking tours, Tour For Life has raised over $60,000 for mental health non-profits over the past three years. Hence, this year’s tour will be raising money for organizations such as Mental Health Connecticut.
KRS will headline Tour for Life this Sunday August, 18.
Tour For Life’s Final Weekend
Yet, Brooklyn will be the final stop for Tour for Life. This weekend’s performances, from August 15 – 17, will see Tour For Life make stops in various neighboring east coast states including Rhode Island, Connecticut and New Hampshire. Meanwhile, performances will feature hip-hop headliners Sage Francis, Billy Danze of M.O.P., and Rome Streetz. Supporting this stop on the tour will be artists such as, Duece Bug, Konflik, Sosoon + Tony Dimes, DTaylz, Neema MC, Mickey Bourbon, Mic Hoffa, and more.
With this intention, Tour for Life also works to provide a platform for legendary headliners, as well a the many talented and independent artists from all over the nation. Thus, with the tour’s final stop will see hip hop pioneer/legend KRS-One replace initial headliner Redman. However, with one of the most comprehensive discographies in hip hop as well as a bevy of thought-provoking lyrics, KR-One is no stranger to nuance nor the healing properties of rap music.

Country and folk rock band Cowboy Junkies has announced a new tour for the fall of 2024 that will begin with two stops in New York, one in Buffalo and the other in Geneva. The tour is in support of their most recent album, Such Ferocious Beauty, which is the band’s first release of new material in five years.
Formed just over the border in Toronto, Cowboy Junkies have been actively making and performing music for almost 40 years. Comprised of bassist Alan Anton, songwriter/guitarist Michael Timmins, drummer Peter Timmins and vocalist Margo Timmins, the quartet has recorded a total of 16 live albums and five live albums. Moreover, with Michael, Peter and Margo all being siblings, the band’s many years of unwavering togetherness only makes sense.
Cowboy Junkies’ first album, Whites Off Earth Now!!, in 1986, kicked off their careers and was then followed up in 1988 by the now-Platinum The Trinity Season. In a world where many bands chase whatever sounds are trending, the Junkies have stayed their course, maintaining the low-impact excavation of melody and evocative language that gave them so many fans in the first place.
About Cowboy Junkies
The band’s newest outing, Such Ferocious Beauty, is vintage Cowboy Junkies and another dimension from the lo-fi Canadian band comprised of, well, family. As a result the album is a tangle of sonic textures, ruminating on aging, losing parents, facing mortality and creating space for one’s life in the midst of the ruin that comes from merely living. “Mike has never shied away from the darker, harder and sometimes uglier realities of our human condition,” Margo Timmins explained of the band’s singular focus, “nor has he shied from its beauty. Thankfully, with one comes the other.”
Michael Timmins, the oldest, is the chief architect, songwriter and guitarist, who works with Margo on sculpting the emotional planes and vocal performances before bringing in younger brother Peter on drums and lifelong friend Alan Anton on bass to create the soundscapes that have made Cowboy Junkies a band that defies categories. Alternative? Rock? Americana? Roots? Perhaps the answer is a simple “yes.” Hence, the churning beauty builds on all those things, evoking the best of a group that’s evolved over three and a half decades. Michael adds, “This record is connected to All That Reckoning. I see our recent work in a cycle: Reckoning, Ghosts and Such Ferocious Beauty. They were all done in very violent and tumultuous times. The violent side is so much a part of our society now—not just the physical, but the way we relate to each other. It’s hard to escape.”

Inside The Band
Whether drawing on a pop culture reference like a quote culled from Mike Tyson or mining Greek mythology, there’s an ease and fluidity to how Michael draws songs together. For the sinewy “Mike Tyson (Here It Comes),” he employs a high-plains spaghetti Western tension that marries a nervy acoustic strum and tympani rolls to a creeping bassline, while “Circe & Penelope” deploys a wheezy fiddle and an acoustic guitar with its strings more flicked than strummed.
“I love the blunt reality of this song,” Margo offers. “I love the two women’s strength and realistic view of the situation. They have a great love for their men, but also this discontent. The image of these two women waiting for their men to return but getting on with the work that needs to be done and living their lives as strong women is truly empowering and reflects upon many of the women I know today.”
“The expectations and responsibilities of what we all do—it’s a big part of this. We’re still amazed that we’re doing this, but the longer [we have], the more fun it’s become. We don’t take it for granted,” said Michael. “We do what we do,” Margo agrees, “and it feels right for all of us. After 30-plus years of playing together, the band and its music are more important to us than ever. The music we make brings each of us a great sense of contentment, a knowing of place and a sense of doing what we were meant to do.”

On Saturday, September 14, the Red, White, and Brew festival will go on outside Albany’s MVP Arena, honoring veterans with lots of music. The block party will take place on South Pearl Street, featuring a slate of local and nationally recognized country artists. Headlining the festival is country musician and veteran Craig Morgan.
The festival is pulling out all the stops for its first year with help from Albany County, MVP Health Care, and their Innovation Partnership. The day starts at 2 PM with a set from Amsterdam, NY’s beloved country band, Skeeter Creek. The following performance is by country singer, Darryl Worley, known for songs like “Have You Forgotten.” The final set of the day is renowned soldier-turned-country artist, Craig Morgan with hits such as, “That’s What I Love About Sunday” and “Redneck Yacht Club.”
Each artist intertwines respect and honor for anyone who has served, with country music, that is both serious and lighthearted. Whether attendees know their music or not, this lineup of performers will undoubtedly provide the perfect soundtrack to the day.
It is important to show our gratitude to those who have served this country. Serving comes with great sacrifice and great risk, and hosting events to celebrate our Veterans is a small way to show appreciation for their courage and dedication. The Red White and Brew Festival is an opportunity for Veterans and families to enjoy good company, food, and music.
Daniel P. McCoy, Albany County Exectutive
The festival at MVP Arena is open to the public, with many things to do besides the music. Offerings include vendor booths, a variety of food options, and of course, craft beers.

Dogs In A Pile have announced a four-day run at Saratoga Springs’ Putnam Place from December 28-31 to ring in the New Year. These shows come in the aftermath of the band’s cross-country fall 2024 tour.
Art by Joe Winograd
Dogs In A Pile began in Asbury Park, at the heart of the Jersey Shore. Guitarist Jimmy Law and drummer Joe Babick teamed up with Berklee graduates Sam Lucid (bass), Jeremy Kaplan (keyboard), and Brian Murray (guitar). Together, the quintet has made a name for itself for their eclectic mix of funk, rock, and psychedelia. With live shows that build improvised psychedelic soundscapes, the band has amassed a large cult following, known as the Dog Pound.
2024 marks a monumental year for Dogs In A Pile. Throughout the Summer, the quintet has headlined multiple shows and concerts in Colorado, and toured with Andy Frasco & The U.N. and Pigeons Playing Ping Pong. Following up these shows, the band announced a cross-country fall tour. The tour begins on October 25th in Philadelphia, before looping around the country for a November 22nd show in Atlanta.
To cap off this busy year of touring, Dogs In A Pile will play four nights at Putnam Place in Saratoga Springs. Located in Downtown Saratoga Springs, the 400+ person venue is a staple of Upstate New York tours. Over the years, the venue has hosted everyone from Ghostface Killah to Blues Traveler. Among Putnam Place’s many shows was a NYE 2023 show by Dogs In A Pile. The show was a display of the band’s musical ability, debuting four new songs, and playing a number of improvised psychedelic jams.

Ticket presale begins on Wednesday, August 14th at 12pm ET. General public sale will follow on Friday, August 16th at 12pm ET.

Jam band extraordinaires, Tyler Adams Organ Trio, released their new jazz-funk E.P. The Color Red Sessions on August 9. Comprised of Tyler Adams and Caton Sollenberger of The Jauntee and Will Trask of The High Hawks, the trio effectively brings different experiences to this new collection of music.
The ensemble is a part of Color Red Music, out of Denver, CO. Tyler Adams is the keyboardist for the Boston-based band The Jauntee, along with trio member, guitarist, Caton Sollenberger. After years of experience in the east coast jam-band scene, they’re entering a different musical sphere out west. Similarly, drummer, Will Trask, also has extensive band experience with multiple collectives, notably The High Hawks.
This E.P. marks the debut of the Tyler Adams Organ Trio. Made up of individually established musicians, the trio’s first product showcases musical depth and well-versed collaboration. Produced by Tyler Adams, the collection was evidently created with much care and attention to detail throughout an extremely hands-on experience.
The Color Red Sessions, which features the prominent Hammond B3 organ, exemplifies the sound of many other musicians under Color Red Music. The refreshing layers of organ, guitar, and percussion instrumentation create a syncopated dynamic. The energy presented across all five tracks emulates that of a relaxed jam session. Hence the record’s title, it subsequently brings the recording atmosphere to life through the songs.
Though lyricless, each song presents it’s own character. The musicians simultaneously convey the song’s individual messages through their respective roles. The drums and guitar create melodic accents as they follow the organ’s lead producing, positive, high-energy songs, that also hold a relaxing beat. Overall, Adams, Sollenberger, and Trask produced a body of groovy, experimental music that creatively tells a story.
Key Tracks: Monday Morning, The Bend, Sunday Evening

Beloved R&B and soul saxophonist musician James Casey will posthumously release his debut album, The Kauai Project, on Wednesday, August 28. The album’s release will come one year after he passed away from colon cancer at age 40.
Although James Casey only recently emerged on New York City’s R&B and soul scene, he has been making waves in the music industry for years. From touring with classic funk band Lettuce to joining Phish guitarist Trey Anastasio’s solo band to sharing the stage with legends like The Roots, Chaka Khan, J. Cole, Wu-Tang and Dave Matthews Band, Casey has accomplished more than most musicians could ever hope. This makes it all the more surprising that Casey had never released music under his own name until the 2020s.
Casey’s attitude towards his musical legacy abruptly shifted gears, though, when he was diagnosed with Stage III colorectal cancer at just 38 years of age in August 2021, which served as an awakening in so many ways. Deciding to make the most of his time, both for himself and for others, Casey let go of all limits to his musical career and, for the first time, prioritized his own musical legacy.
The seeds of his debut, The Kauai Project, were planted while he lived on the Hawaiian island of Kauai for nearly two years. While working on a COVID-era side project, Casey produced tracks with acapella samples to promote his and fellow musicians’ virtual live stream events. The resulting catalog of beats became the foundation and inspiration for his solo debut. Alongside Casey’s announcement of his plans for The Kauai Project, he released his first single, “New Bloom,” in March 2023.
In turn, Casey produced a mini-documentary to highlight his journey of stepping out as a solo artist in parallel to the stark reality of his terminal diagnosis. He aimed to transform his difficult reality into a call to action for others to avoid his fate—to be their own health advocate, get colonoscopies, and know your family history of cancer. “The thing about colon cancer is it is preventable if you catch it early enough,” Casey told the Today Show in March 2023, sharing how the lyrics for “New Bloom” were his mantra for positivity in the face of any circumstance. “If I’ve got today then that’s enough, I can do something with this time.”
Entrusting the EP’s final act to his close musical family, the last single from The Kauai Project, “This Place (pars Animus)”, will release on August 28. The song is a tribute to his band Animus Rexx, an explosive fusion project established with musicians Randy Runyon, Reuben Cainer, BIGYUKI, and Justin Tyson. Runyon and Cainer provided the song’s finishing touches, while his wife, Ayla Casey, laid the groundwork to carry his mission and debut EP forward.
“I am beyond grateful to help honor James’ life with the culmination of a project that meant so much to him,” said Ayla Casey. “James did not want his absence to weigh on us – please join me in celebrating the love and joy his music continues to cultivate.”
Following his passing, Casey’s family and friends hosted a sold-out memorial party at the Brooklyn Bowl in November 2023, which featured performances by Trey Anastasio, Louis Cato, Nikki Glaspie, Jennifer Hartswick, Brady Watt, and dozens of other musicians that shared the stage with James throughout his career. The benefit concert raised more than $32,000 to support cancer charities hand-picked by Casey for their work in the community.
The Kauai Project limited-edition vinyl pre-order is available now via Relix Marketplace, with vinyl shipments starting in September. For more information about James Casey’s life, advocacy and music, and to pre-order The Kauai Project, visit here.

After forming in 2020, the band played all of 2021 under the name Wade, before later changing it to Mike Powell & The Echo Sound. In 2023, the band released their debut album, Plastic Spoon Honeymoon, which was recorded in Utica.
Also, headlining is Annie In The Water, a Indie rock band rooted in limitless acoustic guitars. Over time, listeners can experience rock, funk, reggae, hip hop, soul, dancebeat, and jam with enjoyable melodies driven by guitars and synthesizers over a ground-shaking rhythm section thanks to their songwriting and versatility. Comprised of members Brad Hester on lead vocals and rhythm,, Michael Lashomb on lead guitar and vocals, Josh West on drums and vocals, Chris Meier on bass and vocals, Matt Richards on keys and vocals, and Brock Kuca on percussion and vocals, each of their performance is and exhilarating and everlasting adventure.

Vicki Peterson, known for her role as the lead guitarist and vocalist of the iconic all-female rock band The Bangles, joined her husband, John Cowsill, drummer and vocalist for The Beach Boys, for a memorable performance at the Long Island Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame. Additionally, the duo’s show marked a poignant tribute to John’s late brothers, Bill and Barry Cowsill, with a selection of songs from their upcoming album, Long After the Fire. The project, which features songs written by Bill and Barry Cowsill, is set for release in early 2025.
Vicki Peterson: From Bangles to New Beginnings
Vicki Peterson’s journey in the music industry began with The Bangles in the early 1980s. Formed in Los Angeles, the band became one of the most successful female-led rock groups of the decade. Moreover, with hits like “Manic Monday,” “Walk Like an Egyptian,” and “Eternal Flame,” The Bangles carved out a significant place in the annals of pop and rock music. Peterson’s intricate guitar work and harmonious vocals were key elements in the band’s distinctive sound, which blended 1960s garage rock with the melodic sensibilities of the 1980s.
Following the band’s initial disbandment in 1989, Peterson pursued various musical projects, including working with the Continental Drifters and releasing solo material. However, the Bangles reunited in 1999, continuing to perform and record, allowing Peterson to revisit and expand upon the band’s musical legacy. Her collaboration with John Cowsill on Long After the Fire represents a new chapter in her career, blending her musical past with new inspirations and partnerships.
John Cowsill: Carrying the Legacy of The Beach Boys and The Cowsills
John Cowsill’s musical roots run deep. As a member of The Cowsills, a family band that rose to fame in the late 1960s, John was part of hits like “The Rain, The Park & Other Things” and “Hair.” Similarly. the Cowsills’ music was characterized by rich vocal harmonies and a pop sensibility that mirrored the era’s optimistic sound. In 2000, John joined The Beach Boys as their drummer and vocalist, a role he has embraced for the past 23 years. In addition, his dynamic performances have helped sustain the band’s legendary status in the music world.
A Heartfelt Tribute and Personal Insights
After their performance, I had the opportunity to speak with both Vicki Peterson and John Cowsill. Peterson shared insights into the couple’s evolving musical chemistry, noting that each night of their collaboration feels fresh and enjoyable. Her favorite track from their new project is a soulful song she sings, along with a timeless piece written by Barry Cowsill. She also highlighted the significant contributions of Paul Allen, a multi-instrumentalist from Nashville, who played various instruments and produced the album.
In my conversation with John Cowsill, he introduced their new project, Long After the Fire, a labor of love that has been in the works for the past few years. The project faced delays due to John’s commitments with The Beach Boys and Vicki’s touring schedule. Much of the recording took place at their home studio allowing the couple to work closely and intimately on the music.
John discussed the challenges they faced in navigating the modern music industry, such as understanding ISWC codes, ISNI numbers, and metadata management. He expressed concern that without these codes, they risk losing revenue from their music. The complexities of securing consistent publishing were also a hurdle, as companies can be bought or absorbed, changing the original agreements.
Looking Forward
As Vicki Peterson and John Cowsill prepare to release Long After the Fire in early 2025, their performance at the Long Island Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame offered a glimpse into a project that honors the legacy of John’s late brothers while showcasing the couple’s unique musical bond. Furthermore, their dedication to preserving the music of Bill and Barry Cowsill, combined with their passion for creating new sounds, promises to make this album a standout addition to their respective careers.
Hailing from Amsterdam, New York, three-piece genre-bending instrumental band, TV Doctors, is a group on the rise. Hot off the heels of their most recent live album earlier this year, TV Doctors continue to make their mark with their unique and intoxicating sound. The upstate trio’s passion for their craft has led them on a mission to play some of the most unpredictable and entertaining live shows in the region.

Who Are TV Doctors?
Comprised of Evan Conway, Bob Morris, and Josh Witmer, TV Doctors was informally created just before the COVID-19 pandemic hit. After Witmer reached out to Morris, whom he had previously been in a band with to ask about the possibility of forming a new band, Morris agreed and also recommended his bass-playing friend, Conway, as another addition. With that, the trio of TV Doctors was formed. The three only initially jammed for fun, but that all changed once the pandemic went into full swing. With all of them having nothing else to do, Conway cleaned out his garage, and the three played together in opposite corners at every opportunity they got. The name of TV Doctors came about from Morris, who kept on seeing celebrities like Doctor Phil and Doctor Oz whenever he would turn on the TV and thought it would be an entertaining theme to roll with.
Once Conway, Morris and Witmer learned to play as a unit, everything else for fell into place for TV Doctors. “It was like zero effort. Playing together was just a fun thing to do every week, and then it kind of took off,” Witmer said. In fact, one of the only dilemmas any of them had about the band was how to describe the music they make. On their website, they categorize themselves as a mix of psychedelic rock, funk, soul, dub, beats, and noise, but the walls between genres often blur, making a truly one-of-a-kind sound. With the trio’s list of musical inspirations including Frank Zappa, King Crimson, Brian Eno, James Brown, J Dilla and the Wu-Tang Clan, TV Doctors’ refusal to conform to one genre only makes sense.
Music and Performance Styles
Although TV Doctors have a laundry list of styles they dabble in, the most unique aspect of their performances is completely unrelated. All TV Doctors shows are a mixture of pre-planned and improvised songs, making no two shows alikeâone of the many reasons that seeing them live once is not enough. During live shows, the band will play something that they have practiced before, but if one of them gets a fun idea of where to take the track, they will do so, and the rest will go along.
“It’s like a launch pad for ADHD,” Conway noted. While playing for keen-eared crowds improvisationally may sound like a stressful situation, the doctors take the challenge in stride. “I have absolutely no nerves going into a show with this band,” said Conway. “It’s kind of like a Ouija board, actually. We’re one brain now. Eventually, we’re going to get the message out.”
As the pandemic slowly subsided in 2022 and 2023, TV Doctors began playing more and more live shows. In March of 2022, the trio released their first live project: recordings from a set they had at Rare Form Brewery in Troy. Since then, the band has put out three more live albums, with the most recent being Live at Wolf Hollow Brewing Co., which was released this past February.
An Improved TV Doctors
As a result of the experience TV Doctors have racked up through practices and public shows, they have gotten more and more comfortable handling their on-the-fly live decision-making skills. “I think that we’re getting to a spot where we can play back and forth. Those moments where things explode and get crazy are super fun, but they’re a little bit more strategic than they used to be,” Witmer said. Conway then added, “We’re also spending more time actually writing the songs. Sometimes we’ll play through something [in practice] and be like, ‘No, that kind of sucks. Let’s drop that. Let’s try this other thing the next time around.’”
TV Doctors are almost always working on something new, and now is no different. Conway and Witmer noted that one of their goals for the near future is to make a short video package that coincides with an album release. Knowing the band’s creativity and consistency, whatever their next project turns out to be is guaranteed to be equally fun and mind-bending.
For anyone looking to experience the doctors live, multiple shows in Gloversville, Schenectady and Albany are coming up in the next couple of months. Keep up with TV Doctors through their Facebook, Instagram and X accounts, and stream their music here.
