  • Lucinda Williams Announces Run of Shows in Port Chester, Buffalo, and NYC

    Revered alt-country singer-songwriter Lucinda Williams is bringing her acclaimed live show on the road for four dates in New York State. The tour begins on October 11 in Fort Worth, TX and wraps up on February 28, 2025, in Miami, FL.

    Lucinda Williams’ tour sees 18+ dates across the US, including four dates in NY. Williams plays Town Ballroom in Buffalo on November 8, The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester on November 9, and the legendary Beacon Theatre in NYC on December 1 and 2. Williams’ shows at the Beacon Theatre include a benefit for rock artist Jesse Malin who has suffered a rare spinal cord stroke in 2023 leaving him paralyzed from the waist down.

    William’s 2023 memoir, Don’t Tell Anybody The Secrets I Told You, was released to wide critical acclaim and debuted at #5 on the New York Times Bestsellers. This memoir is the subject of a few of her upcoming tour dates. Over the past two years, her music has been the force driving her recovery from a debilitating stroke she suffered on November 17, 2020, at age 67.

    Her masterful, multi-Grammy-winning songwriting has never deserted her. To wit, her stunning, sixteenth studio album, Stories from a Rock n Roll Heart, brims over with some of the best work of her career. And though Williams can no longer play her beloved guitar – a constant companion since age 12 – her distinctive vocals sound better than ever.

  • Disturbed The Sickness 25 Anniversary Tour with Two Shows in NY

    Multi-platinum rock band Disturbed has announced “The Sickness 25 anniversary tour” that will hit Madison Square Garden on Mar. 21 and KeyBank Center in Buffalo on Apr. 4.

    Disturbed

    Disturbed’s debut album, which launched the band into public consciousness, has reached its 25 anniversary and with it, the band has announced an anniversary tour that will hit 34 cities across the US from Feb. 25 until May 17.

    Each night will feature two sets of music, opening with Disturbed playing the five times platinum The Sickness in full, followed by a full set of greatest hits. The first half of the tour will feature support from special guests Three Days Grace, featuring the return of original singer Adam Gontier, and opener Sevendust, and the second half will feature special guests Daughtry with opener Nothing More.

    On Tuesday, Oct. 15 at 10 am, tickets and VIP will be available in the artist pre-sale. Fans can pre-register for pre-sale tickets and dates in the UK and Europe will be announced soon.

    Since The Sickness was released in 2000, the album was certified five times platinum by the RIAA, spent a total of 106 weeks on the US Billboard 200 chart, and Revolver named it one of “Top 25 Debut Hard Rock Albums.” Billboard said of the title track upon release: “‘Down With The Sickness’ is, of course, the quintessential Disturbed song, harnessing all the band’s seethe and its now-famous tribal beat and guitar chug into three and a half minutes of alt-metal mayhem. It’s menacing, it’s rhythmic, it’s rebellious.”

  • Jamie McLean Band To Bring One Step Forward Tour Across New York

    New York City based Americana and roots-rock group Jamie McLean Band will be bringing their One Step Forward Tour, celebrating their upcoming release of the same name, to four venues across New York State.

    A triple threat of New Orleans soul, middle Americana roots, and New York City dazzle, Jamie McLean Band create energetic and captivating live experiences each and every time they step on to the stage. Fronted by McLean himself with southern soul vocals, deft guitar skills, and heartfelt, profound songwriting, the band’s live performances are brought to life with the collaboration of drummer Brian Griffin, bassist Chris Anderson, and the return of Jamie McLean Band’s original keyboardist, Jon Solo.

    Following six albums, several singles, and a handful of live releases, Jamie McClean band returns with One Step Forward, to be released on October 25. Featuring themes of life, loss, and love, the tracks of One Step Forward explore the bright lights that provide joy and motivation as well as the heavier experiences of loss and grieving. 

    Written after the loss of a dear friend to suicide, one of the most poignant tracks on the album “Don’t Leave Us Now” grapples with the tragedy and calls listeners to action- to help the ones they love around them, and to help themselves, as there is no shame in being the one in need.

    The One Step Forward Tour, which began on August 22 in Pawling, coincides with their upcoming release and will continue throughout the country- including upcoming stops at the Falcon in Marlboro on October 4 and The 443 Social Club & Lounge in Syracuse on October 12, in addition to later dates at the Colony in Woodstock on November 8  and the Drom in New York City on November 22.

  • 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.”

This tour is for them, and I cannot wait to be able to travel to all these cities and see everyone. I am in such a place of immense gratitude and peace at this moment, so also having the chance to release my new album Gratitude on November 15 ahead of this tour is really special to me.

  • Buffalo Band Far Trio Announce Live Shows

    Far Trio will embark on a fall tour that will amount to 14 dates across New York through Sep. and Oct. ahead of their new album expected next year.

    Far Trio

    Far Trio is an “earthy fusion” band from Buffalo that was formed over a decade ago in Fredonia, NY. They are going on tour this fall bringing their unique blend of soul, blues, and singer-songwriter vibes to audiences throughout New York State.

    Eamon Rayhn (vocals, bass), Drew Azzinaro (vocals, guitar), and Ethan Fox (drums) form the band which has been a fixture in the region’s music scene for the past five years. They have performed over 150 shows annually across cities like Buffalo, NYC, the Finger Lakes, Philadelphia, and the Hudson Valley.

    Far Trio has played at renowned venues including The Bitter End, Rockwood Music Hall, Shakti Lounge, So Far NYC, and major jazz festivals such as The Northwest Jazz Festival and Carnegie Jazz Festival. They have earned critical acclaim for their fresh takes on classic songs by artists such as John Lennon and The Allman Brothers, and their original compelling compositions.

    In 2022, Far Trio released their second album, Ordinary Moments, recorded in Woodstock, NY, with legendary producer Scott Petito (James Taylor, Chick Corea, John Scofield). The album features 14 tracks ranging from soulful singer-songwriter tunes to raunchy blues-tinged grooves. This latest work showcases the band’s evolution as a unit, with each member augmenting the others’ compositions and delivering a diverse sound that captivates a wide audience.

    The band has stated that a new project is on the horizon for next year, the band continues to write, experiment, and create music that transcends genres while keeping its soul firmly rooted in the earthy fusion they are known for.
