  • Burlap to Cashmere at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    Burlap to Cashmere headlined a set at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2 last night. We only discovered them exactly one week earlier, when they played the Next Charity Concert Series at Paulies in Pleasantville, NY. Since that was my first time seeing them, it doesn’t make sense to repeat everything I said so […]

  • Jesse Ruben at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    Jesse Ruben headlined a set at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2 last night. It’s been seven months since we’ve seen Jesse perform. The last time was also at Stage 2, covered here. The last show included a full band. Last night was (nearly) 100% solo. I was surprised, as Rockwood 2 tends to […]

  • Bryan Dunn Sweetheart of the Music Hall

    Bryan Dunn is releasing a new CD on April 6th, 2012. He’s performing a CD Release Show at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2 at 7pm. I’ll be there, you should be too. It’s rare that I review CDs (before or after they are released). Mostly because I’m not a trained music critic/theoretician, nor […]

  • Ceili Rain at Good Shepherd Church in Rhinebeck

    Ceili Rain performed at Good Shepherd Church in Rhinebeck, NY last night. This is the second night in a row that we’ve seen a group that most consider Christian music. There’s no doubt that the label is accurate (if you analyze their lyrics and message), but both groups are so much more, that […]

  • Burlap to Cashmere at Next Charity Concert at Paulies

    Burlap to Cashmere headlined the Next Charity Concert Series show last night at Paulies in Pleasantville, NY. I’ve been hearing about Burlap to Cashmere (B2C) for a while now, all from the same person, all raves. I finally got to see them and only had to drive five miles to do it, discovering […]

  • The Callen Sisters at Next Charity Concert at Paulies

    The Callen Sisters opened the Next Charity Concert Series show last night at Paulies in Pleasantville, NY. I’ll start with the sisters, then talk about Next and Paulies. We went to see the headliner (covered in my next post), so The Callen Sisters were a pleasant surprise on a few levels. It’s not […]

  • Jesse Terry at Rockwood Music Hall

    Jesse Terry headlined Rockwood Music Hall last night. Amazingly, it’s been just over seven months since we’ve seen Jesse perform. I was sick the last time he played Rockwood. Since that time, Jesse has completed a new CD called Empty Seat on a Plane. It’s not officially released yet, but we have a […]

  • Tony Maceli Full Vinyl Tribute to Talking Heads and Alanis Morissette at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    That title is a mouthful. Just typing it out has taken the wind out of me. But, it’s descriptive and accurate, so I’m going with it. Note: There are no photos in this post yet. We’re running to Rockwood now for a 6pm show and I barely finished the words. Tomorrow morning I’ll […]

  • Jerry Fuentes and Derek James at Rockwood Music Hall

    Jerry Fuentes headlined a set at Rockwood Music Hall. We’ve seen Jerry headline only once, over a year ago, so this was a show I’ve been looking forward to for a while. Jerry’s finalizing a new CD as I type this. In fact, if you agree with me that Jerry’s talent should be […]

  • John Schmitt at Rockwood Music Hall

    John Schmitt headlined a set at Rockwood Music Hall last night. We used to see John frequently. I knew it’s been a while (with a couple of near misses recently), but I was actually shocked when I looked it up and saw that it was seven months ago. That’s just crazy talk. Glad […]
