Cymbals Eat Guitars – September 7, 2012
Cymbals Eat Guitars – Williamsburg Park – September 7, 2012 One more new (to me) venue – Williamsburg Park (audience in the empty massive swimming pool); one more late summer evening that’s too dark to sketch the headliner (in this … Continue reading

Second Saturday Band/State of Being – September 1, 2012
Second Saturday Band/State of Being – Brewster – September 1, 2012 The occasion was the first Village of Brewster Film and Food Festival, taking place in my home town! While the food was happening (outdoors), the Second Saturday Band let … Continue reading
Steve Wiggins Band – August 13, 2012
Steve Wiggins Band – Carillon Beach – August 13, 2012 Just because I visit the Florida panhandle (AKA redneck Riviera) is no reason to ignore the local talent. The beach housing community of Carillon Beach (located technically within Panama City … Continue reading

Gary Clark Jr. – July 28, 2012
Gary Clark Jr. – Central Park Summerstage – July 2, 2012 Clark is the latest in the line of hot Texas electric blues guitar-slingers. He has dialed (and loudly!) into Hendrix’s tone, skipping over the let’s-bring-Jimi-to-Texas of SRV, and instead … Continue reading

Stanley and Grimm – July 25, 2012
Stanley and Grimm – Kate Gould Park, Chatham MA – July 25, 2012 Was fortunate to come across this gig while on the Cape. This whimsically-named guitar/fiddle duo covered trad Celtic jigs and reels (as if I knew the difference) … Continue reading

Charles Bradley – July 12, 2012
Charles Bradley – World Financial Center – July 12, 2012 Here’s my suggestion for an SAT analogy question – oops, they’ve been discontinued. Okay, let’s make it for the GAT – the Gambino Attitude Test: Tina Turner is to Bettye … Continue reading
La India / Zon del Barrio – July 10, 2012
La India / Zon del Barrio – Rockefeller Park – July 10, 2012 Both of these groups had relatively full Latino mini-orquestras backing up, so there was never any thin-ness of sound. ZDB dedicated their set to the recently passed … Continue reading
Gretchen Parlato / Gregory Porter – June 27, 2012
Gretchen Parlato/Gregory Porter – Madison Square Park – June 27, 2012 Two GP vocalists at one gig, neither of which I was familiar with beforehand, both proving worthy. Additional post-production research was therefore necessary, for more background filler (or, trivia, … Continue reading
Dianne Reeves – June 16, 2012
Sing the Truth (Soul Sisters) – New Haven Green – June 16, 2012 Unsure how to notate this gig, as their own press has shown some ambiguity. The overall event is the weeks-long International Festival of Arts and Ideas, and … Continue reading
