Make Your Family Band Dreams Come True with the Grammy Award-winning Dan Zanes Meet Dan Zanes & Claudia Elias Grammy Award-winner Dan Zanes occupies a unique place in American music.

  • CNHI Woodstock 20190814
    A half-century later, the mother of all music festivals still resonates ifty years after the fact, it still resonates with us. Tucked up in the Catskill Mountains, the Woodstock Music & Art Fair — promoted as “An Aquarian Exposition, Three Days of Peace and Music,” but known to one and all as simply Woodstock — took place in 1969 over three-plus days. From Friday, Aug. 15, through the morning of Monday, Aug. 18, dairy farmer Max Yasgur’s 600- acre parcel of land in Bethel, New York — forever immortalized in Joni Mitchell’s “Woodstock” (ironically, she wasn’t at the event itself) — became the epicenter of the music and cultural universe, a haven for 400,000-plus hippies, bohemians, music lovers and mem- bers of the counterculture. It began when folkie Richie Havens began strumming his gui- tar, kicking off the festival with Paul Gerry/Bethel Woods Collection “From the Prison.” Thirty-two more acts, about 66 hours and several rainstorms later, it ended when guitar god Jimi Hendrix capped off a stellar set with his rendition of “Hey Joe.” Thousands of cars were left stranded for miles and miles en route to the venue as concertgo- ers walked to their destination. Tickets for the festival were $18, but many attendees got in for free when the crowd more than tripled what organizers had anticipated. Dallas Taylor, the drummer for supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (playing just its second-ever show), asked the helicopter pilot James Sarles/Bethel Woods Collection James Sarles/Bethel Woods Collection flying him to the event what body of More than 400,000 people descended on a dairy farm in Bethel, N.Y., for the concert held 50 years ago.

  • Bearsville Theater
    BEARSVILLE Heartbeat of Woodstock The 15 acre Bearsville site was designed and built by legendary music impresario Albert Grossman in the 1960’s and 70’s. Albert managed Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, The Band and countless other remarkable artists. He chose Bearsville because of its pastoral setting alongside the banks of the Sawkill Creek. He saw Bearsville as a utopian home for his artists to live, write, record, and perform new music in a relaxed bucolic environment, just two hours from NYC. Albert was aided by John Storyk, the architect of acoustic spaces architect who famously designed Jimi Hendrix’s Electric Lady Studios in NYC. The studios and record label thrived and were successful, even after Albert’s early and Utopia unexpected passing in 1986. Both enterprises have since closed. At the heart of the Center today stands Bearsville Theater, long enjoyed by musicians and music lovers who want to experience the sights and sounds that inspired some of music’s most important writers, singers and performers. Although the Theater opened in 1989, there followed more than 25 years of ownership changes, and the complex never fulfilled Albert’s complete vision. OVERLEAF x BEARSVILLE THEATER 277-297 Tinker Street • Woodstock, NY 12498 BearsvilleTheater.com In 2019 the social entrepreneur Lizzie Vann purchased the Center and began a wholesale renovation, rebuilding Bearsville back into a place for artist development – as Albert wanted it to be. The goal today is to encourage and support future generations of artists, in the same way that Albert saw the need for a whole-person approach to nurturing the creative spirit of his artists.

  • Billy Jonas and His Band Bring ‘Neo-Tribal Hootenanny’ to CL
    Billy Jonas and his band bring ‘neo-tribal hootenanny’ to CL By JAMI KUNZER • [email protected] “It’s easy for people to be part of the music and to feel like the song has been part of their lives even if they’ve never heard it,” he said. At a performance of Jonas and the Billy Jonas Band, the audience is invited to participate as Jonas combines conventional instruments of guitar, bass and marimba with homemade creations, such as buckets and barrels, keys and cans, bells and body percussion. His three goals: to have fun, to make it easy and to sound good. “Adults and kids are equally entertained,” Jonas said. “We look for the balance between asking them to be part of it and asking them to go along for the ride.” Jonas performs throughout the country and Canada. His CD, “What Kind of Cat are You?!” has received multiple awards, including a First Place/Gold from the American Federation of Independent Musicians and Parent’s Choice Gold. Growing up in Chicago, Jonas learned instruments, such as piano, guitar and trombone, at a young age. But, he said, “The most joy I had was when I was with my friends playing rhythms in the kitchen on pots and pans.” He and his friends would bang on the pans with chopsticks. In college, they turned the act into a band called “The Oberlin Big Bang Theory.” After college, Jonas began writing songs and playing them at coffeehouses. He’d present them “raw,” using only a water bottle drum and his voice.
