SUMMARY:Rock Tavern Chapter: Jay Strauss
DESCRIPTION:The Rock Tavern Chapter of the Hudson Valley Folk Guild is pleased to be featuring Jay Strauss. \nJay Strauss\, a Hudson Valley-via-Bainbridge Island artist\, has crafted his debut album\, “Based on a True Story\,” with a deep connection to his musical roots. Influenced by the likes of The Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter\, and inspired by his surroundings and experiences\, Strauss’s work is rich with imagery\, social commentary\, and a touch of playful absurdity. His music\, described as a melodic puzzle box\, is built on atypical chord structures and opaque lyricism\, polished to perfection by the talented producer Andy Stack and a team of skilled musicians. Strauss’s album is the culmination of years of musical exploration\, shaped by a supportive community of creatives and his own journey through life and music. \n“Strauss uses his rough tenor and a concise approach to offer reflections on the human condition. An album that fascinates\, revealing its subtleties to those willing to get lost in its intricate details.” – TecoApple \nAlbum review https://waxvinylrecords.co.uk/jay-strauss-reviving-retro-vibes-with-sakura-and-detour/ \n~~~~~\n\nOpen mic performances will be available to all.\nCost of admission for this event is $7 ($6 for Folk Guild members and seniors).  Signup begins at 6:30pm and open mic begins at 7:00.  The featured performance is expected to begin at approximately 8:00. \nThe Unitarian Universalist Congregation at Rock Tavern is located in the Town of New Windsor at 9 Vance Road\, Rock Tavern\, NY\, off Route 207\, 3.4 miles west of Rte 300; or take I-84 to Exit 5A\, Rte 747 south to Rte 207\, make a right and take the second left. \nFor more information contact the President of the Rock Tavern Chapter of the Hudson Valley Folk Guild at HVFGRockTavern@hudsonvalleyfolkguild.org.

SUMMARY:Rock Tavern Chapter: Dave Kearney
DESCRIPTION:The Rock Tavern Chapter of the Hudson Valley Folk Guild is pleased to be featuring Dave Kearney. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPerhaps the reason that Dave Kearney’s songs are so powerful is that he has actually lived them. His heartfelt performances elicit nods of recognition\, tears\, and a line of people coming up to him after the show to tell him which song moved them the most. Sometimes it’s the one about a wounding father/daughter relationship\, or the tragedy of addiction\, or a shattering love triangle\, or a sacred experience of the natural world. Sure he has had influences. But that is not enough. And obviously he has studied his craft well. But it is the crucible of his life experiences that makes Kearney a commanding artist. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOpen mic performances will be available to all.\nCost of admission for this event is $7 ($6 for Folk Guild members and seniors).  Signup begins at 6:30pm and open mic begins at 7:00.  The featured performance is expected to begin at approximately 8:00. \nThe Unitarian Universalist Congregation at Rock Tavern is located in the Town of New Windsor at 9 Vance Road\, Rock Tavern\, NY\, off Route 207\, 3.4 miles west of Rte 300; or take I-84 to Exit 5A\, Rte 747 south to Rte 207\, make a right and take the second left. \nFor more information contact the President of the Rock Tavern Chapter of the Hudson Valley Folk Guild at HVFGRockTavern@hudsonvalleyfolkguild.org.
