O’Connell (drums).\nOn stage\, Eric Lee carries himself with assurance and ease\, and tells stories both unique and relatable\, and often comical.

SUMMARY:Rock Tavern Chapter: Buckets of Blarney
DESCRIPTION:The Rock Tavern Chapter of the Hudson Valley Folk Guild is pleased to be featuring Buckets of Blarney. \n \nAs with most legends\, the history of Buckets of Blarney has been lost to time.  What little we do know has been gleaned from folklore\, song and the illustrated writings of the monks of the Order of St. Brendan. \nWe do know from birth records that the Bucket brothers\, Buddy (1438)\, Billy (1439]\, Barney (1440) and Santiago (1442)  were born near the Blarney Castle in County Cork\, Ireland.  Despite extensive research\, however\, no record of death can be found for any of the brothers\, which has given rise to the legend that they are living still. \nAs the story is told\, the brothers were singers of some renown throughout Cork and Kerry.   One day\, they were called to perform for the king of the leprechauns\, King Brian.  Unfortunately for the Buckets\, they were double booked for the evening and chose not to attend the King’s event.  Understandably\, the King was irate and swore that “If they won’t play for me\, they won’t play for any one” and the brothers instantly vanished. \nThe true cruelty of the King’s curse was not known until one St. Patrick’s Day when the brothers appeared in a pub outside the Blarney Castle.  They revealed that they were sent into the mists to wander a barren land where neither whiskey nor beer could be found.  It was only after hundreds of years that the King relented slightly and allowed that once a year\, for one day\, the brothers would be permitted to return to the real world to drink and sing.  When the day ended\, they would be banished once again. \nIn recent years\, for reasons unknown\, the Buckets have mysteriously appeared at Captain Jake’s in Newburgh\, NY where they sing and try to make up for 364 days without whiskey. \n\n\n\n\nOpen Mic: \nOpen mic performances will be available to all. The Zoom meeting opens at 7 for signin\, sound check\, and socializing.  The open mic begins at 7:30. \nIf you wish to perform\, please add your name and email to the link below.

SUMMARY:Rock Tavern Chapter: Whispering Tree
DESCRIPTION:The Rock Tavern Chapter of the Hudson Valley Folk Guild is pleased to be featuring The Whispering Tree. \nCalled “one of the most talented duos to take stage in NYC” by Deli Magazine\, The Whispering Tree are singer/songwriter Eleanor Kleiner and multi-instrumentalist Elie Brangbour. Together\, they craft richly immersive folk-rock brimming with evocative lyrics and a panoramic musicality.\n \nInvisible Forces\, the fourth recording by the fiercely independent twosome\, debuted at #1 on the International Folk DJ charts\, with four songs in the top 20.  The album was self-produced\, fan-funded and recorded at Elie and Eleanor’s home studio in Beacon\, NY and at Old Soul Studio in Catskill\, NY and explores a deeply personal and political landscape\, with themes of hope\, despair and social consciousness. \nThe lead single\, “Fat Cat” has antecedents in Elie’s French background and the old-time gypsy jazz tradition back in his hometown while the satirical\, anti-capitalist sentiment of the lyrics is firmly rooted in the protest songs of the folk revival. \nOther album highlights include the impressionistic “These Houses\,” a song describing the haunting beauty of abandoned places; the revelatory “Heavy\,” which with elegant grace\, connects New Orleans-style jazz with the 1960s rock and pop harmony vocal tradition; the darkly foreboding environmental ballad\, “Garden;” and the sweetly rousing protest song “Bells.” \nSince its 2007 inception\, The Whispering Tree has issued two albums and two EPs\, and toured nationally and internationally. The duo has also earned prime critical acclaim from The Big Takeover Magazine and Keyboard Magazine\, among others. Other marquee career moments include being Kerrville New Folk finalists; Philadelphia Songwriter’s Project winners; and Eleanor and Elie having the honor to lend their voices to Pete Seeger and Lorre Wyatt’s album\, A More Perfect Union. \nOpen Mic: \nOpen mic performances will be available to all. The Zoom meeting opens at 7 for signin\, sound check\, and socializing.  The open mic begins at 7:30. \nIf you wish to perform\, please add your name and email to the link below.
