SUMMARY:RAY KAMALAY
DESCRIPTION:RAY KAMALAY  is a jazz guitarist known for his work  as leader of the Red Hot Peppers.  He will appear here solo. \n\nIn the early 1930’s\, America was blessed with a heyday of small-band jazz\, the likes of which it has not seen since.  In ballrooms across North America\, hot jazz\, laced with exciting improvisation\, and ballads\, melancholy and blue\, told stories of joy and tragedy\, and provided rhythm for the feet of dancers of the two-step\, the Lindy and the Swing…Ray Kamalay and his Red Hot Peppers are reminiscent of this peculiar era.  With some of the finest players in the United States\, they play this music with all its  excitement  and sentiment.  They have wowwed audiences at some of the very finest venues\, including Interlochen\, Edinburghand the Philadelphia Folk Festival. Ray Kamalay is the singer\, guitarist and leader of the group.  A Detroit native\, Ray started playing professionally immediately after graduating from the University of Detroit in 1974.  Even then he showed an unusual interest in both folk music and jazz.  In that same year\, while searching for the ancient Celtic muse on the Shetland Islands\, he got his first big dose of the music of Django Reinhardt.  Since then his interest in both genres has only gotten bigger.Ray has worked in collaboration with many fine artists\, including Joel Mabus\, James Dapogny\, Johnny Frigo\, Betty Joplin\, the Chenille Sisters\, Jethro Burns and Ralphe and Howard Armstrong.  In 1997 his work with the Armstrongs was nominated for the W. C. Handy Award.  A student of the music\, Ray lectures periodically at the college level with a talk called “Freedom\, Slavery and the roots of American Music.”  His anecdotes are often highlights of the show.

SUMMARY:ERNIE HENDRICKSON
DESCRIPTION:ERNIE HENDRICKSON draws his inspiration from American roots music as varied as Bob Dylan\, Willie Nelson\, Neil Young\, Cat Stevens\, Jerry Garcia and others. \nHendrickson’s latest record\, Walking with Angels\, was made with veteran producer Bo Ramsey (Greg Brown\, Lucinda Williams) Played with a live band consisting of Bo\, Jon Penner on bass (Junior Brown\, Bo Ramsey)\, and Steve Hayes on drums (Greg Brown\, Bo Ramsey). \nAfter adding legendary Chicago pedal steel player Brian Wilkie (Alison Krauss\, Pam Tillis) on several tracks\, Bob Black’s banjo (Bill Monroe)\, and taking a trip to Nashville to record keyboardist Kevin McKendree (Delbert McClinton)\, the record shines as a true testament to Hendrickson’s ripening powers as a songwriter. \nRadio promotion has taken the sophomore album’s success to a higher level on both AAA and Americana stations. The album spent over 25 weeks in the Top 20 on Roots Music Report’s Folk charts and in regular rotation at nearly 100 different stations across the country including Nashville’s award-winning WSM-AM The Legend. \n“Dark and pretty songs. Ernie Hendrickson is finding a niche in the indie folk Americana segment. He is a storyteller like Harry Nilsson in a country mood.”\n– Hans Werksman\, Here Comes The Flood \n“Whether exploring tribal beats or graceful homegrown country hymnals\, E. Hendrickson stretches the song-writing pallet. He is drawing influences from Gram Parsons’ Burrito Brothers\, straight through the heart of the America’s Blues tradition.”\n– Martin Halo\, JamBase \nGive him a listen.

SUMMARY:ELLIS PAUL- CANCELLED!!!!
DESCRIPTION:Sunday night’s show has been CANCELLED because Ellis could not get a flight in time for the other gigs on this tour. His agency is trying to work quickly to get a June tour planned. We will know that replacement date (likely Thursday June 12) very soon and will post it on the website and on Facebook.  PLEASE CONTACT US if you have tickets or reservations for this show so that we will know you have been reached.  Sorry- those damn vicissitudes. \nELLIS PAUL \n“A singer songwriter is only as good as the times he reflects. In times like these\, when so many nuts are running the show\, it’s comforting to know that Ellis Paul is actually holding our sanity on his own stage! Wise\, tender\, brilliant and biting\, Ellis is one of our best human compasses\, marking in melodies and poems where we’ve been and where we might go if we so choose to. Personally Ellis\, I’m goin’ where you’re goin’!” –Nora Guthrie (Woody Guthrie’s daughter) \n  \nEllis Paul is one of the leading voices in American songwriting and one of the top songwriters to emerge out of the fertile Boston folk scene. He helped create a movement that revitalized the national acoustic circuit with an urban\, literate\, folk rock style that helped renew interest in the genre in the 90’s. \n  \nHis charismatic\, personally authentic performance style has influenced a generation of artists away from the artifice of pop\, and closer towards the realness of folk. Though he remains among the most pop-friendly of today’s singer-songwriters – his songs regularly appear in hit movie and TV soundtracks – he has bridged the gulf between the modern folk sound and the populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger more successfully than perhaps any of his songwriting peers. \n

SUMMARY:RANDY SABIEN w/ CHRIS WAGONER & MARY GAINES and BILL CAMPLIN
DESCRIPTION:RANDY SABIEN \n“Jazz violinists usually draw from one of two traditions. The best of both can be found in the superb Randy Sabien… he combines classical technique and folk energy in a program that’s still strictly jazz.”\nUSA TODAY \n“…The resulting sound is swinging\, rocking\, rhythmic and bluesy with a fiddle that often plays more like a saxophone than a violin. There are shades of Duke and Miles and you can certainly hear the echoes of the great jazz violinists from the swing era but above all\, Randy is a product of his time – someone who grew up playing the violin while immersed in the music of the 60s and 70s. ” \nCHRIS WAGONER & MARY GAINES will join Randy on the first set. \nOriginally a jazz-guitar major at the University of WI-Stevens Point\, MARY GAINES truly found her musical voice studying jazz cello under the tutelage of the great Richard Davis (bass player with artists ranging from Sarah Vaughn to Van Morrison) at the UW-Madison. Mary is also known for her amazing voice–often compared to Bonnie Raitt but definitely her own. She (along with her husband\, Chris) has done extensive work as a session musician\, appearing on albums such as Smashing Pumpkin’s Gish\, several Freedy Johnston\, Willy Porter\, and Carrie Newcomer albums\, and scores of others. \nA founding member of Madison’s Harmonious Wail\, The Common Faces\, The Bob Westfall Quartet\, and The Moon Gypsies (the latter three co-founded with Mary Gaines)\, CHRIS WAGONER has had his foot in just about every musical circle in Madison. Classically trained as a violinist\, (he also plays ukulele\, hawaiian guitar\, accordion)\, he met Mary while attending the UW-Madison. Switching to an alternating diet of jazz and classical violin studies\, while playing in bands ranging from rock\, blues\, bluegrass\, and country\, to folk and jazz\, Chris has been an in-demand performer and session musician in the region for almost two decades. \nBILL CAMPLIN will deign to play with Randy for the second set.
