SUMMARY:School of Music Slow Jam

WE LOVE TO MEET NEW PICKERS\, AND WE LOVE PUTTING ON A GOOD SHOW FOR LISTENERS!THERE ARE NO PRE-SHOW RESERVATIONS FOR THE JAMS! SUGGESTED DONATION AT THE DOOR. $5.00 per person Our jams are all about sharing songs\, making new friends\, and enjoying a relaxing and casual evening of irresistible string band music. ALL are welcome to join the circle for an afternoon or evening playing and listening to classic grass\, new grass and folk favorites. We sometimes refer to our genre as eclectic acoustic. Red Spruce and Adirondack Song Dogs will kick off each session with a few tunes then open the floor for musicians to lead their favorite bluegrass tunes and folk music\, backed up by the other pickers in the gathering. Simple tunes are always popular! So sharpen up your axe\, come prepared with your song\, and let us hear some good old fast\, high and lonesome\, some slow and low\, or a good old favorite. All are welcome! What is a Slow Jam? It is a group of string instrument players and singers who get together to have fun making music. The “slow” modifier indicates that it is targeted to the following musicians: people who have been playing solo and want to get used to playing in a group setting: people who have just learned how to play and want to play with others; people who have instruments that have been gathering dust for a “few” years; experienced players who are trying out playing instruments other than their primary instrument; people who are comfortable playing their instrument but want to become more comfortable singing/leading a song.. The tunes are played at 80 to 110 BPM and usually in basic keys such a G\, A\, D\, C major\, but it always sounds great to play in some minor keys such as “a”\, “e”\, and “g”. We will try to avoid “jam busters.” It is our hope that after this experience you will feel more comfortable playing at the many open jams and open mics that can be found in our area. \n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		Doors Open\n		Doors Open: 7:30 pm	\n	\n	\n\n		\n\n	\n		\n	\n						\n					Price\n					\n						Member\n						$27.11\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						General\n						$30.37\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						Child or Student\n						$15.18\n					\n				\n						\n				 \n				inclusive of fees\n			\n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n					\n				Get Tickets			\n					\n				Streaming\n			\n			\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		\n			Similar Events\n			\n				View All\n				\n			\n		\n				\n			\n				\n\n											\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Little Folks: City Birds\n\n				American Roots Family\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 4 • 3 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Bright Series: Olive Klug\n\n				American Roots Folk Singer Songwriter\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 4 • 8 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Matt Griffin Album Release with opener Jimi Woodul\n\n				American Roots Folk Singer Songwriter\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 12 • 7 PM

They typically play this area with their full five-piece rock band. Tonight\, as Luke and Will Mallett take the Caffe Lena stage in the footsteps of their father\, long-time folk favorite David Mallett\, they're leaving the drums back home and creating a special\, intimate acoustic trio for our venue.  In the spirit of folk music\, Mallett Brothers songs are filled with vivid imagery that captures the spirit of rugged Maine landscape where they make their home. They "punch it into high gear" with rock and country instrumentation\, creating "gutsy country rock" (Americana UK) that has been celebrated in the pages of Relix\, No Depression and Americana Highways.

We will also focus on the absolute essentials of being a rock solid bassist including: language\, sound production\, time and tone\, among others. ﻿   \n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		Doors Open\n		Doors Open: 6:30 pm	\n	\n	\n\n		\n\n	\n		\n	\n						\n					Price\n					\n						Member\n						$21.69\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						General\n						$23.86\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						Child or Student\n						$11.93\n					\n				\n						\n				 \n				inclusive of fees\n			\n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n					\n				Get Tickets			\n					\n				Streaming\n			\n			\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		\n			Similar Events\n			\n				View All\n				\n			\n		\n				\n			\n				\n\n											\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Little Folks: City Birds\n\n				American Roots Family\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 4 • 3 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Bright Series: Olive Klug\n\n				American Roots Folk Singer Songwriter\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 4 • 8 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Folk Heritage Series: Jay Ungar & Molly Mason\n\n				American Roots Folk Singer Songwriter\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 11 • 8 PM

WE LOVE TO MEET NEW PICKERS\, AND WE LOVE PUTTING ON A GOOD SHOW FOR LISTENERS!THERE ARE NO PRE-SHOW RESERVATIONS FOR THE JAMS! SUGGESTED DONATION AT THE DOOR. $5.00 per person Our jams are all about sharing songs\, making new friends\, and enjoying a relaxing and casual evening of irresistible string band music. ALL are welcome to join the circle for an afternoon or evening playing and listening to classic grass\, new grass and folk favorites. We sometimes refer to our genre as eclectic acoustic. Red Spruce and Adirondack Song Dogs will kick off each session with a few tunes then open the floor for musicians to lead their favorite bluegrass tunes and folk music\, backed up by the other pickers in the gathering. Simple tunes are always popular! So sharpen up your axe\, come prepared with your song\, and let us hear some good old fast\, high and lonesome\, some slow and low\, or a good old favorite. All are welcome! What is a Slow Jam? It is a group of string instrument players and singers who get together to have fun making music. The “slow” modifier indicates that it is targeted to the following musicians: people who have been playing solo and want to get used to playing in a group setting: people who have just learned how to play and want to play with others; people who have instruments that have been gathering dust for a “few” years; experienced players who are trying out playing instruments other than their primary instrument; people who are comfortable playing their instrument but want to become more comfortable singing/leading a song.. The tunes are played at 80 to 110 BPM and usually in basic keys such a G\, A\, D\, C major\, but it always sounds great to play in some minor keys such as “a”\, “e”\, and “g”. We will try to avoid “jam busters.” It is our hope that after this experience you will feel more comfortable playing at the many open jams and open mics that can be found in our area. \n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		Doors Open\n		Doors Open: 6:30 pm	\n	\n	\n\n		\n\n	\n		\n	\n						\n					Price\n					\n						Member\n						$21.69\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						General\n						$23.86\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						Child or Student\n						$11.93\n					\n				\n						\n				 \n				inclusive of fees\n			\n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n					\n				Get Tickets			\n					\n				Streaming\n			\n			\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		\n			Similar Events\n			\n				View All\n				\n			\n		\n				\n			\n				\n\n											\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Little Folks: City Birds\n\n				American Roots Family\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 4 • 3 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Bright Series: Olive Klug\n\n				American Roots Folk Singer Songwriter\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 4 • 8 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Folk Heritage Series: Jay Ungar & Molly Mason\n\n				American Roots Folk Singer Songwriter\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 11 • 8 PM

SUMMARY:Mary Fahl - Formerly of October Project
DESCRIPTION:American Roots Folk Singer Songwriter		\n\n		\n			Share:\n			\n								\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n			\n		\n\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	An ethereal\, viscerally powerful contralto who crafts cinematic songs with a haunting\, gothic romanticism.   Fahl first achieved fame as lead singer and co-founder of the mid-1990s NYC-based chamber-pop group October Project\, a band known for their lush harmonies\, sweeping melodies and Fahl’s unique and powerful vocals. After two records on Epic\, Fahl went on to pursue her own muse\, whether that meant writing and recording songs for movies (including the theme for the Civil War epic “Gods and Generals”)\, singing arias and medieval Spanish songs for Sony Classical or releasing a unique album-length take on “Dark Side of the Moon."  More recently\, Fahl launched her own label\, Rimar Records\, and her pop releases have garnered an Indie Acoustic Award for Best Live Album for Live at the Mauch Chunk Opera House (filmed for PBS) and a 2020 Independent Music Award for her holiday album\, Winter Songs and Carols.

SUMMARY:Peter Muller & The Kindred Souls with Cassandra Kubinski
DESCRIPTION:American Roots Folk Singer Songwriter		\n\n		\n			Share:\n			\n								\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n			\n		\n\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	Songwriters with a shared love of piano pop\, and a taste for mining the inner workings of the human heart to tell stories that inspire.  Pete and Cassandra have both headlined their own shows on Lena's stage. A chance meeting revealed a shared love of piano pop\, and a taste for mining the inner workings of the human heart to tell stories that inspire. Both artists have come to the intimate folk club stage following careers that took them far and wide. After excelling at Princeton\, and helping to revolutionize the field of quantitative trading – transforming Wall Street as we know it – Pete Muller returned to music\, the passion of his teen years. Backed by his band\, The Kindred Souls\, Pete delivers songs that grapple with the push and pull of responsibility and desire\, predictability and adventure\, commitment and temptation. His passion for truth-telling and urge to heal is palpable and infectious. Cassandra Kubinski is an actress\, singer-songwriter and music world activist based here in Saratoga. In addition to selling out her Caffe Lena shows over the past couple years\, she has opened for or shared stages with the Goo Goo Dolls\, 10\,000 Maniacs\, Anna Nalick\, Dickie Betts\, Lana Del Rey\, and many more. Her piano-driven pop shapeshifts from fierce and powerful\, to demure and catlike in a single set. She is\, in the words of none other than Billy Joel\, “very similar to the singer/songwriters of the late 70s; she proves that the genre can still be transcendent.” Sample Song Peter Muller Sample Song Cassandra Kubinski Stream this show live at Caffè Lena TV.

WE LOVE TO MEET NEW PICKERS\, AND WE LOVE PUTTING ON A GOOD SHOW FOR LISTENERS!THERE ARE NO PRE-SHOW RESERVATIONS FOR THE JAMS! SUGGESTED DONATION AT THE DOOR. $5.00 per person Our jams are all about sharing songs\, making new friends\, and enjoying a relaxing and casual evening of irresistible string band music. ALL are welcome to join the circle for an afternoon or evening playing and listening to classic grass\, new grass and folk favorites. We sometimes refer to our genre as eclectic acoustic. Red Spruce and Adirondack Song Dogs will kick off each session with a few tunes then open the floor for musicians to lead their favorite bluegrass tunes and folk music\, backed up by the other pickers in the gathering. Simple tunes are always popular! So sharpen up your axe\, come prepared with your song\, and let us hear some good old fast\, high and lonesome\, some slow and low\, or a good old favorite. All are welcome! What is a Slow Jam? It is a group of string instrument players and singers who get together to have fun making music. The “slow” modifier indicates that it is targeted to the following musicians: people who have been playing solo and want to get used to playing in a group setting: people who have just learned how to play and want to play with others; people who have instruments that have been gathering dust for a “few” years; experienced players who are trying out playing instruments other than their primary instrument; people who are comfortable playing their instrument but want to become more comfortable singing/leading a song.. The tunes are played at 80 to 110 BPM and usually in basic keys such a G\, A\, D\, C major\, but it always sounds great to play in some minor keys such as “a”\, “e”\, and “g”. We will try to avoid “jam busters.” It is our hope that after this experience you will feel more comfortable playing at the many open jams and open mics that can be found in our area. \n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		Doors Open\n		Doors Open: 6:30 pm	\n	\n	\n\n		\n\n	\n		\n	\n						\n					Price\n					\n						Member\n						$21.69\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						General\n						$23.86\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						Child or Student\n						$11.93\n					\n				\n						\n				 \n				inclusive of fees\n			\n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n					\n				Get Tickets			\n					\n				Streaming\n			\n			\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		\n			Similar Events\n			\n				View All\n				\n			\n		\n				\n			\n				\n\n											\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Little Folks: City Birds\n\n				American Roots Family\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 4 • 3 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Bright Series: Olive Klug\n\n				American Roots Folk Singer Songwriter\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 4 • 8 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Folk Heritage Series: Jay Ungar & Molly Mason\n\n				American Roots Folk Singer Songwriter\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 11 • 8 PM

Doors open at 6:30\, and the show begins at 7 pm with a live audio & video presentation by Chuck Vosganian aka “Rochmon”. In 1968\, after their 3rd album was released\, guitarist Dave Mason left for his solo career \, Steve Winwood joined Blind Faith\, and Traffic disbanded. In 1970 Steve Winwood\, started recording songs for a solo album and missed working with his bandmates in Traffic\, a few phone calls later Traffic was reunited with Steve Winwood\, drummer Jim Capaldi\, and woodwind player Chris Wood. No one called Dave Mason. The resulting album\, “John Barleycorn Must Die” is a masterpiece of acoustic progressive rock\, melding English Folk\, Rock\, Blues\, R&B and Jazz. Featuring the title song\, “Glad”\, “Freedom Rider”\, Empty Pages and 2 more “John Barleycorn Must Die” is a wonderful listen with loads of great stories. As always Rochmon will have some surprises in store! For Rochmaniacs at a distance\, Rochmon Record Club will also be streaming live on Caffè Lena TV. Tickets at caffelena.org A Rochmon Record Club Listening Party is meant to inform and deepen our understanding of the history of the individual performers\, songs\, and stories that went into the making of this classic album.

Onstage\, the group's enthralling performances give audiences a sense of how much they love what they do. On record\, including their latest offering\, 2023’s Lead and Iron\, released via Dark Shadow Recording – the band explores their collective life experiences through songwriting and intricate instrumentation. While bluegrass is the undeniable foundation of the Prowlers’ music\, the band bends and squeezes the traditional form into a keenly developed sound all their own. Working with the U.S. State Department and under their own nonprofit\, Bluegrass Ambassadors\, the Prowlers have toured over 25 countries across the globe. The group's experiences with people and musicians across Africa\, Asia\, Europe\, and the Middle East have shaped the band’s worldview and broadened the group’s direction towards bridging cultural gaps with music\, educational programs\, and workshops. Using traditional American music as a foundation\, connecting folk music\, customs\, and history the world over\, the Prowlers incorporate international elements into their already robust repertoire of unique traditional American music. Whether playing live or presenting seminars\, wherever they are\, the Henhouse Prowlers find and spread the commonality we share as human beings through the universal language of music.

We were already booked\, but there was no way we could pass up the chance to bring these two trailblazers to our audience so we made room for a matinee. Knapp is a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter\, author\, speaker\, and advocate. Her career includes the remarkable achievement of selling over one million albums with her first three releases: the Gold-certified “Kansas” (1998)\, “Lay It Down” (2000)\, and “The Way I Am” (2001). Alongside this commercial success\, Knapp has been honored with four Dove Awards and garnered two Grammy nominations. She is the first major artist in the Christian music realm to openly discuss LGBTQ+ identity. Her courageous stance sparked national dialogue and led to appearances on Larry King Live and the TEDx stage. She founded the non-profit organization Inside Out Faith\, dedicated to advocating for LGBTQ+ rights within faith communities. We're thrilled to welcome opener Flamy Grant back to our stage. She's a powerhouse vocalist\, intrepid songwriter\, and acclaimed drag queen from western North Carolina who blends folk\, gospel\, and roots\, transporting audiences with therapeutic\, theatrical storytelling and song. Her 2022 debut record\, Bible Belt Baby\, garnered international attention when it reached the #1 spot on the iTunes Christian Charts.

He began performing as a teenager in the early 1960s\, playing in Greenwich Village folk clubs alongside his siblings Harry and Steve as The Chapin Brothers. Over the decades his music career has encompassed both songs for adults and pioneering work for children. He has performed on Broadway as the lead in Pump Boys and Dinettes and served as host of TV’s National Geographic Explorer. In addition to his remarkable output of smart\, thoughtful\, funny and beautiful songs\, Chapin has long been an advocate for environmental causes\, issues of hunger and social justice\, and a supporter of music and the arts in public schools. Tom will accompany himself on guitar\, banjo and autoharp. “Tom Chapin is at the top of his game … warm\, wise\, whimsical\, and anthemic – and very right for our times.” (WFUV) Sample Song Stream this show live at Caffè Lena TV.

Stitched together from personal and universal ecstasy\, loss both intimate and ancient\, Maloney’s tremulous folk\, existential ballads\, and assertive rock encompass the whole of life. There’s been a spiritual thread running through her work ever since she began writing songs while living at a Zen monastery. Her wise art shows us the infinite in the details of daily life\, family love\, nature\, pursuit of identity\, and romantic commitment. "Her penchant for vibrant storytelling is reminiscent of the Indigo Girls or even the singer Melanie. Maloney’s ability to create a palpable intimacy between audience and performer is reflective of Dar Williams’ quiet roar." – PopMatters​​ Stream this show live at Caffè Lena TV.
