SUMMARY:8:20 Fest: Sophistafunk\, Moon Boot Lover\, Mosaic Foundation\, Rome
DESCRIPTION:Doors: 4:00pm \nAges: 21+ \nTickets: FREE SHOW!! \n  \nCome join High Peaks Canna for a special 1-year Anniversary Party\, featuring performances by Sophistafunk\, Moon Boot Lover\, Mosaic Foundation and Rome (formerly of Sublime w/ Rome). \n  \n \nSophistafunk is rooted in undeniable musicianship and authenticity\, blending intoxicating beats with mind-expanding flows. Mad scientist Adam Gold is known for his heavy synth basslines and funky vocals. He plays four vintage keyboards at the same time\, sometimes even while beatboxing! Gospel trained drummer and singer Emanuel Washington combines neo-soul with deep house\, reggae\, and more. Frontman / emcee Jack Brown evokes comparisons from Mac Miller to Michael Frantí\, but his lyrical skill and conscious vibes are truly one of a kind. The band also features musical guests\, ranging from brass instruments to guitars\, turntablists\, female singers\, & other surprises. Lately\, they’ve been touring with sax powerhouse Tommy Weeks of the Funky Dawgz Brass Band. \nSophistafunk is for music lovers. Through the years\, they’ve become one of the most exhilarating and fulfilling live music experiences around. They blend genres as a broader analogy for people coming together\, leaving audiences with an undeniable afterglow of funky positivity. For years\, Sophistafunk has been pioneers on the live music circuit\, unafraid to push boundaries with their sounds and their messages. And now the whole world is finding out. Catch a show\, and join the party! \nWebsite: www.sophistafunkband.com \n  \n \n  \n  \n \nPeter Prince is widely recognized in the independent music scene with fans from all walks of life and generations\, including many respected celebrity-level musicians. To date\, Prince has released seven original work albums\, written hundreds of songs and compositions\, and has honed a broad range of advanced level skills across songwriting\, production\, performance\, and visual arts. He currently performs live at diverse venues — from premier nightclubs to colleges and festivals\, with a rotation of top notch players behind him — delivering an incredible show\, proven to impress even the most skeptical audiences. He is also actively writing and recording new music\, for entertainment as well as commercial publishing\, licensing and special projects. \nPeter’s musical saga began in New York City in 1993\, with Peter at the helm as lead vocalist\, guitarist\, and songwriter of Moon Boot Lover — a power-packed ensemble consisting of Alan Evans (Soulive)\, and Owen Yost (Tommy James)\, and later joined by keyboardist Neal Evans (Soulive) and bassist John Hawes (Percy Hill). The band swiftly gained popularity in the emerging independent jam band scene\, with Peter honored to co-host the first annual Jammys — an awards ceremony presented by Jambands.com and Relix Magazine\, along with Jambands.com Editor-in-Chief Dean Budnick. \nIn 1997\, band members went their separate ways to pursue diverse stylistic paths while Peter continued to build on the spark lit under the namesake of Moon Boot Lover\, along with plenty of side projects and solo endeavors as well. Leveraging a deep network of talented players\, and attracting a wide cast of crew members rotating in and out of MBL’s lineup — Peter has remained the indomitable source of musical gravity as Lover’s perpetual front man — orbited over the years by such notable talents as drummers Andy Herrick (Assembly of Dust)\, Mike “Slam” Dunkle and Swiss Chris (John Legend)\, bassists Nate Edgar (John Brown’s Body\, The Nth Power) and Jeremiah Hosea (James Blood Ulmer\, Gloria Gaynor\, and Earthdriver)\, and keyboardist Jeff Merrow. \nAfter spending two years fronting Peter Prince & The Trama Unit (2001-2003) — a Muscle Shoals-influenced project that featured Johnny Trama (Ghosts of Jupiter)\, Eric Kalb (Charlie Hunter\, Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings)\, and the Benevento/Russo Duo — Peter resumed the mission he first launched back in 1993 with Moon Boot Lover: writing\, recording\, and performing what might only be described as his very own brand of “Rock-ET Soul” — an electrifying blend of the enchantment of Al Green\, the guitar wizardry of Jimi Hendrix\, the spellbinding songwriting of Jim Croce\, and the rock grandeur of Grand Funk Railroad and Led Zeppelin. \nToday Peter can be found on stage performing solo\, in a duo side project with singer/songwriter Rhei C. dubbed The Love Notes Project\, or fronting Moon Boot Lover’s current rotation of talented contributors including bassists Ben Carle\, Tom Martin and Mike Gruen\, and drummers Reed Dieffenbach\, Mike Migliozzi\, and Lee Falco… Boot to the Head! \nWebsite: www.peterprincemusic.com \n  \n \n  \n  \n \nMosaic Foundation is a vibrant roots reggae collective formed in 2009\, based in the Finger Lakes region of New York. Their music is a dynamic blend of roots\, ska\, dub\, dancehall\, and more—forward-thinking reggae that remains deeply connected to its roots. \nDescribed as “forward thinking reggae that stays true to the roots\,” the band captivates audiences with their electric live performances and three studio releases. \nWebsite: www.mosaicfoundationmusic.com \n  \n \n  \n  \n \nFor more than a decade\, Rome Ramirez has been the voice behind a sound that shaped summers and soundtracked road trips. As the frontman of Sublime with Rome\, he’s played to packed crowds around the world and helped carry the torch for a band that defined a generation. But now\, for the first time\, he’s stepping out entirely on his own. \nBorn in the Bay Area to first generation Mexican American parents\, Rome grew up surrounded by love\, hustle\, and music. Bob Marley played in the background. So did his mom’s classic soul and his dad’s rock records. He got his first guitar at 11 and started writing songs the way most kids played video games: all day\, every day. \nAt 20\, he landed the gig of a lifetime\, stepping into Sublime’s legacy and helping shape its next era. With four albums\, multiple gold and platinum records\, and collaborations with artists from Dirty Heads to Enrique Iglesias to Blues Traveler\, Rome built a career on versatility and straight- up talent. But somewhere in the middle of everyone else’s projects\, he lost track of what his music sounded like. \nHis solo work is a return to roots not just sonically\, but spiritually. It’s honest\, melodic\, and genre-fluid: a mix of reggae\, soul\, and rock that feels like if Bob Marley\, Leon Bridges\, and Tom Petty cut a record in Nashville. There are live instruments. There are lyrics that say something. And there’s no pretending. \nThe debut solo album\, set for 2025\, is full of the kind of songs that make you want to roll the windows down. “Why Me?” is a laid-back\, grateful reflection on the weird road Rome’s been on. “Back to the Start” is a love letter to long-haul relationships. And “Knew Me” is a wink at everyone who thinks they’ve got him figured out. He collaborated with various friends across the project\, including powerhouse producer Dann Huff (Taylor Swift\, Keith Urban\, Josh Groban\, Carrie Underwood)\, whose touch brought new depth to tracks like “Back to the Start” and “Why Me?” \nAfter years of writing for others\, he’s writing for himself again — in between raising kids\, playing backyard shows\, and chasing the magic that got him into music in the first place. This is Rome\, without the filter. And he’s just getting started. \nWebsite: www.romeramirez.com \n  \n \n  \nReturn to Calendar

SUMMARY:Latin Night w/ BoyBoy + Rafy Cabrera Band
DESCRIPTION:Doors: 7:00pm \nAges: 21+ \n  \nJoin us for Latin Night every Sunday at Putnam Place and get down to the hottest Latin beats by BoyBoy and percussionist John Ellis!  For this special Travers Weekend edition of Latin Night\, we are excited to also welcome the Rafy Cabrera Band \, who will be performing a set at 8pm. \nWant to learn Latin dancing?  Our friends from Tango Fusion Dance Company will be here from 7pm – 8pm (every Sunday) offering free dance lessons.  No partner or experience necessary! \nEnjoy a hookah on the patio\, provided by our friends at Hookah Mami’s. \nHungry? We will be serving up delicious Caribbean cuisine on the patio. \n  \n \nRafy Cabrera is a dynamic and genre-blending artist whose roots trace back to the Dominican Republic and whose sound reflects the rich cultural fusion of the Caribbean. Known for his commanding voice\, infectious rhythms\, and deep connection to Latin musical traditions\, Rafy’s style effortlessly blends bachata\, merengue\, salsa\, urban\, and tropical influences\, creating a sound that is both timeless and undeniably fresh. \nBorn in Gaspar Hernández\, in the Dominican province of Espaillat\, and raised in Puerto Rico\, Rafy was immersed in music from a young age. He grew up surrounded by the rhythms of the island and the storytelling soul of bachata\, eventually transforming those early influences into a musical identity all his own. As both a vocalist and songwriter\, Rafy’s work is known for its authenticity\, energy\, and ability to connect across generations and cultures. \nWhile many recognize Rafy Cabrera as a radio pioneer—helping introduce and promote some of the biggest names in bachata to Puerto Rican audiences—his musicianship has steadily carved out its own lane. Rafy’s performances combine live instrumentation with genre-crossing production\, and his lyrics often touch on themes of love\, resilience\, identity\, and celebration. \nOn stage\, Rafy brings a vibrant charisma\, winning over audiences whether he’s fronting a full tropical band\, delivering stripped-down acoustic sets\, or moving crowds with danceable\, high-energy tracks. His deep understanding of Latin music culture\, honed from years in broadcasting and artist development\, informs every performance\, making him a standout figure in the new generation of Caribbean music voices. \n  \n \n  \nReturn to Calendar

SUMMARY:An Evening with Shadowgrass
DESCRIPTION:Doors: 7:00pm\nShow: 8:00pm \nAges: 18+ \nTickets: $17 Advance / $20 Day of Show \n** Click Here to Purchase Tickets ** \n  \nWhen their instrumental prowess earned them a vast following on social media\, childhood friends turned all-star act Shadowgrass found sudden success. But as a young band\, the expectations that went along with a large audience proved daunting. “We felt a lot of pressure to make something uniquely us\, because we had such a big following\, and we felt that they deserved more than what we had given them as of yet.” explains the band. The group dug deep into their own musicality\, and tried to block out the noise for their sophomore release All That Will (release date: Oct 4\, 2024). “It turned out that dropping those self-imposed expectations and just writing/making music for our own enjoyment was the key to finding our collective voice and making a record we are all proud of.” \nShadowgrass began in 2014 when Clay Russell (Banjo)\, Luke Morris (Mandolin)\, Kyser George (Guitar) were jamming at the Grayson County Fiddler’s Convention in Elk Creek\, VA. Sometime before their first real show\, the name Shadowgrass was suggested simply because they thought it sounded “cool”. Kyser\, Clay\, and Luke were 9\, 13\, and 14 years old at the time. Now in their early twenties\, their influences and listening habits have changed drastically\, but the group has always grown in the same direction musically. They have welcomed fiddle player Madison Morris\, who also lends vocals and songwriting prowess\, and bass player Evan Campfield. Luke and Madison trade off lead vocals\, and harmonies seamlessly with one another. Their commitment to and keen interest in songwriting brings additional dimensions to the band\, allowing the group to appeal to listeners outside of the expected jam-band community. \nAs a very young band that has already been playing together for a decade\, Shadowgrass has a unique bond. “We’ve grown up together and have watched each other evolve into the people we are today”\, they say. “It sounds cliche but we definitely act more like siblings than bandmates”. On All That Will\, the group explores themes of anxiety and uncertainty\, and questioning the people they want to become. Luckily\, they’ve had each other to share these experiences with\, and it seems that their companionship has only pushed their artistic and musical abilities to new heights. \nWebsite: www.shadowgrass.band \n  \n \n  \nReturn to Calendar \n

SUMMARY:Saratoga Songwriter Night: Megan Houde & Matt Cosgrove
DESCRIPTION:Doors: 5:30pm\nShow: 6:00pm \nAges: 21+ \nTickets: FREE SHOW! \n  \nCome join us for our Saratoga Singer Songwriter Night featuring solo acoustic performances by Meghan Houde and Matt Cosgrove. \nMegan Houde is a singer/songwriter born in West Haven\, CT and now based in upstate New York. As a young girl she learned to play piano despite the challenge of being 80% deaf. She had dreams of being on a big stage with the spotlight on her performing in front of people. To pursue that\, she was enrolled in various music schools and performed in various church cabarets and school musicals (and MANY concerts in the backyard atop her monkey bars). After high school Megan relocated to Upstate New York and discovered guitar. She began writing and performing in the Lake George/Saratoga area as a solo musician and later with various bands. Those early gigs are where I found my voice and learned to connect with a crowd one room at a time. On any given weekend you could find her honing in on her craft locally\, and later touring the Northeast\, sharing stages\, chasing new sounds\, and growing through every mile. \nOver time she found a unique rhythm in performing with tribute acts. Each one brought is own kind of magic but a few became very special- particularly working with a range of incredibly talented Elvis tribute artists and performing as a vocalist for a Led Zeppelin tribute band. Those shows are a reminder of just how powerful and timeless music can be.\nToday\, she is proud to be the Co-producer and performer of the nationally touring show\, ‘A Man Named Cash- A Tribute to Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash’ . It’s a show that honors not just the music\, but the spirit and the storytelling that defined a generation- and it feels like the perfect next chapter in a journey that’s always been about heart\, authenticity\, and a love for performing. \n  \n \n  \n  \nMatt Cosgrove was born and raised in Saratoga NY\, the hidden gem of the northeast. His passion for songwriting and being a performer has led him to dedicate his career to being a musician/artist. Matt has recently finished his first Country EP in Nashville Tennessee. He lives & breathes music. Music is his identity. Matt is mostly influenced by Country music and 90’s Rock. He picked up the guitar at 10 years old\, and has been actively playing since he was 14. He is a natural performer. Matt is known for his captivating stage presence\, powerful voice\, and slick guitar solos. His goal as a performer and songwriter is to lift people up with his music and inspire them to always chase after their dreams. Keep an eye out for his live dates and stay tuned for new music in 2025! \nWebsite: www.mattcosgrove.com \n  \n \n  \nReturn to Calendar \n

SUMMARY:Chris Duarte Group w /Alastair Greene
DESCRIPTION:Doors: 7:00pm\nShow: 8:00pm \nAges: 21+ \nTickets: $15 Advance / $20 Day of Show \n** Click Here to Purchase Tickets ** \n  \nFirebrand blues guitarist Chris Duarte dropped his sophomore album\, Texas Sugar Strat Magik\, in 1994\, and it sold an excess of 100\,000 units. It was a big success for a modern blues album. Duarte went onto win the highly coveted “Best New Talent” in Guitar Player’s Reader’s Poll\, and he finished fourth in the magazine’s “Best Blues Guitarist” category\, behind legends Eric Clapton\, Buddy Guy and B.B. King. He would go on to issue a string of critically-acclaimed blues\, blues-rock albums\, and experimental fusion-tinged albums. In the ensuing years\, Duarte would also maintain an in-demand touring schedule both as a solo artist and as a sideman. \nThroughout it all\, fans have hungered for the ferocious blues stylist to dig into some Texas blues with his own unmistakable magic. For his 15th album\, his first since 2014\, he does just that: The Austin\, Texas blues guitar slinger teems up with Texas Sugar Strat Magik producer-guitarist Dennis Herring for the first time in 22 years. The resulting album\, the gritty and sexy Ain’t Giving Up\, out September 2022 on Mascot Records\, isn’t a calculated return to roots affair\, though. Recorded live on the studio floor with vintage gear and with minimal overdubs\, this is a raw and revved-up showcase for the blues virtuoso’s jaw-dropping chops; his mastery of the elusive Texas shuffle; and his deep love and commitment to the blues. \n“I planted my flag with Strat Magik\, and on this album I am pushing the music forward. I’ve explored lots of different facets of my playing\, but this album says\, ‘I’m here\, and I’m not giving up on blues or my career\,’” Duarte says. He continues: “And I’m not playing it safe\, either—the solos were all tracked live.” \nDuarte has been known for his physical and athletic playing style—he often plays so hard his fingers bleed while he’s onstage (there are photos to prove this legend). Because of this fiery dedication\, many fans and critics have playfully referred to his music as “punk blues” or “rockin’ blues.” “My style is super aggressive and physical\,” Duarte affirms. “These days I’m a bit older\, but I still put as much heart into my playing as I ever did—I still love playing.” \nThe guitarist\, singer\, and songwriter came up as a force to be reckoned with in the 1990s Austin\, Texas roots and blues scene. He rose to prominence in the wake of Stevie Ray Vaughan’s passing\, and was noted for his muscular playing style; his jazz and rock n’ roll-infused blues solos; and his command of the Texas blues tradition. Because of these soulfully virtuosic qualities\, Duarte was often compared to the beloved modern blues icon\, SRV. “I wish I was the whiz people think I am\,” he says with a good-natured laugh. “Whatever skills I have\, have taken years to gain—I practice a lot.” He continues: “I still want to be great and make my mark. I listen to SRV\, Jimmie Vaughan\, and others\, and I always get inspired to carry on the Texas blues tradition.” \nSince those early days\, Duarte has carved his own niche through a series of beloved blues-flavored albums\, and a calendar of more than 150 dates a year which includes performances billed as Chris Duarte and as The Chris Duarte Group. In both of these contexts\, Duarte has headlined major festivals and clubs throughout the US\, Canada\, and Europe. A series of explosive North Carolina shows were filmed for the PBS television show\, The PBS Project. Apart from his solo career\, Duarte has performed with Julie Burrell\, Diana Cantu\, Bobby Mack\, Tracy Conover\, Indigenous\, Omar & the Howlers\, and the Americana band Beth Lee & The Breakups. Incidentally\, Beth is Duarte’s girlfriend\, and she co-wrote many tracks on Ain’t Giving Up. \nAin’t Giving Up siphons from the same spirit as Texas Sugar\, but the new album is definitely its own monster. The album was tracked live as a trio with Texas Sugar drummer Brannen Temple\, but it also features a rhythm machine with some raw\, looped beat patterns Duarte plays over\, much like the same funky groove stylings as on J.J. Cale’s iconic 1971 album Naturally. “This album explores a wider spectrum of musicality\,” shares Duarte. “I love Muddy Water and Howlin’ Wolf\, but also feel like it’s part of me to introduce some unexpected influences. For this album\, I didn’t feel scared to explore beyond hard driving blues. I view this as expanding on the format that I love.” \nAin’t Giving Up is intimate and gritty\, but it also boasts pristine fidelity\, as if we the listener are in the studio with Duarte and his buddies. The album is a reset for Duarte that shows his resilience and his undiminished love of the blues. “I am so grateful to be signed to Provogue and to work with Dennis again—it’s been a dream come true\,” Duarte enthuses. “I have been so fortunate to play music and do my thing for almost 30 years\, and I couldn’t ask for a better life.” \nWebsite: www.duarte.rocks \n  \n \n  \n  \n  \n \nA native of Santa Barbara\, California and now residing in Austin\, Texas Alastair Greene has ridden his Blues-soaked rock into the 21st century\, traversing a constantly changing global (and musical) landscape. He’s well-equipped for the challenge\, carrying the diverse musical interests he developed at an early age\, intrigued by his mother’s piano-playing and a record collection that included The Beatles\, Stevie Wonder\, and Elton John. His father introduced the youngster to the sophistication of Bach and Beethoven\, yet it was Greene’s grandfather\, the late trumpeter Chico Alvarez- a member of the Stan Kenton Band in the 1940s and ’50s- who inspired him to pursue a life in music. \nHe received a scholarship to attend the Berklee College of Music in Boston\, where he studied for two years\, before returning in the early ‘90s to Southern California. Greene formed the Alastair Greene Band in 1997 and subsequently released eight solo albums (including two live sets and a compilation record) over nearly 17 years. 2017’s studio effort\, Dream Team\, landed a four-star review and Best Album of the Year nod in DownBeat; 2018’s Live from the 805 was nominated for Rock Blues Album of the Year by Blues Blast Magazine\, garnering inclusion on many ‘Best of 2018’ lists. \nA much in-demand guitarist and vocalist\, Greene traveled the world\, touring with the legendary Alan Parsons Live Project from 2010 – 2017\, as well as stints with Starship featuring Mickey Thomas and\, most recently\, (2018-2019) Blues Music Award-winner Sugaray Rayford. His work with Parsons\, in particular\, sparked a conversation with renowned multi-instrumentalist and producer Tab Benoit at a Las Vegas blues festival. In 2019\, Greene signed with Benoit’s Whiskey Bayou Records label and released 2 records\, “The New World Blues’ (2020) and “Alive In The New World” (2023). Greene toured the U.S. consistently in 2021 and 2022 opening over 100 shows for Benoit. \nAfter running into Thomas Ruf on a tour of Germany in 2022 opening for Walter Trout Alastair signed signed with Ruf Records and released Standing Out Loud in May of 2024. Standing Out Loud was produced by Greene. 8 of the albums 11 tracks were recorded in Nashville\, TN with JD Simo and the remaining 3 songs were recorded in Greene’s adopted hometown of Austin\, TX with Hunter St.Marie. \nWith a strong batch of original songs rooted in blues and southern rock traditions\, STANDING OUT LOUD builds upon the momentum created by his critically acclaimed solo releases of recent years. “Teaming up with Ruf Records for this album feels like a natural and perfect fit for the progression of my career\,” says the California native and multi-charting Billboard artist that Blues Music Magazine called “a major talent in the blues-rock category.” \nWith the album complete\, Greene is itching to hit the road. His 2024 tour schedule included festival and club dates across the U.S. and over 40 European dates. “I’ve toured Europe many times as the guitarist with the Alan Parsons Live Project\, and I’m excited to be bringing my music to the people.” \nWebsite: www.alastairgreene.com \n  \n \n  \nReturn to Calendar
