Joy on Fire Curating Month-Long Residency

THE WINERY AT SAINT GEORGE PRESENTS: FIRST-EVER ARTIST RESIDENCY

Every Saturday in June, The Winery at St. George will offer four powerful sets of great new music as JOY ON FIRE and one of four different guest artists alternate live sets throughout the night.TWASG 2014

“I’m happy to assemble these great local artists this month. They’re some of the best talent the Hudson Valley has to offer,” says Corinna Makris, owner of Elemental Events, a local event production company. “The Winery at St. George offers elegance and sophistication with a relaxed attitude. People will enjoy great music, fine wine and sumptuous food all in a breathtaking setting.”

The beautiful, 100-year-old stone church is now a stylish nightclub and restaurant. Prepare to be transported from the ordinary. “The Winery at Saint George is proud to continue its tradition of bringing the best in local and touring talent to our patrons,” says venue owner Tom DeChiaro.

All shows starts at 9 p.m. While there is no cover charge, The Winery encourages a $10/person gratuity for the artists.

JOY ON FIRE – Every Saturday in June

Defying tradition and often description, JOY ON FIRE emerged from Baltimore’s roiling avant-garde music scene. Bass, drums, and sax create a potent jazz-rock fusion known as Punk-Jazz and described as “Zeppelin meets Coltrane.”

JOE DURAES & THE SKILLS – June 13

With his warm tenor and electrified acoustic alt-rock groove, LoHud mainstay Joe Duraes weaves tales that explore themes of love, heartache, relationships, and the world we live in. Joe and his band currently perform live as “Joe Duraes & The Skills,” honoring their home base in Peekskill, NY.

JAGGERY – June 20

Moving from haunting lullabies to intricately woven mixed-meter rants to catharsis-inducing mini-epics, the band borrows pages out of the books of both Kate Bush and Alice Coltrane, suggesting a classical, organic, avant-jazz-oriented Cocteau Twins or a “white witch” counter to the haunting Diamanda Galas.

THIS SHOW WILL BE FILMED.
