American Roots Live 20

American Roots Live 20 was memorable as we raised the bar again last night introducing a talented newcomer, The Wiliamzboy who played acoustic guitar and harmonica, showed lots of heart and delivered an enthusiastic solo performance of significant, original songs.

Also, HoneyBoy Dupree, ever the crowd pleaser, played his last night with us for a while. We were fortunate to have Arizona's favorite bluesman on our American Roots Live stage three times during his swing through Jersey including the live TV shoot Saturday past. We're sad to see him go but find comfort knowing he'll return again soon... and with Big Mac Mason.

Great performance efforts last night by HoneyBoy Dupree, John Powers & the Arturos, The Wiliamzboy, Snakeman Runyan, Copa, White Trash Hurricanes, Robert, Ed Pampani, Bones Sanford, Len DePiano, Evan Miggolozzi, Jimmy Somma, Bobby Malavenda, JR Bradfield, Rich Senator, Chaz, Freddie Macarone and Brad Sicotie.

Special thanks go to John Powers for his continued solid effort to promote American Roots on and off the stage.

And special thanks to other special people who help keep the American Roots Movement up and running, namely Win of Elliott Newcomb Designs, Amelia Lange, Mary Anne, Sue, Robert, Ed Pampani, Eddie Ray of Computown, Manville Music, LouMarc Signs, SDC Studios, Zupko's Tavern Theater, Uncle Wayne and our many thanks for support from Elmore Magazine, Richard Skelly and the Jersey Shore Jazz and Blues Foundation.

Keeping it real,
