Roots Review 32

We love you Kelly Caruso! You GO girl.
We'll be watching.

American Roots Live 32 was nothing short of spectacular Thursday night at the Bluetone Cafe.Billy K & the Pocono Players headlined and, joined by special guest Carl Van Camp, ARL 32 was a blast.
We kicked off with new comer, Michael Lopresti, who performed solo with acoustic guitar singing and improvising some cool original songs.Stand-out performances by Johnny Charles, Bernie BB Brauswetter, Jaimo Flynn, Arne Englund, Vern Mobley, Dan Balde, George Kokolis, Sonny Young, Arlene Schar, Roman, Dave Becker, Leo, Billy K, Ed Moore, Chip Bush and Mike P & the Joint Chiefs of Funk made for an electrifying evening in old Easton town.It was a memorable evening for one 9 year old student guitarist, who (accompanied by his father of course), sat fixed on the stellar, pro-guitar performances of Johnny Charles, Arne Englund, Billy K and Sonny Young. We look forward to this young man bringing his guitar to American Roots Live in the near future to perform with us.

John Powers & friends, EJ Rice and Josh Gebhardt headlined Wednesday at Crossroads with stand out performances by Mimi Nowak, Bob Del Rosso, JR Bradfield, The Doctor, Ed Pampani, Bones Sanford, Robert Z, Walter Foot, more.They reminded us all why our American Roots Movement is so significant and why each American Roots Live show so important.I hope to see you at American Roots Live 33 at Crossroads and the Bluetone Cafe on the 15th and 16th then ask you to look for Roots Review 33 to be posted from Phoenix, AZ during Thanksgiving week as American Roots Live and Elmore Magazine will join our good friend HoneyBoy Dupree on stage at Dessert Ridge Market Place on the 17th and the Rhythm Room on the 19th and 26th - these are two of the hottest Blues venues in the Valley. HoneyBoy Dupree & the Smokehouse Players, already 2002 IBC Award Winners, go for the 2006 IBC crown again on the 19th and we'll both be performing with Paris James and others at the Rhythm Room on the 26th. I'll let you know all about it in Roots Review 34 then I'll look to see you see you at ARL 35 the week after the holiday. Remember, there will be no east-coast ARL shows on Thanksgiving and the night-before.Did you know HoneyBoy Dupree is also a 2004 Arizona Blues Showdown Award Winner?

He also wants me to say hello to all of his friends in Jersey... Many thanks to our venues, ownerships and staffs and all of the talented, dedicated musicians and singers who step onto our stage every week. Thank you to all American Roots volunteers and ambassadors, our sponsors, supporters and friends. And most of all our fans. We need fan support to keep our shows alive - so that we can keep the music alive. Please join us. Bring a friend or two, or an aspiring musician, young or old, and have yourselves a great time.
Keeping it real,
Ned
