HAL WALKER MC
Friday, February 11
8:00 PM
Joe Culley has been playing drum set for 25 years in a variety of musical contexts — ranging from hardcore punk and classic rock to Latin, jazz, and other forms of world music. He has toured with blues legend Robert Jr. Lockwood and Wallace Coleman. Joe's jazz fusion group Osmosis has played many festivals over its 8-year span. opening for top international jazz groups. During the past six years he has been focusing upon the tabla drums of India. He has recently studied with international tabla master Zakir Hussain and Krishna Das's tablaist Ty Burhoe. When it comes to playing tabla, Joe feels he is barely dipping his fingers into the infinite sea of Indian musical heritage.
Mike Hovancsek is a musician who combines instruments and tunings from many different cultures with improvisation and extended playing techniques. He specializes in various Asian zithers, including the Chinese guzheng and the Japanese koto. His work appears on 23 CD releases both as a soloist and as a member of his multicultural group Pointless Orchestra. His latest solo CD, "Temporal Angels" is available from SRCA Recordings: http://standingrock.net
Eric Murray plays classical Indian music on the Sitar.
Mike Lenz plays a lot of roots music, especially from the Mississippi Delta, Memphis, and Piedmont regions. You'll also hear some Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, and other 50's and 60's era Chicago blues, as well as a bit of everything else from originals to swing and jazz to murder ballads to fiddle tunes to old country tunes to surf guitar and other instrumentals to whatever else he's in the mood for that night. Mike plays solo regularly every Tuesday at Northside and every Thursday at The Towpath Cabin (first Thursdays as a duo with Peggy Coyle).
Peggy Coyle is a legendary jazz singer from Akron.
John Jakes Mose is the name of an exciting new band that features a diverse range of musical styles and highly textured instrumentation. Created by Ron Ciarniello and Emily Parker, shortly after meeting as graduate students at Kent State University, the band has gone on to play numerous coffee houses and clubs in the Cleveland, Akron, and Kent areas in Ohio. Ron developed his skills as a founding member of "The Reason," a powerhouse quartet that gained popularity in Cleveland and Kent throughout a better part of the 1990's. Emily contributes a unique sensibility to the group based on her musical and rural upbringing and her degree in music from Heidelberg College. Mix in bassist Don Miller with his aggressive bass lines and smooth harmony vocals and you get the distinct sound and experience that is "John Jakes Mose."

UP FROM THE RIVER
featuring
WATERBAND, LISA & HEATHER MALYUK,
ERIC NODEN, and
RIVER BOTTOM BUSHWHACKERS
HAL WALKER MC
Saturday, February 12
8:00 PM
Waterband was founded by David McDougald, inspired by a higher calling and deep desire to send sincere positive vibrations into the universe through both expressive musical improvisation and thoughtful musical and lyrical composition. Waterband's form is ever changing, yet ever flowing...
Waterband's sonic depth and changing forms allow them to perform as a dynamic acoustic ensemble or as a full-blown electric aural assault! With a massive array of influences, drawing from classic rock, blues, funk, folk, and jazz as well as the ability to cover other artist's classic songs, Waterband is sure to please a diverse audience. Waterband has performed over 500 shows, since forming in 2001, in venues ranging from concert halls, local pubs and coffee shops, to weddings and corporate/political functions as well as radio and television throughout the Midwest and East coast all with the same positive response!
It has been only a year since Lisa & Heather Malyuk began to entertain audiences with their delightful music and already they have obtained recognition and a following in the northeast Ohio folk music scene. Both classically trained musicians, Lisa & Heather bring tunes to life with their distinct style and their charming performances.
As a product of homeschooling, Lisa & Heather were able to focus on their creative abilities in music and art at an early age. Both were introduced to the piano at age 4, and at 7 years of age Lisa took up the flute, while Heather began her pursuit of the violin. Lisa began her study of hammered dulcimer with Tina Bergmann just 2 years ago and has already adopted it as her primary instrument. Heather became interested in guitar through her increased exposure to folk music, and took up the instrument in late 2002. While Lisa has begun to focus entirely on the hammered dulcimer, Heather has continued to progress on violin and has recently been accepted into the Cleveland Orchestra Youth Orchestra. During 2004, Lisa & Heather have been seen and heard at Riverfront Coffee Mill, Arabica in Aurora, Viking Vineyards, Wolf Creek Winery, Hectic Art Studios Gallery opening, Paradise Art Gallery opening, Sonnet's Coffee House, Scott's Folkatorium, Mustard Seed Market & Cafe, Homegrown Saturday
Mornin' Farmer's Market, and numerous private events. The girls have also been featured artists on 91.3 FM The Summit's "Just Plain Folk" radio show, and both their live and studio CDs are in regular rotation on the show as well.
Born in 1969 in Kent, Ohio, Eric Noden has spent most of his life listening to and performing roots music. Eric was influenced greatly by his grandfather, a folk and country singer from Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania, and his father, who plays guitar. At age eight, after hearing his father play songs by Mississippi John Hurt, Eric was inspired to pick his first instrument: the guitar. Over the years Eric met and learned from many blues and folk musicians in Northeast Ohio, including fingerstyle blues expert Andy Cohen. Eric also learned a great deal from his father's record collection, which included recordings by Fred McDowell, Lightning Hopkins, Leo Kottke and Reverend Gary Davis. It was through local musicians and these records that Eric developed his unique style of fingerpicking guitar.
At 19 Eric joined an African-American gospel group named the Golden Wonders based out of Diamond, Ohio. With the Wonders, Eric performed in many storefront and rural churches in Northeast Ohio. Eric played rhythm guitar with the group for a year and absorbed the raw gospel singing and guitar playing into his own style.
In 1995 Eric moved to Chicago, Illinois, to pursue performing opportunities and soak up the blues sounds of the city. In Chicago, Eric has performed with many local blues artists, including Billy Boy Arnold, Erwin Helfer and Devil In A Woodpile. Eric has also taught classes in fingerstyle blues guitar and jug band music at the renowned Old Town School of Folk Music. Eric has become a regular performer at Chicago blues and roots venues, including the Chicago Blues Festival, House of Blues, Buddy Guy's Legends and the Chicago Historical Society. Eric's debut CD, "55 Highway," features music by Gary Davis, Big Bill Broonzy and Jim Brewer, and received favorable reviews in both the national and international press.
Based in Kent, Ohio, the River Bottom Bushwhackers formed in 1999 to play old-time American music at the Kent Farmers' Market. In June 2000 they were invited to become the house band for the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo's newly constructed Australian Adventure exhibit. They also perform regularly at the Columbus Zoo, as well as at music festivals and schools throughout northern and central Ohio. Their repertoire is an infectious blend of authentic old-time American, Irish, and Australian folk music. Current members:
David Badagnani (fiddle, accordion, xylophone, didjeridu, recorders, and vocals)
Mark Bussinger (bodhrán, lagerphone, washtub bass, washboard, drums, and vocals)
Jack DiAlesandro (acoustic guitar, 5-string banjo, tenor banjo, octave mandolin, harmonica, and vocals)
Renie DiAlesandro (acoustic guitar and vocals)
Tim Newman (mandolin, octave mandolin, tenor banjo, washtub bass, and vocals).
The Kent Stage is located at 175 East Main Street in downtown Kent, Ohio. There is FREE parking behind the theater and on all city streets.
