Drawing on field hollers, gospel music, folk songs, pop melodies and bluegrass harmonies, Bobtown reinvents American choral music for the 21st century to create a unique and compelling blend of voices and instruments that move gracefully between elegy and celebration. "Among oldtime Americana bands, no one has better original songs than Bobtown."-New York Music Daily
The Jammin Divas are Aoife Clancy (IRE) Grammy Nominee with Cherish the Ladies, Becky Chace (USA), Kath Buckell (AUS), flutist Hadar Noiberg (ISR) and Craig Akin (USA) on Bass blend stunning renditions of traditional and contemporary original folk music and elements of improvisation from each of their cultures. Through stunning three part harmonies bedded against the plush melodic landscape of the flute and double bass, The Jammin' Divas draw the audience into an experience that transcends three continents history by sharing songs and stories of how each country culturally influence and enrich one another.
Boston-based duo Tall Heights has been headlining packed houses across New England, performing alongside national acts like David Wilcox and have toured down to Austin, TX to showcase at South by Southwest Music Festival. After two powerful EPs, Tall Heights is releasing their first full-length effort Man of Stone (May 2013). "...if you still remember how happy yours ears were when you first listened to Bon Iver or Arcade Fire and realized you'd stumbled into singer/songwriter oblivion...you can trust me when I say this show is worth seeing." -Boston Magazine

Hank Roth, of Oakland, NJ, the beloved husband of Emilie and father of Daniel, Alexander, and Wesley, passed away unexpectedly on February 2, 2013. Hank was an Outpost volunteer, a music-lover (John Lennon and Jerry Garcia were two of his favorites), an avid sports fan, and skier. Born in Jamaica, NY, Hank graduated from Syracuse University and the SUNY School of Environmental Science. He was a master craftsman, carpenter, and general contractor by trade and the owner of Greyhawk Construction for 25 years.
The Outpost is pleased to present this concert to honor the memory of Hank and to support Emilie (also an Outpost volunteer) and her family during this very difficult time. Please support the Roth family by donating to Just Give and writing in donation for The Roth Family or send checks to: The Roth Family c/o St. Alban's Episcopal Church, 1 Church Lane, Oakland, NJ, 07436.
Jeb Guthrie and Jock Guthrie, The Guthrie Brothers, knew the first time they played a Simon & Garfunkel song that they had a natural and almost spiritual connection to it. "Our voices seemed to blend effortlessly into that S & G signature sound, and the overwhelming audience reaction to our first tribute performance confirmed our feelings," Jock says. "Since that first performance, we've worked to perfect our tribute to these two amazing artists."
The New York-based musicians perform this tribute with startling authenticity in an "unplugged" acoustic style. The brothers have been singing together for as long as either one of them can remember-–a major reason for the perfect blend of their harmonies. Both men play acoustic guitar and sing.
"The music that we play is truly an extension of who we are," Jock says. "Our philosophy is to do songs that we feel directly connected to, and we can trace these connections back to shared experiences and feelings from our childhood in Green Bay, Wisconsin."
"We think this is the reason we can be so faithful to the spirit and sound of whatever period or type of music we're playing--including our own music. We play together as one," Jeb says.
The Guthries' original music received national attention with the release of their self-titled, debut album. The album garnered extensive airplay on both Americana and Country radio stations. About the album, Billboard magazine said, "Many stations will find the well-written, heartfelt lyrics and wonderful harmonies a welcome addition to their airwaves." The album has been re-released and can be heard and purchased online at the iTunes Music Store and Rhapsody.
