Songs at the Arc Light Benefit
Arc Light Theatre 152 West 71st Street, East of Broadway New York, NY Price: $15
The cost to attend is $15 and the proceeds will go directly to the "BSTR" shelter for men inflicted with AIDS, so please come and help me support a great cause! The show has been organized by my friend James Lindberg who's play "The Set Up" is winding down a successfull run at the theatre. Here is the bill for Tuesdays show -
Jose Conde - Jose did the sound design and included some of his original music for "The Set Up".
Winner of the 2008 Indy music award for Best Latin Album, José Conde´s music fits into the powerfully danceable rhythmic system of Afro-Cuban music. A Cuban would say it´s got sabor de clave. He writes his own lyrics, too, and they have party flavor and humor, but they also have substance. Conde does his own arrangements – something few singers do – so both the charts and the production grow organically out of the words. check out his website at http://www.olafresca.com/
Marko Pankovich - Performing both as a solo artist and with Jose Conde will be his compadre, Marko Pankovich. The essence of Marko's music is "beautiful songs with sexy rhythms" or a jazzy blend of R&B, Soul, and funky pan Afro-Caribbean styles he likes to call, Afrosoul! You can check some of his music at http://www.myspace.com/sweetcanemusic
Alanna Vicente and Joe Davi - Alanna is a singer/song writer that will soon be featured on HBO's new series, "Song Story". Alanna also enjoys a very successful modeling career. Check out her website at http://www.alannavicente.com/ Also Check out Chocolate Seastorm, her first band.(available on iTunes)
Joe Davi - has worn a wide variety of hats in the NYC music scene: session guitarist, staff engineer, sound designer, producer, arranger and composer. He has appeared as a writer, producer or instrumentalist, working with artists such as Mya, Keke Wyatt, Foxy Brown, Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock, Noreaga, Big Punisher and The Michael Rabinowitz Quartet.
Claudia Martin - will also be singing a few of her jazz favorites. Her emotional and highly personal lyrics sung in both English and Italian, are guaranteed to draw you in. Claudia is a highly sought after musician who can often be found singing at The Rainbow Room, The Waldorf Astoria and various other top venues in and around NYC!
