MUSIC AT SUGAR POND

MUSIC AT SUGAR POND, a new concert series featuring International Recording Artist
Annie Sumi with Hastings’ own Adam Hart opening. Adam will perform a set for kids big and small.
Friday, August 12th from 6:00 – 8:00 PM
Sugar Pond is an actual pond adjacent to Hillside Elementary School.

Although admission to the park is free, your donations are graciously accepted. We ask that you donate $20 per family. Performers will receive 90% of the donations and the rest will cover production costs. Any remaining funds will be given to the Conservation Commission to support restoration efforts in Hastings-on-Hudson.

Annie Sumi is an ethereal-folk artist from Canada. Her music is intimate and expansive, inviting the listener into a familiar otherworld. Inspired by the mirrored relationship between physical and emotional landscapes, Annie’s music speaks of the human experience through the language of the senses. She has been nominated as ‘Emerging Artist’, ‘Female Vocalist,’ and ‘Songwriter of the Year,’ and her music is played on national (US and Canada) and international radio. It’s not just the beauty of her voice and her music, not just the charm of her onstage presence that makes her something special. It’s the way she shows you the world in a new light.

“Listening to Annie Sumi in concert is like taking a musical forest bath” – Carter Smith of Common Ground Concerts.

“Annie articulates her love of nature and humankind, and it comes through in each and every note.” – Kathy Sands-Boehmer, Harbortown Music

The concert is produced by Protect Our Woods, a volunteer entity created to inform the community about restoration efforts in Hillside Woods and to educate the public about our local ecosystem.

For more info about Hillside Wood’s preservation efforts, visit Protect Our Woods’ Hastings Green website, our Facebook page, or email protectourwoods@gmail.com. You can read about the Hastings-on-Hudson Conservation Commission’s additional ecosystem restoration projects around the Village HERE.

Concert in the Park
2022-08-17 19:00 | Harbor Island Park, 90 Boston Post Rd, Mamaroneck, NY, 10543, United States
Hollis Brown’s latest album, In The Aftermath (Mascot Label Group/Cool Green Recordings), is the deliciously depraved outcome of an all-night rock n’ roll riot. The Queens, New York-based quintet escaped to the Poconos to record with a few handles of whiskey, and, in one 24-hour session, ran down the Stone’s seminal first album of all originals, 1966’s Aftermath. Tracked live in the studio with minimal overdubs, In The Aftermath is potent proof the five-piece group is one of the last great American rock n’ roll bands.
“IIn The Aftermath is the second in a casual homage series. Previously, Hollis Brown issued, Gets Loaded, saluting Velvet Underground’s Loaded. This new album directly follows the band’s most successful release yet, 2019’s Ozone Park, which earned rave reviews from Rolling Stone, Billboard, Paste Magazine, Pop Matters, Relix, and Goldmine.
Hollis Brown formed in 2009, in Queens, New York, and came together around best buds, singer-guitarist Mike Montali and lead guitarist Jonathan Bonilla. The guys pinched the band name from the Bob Dylan song, “Ballad of Hollis Brown,” and its moniker neatly epitomizes the group’s commitment to melding a signature Americana blend with fine songcraft. These days the band is rounded out by Andrew Zehnal (drums) and Chris Urriola (bass). To date, Hollis Brown has released an EP, three original albums, and the aforementioned Record Store Day tribute to the Velvet Underground’s Loaded album.

Bruce T. Carroll
With the release of First Bird To Sing, Bruce T Carroll has continued to carve out a niche for himself as an Americana artist with a social conscience and a deft lyrical touch.
He spent fourteen years (1999-2013) operating the legendary Larchmont, NY music venue The Watercolor Café, where he presented regional and national acts of as well as new and undiscovered acts that soon broke upon the national scene. While presenting great music in a beautiful club setting was a labor of love for Bruce, it often kept him from pursuing his first love and overriding passion: lyric songwriting.

Title: Virgin Blacktop: A New York Skate Odyssey
Year: 2019
Country: USA
Genre: Documentary,Meet the Filmmaker
Director: Charlie SamuelsView Trailer

“VIRGIN BLACKTOP: A New York Skate Odyssey” is an uplifting and sometimes heart-breaking coming-of-age story about a funky crew of suburban New York City kids. To be specific, they were Rockland kids. When they met in 1977, they had nothing in common except a passion for skateboarding. Despite their vastly different ages, races and economic backgrounds and with their parents hands-off approach, they formed a competitive, traveling team of spirited outsiders called the “Wizards”. Now, nearly 40 years later, they remain lifelong friends but their lives have followed very different paths, from boardrooms to jail cells. Virgin Blacktop: A New York Skate Odyssey is an uplifting character-driven story about boys skating across boundaries to become men.
Nyack Village Trustee Donna Lightfoot Cooper will welcome the audience and introduce filmmaker Charlie Samuels and other Wizards who are present before the film.
Playing for free in Memorial Park, next to the river and under the stars, starting at 8:00 PM on Friday, August 19. Rain date, Saturday, August 20. Bring your own blanket, or better yet, lawn chairs.
Presented by Rivertown Film with VIRGIN BLACKTOP and Nyack Film Festival, with thanks to important funding from friends of Visit Nyack.
Our Community Partners include for this free screening include: The Village of Nyack, Nyack Chamber of Commerce, Visit Nyack, ACADA, The Nyack Center, Nyack Merchants United, and Nyack NAACP.
A discussion with filmmaker Charlie Samuels and members of the Wizards will be held on Zoom, on Tuesday, August 23, at 6:00 PM. Registration (name and email) is required HERE
“Virgin Blacktop explores the lives of Samuels’ diverse skater crew that met in Rockland in 1977. ‘It’s been almost 40 years since we named ourselves the Wizards – we placed in State and National competitions and one of us went on to be the first pro skater in New York City. Now we are fathers and husbands and our lives have spun off in different directions, but we’ve stayed passionate about the sub-culture of skating.’” – Bill Batson, Nyack News and Views (2018)
“The footage of The Wizards at exhibitions and competitions is a time capsule of long-lost Rockland: There they are in front of Bamberger’s in Paramus, New Jersey; at the Nanuet Theater-Go-Round, riding up a wooden ramp they had transported to the site on the roof of a car; slaloming down the hill on Nyack’s Remsen Street, with the Tappan Zee Playhouse as a backdrop. When they formed in 1977, The Wizards were: Nyack’s Kermit Taylor (who later changed his name to Jamaal Bey), Stephon White, and Umberto Brownlee; South Nyack’s Joe Humeres; Grand View’s Chris Kinzel and Jonathan Bell; Upper Grand View’s Ramsay Lewis; and Sparkill’s Samuels. Bell was 16; White and Samuels 15; Bey and Kinzel were 14; Lewis and Brownlee 12; Humeres 11. Before long, the towheaded Michael Offen, of Upper Nyack, whom Samuels used to babysit, was allowed to join. He was, Samuels says, ‘the best 7-year-old skater on the East Coast.’” – Peter D. Kramer, The Journal News (2018)
