Annie in the Water (Goose After-Party), Putnam Place, Saratoga Springs, 11:30pm- 2am
Come join us for a special Goose (SPAC) after-party featuring Annie in the Water.
Annie in the Water’s Americana Indie Rock found its roots in acoustic guitars without limits. Over time, their songwriting and ability to traverse across multiple genres offers the listener experiences in rock, funk, reggae, hip hop, soul, dancebeat and jam with pleasurable melodies led by guitars and synthesizers overtop a ground-shaking rhythm section.
Honeysuckle, Caffe Lena, Saratoga Springs, 8pm-10pm
Glowing with gorgeous Americana and bluegrass warmth, Honeysuckle’s captivating two-part harmonies are woven over the rosy vibrations of an acoustic guitar or banjo, mandolin and synth. This duo of Holly McGarry and Chris Bloniarz creates instrumental arrangements and sonic language similar to acts like Boy & Bear, The Novel Ideas, and Shook Twins – bands who also give credence to harmonies and the interplay between their plugged-in folk instruments.
Sarah Borges Band Feat. Eric Ambel, Hangar on the Hudson, Troy, 8pm-10pm
One way or another, Sarah Borges connects with casual mastery. Whether it’s with the comrades she’s collaborated with over nearly 20 sparkling years of music-making, or the vivid portraits of people’s lives – and occasionally her own – she’s sketched in scores of emotionally resonant songs. But most of all, Borges has built a loyal following by connecting, through her own charismatic, down-to-earth spirit, with her audience – whether they’re longtime fans from back when she broke through with her terrific “Silver City” debut in 2004, or newcomers just now joining the party with her brand new 2022 album, “Together Alone”, her eighth. “Sarah’s a fearless writer and performer,” says producer Eric ‘Roscoe’ Ambel, “and she’s a very good musician.” As anyone familiar with Sarah’s songs and performances knows, genuinely soulful music that connects with us — and connects us to each other — can simultaneously steal, and heal, hearts. This connection is what has kept Sarah touring and making music for many years, and what keeps us coming back to see her do it.
