The Village of Egg Harbor Presents
2010 SUNSET CONCERT SERIES - FREE CONCERTS
PEG EGAN PERFORMING ARTS CENTER
Is it blues, is it classical?
Walking the line between Beethoven and B.B. King and armed with the creative genius and instrumental prowess that have defined his career for nearly four decades, Corky has pioneered an original, genre-busting Chamber blues - a fresh, innovative sound capturing the sparkling qualities of classical music merged with the emotional melodic style of blues, all within an intimate chamber setting.
Under Corky's lead, The West End String Quartet and percussionist Frank Donaldson complete the Chamber Blues Band. Described by critics internationally as: remarkable, astonishing, extraordinary, hot, mesmerizing, joyous and outrageous fun, their music and concerts have delighted diverse audiences globally and their genre-defying presentations are drawing new and old concert-goers to places they have never been before. And you won't want to miss Dorothy Scott, who will add a new dimension to Chamber Blues.

A.J. Swearingen and Jonathan Beedle have been performing this remarkable tribute to the music of Simon & Garfunkel for more than a decade and their sold out shows prove the effect on their audiences is undeniable. With a quiet stage and an acoustic guitar, A.J. and Jonathan recreate the memories of both classic hits and and obscure songs of Simon & Garfunkel.
The Wainwright kids have been hogging the limelight recently, but Pops Loudon is back to remind everyone where they heard it first. They're billing him as "American songwriting legend" on the promotional material, and for once the term verges on understatement. There's no more endangered a species than the wholly original songwriter, and to watch Wainwright in action is to catch a little fragment of history on the hoof. The only conventional aspects of his work are that he uses a traditional six-string guitar and a piano with the regular number of keys on it, but where another man's work might end, that's exactly where Loudon's begins. And, Corey Carlson puts on a magical show with his bluesy voice and totally original tunes. In case of rain, this concert will be held at Orchards Golf Course,
Hwy. 42 N, east on EE, right on Heritage Lake Rd. to 8125

This Lansing, Michigan quartet brilliantly updates a resurging American musical genre. These guys are real showmen of old-time country swing. Rachel Davis joins Steppin In It to form Shout Sister Shout.
Singer-songwriter Jane Siberry is known for such hits as "Mimi on the Beach", "I Muse Aloud", "One More Colour" and "Calling All Angels". She has also released material under the name Issa. Her music has drawn from a wide variety of styles, ranging from new wave rock on her earlier albums to a reflective pop style influenced by jazz, folk, gospel, classical and liturgical music in her later work. Joining her is Special Guest Dorothy Scott, whose feather-light melodies and insinuating hooks make her songs as intellectually stimulating as they are emotionally empathetic.
Howard Levy is a musician without limits. His musical adventures include journeys into jazz, pop, rock, world music, Latin, classical, folk, blues, country, theater, and film. He has appeared on hundred of cd's, won a Grammy, won a Joseph Jefferson Award for Best Original Music for a Play, and has performed many times on American and European television and radio.
Universally acknowledged as the worldıs most advanced diatonic harmonica player, Howard developed a fully chromatic style on the standard 10-hole diatonic harmonica, revolutionizing harmonica playing and taking the instrument into totally new territory. He is also an accomplished pianist and composer. Guitarist Chris Siebold has a seemingly limitless technique. Backing that up is an intensely soulful, expressive drive that makes him one of the most compelling guitarists playing in any genre today. Some of his originals also showcase his fine acoustic guitar and bouzouki playing, an unexpected treat.
