Tom Akstens, Neil Rossi & The Kossoy Sisters
Caffe Lena
Saratoga Springs, NY
Take a trip in back in time to Washington Square Park, early 60s, a Sunday afternoon just after the summer. All around you are the sounds of folk songs and country blues brought to the burgeoning Greenwich Village scene by earnest folk revivalists. Tom, Neil and the Kossoy Sisters were all there.
Tom and Neil have spent decades honing their craft while staying true to their roots. Enjoy their fun and masterful old-time string band tunes, roadhouse tearjerkers, country blues, ragtime, original songs and back-porch humor.
The Kossoy Sisters recording of Ill Fly Away was included in the film Oh, Brother, Where Art Thou? After releasing an album in 1959 at the age of 17 (theyre identical twins) they went on to the Newport Folk Festival, Fox Hollow Festival, and then a long break before resuming touring in the late 90s, playing for younger listeners hungry for their timeless harmonies and mountain music. It is such a delight to hear their Real Deal singing!
Note: Caffe Lena is an all-ages listening room that does not serve alcohol. Desserts, light vegetarian fare, and organic fair-trade coffee are offered at all shows. //
