SUMMARY:City Winery presents… DONNA THE BUFFALO
DESCRIPTION:Distinctive\, groove-heavy\, and danceable\, Donna the Buffalo is a band for the people \nOne of the most dynamic and determined bands continuously touring America for since 1989\, Donna the Buffalo has created a community environment at their shows through their distinctive\, groove-heavy\, and danceable music. Donna the Buffalo is a band for the people that is accessible\, positive\, and memorable. With roots in old time fiddle music that evolved into a soulful electric American mix infused with elements of cajun/ zydeco\, rock\, folk\, reggae\, and country\, Donna’s music often contains social and moral responsibility as core beliefs\, and they are just simply fun to get out and celebrate life with. \n“For the dizzying array of styles and genres with which they work\, Donna The Buffalo maintain a surprising level of consistency… over the course of their 25-year career\, they retain a sharp focus that has helped them create some truly lasting music…” writes Elmore. “Few groups are this comfortable as performers\, and even fewer would take as many risks.” \nDonna the Buffalo announced The Stampede: A tour to raise awareness to the inappropriate use of corporate money in politics. They’ve joined forces with Ben Cohen\, Co-Founder of Ben & Jerry’s\, who has started stamping slogans on currency in protest (stampstampede.org). “As a band\, we have made a long term commitment to join this burgeoning movement\,” says Jeb Puryear. “It is clear to us that we will never get significant government action on issues like healthcare\, student debt\, wall street banks\, the environment\, and corporate tax evasion until we outlaw legalized corporate bribery of our politicians.” \nDonna the Buffalo is Jeb Puryear (vocals\, electric guitar) and Tara Nevins (vocals\, guitar\, fiddle\, accordion\, scrubboard) joined by David McCracken (Hammond organ\, Honer Clavinet & piano)\, Kyle Spark (bass) and Mark Raudabaugh (drums). “It’s been really fun with this lineup\,” Puryear says. “You get to the point where you’re playing on a really high level\, things are clicking and it’s like turning on the key to a really good car. It just goes.” \n“You have to do just what you want to do\, and everyone likes different things\,” Nevins says. “Both Jeb and I come from this background of old-time fiddle music\, which is very natural\, very real\, very under-produced\, and all about coming from the gut—flying by the seat of your pants. So we have that in us\, too.” \nAll Music Guide says their most recent album\, Tonight\, Tomorrow and Yesterday (2013 Sugar Hill Records)\, “highlights everything this consistent band does\, and it has a warm\, live-sounding production… This is what 21st century Americana sounds like\, a little bit of this and that from anywhere wrapped up into a poignant\, jamming dance reel\, a place where the past and history meet easily in the immediate now and everybody feels like dancing.” \nDonna the Buffalo drew it’s original inspiration from a cherished part of the American heritage: the old-time music festivals of the south that drew entire towns and counties together. Not only was it playing music at these events\, it was the vibe and the togetherness that bonded the people that attended. \n“Those festivals were so explosive\, and the community and the feeling of people being with each other\, that’s the feeling we were shooting for in our music\,” Puryear says. “Donna the Buffalo is an extension of the joy we’ve found.” \nThis type of bond is what Donna the Buffalo’s fans\, self-titled The Herd\, connect to and why they travel around to see them at shows and festivals throughout the year\, including a family of GrassRoots Festivals that DtB started and is still the driving force behind. \n“It’s a great feeling to promote such a feeling of community\, like you’re really part of something that’s happening\, like a movement or a positive force…” Nevins says\, “All those people that come and follow you and you recognize them and you become friends with them — you’re all moving along for the same purpose. It is powerful. It’s very powerful\, actually.”

SUMMARY:The Hangover Ball - Yacht Rock Revue plays The Beatles
DESCRIPTION:General Admission seating reserved on a first-come\, first-serve basis. Limited table reservations are available (beginning at 8pm) at the “reservations” tab at www.venkmans.com. Standing room remains once all seating is occupied. Purchasing a General Admission ticket does not guarantee you a seat unless you have made a table reservation after 8pm. \nYou’re Welcome!  The Yacht Rock Revue™ is the Greatest Show on Surf and the finest tribute to ’70s light rock to ever perform anywhere.  Ever.  Their spot-on renditions of Hall & Oates\, Michael McDonald\, Steely Dan\, and the rest of the Time-Life Infomercial Catalog have enthralled fans across the United States.  It goes without saying they have taken their act to the high seas\, performing showcase sets on music cruises with Weezer\, Kid Rock\, Train\, Zac Brown Band\, Sister Hazel\, and fitness guru Jillian Michaels. \nThe band has won accolades ranging from “Best Place to Get Drunk With Your Dad” to “Best Overall Music Act in Atlanta” to “Best Place to Start an Extramarital Affair\,” and has been name-dropped by the New York Times\, Pitchfork\, the Guardian UK\, Spin\, TimeOut New York\, Billboard\, MTV.com\, and (probably) your mom at her last cocktail party. \nSpeaking of name-dropping\, members of the band have played on-stage with members of Weezer\, Billy Joel\, Walter Egan\, .38 Special\, John Mayer\, Zac Brown Band\, Little River Band\, Sheryl Crow\, Noel Gallagher\, Starbuck\, Sarah McLachlan\, Don Henley\, Lynyrd Skynyrd\, Neil Finn\, Jellyfish\, Devo\, Nine Inch Nails\, Joan Jett\, Wet Willie\, Bon Jovi\, Skid Row\, and the Saturday Night Live Band.  (None of those were a joke.)  \nThe Yacht Rock Revue™ has packed out shows at historic venues including the Variety Playhouse in Atlanta\, the Knitting Factory in New York City\, Athens’ famed Georgia Theatre\, Washington DC’s State Theatre\, and Nashville’s Mercy Lounge. They played at the finish line of the Peachtree Road Race for 50\,000+ two years running; played on Turner Field for 30\,000 fans on July 4; and sang the National Anthem at Braves Manager Bobby Cox’s last game. \nThe Yacht Rock Revue™ goes beyond the smooth to perform under many aliases:  Please PleaseRock Me (Beatles)\, Reagan Rock (Smooth ’80s) Uno Dos Tres Catorce (U2)\, Dazed and Confused (’70s Stoner Rock)\, Rock Fight (Led Zeppelin vs. the Who\, Tom Petty vs. Fleetwood Mac\, etc.) and so forth. \nYacht Rock Revue™ also performs many classic albums in their entirety\, including Michael Jackson’s Thriller\, Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon\, Prince’s Purple Rain\, the Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band\, XTC’s Black Sea\, and Led Zeppelin IV.
