New York City Magic This Spring

Felix Cavaliere (The Rascals/Young Rascals) & Micky Dolenz have shows in Hawaii, Pennsylvania, Michigan this season. I’m pitching for his shows at the Patchogue Theater on Long Island (May 14) and Manhattan at the Palladium Times Square on June 3. He’s doing interviews for his new autobiography, “Memoir of A Rascal.” See more dates at www.felixcavalieremusic.com.


The Indie Collaborative features top indie artists that have won Grammys, charted, made the news, and get along with other musicians! Helmed by Emmy winning playwright Eileen Bluestone Sherman & Top 10 Folk Americana artist Grant Maloy Smith, this diverse group will present “Earth Day Celebration” on April 25 at the Weill Recital Hall in Carnegie Hall. Two artists: Ukranian-born classical pianist Sophia Agranovich and “MJ” actor/singer/dancer Ryan VanDenBoom. A number of performers (Sophia, plus jazz-blues/classical keyboardist Alan Storeygard, Celtic singer Helen O’Shea, children’s artist Amy Otey) have medical and health profession histories. www.indiecollaborative.com.


 

Coming to 450 PBS stations this April 26-May 24 (and then in the fall) is the Woodstock-created documentary “We Remember Songs From Survivors.” Find their publicist by checking out the “PBS Press Release” link by clicking below.
