Made with an A-list cast of New York session players, a number of whom are Woodstock-area residents, Chris Barron’s new record Angels and One-Armed Jugglers is a surprisingly broad and rangy chamber/roots effort, moving from the sophisticated jazz/blues of the title tracks through pretty folksongs and a variety of rockers that wouldn’t sound entirely out of place on a record by his former band, the Spin Doctors. Chris Barron performs at the Falcon in Marlboro on Friday, January 19. There is no cover charge at the Falcon, but donation is strongly encouraged.
