Popa Chubby Band Record Release Party at The Falcon
Dig out your bluesy soul and dust off your rock ‘n’ roll boots—Popa Chubby Band is hitting the stage for an electrifying record release party spanning musical genres from blues to punk. The shindig will unfold on Fri. Sep 8, 2023, at The Falcon in Marlboro. Food service starts from 5:30-9pm, while the music revs up at 7:30pm. Ticket prices are available upon inquiry at the venue.
Ted Horowitz, professionally known as Popa Chubby, has been wielding his guitar in the blues scene for more than three decades, blending influences that range from Motörhead to Muddy Waters. With his iconic look—shaven head, tattooed arms, and goatee—Horowitz is a memorable figure in contemporary blues. His genre-fusing style draws from an eclectic musical heritage that includes punk influences from his early career in New York City, giving his music a uniquely rebellious undertone.
Over the years, Horowitz has navigated the labyrinthine music industry with resilience, continuously evolving his creative craft and expanding his international fan base. From his origins in the NYC punk milieu—playing guitar for a theatrical Japanese special effects artist named Screaming Mad George—to sharing stages at iconic venues like CBGB with legendary bands such as the Ramones and the Cramps, Horowitz’s journey underscores his belief that rock ‘n’ roll should pack a subversive punch.
This maverick musician sees the blues as the bedrock of his musical journey, recalling how legends like Howlin’ Wolf and Muddy Waters were not just virtuosos but “dangerous men.” This element of risk and rebellion infuses Horowitz’s interpretation of the blues, ensuring that it retains its edgy, visceral character.
In a world teetering on the brink of various challenges, Horowitz finds himself drawing inspiration from the larger social landscape. “The world is undergoing a seismic shift. The boundaries are getting redrawn,” he remarks. Amidst all this, he believes music serves as a collective refuge.

Dance Nation at The Center for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck
Ready to take a “step” into the tumultuous world of pre-teen dance competitions and ambition? Dance Nation, Clare Barron’s lauded dramatic comedy, pirouettes into questions of rivalry, identity, and the precipice of adulthood with unrelenting vigor. This provocative piece, a 2019 Pulitzer Prize finalist in Drama, stages a vivid tableau where the aspirations and complexities of young competitive dancers serve as a metaphor for the turbulent journey toward maturity.
At the heart of the narrative is a cadre of pre-teen girls navigating multifaceted questions: Who is the best among them? What does it mean to gain recognition? How can one be a friend and a competitor simultaneously? And how does one assert oneself in an environment that often suppresses individuality? The characters are fleshed out by actors ranging in age from their 20s to 30s, embodying the “ghosts” of their younger selves, according to co-director Joey Taylor.
Staging the production is Definitely Human Theatre Collective, a fledgling theatrical group hailing from Poughkeepsie, committed to delivering avant-garde theater to the Hudson Valley. Vanessa Baer, a founding member and co-director of Dance Nation, says that the play’s “unapologetic ferocity” and formal innovation resonate with the collective’s own artistic ethos.
An ensemble cast featuring Patrick Dougherty, Emily McCarthy, Camilla Motolinia, Connie Lee, Michael Friary, Mia DeYoung, Madison Cannella, Tori Lopez, and Hanna Hertzler will bring to life this multifaceted narrative.
The show is set to dazzle audiences this week from Sep. 8-10, with additional shows next week, Sep. 15-17 at The Center for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck. Fri. and Sat. performances will start at 8pm, while Sun. shows will take place at 3pm. Tickets retail for $25 and can be procured at centerforperformingarts.org.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor at Basilica Hudson
The cavernous Basilica Hudson may still be too small to hold the expansive sound of post-rock icons Godspeed You! Black Emperor, who paint a sonic landscape so epic and vast it’s hard not to get lost inside. The band is legendary for its lengthy dynamic buildups that take minutes to journey from soft twinking guitars and subtle rhythms to walls of distorted heaviness with pummeling and percussion. And despite being an instrumental act, they have codified an image of opposition to post-capitalist malaise and chaos, offering a meditation on resistance.
The show will feature an “opening invocation” by Hudson Valley’s eccentric soundsmith Zannie, followed by spoken word performances by Hanif Abdurraqib and Shanekia McIntosh. Audiofemme will DJ the afterparty in the West Wing Bar and jazz collection Irreversible Entanglements will also play a special set before the headliners take the stage.
The multimedia experience includes art by Niagara Detroit, a record-lover’s pop-up by John Doe Records, the Sacred Bones Curio Shop, books from Better Read than Dead, and food by Local 111. Not for nothing, the whole thing was curated by rock royalty Brandon Stosuy and Melissa Auf der Maur, the former a writer who had a stint editing at Pitchfork and now publishes the lo-fit alt-journalism resource for creators named The Creative Independent, the latter having played in Hole and Smashing Pumpkins, with incredible solo music of her own.
This density of amazing, creative people is rare, which is why if any of this sounds remotely appealing to you, we suggest dropping everything and getting tickets – $50 in advance, $60 day of. The mini-festival kicks off at 5pm, and is restricted to 18 and up. Get tickets and info at basilicahudson.org.

Mystery at the Art Colony at Byrdcliffe
Picture this: The year is 1902 and you’re sharing dinner conversations with Ralph Whitehead and his spouse Jane Byrd McCall, discussing business ventures with hotelier Elizabeth Reynolds, and getting lost in an academic debate with college professor Percy Longfellow. Suddenly, the reverie turns revolting: A murder has taken place, and the killer is still at large.
“Mystery at the Art Colony” promises not just historical camaraderie but a riveting whodunit to solve. The fundraiser event, masterminded by Theatre on the Road and written and directed by Anika Krempl, takes place at the Mescal Hornbeck Community Center this Sat., Sep. 9 at 7:00 pm and Sun., Sep 10 at 5:00 pm. Ticket prices are set at $18 in advance and $20 on the day of the spectacle. Light refreshments can also be acquired for a modest charge. Proceeds will go to the Historical Society of Woodstock, and tickets are purchasable via their website, historicalsocietyofwoodstock.org.
Showrunner Anika Krempl’s distinctive brand of historical fiction combines elements of drama, comedy, and mystery, steeped in historical accuracy yet creatively woven to engage modern audiences. Although the narrative includes four figures based on real-life personalities, none are implicated as culprits in the unfolding murder mystery. Krempl, no stranger to sold-out performances in the Hudson Valley since 2015, has once again composed a compelling piece teeming with both fact and fiction.
The cast includes Frank Marquette, owner-operator of Theatre on the Road, Erica Woolley, Nicole Prepeluk, Tom Roberts, Lauren Roberts, Ken Stallon, and Jim Keenen. Providing an auditory tapestry that complements the narrative, Hannah Tufano will deliver live period music, enhancing the atmosphere of historicity.
In operation for a quarter of a century, Theatre on the Road is an enterprise helmed by Frank and Kirsten Marquette, based in Rosendale, New York. For those inclined to explore more of their productions or seek further information, the company’s website is theatreontheroad.com.

Spirit of the Beehive at Tubby’s
What is “collage rock?” Beck’s cut-and-paste pop would probably be the best-recognized landmark for the genre – don’t be surprised to find a sample from an obscure Japanese talk show pop up next to a hammer dulcimer, detuned string section, distorted synth arpeggios and vocals that shapeshift genres at the drop of a hat.
Philadelphia’s Spirit of the Beehive takes this cacophonous foundation and jumps far into the deep end while still managing to be infectiously catchy. Their latest EP, i’m so lucky, bursts and blooms with inspired and immaculate atmospheric production. You’re enveloped in a psychedelic soundscape that’s constantly changing, but with a rhythmic and melodic backbone that keeps you grounded. Lo-fi pop, shoegazing indie rock, crusty stoner heaviness, hip-hop-esque sampling, trippy darkwave flourishes… let’s just say you’re not going to get bored with this band anytime soon.
You ought to know by now that Tubby’s is the cutting edge of music in our area, with their fingers on the pulse of more rising musical stars than you can shake an SM-58 at. This show is another big notch on their belt, and without question the coolest thing to happen on a Tuesday night in recent memory. Tickets and info at tubbyskingston.com
