SUMMARY:Tony Monaco / Fareed Haque Trio
DESCRIPTION:The trio has headlined The Bluenote\, NYC\, Jazz at Lincoln Center\, NYC\, The Green Mill\, Chicago\, DazzleJazz Denver\, Colorado and many more. https://fareed.com/project/tony-monaco-fareed-haque-trio/ Fareed Haque has spent much of career defying expectations of what the jazz guitarist is supposed to do and sound like. Recently\, Haque has been tackling one of the most iconic and enduring contexts for his instrument\, collaborating with Hammond B-3 master Tony Monaco in a hard-hitting organ combo. Organist Tony Monaco from Columbus\, Ohio\, whose reserves of energy match the guitarist’s\, studied with greats Hank Marr and Don Patterson but his greasy\, rambunctious style owes serious debts to the great Jimmy Smith. His playing goes head-to-head with Joey DeFrancesco at his most extroverted. The Trio has headlined many festivals including The JavaJazzfest\, Detroit Jazz Fest\, Chicago Jazz Fest\, Columbus Jazz fest\, Lafayette Jazz fest\, Southbend JazzFest\, The Pritzger Pavillion in Millenium Park\, Chicago\, and many others. Club appearances include such legendary venues as The Bluenote\, NYC\, Jazz at Lincoln Center\, NYC\, The Greenmill\, Chicago\, DazzleJazz Denver\, Colorado and many many more. “Haque’s guitar in the opening\, title track heats up a groove as potent as any track recorded by Melvin Sparks\, Grant Greenor any other guitarist from the soul-jazz heydays of Prestige or Blue Note Records. Monaco’s original “Boogie Blue” kicks out even hotter and tastier jam: Haque’s rhythm hook stirs the funk up from the bottom and spreads it ’round the top while Monaco’s turn brings to mind a picture of Sun Ra reclining in a mellow mood behind his master keyboard console. “We’re trying to keep moving the tradition forward but yet keeping up with the times\,” Monaco explains. “So it has more of a modern-day funk rather than just swing.” All About Jazz “In the hands of Jimmy Smith\, the organ could sing. Here\, Monaco again proves that he too is the sort of high-caliber player who can coax such a response.” Downbeat Magazine “Haque’s guitar in the opening\, title track heats up a groove as potent as any track recorded by Melvin Sparks\, Grant Greenor any other guitarist from the soul-jazz heydays of Prestige or Blue Note Records.

SUMMARY:Keller Williams at Seven Acre Dairy
DESCRIPTION:Join musical virtuoso Keller Williams as he brings his infectious energy to the dairy for an awe-inspiring one man performance.\n\n\nDoors: 4PM. Show Starts: 5PM. \nTickets: $30 pre-sale. $35 day of \nAbout Keller Williams: Virginian\, Keller Williams\, released his first album in 1994\, FREEK\, and has since given each of his albums a single syllable title: BUZZ\, SPUN\, BREATHE\, LOOP\, LAUGH\, HOME\, DANCE\, STAGE\, GRASS\, DREAM\, TWELVE\, LIVE\, ODD\, THIEF\, KIDS\, BASS\, PICK\, FUNK\, VAPE\, SYNC\, RAW\, SANS\, ADD\, SPEED\, CELL\, DROLL and now DEER. Each title serves as a concise summation of the concept guiding each project.  \nKeller’s albums reflect his pursuit to create music that sounds like nothing else. Un-beholden to conventionalism\, he seamlessly crosses genre boundaries. The end product is music that encompasses rock\, jazz\, funk and bluegrass\, and always keeps the audience on their feet.  \nKeller built his reputation initially on his engaging live performances\, no two of which are ever alike. For most of his career he has performed solo. His stage shows are rooted around Keller singing his compositions and choice cover songs\, while accompanying himself on acoustic guitar\, bass\, guitar synthesizer and drum samples; a technique called live phrase sampling or“looping”.  \nThe end result often leans toward a hybrid of alternative folk and groovy electronica\, a genre Keller jokingly calls “acoustic dance music” or ADM.” Keller’s constant evolution has led to numerous band projects as well; Keller & The Keels\, Grateful Grass\, KWahtro\, Keller and the Travelin’ McCourys\, Grateful Gospel\, More Than A Little and most recently DeadPettyKellerGrass. You can even catch him from time to time going back to his troubadour roots with his “Shut the Folk Up and Listen” series.  \nKeller can be found playing clubs and festivals with these projects and his tried and true solo looping show\, always changing things up and keeping moving. \nwww.kellerwilliams.net

SUMMARY:Madtown Mannish Boys Gazebo Mussik
DESCRIPTION:Type: Free outdoor summer concert series Venue: Rotary Park Gazebo Address: 324 S. 6th St.\, Stoughton\, WI 53589 (~25 miles SE of Madison) Season: Thursdays\, late May through early September Hours: 6:00 – 7:30 PM CDT Admission: Free / no tickets required Parking: Street parking and Rotary Park lot; walkable from downtown Stoughton \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf Madison’s blues scene has a house band for its collective spirit\, it might just be the Madtown Mannish Boys\, one of our Local Blues Heros Bands. On summer evenings at places like the East Side Club\, their sound cuts through the air—harmonica wailing\, guitar lines snapping tight\, and rhythms that feel pulled straight from Chicago’s West Side. There’s nothing polished-for-show about it. It’s raw\, direct\, and built for the moment. Every set feels less like a recital and more like a revival—part jam session\, part celebration. They move easily between classic blues standards\, early R&B\, and vintage soul\, creating a sound that’s as much about feeling as it is about form. \n\n\n\nTheir performances are known for: \n\n\n\n\nHarmonica-driven leads that carry both grit and melody.\n\n\n\nDance-ready grooves that keep the crowd moving.\n\n\n\nSoulful\, unfiltered vocals that echo classic blues storytelling.\n\n\n\n\nhttps://madisonbluessociety.org/local-hero-spotlight-madtown-mannish-boys/ \n\n\n\nAbout the Venue\n\n\n\nGazebo Musikk is a beloved free community concert series that has run for many years in Stoughton’s Rotary Park\, organized by local volunteers and community members (historically with ties to Stoughton’s Norwegian-heritage church community — the name “Musikk” is a nod to the city’s strong Norwegian roots). It programs a wide range of local and regional acts — roots\, blues\, folk\, Americana\, jazz\, and world — making it a genuine community gathering point rather than a ticketed commercial venue. Bring a lawn chair or blanket; food and refreshments are typically available on site. \n\n\n\nThe same gazebo/park hosts the Catfish River Music Festival (annual\, July\, organized by the Stoughton Opera House Friends Association) which has featured confirmed blues acts.
