Mike Gridley (aka “Griz”) leads the group\, playing mandolin\, banjo and providing lead vocals. He is joined by Marc Odin on guitar and his longtime musical accomplice Steve Buck on bass and vocals. Mike Lounsbery adds harmonica\, percussion and vocals\, West Coast resident Taylor Bucci provides drums and vocals (when schedule permits)\, and Scott Wilson rounds out the group on dobro.“The band came together from campfire jam sessions and impromptu open-mic appearances\,” said Gridley. “We were all looking for the opportunity to play songs we love and to do something a little different from other bands that we played in.”Since the group’s inception in 2012\, they have been a growing presence on the local CNY scene. Highlights have been their performances at several local music festivals\, including the Casual Dog Fest\, The Tipp Hill Music Festival\, The Bacon & Bourbon Fest\, and The Crick Hill Music Fest.“The beauty of an acoustic band is that we can play anything from a small room\, completely unplugged\, to a large festival stage\, and the music still comes through with the same impact. And our main objective is to provide a good time and a fun atmosphere for the band and the audience\, and the more intimate nature of this music is perfect for achieving that\,” said Gridley. The group plays in various configurations\, ranging from just two to all six members.The Bog Brothers play wide range of roots\, folk and Americana based music\, drawing heavily from the music of the Grateful Dead and similar artists\, frequently mining deep tracks that music lovers will appreciate. The sound of string band instruments such as Gridley’s mandolin and banjo and Wilson’s dobro blended with three-part harmony vocals are reminiscent of traditional music styles\, but the group also infuses all their music with a modern energy and pulse\, driven by Buck’s bass and Odin’s guitar.The group also has a growing repertoire of original music\, delivered in the Bogs fun-loving style. “We try to never lose that spirit of playing around the campfire that we started out with. If everyone isn’t having fun\, then something’s wrong.” \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest\n \n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n Like this:Like Loading...\n\n Related URL:https://cnyalive.com/calendar/the-bog-brothers-5/ LOCATION:Funk n Waffles – Downtown Syracuse\, 313 South Clinton Street\, Syracuse\, NY\, 13210\, United States CATEGORIES:Bar Gig,Live Music,Tribute GEO:43.0483626;-76.1534216 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Funk n Waffles – Downtown Syracuse 313 South Clinton Street Syracuse NY 13210 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=313 South Clinton Street:geo:-76.1534216,43.0483626 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250504T203000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250504T233000 DTSTAMP:20260502T171900 CREATED:20250430T150505Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250430T150505Z UID:10019505-1746390600-1746401400@cnyalive.com SUMMARY:Open Mic w/ Pat Tato DESCRIPTION:Share this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest\n \n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n Like this:Like Loading...\n\n Related URL:https://cnyalive.com/calendar/open-mic-w-pat-tato-25/ LOCATION:Funk n Waffles – Downtown Syracuse\, 313 South Clinton Street\, Syracuse\, NY\, 13210\, United States CATEGORIES:Bar Gig,Live Music,Music Event,Open Mic Night GEO:43.0483626;-76.1534216 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Funk n Waffles – Downtown Syracuse 313 South Clinton Street Syracuse NY 13210 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=313 South Clinton Street:geo:-76.1534216,43.0483626 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250504T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250504T200000 DTSTAMP:20260502T171900 CREATED:20250430T150353Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250430T150353Z UID:10019504-1746381600-1746388800@cnyalive.com SUMMARY:Bella Wendel and the Red Flags DESCRIPTION:Bella Wendel and the Red Flags bring a fresh\, electrifying blend of pop and alternative to every stage.

Years ago\, her journey as a recording artist began with her debut EP Between Stars. Six singles\, two albums\, and countless performances later\, Sarah has solidified herself as a staple of Syracuse University’s music scene and a rising voice in Americana. This year\, Sarah released her third album\, The Riversides\, conveying the nostalgic and emotive nature of water introspectively and in her relationships through a warm\, folk driven sound. Since its release\, Sarah has seen unprecedented support for her music\, opening for artists\, Sammy Rae and Lawrence\, with an ever-growing following of 13.2k on TikTok and the support of fellow rising singer-songwriters.\n/////\nThe Belle Curves is the primary creative vehicle for Troy-based songwriter Delaney Hafener. A typical multi-hyphenate musician\, she has an atypical relationship to fame – she doesn’t want it. She doesn’t need it\, and she’s not pursuing it. Delaney seeks authenticity\, joy\, and community through music-making. A stable yet changeable crew of musicians and creatives bring Delaney’s visions to life in the studio and on stage. Delaney takes an intentional\, Brian-Wilson-esque approach to making recordings and pairs it with an irreverent\, raw\, yet tight live show. Precise vocal harmonies\, distorted electric guitar\, a groovy rhythm section\, and a slightly sardonic sensibility carry Hafener’s clever and melodic songwriting. Delaney draws from a deep well of American music. Traditional folk ballads\, jangly power-pop\, and rollicking alt-country all make themselves at home in the sound of The Belle Curves. Seeing The Belle Curves live can mean anything from Delaney performing solo with some vintage guitar in her hands to her fronting a 6-piece band and making the unique claim of being both frontwoman and bass player.\nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest\n \n Email a link

The quartet—Michael Rubin [vocals\, lead guitar]\, Joe Conserva [bass]\, Justin Kosisky [guitar]\, and Dipayan “Dip” Chakraborty [drums]—boldly break boundaries both in the studio and on stage. Piling up millions of streams and earning acclaim from Guitar World\, mxdwn\, and more\, the musicians sharpen a scorching signature style on a series of 2024 singles and their forthcoming second full-length album for Mascot Label Group.“It was important to really establish a sound of our own\,” observes Michael. “It’s alt rock\, but there’s an emphasis on real musicianship. We’re a tight band\, first and foremost. You’re getting hard guitar and really honest lyrics. This isn’t a reinvention\, but it’s more of an evolusion.”Growing up in Queens\, a handful of formative experiences magntically pulled Michael to music. At nine- years-old\, his old man turned off the all of lights and played Pink Floyd’s The Wall in its entirety for his son. “It’s probably spooky for a kid\, but the guitar tones spoke to me and I became such a huge David Gilmour fan\,” he recalls with laugh. Not long after\, dad urged Michael to “put down the Guitar Hero and try the real thing\,” buying him a guitar for his tenth birthday.“It was the beginning of the rest of my life\,” he grins. “It’s like my personality was downloaded from this wooden thing!”In between spending hours with a guitar in-hand\, he obsessed over classic records by Steely Dan and Led Zeppelin in addition to Tame Impala’s Currents. He attended School of Rock for years and eventually founded his first project Inoculated Canaries\, stirring up local buzz\, touring\, and landing on radio airwaves. Progressing as a singer and guitarist\, he officially launched King Falcon in 2020. Blown away by demos\, Mascot signed the King Falcon in the middle of the Global Pandemic without even mee=ng them in-person or seeing them live. The group’s self-titled debut\, King Falcon\, arrived during 2023. It racked up north of 2 million streams on Spotify fueled by “Ready Set Go\,” “Cadillac\,” and “Everybody’s Down.” Inciting unanimous critical applause\, mxdwn hailed them as “Best New Artist 2023\,” and Guitar World christened them “one of NYC’s most excitng indie-rock bands.” Meanwhile\, they packed houses at headline gigs in addition to performing alongside everyone from Des Roc to Sublime With Rome.In 2024\, King Falcon hunkered down and turned the page on their next chapter. This time around\, the guys decamped to Indiana in order to record some new material. In the sessions\, Michael made a conscious decision to open up more than ever before.”\n““I went through a really rough breakup\,” he admits. “We were together for six years\, and I was going to marry her. It’s life though\, and everything happens for a reason. When it ended\, I started writing and couldn’t stop. As painful as it was\, the songs were worth it.”Showcasing their progression\, King Falcon ignite an incendiary cover of Paramore’s “crushcrushcrush” to kickstart this chapter. For as much as it pays homage to the original\, the players infuse their own fresh fire embodied by Michael’s hypnotic delivery and a fret-burning solo.“I’ve always been a Paramore fan\,” he says. “‘crushcrushcrush’ has so many great melodies. I was jamming on it\, and I had the idea for the lead in the middle. The energy is a bit different. We’ve got some guitar showboating\, because that’s my thing\,” he chuckles.“When you listen to us\, I want you to be in our universe for a little while\,” he leaves off. “After it’s over\, you go back to your regular life perhaps refreshed. We’re getting more introspective and personal. I’d love for you to listen to King Falcon and be in this space.”\n\n/////\nMJT IS A MUSICAL FORCE OF NATURE AND LONG-TIME FIXTURE OF LONG ISLAND’S LIVE MUSIC SCENE.

In fact\, you could say that Blake is the music and the music is Blake; that’s how deeply he inhabits the songs he writes and plays. You can hear him struggling with his feelings\, whether it’s on a skittering country shuffle or on a mid-tempo folk ballad or a straight-ahead rocker. His restless search for the chords and lyrics over the past 20 years has produced a plethora of memorable music\, and since 2007 he’s led Yarn\, a band that’s evolved from its earliest days as a bar band in New York City to an outstanding roots band that’s shared stages with Dwight Yoakam\, Marty Stuart\, Alison Krauss\, and Leftover Salmon\, among many others. \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest\n \n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n Like this:Like Loading...\n\n Related URL:https://cnyalive.com/calendar/yarn/ LOCATION:Funk n Waffles – Downtown Syracuse\, 313 South Clinton Street\, Syracuse\, NY\, 13210\, United States CATEGORIES:Bar Gig,Events,Live Music,Music Event GEO:43.0483626;-76.1534216 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Funk n Waffles – Downtown Syracuse 313 South Clinton Street Syracuse NY 13210 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=313 South Clinton Street:geo:-76.1534216,43.0483626 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
