Samuel Boat is the moniker of Hudson Valley based multi-instrumentalist Sam Lisabeth-- long time member of art rock/synth pop band Guerilla Toss.

Kofi has been drumming and performing internationally for over 30 years. He directs the African drum and dance ensemble Sankofa. He uses African culture in assemblies, lectures, performances, drum circles and traditional African Ananse (spider) stories to promote diversity in all cultures: in schools, communities, conferences as well as festivals.

Percussionist Juma Sultan shot to international fame when he stepped onto the stage of the 1969 Woodstock Festival as a member of Jimi Hendrix’s Gypsy Sun & Rainbows. In the Market Sheds, he will be presenting his nine-piece group, Aboriginal Music Society in an exploration of spirit grounded in sound.

CREATURES is a bari-sax-driven power trio, playing music for and about the creatures of this world. Stefan Zeniuk (Gato Loco, etc), Todd Perlmutter, and Dave Steele (both of Blue Man Group/Orangutan) rock hard, even when it's weird.
