Madam West + Chuck Burns Band + COOKIE CUTTA & THE CRISPS @ The Way Station

8pm- Madam West
Genre: Electro-Soul, Pop

Madam West is an NYC-based experimental soul-pop band. The group started as a duo in the mildewed recesses of a Bushwick cellar not too different from your own (residential zoning laws aside). What started as a weekly cover session and recording project blossomed into a folk-soul-pop fusion group that continues to entertain, engage, and sometimes baffle. The group has been favorably reviewed in Stereo/Pirate, UK’s Songwriting Magazine, and featured on CFUV (Canadian college radio), along with various internet radio stations.The band played its first international show in Montreal in July and continues to book shows in the NYC-metropolitan area. Madam West is currently comprised of three vocalists, one keyboard player/engineer, one drummer, one guitarist and more electronics than the band has hands.

9pm- Chuck Burns Band
Genre: Rock, Roots, Blues, Folk
For fans of: Tom Waits, Tallest Man on Earth, Alman Brothers, Jefferey Lewis

Chuck Burns Band combines a singer-songwriter’s folk roots with Nashville rowdiness, psychedelic rock, and soul. The resulting sounds pulls the listener in with howling vocals and captivates with rich, textured melodies, and anthemic break-downs that will make you dance. The name began as an alter-ego during long distance hitchhiking trips, and the songs that were born on the side of the road capture the hope and defeat of each passing car. Recently returning from a tour of the United States and much of Europe, Chuck Burns is back in New York City with a full ensemble featuring pedal steel guitar, and a full horn section.

10pm- COOKIE CUTTA & THE CRISPS
