Nightlife Highlights: Blues at Boscobel
by Peter Aaron, June 28, 2011
July 18. The roots action continues with Blues at Boscobel, a trad triple-header featuring Guy Davis, Christine Ohlman, and Rebel Montez, and John Platania on the glorious grounds of the titular estate. Davis, an award-nominated favorite, appears regularly on NPR’s “A Prairie Home Companion,” “Mountain Stage,” and “World Café”; the blond beehive-sporting Ohlman sang lead with the Saturday Night Live Band and has duetted with Dion and Levon Helm; and, in addition to being Van Morrison’s longtime guitarist, Red Hook resident Platania has worked with Bonnie Raitt, Randy Newman, and Don McLean. (The Big Band Sound brings the fireworks July 4; “Patriots vs. Loyalists”-themed site tours take place all month.) 5pm. $40. Garrison. (845) 265-3638;
