One New Yearโs Eve, but so many great New Yearโs Eve gigs to choose from. Whatโs an upstate music fan to do? Hey, all I can do is plug the ones I can here. The rest is up to you. So hereโs another: everyoneโs local reggae faves the Big Takeover at Colony.
Formed in New Paltz in 2007 and fronted by the alluring NeeNee Rushie, the Big Takeover has taken their rocksteady stew of ska and roots reggae all around the continental U.S. and released their fourth album, Silly Girl, this year.
Hereโs the band stirring it up with โStay with Meโ at the 2015 Summer Hoot:
The Big Takeover and Los Thujones will perform at Colony in Woodstock, New York, on December 31 at 8pm. Tickets are $30 in advance and $40 day of show and include a champagne toast and midnight brunch. For more information, call (845) 679-7625 or visit http://www.colonywoodstock.com/.
