Behind The Board – A Great New Change To NEXT Charity Concert Series

We are really excited by the change of venue to the NEXT Charity Concert Series! REALLY!!! When is the last time you got to hold a monthly party/concert at a brewery? Yep..unless you own one yourself, NEVER!!! But that is the new change to the already awesome NEXT Charity Concert Series. We’re moving to the Captain Lawrence Brewery! While the weather is good and warm, we’ll be outside celebrating music and charity! And when the weather begins to become cold we’ll head inside.

Chris Bro of NEXT has begun putting together a stellar line-up and chose an incredible way to start off at the new venue:

8/23 Black Taxi

9/21 My Pet Dragon

Black Taxi is well known to our area and if  you’ve attended the NEXT Charity Concert Series with any regularity then you’ve heard/seen them a few times. My Pet Dragon put on an incredible set at Paulie’s for NEXT earlier this year, but if you have been attending the Alive @ Five in Stamford, CT then you saw them put on a stellar performance that had Columbus Park dancing away!

We’re especially excited for this show as we get to really use our sound systems. Most of you have heard the awesomeness of the BNK sound rig, but not all of you have heard the outdoor rig! (PCTV we did not use the outdoor format although it was outside).

So mark it on your calendars to be at the Captain Lawrence Brewery 444 Saw Mill River Road in Elmsford, NY (so easy to get to!) and join us for the NEXT Charity Concert Series!!!

 

Behind The Board – Reflecting On May (Live EP With Allthingsnext.com)

 

In May, as previously mentioned, we had the chance to work with an upcoming band known as In Like Lions out of Boston.  These guys have a sonically layered sound which hints at some of the 90’s rockers like Staind,  or Pearl Jam with a hint of U2. Vocalist Troy has a smooth vocal technique with power and projection. For BNK it wasn’t a tough show to work as these guys were very professional, soundcheck went easy and it resulted in little adjustment needed.  Give a listen at NEXT Music’s site

Behind The Board – March Live EP Released

Back in March we worked with the band Burlap to Cashmere during the NEXT Charity Concert Series. Burlap to Cashmere is a folk pop band with a refined sound. They’re very reminiscent of Simon and Garfunkel. Though you might say they’re a little more musical for most normal folk music. The production side was rather simple. Just keep it clean so it can be heard. On the recording, it was the same theory.

Give it a listen and enjoy!
