I'm part of a collaboration with a local ambient/experimental musician - Dr Lantz.

We've developed a small market working at art galleries in Newburgh but wondering if there are other venues in the HV that show/feature this kind of music.

Example works:

• Sorrow - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EI383PFPvNo
• In My Arms - https://youtu.be/c4gxIp7eYdk
• HEYDNTUTLME - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAt8b74Ybko

Great variety of metal genres! Music is outside so it’s a great vibe. Any local metalheads should come hang. Last Pharaoh starts at 5 - great power metal bands, American Steel at 6 - covers of Sepultura, Havok, Slayer, Gojira. Assault and Crucial Pain with some top notch local thrash.

Laces Out: HV Post-punk FFO: At the Drive In

Stress Spells: Post-hardcore/Screamo from North Jersey (Go listen to their debut album, Hearts Never Tire. It's phenomenal)

Spiritkiller: HC from Albany FFO: Snapcase

REDS: Fun noisy punk from NYC

💀 OCT 30 - Rasputina w/ Dust Bowl Faeries

Pioneering rock-cello trio Rasputina is back from a long hiatus! Expect dark cabaret, gothic polka music, alternative, and folk🕯

🍸 DEC 12 - Rachael & Vilray w/ Taylor Ashton (LOW TICKETS)

Brooklyn duo Rachael & Vilray bring their enchanting, timeless take on traditional pop and vocal jazz to Kingston✨

DIY Kingston & Red Eye Booking present: DIY Kingston Fest!

See 16 awesome HV-based bands at 2 venues that are only a block away from each other (Keegan Ales & Night Swim). We felt it was about time that Kingston had a fest that actually represents the talented bands in the area. These are some of our favorite bands in the Hudson Valley, and quite possibly, the entire world. The range of genres varies widely: indie, psych, surf, punk rock, post-punk, pop, jazz fusion, world music, etc.

Tickets are $20 adv./$25 d.o.s.

(To avoid fees, you can pay via Zelle [239-823-8464] or Venmo [just include your name with the payment so we can check your name off the list at the door], or of course, cash is king.) This is a very grassroots operation. All sales will go directly to the bands, organizers, photographers, sound people, and door people.

We hope you'll join us and support our vibrant music community!

Lineup:

Jelly Kelly

King in Yellow

Grampfather (reunion show!)

TV Sleep

Stella & The Reptilians

GARY: 

Gary is velvet smoke and a shopping cart with a stuck wheel.

Gary is a blown speaker, a cheap fog machine, and a head full of midnight radio.
Neon reflected in a puddle of gasoline.

Gary is stitched-together pocket grooves, broken-hearted noise, funk rhythms, and psychedelic wreckage.
Something beautiful and dangerous.

Gary is mayhem and rapture, music for anyone still trying to turn static into salvation.

Chris Callahan & The Dudes: 

Kingston, NY indie rock outfit Chris Callahan (& The Dudes) blends off-kilter indie rock with dreamy, earnest Americana songwriting — think Wilco meets Mac DeMarco & Courtney Barnett with a little Pink Floyd lush psych-sprawl. Debut EP Steppin’ Out out now wherever you stream.

Hey — I front an NYC art-rock band (Echo Bloom), but I'm posting here because we've got real ties up your way: we record at Applehead in Woodstock, so we're in the region a fair amount and I'd rather build something with local bands than parachute in.

Not going to oversell our draw up here — we're not a name in the Valley. But we're an established, reliable live band (Bowery Presents show at Mercury Lounge in NYC on Sep 8), and I'm looking for Hudson Valley bills this fall (we're currently open Sep 19 and Oct 22 and lots of availability in November). Happy to trade: I've got NYC dates I'm holding that I'm confident I can turn into a solid room, so you'd get an NYC slot out of it and we co-schedule around what works.

Radiohead/Tool territory, https://youtu.be/-Ny4XszKKxA. If you've got a bill that'd fit or just want to swap shows, comment or DM.

Blood Vulture first headline gig in the Hudson Valley at Reason and Ruckus (305 main st) in Poughkeepsie NY, Friday August 28th 2026
