Throwback Thursday: The Classics
Thursday, December 24th, 2015If you appreciate the slick and polished R&B from back in the day, you’ll enjoy this 30-year old classic from Syracuse’s unsung duo of Skipworth and Turner. We are diggin’ the vocal range of Phil Turner on this cut.

The Sitrus on the Hill series continues to be a great place for musical experimentation and eclectic groups, all served with light fare from the lounge menu. On Friday The Djangoners brought their sound string strategies to town.
We don’t know who is on the roster to perform next month, but we hope CNY continues to take chances and maybe bring an a cappella group, reggae troupe, or even someone like former Yankee Bernie Williams to fill up this intimate venue.
