Jimmy Cavallo

Jimmy Cavallo sings the blues

After missing yesterday’s show due to travel, Jimmy Cavallo said maybe this won’t be his last performance at the Italian Festival.  Essentially he didn’t rule out a comeback.  What he did do however, during his two-hour make-up performance, was shake, rattle and roar on the Washington Street stage. He also shared the stage with local musicians Joe Carello and Nancy Kelly.

Just in case you missed him, you have one more chance to catch Jimmy in the area because he plays the Polish American Club tomorrow.

Songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist Stephen Wise seems to have made a real connection with the fans here in Syracuse. He made a return last night to play a show at Munjed’s. He played flute, alto and soprano sax, sang, and even gave a short clinic on circular breathing and the didgeridoo. Wise told the crowd that he will soon be leaving his base in Philadelphia for new horizons in Jamaica.
