In existence for more than 30 years, the Oswego Music Hall offers mostly acoustical musicians every other Saturday night from September to June. On concert evenings, a large empty hall is transformed into an intimate venue replete with candlelit tables, professional staging and sound; as well as an array of freshly baked desserts, hot cider and freshly brewed coffee.
This week, the Burns & Kristy Band take the stage. This quartet is described as "Indie-folky-pop with a spiritual, whimsical attitude" and features Terry Burns, Ron Kristy, Rich DePaolo and Doug Robinson. Burns and Kristy met in Nashville, after many years as independent musicians and singer/songwriters. Married in 2004, they returned to Ithaca where they launched their debut CD in 2012 to rave reviews. The single "Blue Paper Boat" from that CD was a Top 3 Finalist in the International Acoustic Music Awards.
DePaolo has been a prominent figure in Ithaca's music scene for many years and in many genres. Robinson as well, and tours frequently in Europe and Canada with the Burns Sisters Band, British guitar virtuoso, Martin Simpson and others, performing ragtime, Latin, blues, gypsy-swing and jazz.
