Did You Miss the Debut of "For What It's Worth" the new Buffalo Springfield tribute band in March?

Yep, on the same night that we hosted Daylight Again, the Crosby Stills Nash tribute, they reformulated, re-mixed and transformed themselves into the Buffalo Springfield as a tribute. Here are a couple of clips from that night in March!


Remember that there are surprises back here now from Thursday to Sunday nights, and sometimes more!

John Jorgenson came for a Matinee

Yep he and his band came to little old Altadena to play for us in a matinee. For an encore, he and his band unplugged and performed this wonderful little bit. Yes, at The Coffee Gallery in Altadena. John Jorgenson comes from afar to wow this little corner of the LA basin.

Berkley Hart Came In July

We are always lucky when Berkley Hart comes to perform for us. Their great songwriting and harmonious singing are always gorgeous. Here they perform the lovely "I Want To Love You To The Bone"

Boy, We have had some Fun!

Just one example of an act that will also be coming again in October is Teresa Tudury. Here is a clip of one of her songs:

June Brought some great performances to The Coffee Gallery Backstage

For example, on June 29th, The Swinging Armani Brothers really swang.

Here is a video of some of the fun. Pay attention to the dancing at the end. And you probably missed it.




And then, there was Joe Craven, who performed a historic candle light show, since the power went out just a little before the show began.



And just think - there was a show almost EVERY NIGHT all month long.

May Brought a number of A Capella Acts to The Coffee Gallery Backstage

Well, as you might expect, The Coffee Gallery Backstage is more than any one kind of music, but this May brought a number of great A Capella Groups to the stage.

On 5/23/10, Down 4 The Count performed the theme from the Pink Panther like the following:



And They shared the bill with Pitch Please, seen here



And of course, later in the month. Grace garced us with their presence as follows:



Now just imagine what other fun things you missed.

The Pirates of the Black Swan were here on 4/30/10 and left behind their hostages

Yet another great night you might have missed at The Coffee Gallery Backstage. Captain Jack and his deadly crew came and went, but left behind this video record so you can enjoy the foolishness served up in April. There may be additional episodes.

Vicky Genfan came and conquered us on 3/5/10

If you want to see a hint of her artistry - just take a look. She arrived, she played, she left us behind.

March 2nd, Riders of The Purple Sage did Chili dinner show

This is an early example of The Coffee Gallery's new concept of dinner and a show. Select shows will come with dinner and an opening act. For this Tuesday, the dinner was Julie's fabulous chili, cornbread and salad. Opening act was Thorin, then Relaxin' Jackson did some mandolin magic before the Riders came and we were really swingin' then.

Here are some video clips of The Riders of the Purple Sage:
