Join us for a fun & powerful evening of roots-infused rock and blues with Professor Louie & The Crowmatix, a Grammy-nominated band from Woodstock, NY. Hailed as “Roots Music Royalty” by Bill Hurley of Extended Play Sessions. With deep ties to The Band and a musical style that blends rock ‘n’ roll, gospel, blues, and folk, this Woodstock, NY powerhouse brings decades of experience and soul to every performance.
