SUMMARY:SIRSY\; special guest Route One
DESCRIPTION:SIRSY is a rock and soul duo with lots of pop sensibility and j
 ust the right amount of sass. The Boston Globe sums it up\, “Little band
 . Big Sound.” Although the only thing “little” about Sirsy is that t
 here’s just two of them. The rest is bigger than a T-Rex. Close your eye
 s and listen to the power and heart in their music and you’ll swear ther
 e’s more than two people on stage. It’s crank up the volume\, sing alo
 ng at the top of your lungs music — even when the ballads kick in. Plus\
 , “Their clever\, smart songs have more hooks than a tacklebox.” (Time
 s Union).\n\nSIRSY is fronted by powerhouse vocalist Melanie (Mel) Krahmer
 \, who is described as “one of the most powerful &amp\; flexible voices 
 you’ll ever hear.” (Times Union). Aftertaste Magazine said\, “Bursti
 ng and belting out emotion and substance\, she can be the queen of ‘in t
 he groove’ rocking or be simple and delicate.” Still\, there is more t
 o Mel than her soul-inspired vocals: she also plays a full drum kit while 
 standing up (she’s been featured in Modern Drummer Magazine and is offic
 ially endorsed by Paiste Cymbals and Vater Percussion). At their live show
 s\, Mel also plays bass parts with a drum stick (on a keyboard mounted on 
 her drums). She even throws in an occasional flute solo\, too.\n\nGuitaris
 t Rich Libutti plays a well-loved and road-worn Rickenbacker through a ped
 al board full of vintage effects. “The guitar player is flawless and raw
 . Clean enough to be enjoyed\, and just edgy enough to make you grin.” (
 SXSW Music Blog\, Austin TX). Live\, Rich also plays bass on a keyboard wi
 th his feet.\n\nOfficial website  – Facebook  – Youtube – Twitter 
 – Instagram\n\nRoute One (Mikal Federici &amp\; Anna Savchuk) is a singe
 r/songwriter duo formed in 2024\, in Asheville\, North Carolina. Following
  the aftermath of Hurricane Helene\, the pair moved north\, resettling in 
 Warwick\, N.Y. With scores of clever and catchy original music\, as well a
 s a handful of complimentary covers\, Route One touches on notes of folk\,
  pop\, rock and blues\, combining the standard musical forms into a packag
 e that is all their own. Between sweet\, mellifluous harmonies\, shadowy m
 inor-key pieces\, or charging rock progressions\, Route One explores the r
 ange of the American musical idiom\, with lyrical content that does just t
 he same. The clean\, unburdened two-piece arrangement between Federici &am
 p\; Savchuk gives listeners a chance to connect with both the duo and the 
 songs they deliver\, making for intimate performances audiences are sure t
 o remember.\n\nTickets $25 advance\, $30 door\n\nALL SALES ARE FINAL\n\nDI
