Murali Coryell is a triple threat contemporary blues artist who can sing, write and play guitar with the best in the business. As the son of guitar legend Larry Coryell, Murali grew up around the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Miles Davis, & Carlos Santana. In 1995, Murali joined Duke Robillard’s touring band and was quickly signed as a solo artist resulting in the stax/volt influenced “Eyes Wide Open”. In 1999 Murali recorded “2120” for Marshall Chess in which Rolling Stone named Murali “One promising new hound”. Over the years Murali has toured with father Larry Coryell and Joe Louis Walker as a featured artist and appeared many times as supporting act for B.B. King. “Murali’s latest CD “Sugar Lips” reached # 5 in 2010 on the Living Blues Radio Chart was recorded in Nashville with Tom Hambridge producer of Buddy Guy’s latest Grammy winner. Featuring special guest stars Joe Louis Walker and Larry Coryell, Cortney Harding of Billboard called it “one sweet triptych across the musical map”. The CD received rave reviews in Living Blues and Elmore Magazines and also resulted in a Murali Coryell feature in Guitar Player Magazine. Internet music lovers can listen to the Murali Coryell channel on Pandora. The official website is http://www.muralicoryell.com


The release and touring behind Murali Coryell’s latest CD release “Sugar Lips” has drawn praise from such music heavyweights as Jimmy Webb, Judy Collins and Joe Louis Walker.
Acclaimed by Billboard, CNN, Rolling Stone, & The New York Times, singer/guitarist/songwriter Murali Coryell is a rising force in contemporary American music. As the son of jazz guitar legend Larry Coryell and author/actress Julie Coryell and grandson of TV, film and stage actress Carol Bruce, Murali was born into an entertainment family. Murali has a voice, a guitar style and a musical intuition that enable him to excel at many different kinds of music. To quote Mark Uricheck in reviewing “Sugar Lips” in Living Blues Magazine “He can play beer-soaked blues until last call, and he can also hang with more pop-tinged material-think a grittier, bluesier John Mayer.”
“Murali’s latest CD “Sugar Lips” released November 17, 2009 reached # 5 on the Living Blues Radio Chart was recorded in Nashville with Grammy nominated producer Tom Hambridge featuring special guest stars Joe Louis Walker and Larry Coryell. The CD has also garnered features and rave reviews in Guitar Player Magazine, Elmore Magazine, Living Blues, and newspapers across the United States. Murali Coryell can be seen this year performing extensively as a featured artist with Joe Louis Walker. Murali has toured as the supporting act for B.B. King and played with Buddy Guy, Levon Helm, George Clinton, George Thorogood & Gavin DeGraw among others. Murali’s music can be heard on independent, college, blues, internet, Pandora and public radio. As a performer, songwriter and producer Murali has built up a body of hook laden classic and contemporary blues, rock and soul songs that have appeared in TV, film and been covered by other artists.
Over the course of multiple solo CD’s as well as in collaboration with his father Larry and brother Julian, Murali has recorded the songs of Sam Cooke, Al Green, Jimi Hendrix, Muddy Waters, Charles Mingus and Marvin Gaye as well as the Chess Chicago blues classics on the CD co-produced by Marshall Chess “2120”. Murali’s voice and guitar has been heard on NBC’s TV show “Crossing Jordan”. Murali Coryell is a fully realized artist in complete control of a voice with soul to burn and the tastiest of guitar chops.

GARFISH will be returning to perform at the Harbor Loop Concert Series Thursday August 23rd, 6:30 to 8:00pm. This is their first apperance since 2008.

Pictured from left to right, Gary Hiltz, Doug Comeau, Kevin Lopes, Walter Piscitello & Paul MacEachern

Garfish will be performing classic rock-n-roll music from the 1960’s & 70’s. The band performs their own renditions of classic songs by Jethro Tull, Chicago, Styx, The Doors, Joe Cocker, Billy Joel, Dropkick Murphys and others which will surely get the crowd to its feet. The second band to perform that evening will be Miss Judys Farm.

The band consists of Walter Piscitello on drums, along with fellow musicians: Kevin Lopes on lead vocals, Doug Comeau on guitar & vocals, Gary Hiltz on bass & vocals and Paul MacEachern on keyboards, guitar and vocals.

Garfish has played regularly at many area venues since forming the band in 2006, including the Topsfield Fair, American Cancer Society and Senator Bruce Tarr fundraisers along with other local benefits and venues on the North Shore.

Bring your chairs, blankets and picnic dinner and enjoy the show from the lawn of the historic Fitz Henry Lane House with views of Gloucester’s Inner Harbor.

Also playing will be:

6:30 pm JOHN ROCKWELL w/ the Human Jukebox

6:30 pm MISS JUDY’S FARM

Talk To The Hand is a women’s a cappella quartet, rocking out in venues in and around Boston. 

These foxy ladies use no instruments, except their four voices. Listen to some clips, and marvel that such a
full, luscious sound can emanate from these four wee lasses. Hang on to your hat, as you experience Talk To
The Hand covers of a mind-boggling variety of pop, rock, and country artists – all rendered with the magical
touch of The Hand. 

Can you handle the hand?

Thursday – 9:00-12:00

Dave says,

Any of you who were at the Rummie last thursday witnessed the remarkable sit-in of Mr. Sam Hooper, guitar-slayer from L.A.. Well, guess what?  He’s gonna join us for a complete evening this Thursday along with his old buddy and crackerjack frontman/guitslinger, Mr. Greg Lutrell. It’s gonna be a rainbow coalition!  Greg, one of our faves, has just returned from China where he received the Sum Yung Guy Award for the least amount of noodles in a guitar solo. And he can sing like an angel! Handsome, too. Turns out that Sam and Greg are old buddies, and are looking forward to kvetching and meshing their way thru the entire canon of sweet American soul and other roots music.
I’ll be in the background cringing along with our tonsorally challenged egg-beating rhythm ace, Mr. Steve Chaggaris. I’m counting on losing some hair, myself. We’re gonna wind this thing up and let it go; see where it takes us. It’s going to be a heck ova nite. Don’t forget to re-charge your pacemakers.
And don’t forget: almost every Monday, from 1 to 3 , you are invited to witness the materialization of the Good Old Salty Jazz Band at the Rose Baker Senior Center. We swing ,we sway , we stumble thru the entire labryinth of pre-concocted Dixieland, trad jazz, and the great American schlongbook. And it’s free! EMTs’are standing by! Do come! We’ll be there next Monday. Seeya!

The singing begins at 6:00 every Monday night. For all the schooner heads this is quite a thing to see. If you have someone coming into town and want to hear and see something very different it can be pretty cool.

Be warned though- don’t go planning a meeting or meet-up where you think you’re going to be able to carry on a conversation while they are singing. Best to plan it for a different night at the Dog Bar.

Thursday – 9:00 to 12:00 ~ Dave Sag’s Blues Party

Dave says,

Well, kids, it’s about that time again. The mad rush of summer visitors at my house has got me in a tizzy and despite visits by the FBI and DEA, the madness continues with the arrival of Mr. John Rankin from New Orleans. He’ll be arriving soon with his muddy boots and resonator guitar to assail you with the entire catalogue of N.O.roots music. Educator,emulator,excavator, this guy does it all. And sings, too.
John has been so busy, what with performances, guitar workshops and teaching, that I’m so glad the New Orleans cops have let him have the opportunity to flee the state and come up here for some much needed community service. I promised to send him back on time.Put up my home as collateral, too.
On drums ,we’ll be sporting Mr. Andrew Jones, who’s been furiously trying to learn the N.O. style of sloppy groove,and with all of us drooling, it’s gonna be a mess. Bring paper towels!
And don’t forget: Monday afternoon from 1 to 3 the Good Old Salty Jazz Band hits the dirt at the Rose Baker Senior Center. It’s free, for all of you who are economically challenged. Mr. Rankin will be playing with us, too. You don’t know what you’re missing. It’s better than “Cats”.

The Dog Bar~http://dogbarcapeann.com/welcome1.html


Mondays – 6:00 to 8:00 ~ Chantey Night, an open Monday night sing featuring members of Three Sheets to the Wind, Knockabout, and other music groups from the North Shore and the Boston area, has moved from the Cape Ann Brewing Company to the Dog Bar . The singing begins at 6:00 every Monday night. For all the schooner heads this is quite a thing to see. If you have someone coming into town and want to hear and see something very different it can be pretty cool.

Be warned though- don’t go planning a meeting or meet-up where you think you’re going to be able to carry on a conversation while they are singing. Best to plan it for a different night at the Dog Bar.
