PUMA PEARL & FRIENDS / SOULCAKE
Venue: 11th St Bar
510 E. 11th St NYC
Showtime: 8 pm
Puma Perl and Friends has been merging Puma’s poetry with rock and roll and music of all genres for over 10 years. Joff Wilson (guitar), Joe Sztabnik (bass), and Dave Donen (percussion) play both original compositions and covers behind her spoken word. Each show includes a couple of songs by Joe and Joff, and the band is often joined by other friends playing everything from sax to harp to trombone to violin. Puma and the other band members have been stalwarts of the NYC downtown scene and have performed individually and with other projects throughout the United States and Europe.
SoulCake singer/songwriter/guitarist Joff Wilson leads the band; Laura Sativa brings flute and percussion to the arrangements and Sarafe is a distinctive presence on bass. SoulCake has earned a reputation for shows that are fun and full of surprises, from unannounced guests and spontaneous repertoire to new interpretations of audience favorites.

ROB EUROPE
Venue: Little Fish
50 N Sea Drive Southold, NY
Showtime: 5 pm - 8 pm
Europe said he didn’t get started on the North Fork music scene, but rather the North Fork music scene got him started playing blues, rock, soul, folk and country. In his teens, other local bands and musicians who were established guided him, introducing him to a network of entertainers, venues and listeners. Europe started out playing the blues, for the most part, and has expanded his repertoire to include a balance of genres.
“My style is very much a rootsy one, I do soft solo acoustic stuff in one place and then you can see me elsewhere with a full band playing my electric entirely too loud,” Europe said. “Anything in between is also possible, but the one constant is that I will more than likely be playing fingerstyle [plucking without a pick].”
For all you jazz hounds out there, it's important to note that Europe is the great-grandson of influential Ragtime jazz composer and bandleader James Reese Europe.
DANNY KEAN
