CFCU Community Credit Union Cortland Main Street Music Series presents the concert lineup for FRIDAY, JULY 27: 5:30 pm Stiv Morgan is a singer-songwriter with a list of influences as unique as his sound. Based out of Cortland, NY, Stiv has now been writing & performing his brand of American roots music for over a decade 6:10 pm The New York six-piece The Big Takeover take their cues from Desmond Dekker & the first wave of Jamaican pop music as well as from the soulful energy & sophistication of Motown global in a blend that reveals deep fluency in reggae and world music, hints of soul, and a pop classicism that is their own thing entirely. 7:15 pm Kat Wright, whose voice is both sultry & dynamic, delicate yet powerful; gritty but highly emotive and nuanced, has been described as “a young Bonnie Raitt meets Amy Winehouse”. Add to that voice enough stage presence to tame lions, and the combination of feline femininity proves immediately enchanting. There’s soul flowing in and out of her rock ‘n’ roll with a serpentine seduction. Some of soul music’s sweet, grand dames belt, shout, seethe, and succumb, while Wright sings gently like a heartache’s apology. It’s funky in spots and beautiful all over. And it hurts a little … like it should. The concert is FREE and open to the public - donations appreciated. Bring lawn chairs, but please keep the coolers at home! Many thanks to our sponsors CFCU Community Credit Union, X101 Always Classic, Town Line Technologies, LLC and CNY Arts for making the concert series possible.
