Vetiver returns to Hudson to play a benefit to bring community radio to Greene and Columbia counties. DJ Lunar Moss will also play tunes, and Nina Violet will also perform. Other special guests to be announced. Live webstream from WGXC Online Radio at www.wgxc.org, and archived recordings there too after the show.

From Wikipedia: Vetiver are an American folk band headed by songwriter Andy Cabic and often joined by Devendra Banhart, drummer Otto Hauser [who lives in Hudson], keyboardist Sarah Versprille, guitarist Daniel Hindman, and bassist Bob Parins. Their music has been described as "surreal," "lullingly pleasant," "tender and accessible," and "quirky and warm."

DJ Lunar Moss is a Hudson-based turntablist who performs Thursday nights at PM Wine Bar, and soon on WGXC.

Nina Violet, described performing at The Black Swan in Tivoli by Ammuse's blog: "Nina Violet’s vocals are comforting and warming, enveloping the listener in their heartiness. Her voice is as clear as a mountain brook, glorious as the sun, and free as the wind. In addition to singing and writing songs, Nina plays guitar and viola. Playing with her at The Black Swan were Angel Russell on trumpet, Matthew Cullen on bass and guitar, Adam Howl on guitar, and Marciana Jones on omnichord, keyboard, and vocals. Marciana has a beautiful voice as well, and when she sang with Nina the two created breathtaking harmonies. Their vocals combined are truly something extraordinary to behold — probably because they’re sisters. I’ve heard that siblings often have the most exquisite harmonies, which I’ve never thought to be particularly true. After hearing Marciana and Nina, however, I’m pretty much convinced."
