The Juniper Valley Park 2008 Summer Concert Series

THURS., JULY 10th
Blues Night
SHADETREE MECHANICS
It's been awhile since a band has come along that seems to really enjoy playing. When was the last time you saw a band having as much fun as the people watching them? Just such a band is Shadetree Mechanics. Named after an old ZZ Hill tune, these guys smoke!! The Shadetree Mechanics have been stirring up the music scene and making a name for themselves in the New York metropolitan area playing such venues as B.B. King's Blues Club, Manny's Car Wash, and the South Street Seaport.

THURS., JULY 17th
Big Band Night
LOU PICARDI ORCHESTRA
With encore album the “Swinging Sounds of Lou Picardi”, there is a definite attempt to keep alive the great tradition of the American big bands. This band reinstates the classic style that is often skipped over or manipulated by the machine-manufactured music age. The Lou Picardi swing orchestra serves as a bridge between the present and the era of sensitive crooners. It's master musicianship at its best.

die SCHLAUBERGER (dSb)
dSb are the only band of their genre to perform a show and
sing the American National Anthem in front of 50,000 fans at Shea Stadium, and have since been invited back on four more occasions. In May of 2001, they were designated the “Official Band” of the Bayern München/NYNJ Metrostar International Soccer Friendly at Giant Stadium headlining before 30,000 soccer fans. Jumping from state to state, dSb has built an incredible fan base. In July of 2005 dSb was involved in a movie shoot for the comedy “Down In The Mouth” with director/actor Kirby Ward.
