May 2023 Performers

Toby Gibson Band

Singer/Songwriter Toby Gibson hails from Sneedville, Tennessee. He grew up playing bluegrass, country and soul with his grandfather and local musicians. His songwriting is also influenced by his life in Appalachia. He's released several singles and the album "Dirt Road" in 2020. His new album will be released in Spring, 2023. He is also the lead singer/guitarist and principal songwriter of the Toby Gibson Band. The Toby Gibson Band blends Americana, folk, blues and jam for a sound all their own. The band has drawn comparisons to John Mellencamp, Bob Seger and Tom Petty, and their live show is diverse and engaging. Toby is a staple in the East Tennessee music scene and will Tour the country in 2023

Bella DeNapoli

Bella DeNapoli [singer — songwriter] from Long Island, New York. She is currently bi-coastal from NY to LA! You may recognize her from her recent spotlight on Team Ariana Grande’s “Top 4” Season 21 on NBC's The Voice! She has received guidance from the best of the best and is taking on the music industry by storm.

Points East

"Points East is a family band from the North Fork of Long Island performing original music and unique arrangements of cover tunes with an acoustic alternative folk country flavor. Having grown up in a family of musicians, Brian and Heather with their father Keith played for years with family and friends at countless get togethers and functions. Taking that experience and energy to the public they continue to engage and extend their ever-expanding family of friends and fans. Their original songs reflect deep personal experience, the emotions of which are communicated through warm, satisfying harmonies and clean, unadorned arrangements"

Annalyse & Ryan

Annalyse & Ryan are a NY-based Americana duo. Their sound and songs take listeners on a soulful, rootsy journey, “resounding from the hollers with a haunting beauty” (Jeff Biggers, Huffington Post). The sweetness and severity in their music echos a cross between The Civil Wars and Tedeschi Trucks Band. Annalyse & Ryan’s strong harmonies melt together seamlessly, with an undeniable edge: a symbiotic clash reminiscent of their differing senses of place, yet their ironically parallel styles of seeing the world. Their music has been featured on CBS, BBC, and in multiple documentaries. The duo is touring this spring in support of their new EP Trilogy. The album features a phenomenal group of musicians brought together for this 3-song project.

Laura Cheadle

Along with her Family Band, she has opened for some of the biggest names in the business and won numerous awards, including “Best Indie Jazz/Blues Band” at WXPN sponsored Tri-State Indie Music Awards. She has performed on stages from NYC to London, appeared on 6ABC’s “Tuned In” as the very first viewer’s choice, the “NBC 10” Show, and the National reality show “Next Great Family Band.” Laura was recently featured in Curve Magazine, named one of “100 Women We Love” in Go Magazine, and declared a “Super Woman” in South Jersey Magazine for her active Charity Work.

Mark Newman

"Mark Newman Bio... Growing up in New York, Mark Newman’s musical journey has taken him around the world several times as both sideman and singer/songwriter. This ace stringman (guitar, lap steel, mandolin, dobro) and accomplished songwriter is the type of singer whose warm and expressive voice sounds like an old friend. He put it all together on 2006’s “Must Be A Pony” (Danal Music, LLC). In 2010 he took a quantum leap forward with the stunning “Walls Of Jericho” (Danal Music. LLC) and has just released, “Brussels”( Danal Music. LLC), a live solo EP. “Empirical Truth”, his latest CD was released in June, 2018 (Danal Music, LLC, distributed by WBA Records). It won best CD from the Long Island Blues Society. Sharing the stage with such notables as soul legend Sam Moore (Sam & Dave), John Oates(Hall and Oates), Jim McCarty (Yardbirds, Renaissance),the late Willy DeVille (Mink DeVille), Bobby Whitlock (Derek and the Dominos), Sam The Sham and Darlene Love has given Newman the perspective to craft an individualistic sound framed in straight-from-the-hip rock’n’roll, simmering with the subtle flavors of blues, R’n’B, funk, folk and soul. Mark is currently touring with the reformed Blues Project."

Nicholas Grant & Mike Robbins

Nicholas Grant and Mike Robbins are set to return for their third appearance at the Montauk Music Festival.
