Pleasantville Music Festival!
Current mood: thirsty
Category: Music

Man, we had a great time!  What a show...thanks to everyone who came out to support!  We couldn't have asked for a better reaction.  Being asked to do an encore is always a good sign.  Nothing like being VIP either.  Lots of food, beer, and we even got to meet Joan Osborne, De Sol, and Back Door Slam...good people.  We're all looking forward to this a lot more in the near future.  The best part about it is, they recorded the show, so be on the lookout for some new tunes with the whole band.  Should be ready to go in about two weeks.  Also, pics will be coming soon as well, so keep checking back.

Thanks always for the support!  See you on the road....Keep spreading the word, it's really starting to take off!!!

Check out this New Fairfied Coffee House performance review!!!
Current mood: adventurous

Hey everyone...check out this review from the New Fairfield Coffee House show on April 26th...

"T.Jay Kowalchuk took the stage with an immense presence before even opening his mouth to sing. T.Jay stands well over 6 feet and looks every bit the part of the baseball scholarship athlete he was at the University of Binghamton. Before he takes his first commanding strum on the guitar, you find yourself doubting that he will be as good as you've heard, solely based on preconceived notions of handsome athletes and music. But, the instant T.Jay started to play, all negative thoughts dispersed and amazement set in. His talent easily matched his massive amounts of energy and showmanship. Besides his patent guitar mastery, T.Jay has an impressive vocal sensibility, singing high falsetto notes and belting powerful, dynamic phrasing. The final piece of the ready-to-be-famous-package that is T.Jay, is his extremely literate and insightful gift for lyrics and his jazz-influenced, yet still mainstream sound. There is no doubt that this talented young artist, who plays frequent local gigs, will break through to the big time. T.Jay commented on his Coffee House audience, " It's great to play on any stage where the audience is almost as much into it as the performer!" That is saying volumes, considering T.Jay couldn't possible be more infatuated with performing as he is." - Meredith Rilley - Citizen News, New Fairfield, CT
