The Myles Mancuso Band -- 12 Grapes' pick for "Best of the Valley"

The Peekskill Jazz & Blues Festival "Best of the Valley" is a town-wide battle of the bands. Performing at 12 Grapes is our "Best of the Vally" pick -- one of the hottest Blues guitar players in the Hudson Valley and New York City -- Myles Mancuso. The band with the most votes tonight gets to perform on the Main Stage at the 7th Annual Jazz & Blues Festival on Saturday, July 27!

The reviews have been pouring in since "Mojo" Myles was 9 years old. "Myles reminds me of myself when I was a boy." (Les Paul) "He may be a boy, but he sure plays like a man." (Levon Helm). Myles has performed on some of NYC's top stages: BB Kings, The Cutting Room, Tera Blues, Iridium Jazz Club, Bitter End & others. His band has opened for major national acts: Levon Helm, Buddy Guy, Derek Trucks and many more. Myles just released his latest CD, "Blow My Blues Away". 

At just 17 years old, Myles is "a musical legend in the making."

Come for "Dinner & Show" or come in at 10 to listen and VOTE FOR MYLES!
