Join us on on Friday, April 5th, 2019, for a very special performance at the landmark Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett on the south fork of Long Island. Stephen Talkhouse is perhaps one of the best kept secrets of the Long Island music scene (for anyone west of Riverhead, anyway). They have a stellar sound system and an intimate setting. You never know who might show up! ADVANCE TICKETS

What a fantastic night for our "re-debut," and no better place to return than the place where we started, KJ Farrell's, where the crowd was raucous and raring to go, singing along on almost every song!  It was a bittersweet night, as we reflected on our departed bandmate, Sal Mingoia, and welcomed Paul Michael who has done an outstanding job filling some giant shoes.

Here are some highlights:

Many of you may have been wondering where we've been for the past year. Sadly, we have been navigating the profound loss of our friend and brother Sal Mingoia to lymphoma. After months of soul-searching, we decided to move forward because, as Chris Mingoia told us, that's what Sal wanted us to do. This led to an extensive search for someone who could step into Sal's shoes and do justice to the immense role he played for the band. We are happy to announce that search has paid off, big time. We are thrilled to announce the addition of Paul Michaels to Four Way Street. Paul is a Berklee-trained artist who brings outstanding musicianship and beautiful vocal talent to the band. His prior friendship with Chris M and Sal made him an obvious choice, and once we started rehearsing, it became clear he was, by far, the best fit for this band, both musically and personally. 

We are ready to start booking the band, so stay tuned! Thank you for your patience and support!

You may have been wondering why we've been "off the grid" for the past few months. The band had taken a hiatus due to our friend, brother and bandmate Sal Mingoia's health concerns. Sal has been undergoing chemotherapy for lymphoma, and has just completed stem cell therapy. Unfortunately, he will be sidelined for 3-6 months as his immune system recovers.   

With Sal's blessing and encouragement the band has decided to move forward with our summer schedule, and we are pleased to welcome our good friends Tom Pecoraro (guitar) and Patty McTernan Spitzler (vocals). That's right, it's gonna take two people to fill Sal's shoes!

Tom plays with The Stanton Anderson Band and is well-known on the Long Island music scene for his generosity and friendship to musicians across the region. Tom's style is unique and diverse. We look forward to what he will bring to the FWS sound! 
 

Patty is a native Long Islander who has spent the past few years in Nashville. She is a talented singer with deep roots in doo-wop, country and all manner of harmony-based music.  She is a perfect fit for CSNY material! Her tone and range will allow FWS to continue to present the tight, blended harmonies you have grown to expect from the band.

We are grateful to Tom and Patty for keeping Sal's seat warm while he recovers. We look forward to Sal rejoining the band later this year. In the meantime, we hope you will make Tom & Patty feel welcome as they join us for our summer tour!  First stop: June 8th, Foxwoods!
