The Heavy Pets w/ Formula 5 (8:00 PM - 2:00 AM)
Putnam Den
Rhythm & blues, jazz-funk, nu-disco and reggae-fusion blended with rock & roll. H PetsThe Heavy Pets are an American band that was deemed a "living, breathing force of nature" by Relix. The Pets are known for their soulful song-craft and powerhouse live performances of their infectious dance songs. The group became an instant Sirius radio sensation with the release of their double-disc debut album, Whale (2007), driven by hit tracks "Operation of Flight" and "Sleep." First embraced by the jam scene for their raw talent, the cross-over sound that is showcased on their self-titled album (2010), which was dubbed a "Top 10 Album of 2010" by The Huffington Post, propelled them into the periphery of mainstream music. Returning to their acoustic roots for their third studio release, Swim Out Past the Sun (2011), THP's guitar duo set aside their electric axes for a more organic approach. Featuring a three song sit-in by longtime Jerry Garcia collaborator David Grisman, the album presents a fresh perspective from the ever-evolving quintet. THP and SOPTS were produced and recorded by multi-platinum, Grammy and Oscar Award-winner Scott Mathews and mastered by Grammy Award-winner Vlado Meller. Following the intensive recording sessions of their previous two releases, the Pets were eager to produce a raw product more true to their notorious live sound while adapting to the current recorded music market. That desire is where the Everywhere Sessions was born. Everywhere Sessions: Volume 1 EP was recorded in the AURA Music Events Studio in two takes with zero overdubbing or editing and features three previously unreleased tracks from three different song-writers and three different eras. The new Everywhere Session release is available for FREE download Den regulars Formula 5 open, with their progressive jam-funk.

One chilly evening, early in the fall of 2010, Adam Brockway, Dave Wright, Carl Anderson, Luke Anderson and Zack Infante gathered by a woodstove in a barn on the outskirts of Greenwich, NY. With a snare, a kick, and an old beat up high hat, Carl began teaching himself how to play the drums while Adam and Zack played along on guitars, Luke on banjo and Dave on bass. Vocal melodies and harmonies were flowing like the beer from their cans and within a few hours, the group had written 2 songs front to back and it was obvious, at least to the brand new quintet, that they had immediately put together a sound that was just as unique as it was traditional.

This year's Honorees are Kevin and Sari O'Connor. Kevin O'Connor is a well respected business leader in the Capital Region, co-founder and CEO of TechValley Communications and former President of the Center for Economic Growth. Sari O'Connor is Chief Development Officer with Northeast Parent and Child Society and has dedicated her career to the well being of children and young adults. Together, Kevin and Sari support families, community and economic matters in the Capital Region. We are thrilled to have Kevin and Sari partner with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to help us raise funds for CF research. CF is a genetic disease affecting 30,000 children and adults in the United States. It causes the body to produce abnormally thick, sticky mucus, which leads to chronic and life-threatening lung infections and impairs digestion. Since 1955 when the Foundation was established, the mission of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, a nonprofit donor-supported organization, has been to assure the development of the means to cure and control cystic fibrosis and to improve the quality of life for those with the disease. Despite all of the breakthroughs in research, we continue to lose precious lives. The money we raise at events like the 65 Roses Gala contributes to life-saving research and treatments.

PKU Fundraiser In Honor of Logan Burniche (6:00 PM)

Logan is a 9 year old Classical PKU patient. PKU is a rare genetic metabolic disorder that is currently not curable. An infant is born without the ability to properly break down an amino acid called phenylalanine. It is the building block of proteins which is obtained through diet. Without special diet, metabolic formula and close monitoring, the body can cause intellectual disabilities, mental retardation, neurological problems and memory loss. Logan has been being treated at Albany Medical Children's hospital since birth. We have been blessed by the support of the Children's Hospital, our family, friends and charitable organizations over the years as they have supported us to the fullest by helping to off-setting medical costs, giving us emotional support and most of all helping us make sure that Logan stays healthy. Now is the time to give back. We have teamed up with the National PKU Alliance. They work to improve the lives of the families and individuals associated with PKU through research and support all while seeking a cure. Families are in need of all types of support. Our goal as a team is to help raise awareness within our community. It is so important that our community know the effects and preventative measures that can help PKU patients live a happy and healthy life. We are truly confident that with your love and support this benefit will be a huge success!!! Join us!
