Tarantella anyone? Villa Palagonia, a band featuring guitarist Joe Ravo, bassist Greg Maker, percussionist Dave Mancuso, and me, Allison Scola, on vocals, clarinet, guitar, and frame drums, will be performing this coming Wednesday, Nov. 2 at 7PM in New York City at Rockwood Music Hall, Stage 3 (185 Orchard Street). We invite you to come to forget all the noise outside and sing and dance with us … Let’s make joy together! … just like Joe and I are doing here in the Hall of Mirrors at Villa Palagonia, the estate in Bagheria, Sicily for which our ensemble is named (Photo by Filippo Buttitta). Our one-hour concert of eclectic original songs will be peppered with traditional Sicilian folk songs. 

Please join us! Tickets can be purchased in advance at https://www.ticketfly.com/purchase/event/1344673.
