From his explosive work with the band Free (All Right Now) to his chart-topping run with supergroup Bad Company (Can't Get Enough, Feel Like Makin' Love, Moving On, Good Lovin' Gone Bad, Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy), you can't go an hour listening to the radio without hearing Simon Kirke playing drums on one solid gold hit or another.
Now, with the release of his third solo album, All Because of You, Kirke is displaying even more of his talents: as a singer, a songwriter, a guitarist, a keyboardist. He even plucks the ukulele on his cheerful remake of “Feel Like Makin’ Love,” delighting his fiancee who, incredibly, was not so familiar with the original. CoolCleveland's Thomas Mulready spoke with Simon Kirke about his legacy, his drumming and his upcoming appearance on Wed 3/15 at The Kent Stage with openers The Empty Pockets.

What are your memories of playing Cleveland in the early days? I just remember it was the home of Alan Freed, so we were excited to be there, where rock ’n’ roll was first given a name.

Half a decade after Crystal Bowersox was named 2010 "American Idol" runner-up, the Toledo area native feels as though life is beautiful. The singer-guitarist, who recently turned 30, may no longer be traveling in the same circles as Ryan Seacrest but she has no regrets.
Bowersox is about to return to the Buckeye State for a Sat 11/7 show at the Kent Stage. Cool Cleveland talked to the Nashville singer recently about "Idol," a faux childhood affiliation with Pink Floyd and her current state of mind. TheKentStage.com

Blues giant Charlie Musselwhite is the stuff of legends. Listen to this exclusive interview as CoolCleveland’s Thomas Mulready talks with harmonica master Musselwhite about his upbringing in Mississippi and Memphis in the 1950’s, just as rock and roll and the blues and country and rockabilly were all colliding.
Then hear him talk about joining the great Southern migration up North to find work in the big city of Chicago, where he lived in the basement of a record store, got to know figures like John Lee Hooker, and eventually claiming the top honors in his field: induction into the Blues Hall of Fame and a 2014 Grammy for Best Blues Album.

One of Comedy's greatest legends, Ralphie May, is coming to The Kent Stage on Fri 10/03 @ 7:00pm to perform the stand up of a lifetime. Well known for being the runner up in 2003's Last Comic Standing, this funny guy will have you bustin' your gut all night long.
CoolCleveland Correspondent Marty Bielat got to interview Ralphie before he even made his trip down to Kent. Ralphie has always been one for pushing the tough topics, and from what it sounds like from his interview, Friday will be no exception. Get ready for some fun, and see the best act of his tour.
Black 47 has announced they will complete one final tour and break up in November, 2014, exactly 25 years to the day from when the band played their first gig in the Bronx.
"It was a conscious decision: let's get a date and put a cap on it. We've done 15 albums, 2500 gigs, a million different You Tubes?, so why not just go out and let us choose, " Black 47 leader Larry Kirwan told CoolCleveland in an exclusive interview. "We were in control. We called the shots." Listen to the exclusive interview here.
Fortunately, they will be bringing to The Kent Stage on Tue 10/7 their unique blend of passionate rock and roll influenced by Hip-Hop, reggae and Celtic music, all wrapped in a full-octane party that makes Black 47 unique.
"We weren't just a band singing pop songs," relates Kirwan. "We were out there in the world. It was a very volatile time and a volatile city. We were the house band of the city of New York at that period."
The band's final performances and album Last Call, heavily featured during their Farewell Tour, promise more emotional music and surprises, just as the band has come to expect throughout their storied career.
"There was a shooting at one of the gigs. It was all accidental, as it turned out," Kirwan told Cool Cleveland. "We were a passionate band. There was a lot of drinking. It was volatile. Combustible at times."
The band's final gig in Northeast Ohio takes place at The Kent Stage on Tue 10/7.
