Considering that his father's band performed immediately before Jimi Hendrix took the stage at the legendary Woodstock festival in 1969, it's not surprising Brian Witkin grew up dreaming of becoming a rock star.
Jazz great Mike Wofford, violinist Jamie Shadowlight, jack-of-all-trades Jeff Berkley, percussionist Monette Marino and guitarist Fred Benedetti will be feted. Mary Dolan will be honored posthumously.
