Gus Mancini, also known as The Sultan Of Sonic Soul, is a family member of the WoodstockRoundtable’s Sunday morning Radio Show on WDST at 100.1 FM. Gus has now performed on the show over 300 times, live on air, spanning 27 years and counting. The Sonic Soul Band is one of the most unique bands in the Hudson Valley because their performances are TOTALLY improvised. The Sultan, now at 84 years young, a master of improvisational Saxophone, and Synth with a varied musical career spanning 60 plus years, has performed with many of the elite of all genres of music. Most notably he’s performed with the Flagstaff Symphony Orchestra and the Hudson Valley Philharmonic and for many years in the great Cathedral of Saint John Divine in NYC.

Green Kill Sessions Program

Musicians and performers can shine on stage—and online—through Green Kill’s one-hour livestream shows. Performances happen Friday through Sunday evenings (except the first and third Fridays). Each event features a small in-person audience (30 seats) and global livestream access.

Performers are expected to help promote their shows, arrive early for sound checks, and send in equipment lists ahead of time. The venue provides a full sound and lighting setup, including drums, amps, a digital piano, and livestream equipment.

Earnings from ticket sales are split among performers, the venue, and the sound engineer—so promotion and turnout matter! Green Kill shares event highlights on YouTube and Substack, giving performers lasting, professional-quality footage to use for promotion. Learn more.
