There will be as much musical diversity as there will be variety of foods at next month's Taste of Syracuse.

 

The musical lineup for the two-day, free-admission event in and around Clinton Square covers everything from high school rock bands to veteran Central New York bands to the daughter of one of the biggest pop stars in the business to a classic rocker whose songs have been bellowed by happy party-goers for the last 28 years.

 

National headliners are Alexa Ray Joel, piano-playing-and-singing daughter of Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley in her first festival appearance ever, and classic rocker Eddie Money.

 

The Syracuse Area Music Awards will hold its third outdoor session in conjunction with Taste of Syracuse on the main stage June 2. The awards, which began in 1993 in the Landmark Theatre, will feature performances by Simple Life, The Donna Colton Band, C Jack Motown Revue and Todd Hobin. Awards for best CDs in 10 categories will be announced around the music.

Last week, Alexa Ray Joel, on-leave NYU student and daughter of Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley, made her New York City musical debut at the Cutting Room before a standing-room-only crowd that included both parents, her piano teacher, her publicist (whom she shares with Billy), and her voice coach. Alexa sang, played piano (backed by a three-man band), and chatted with the audience. (Sample banter: “My mom said, ‘That song is so good. It’s by Ray Charles, right?’ I said, ‘Uh, no, Mom, it’s by me.’ ”) Brinkley sat close to the stage, bobbed to the beats, and waved her table votive like a lighter at the end, while the more subdued Piano Man kept a low profile in the back. “I’m the luckiest mom in the world,” Brinkley gushed. “She literally came out singing. She would pop out these songs when she was 3, and I would say to Billy, ‘You should record that.’ ” The proud papa always knew his daughter had talent. “She’s pretty much doing this on her own. She had perfect pitch as a baby,” he said. “I guess it’s genetic.”

It was an excellent sign: the sight of Alexa Ray Joel in her pigtails and fishnets checking out the opening band between smooches with her bass-player boyfriend.

 

Sign up for: Globe Headlines e-mail | Breaking News Alerts The 20-year-old daughter of pop star Billy Joel and supermodel Christie Brinkley looked like a real girl, a nice girl, albeit a girl who in so many ways, for both better and worse, drew the daddy card in the genetic lottery. Diminutive in stature, pronounced in facial features, and a natural singer of songs (miraculously, given that Kelly Osbourne is the rule and Bonnie Raitt the exception when it comes to musical celebrity offspring), Joel is tiptoeing into the family business.

 

Armed with no album, no team of handlers, and none of the fanfare that characteristically accompanies a rock-royalty debut, Joel brought a three-piece band and 10 songs, all but one original, to Great Scott on Monday. And while there were hardly enough patrons in the club to log a couple of dozen hits on her MySpace page, Joel, seated at her Yamaha electric piano, plowed valiantly through her 50-minute set of sturdy pop-rock tunes and contemplative singer-songwriter fare. There's nothing remotely indie or trendy about Joel. As a songwriter she's clearly absorbed the classics -- Carole King, Elton John, Billy Joel. As a singer she's quite frankly a powerhouse -- a nimble, soulful vocalist with genuine personality and a wonderfully original feel for phrasing.

As a performer, well, she's green. Joel announced each song with a stiff ''This next one is called . . ." A couple of them -- ''Far Away," most notable for its pedestrian chord changes and journal-entry lyrics, and a '50s-inflected toe-tapper that she should give to her father -- will surely be the source of a cringe in later years. But Joel's gifts are obvious despite her inexperience, and so is her intelligence. How clever to be honing her craft in small, sparsely filled rooms, for the curious few, away from the media glare. And how refreshingly novel.

Alexa Ray Joel 'Sketches' out tour

Alexa Ray Joel 'Sketches' out tour
LiveDaily.com - USA
The New York-based performer, the daughter of Billy Joel (tickets | music) and Christie Brinkley, will kick off her tour Sept. 24 ...

 

Singer/songwriter Alexa Ray Joel (tickets | music) will head out on an 18-city tour this fall, backing her self-released and independently distributed debut EP, "Sketches."

The New York-based performer, the daughter of Billy Joel (tickets | music) and Christie Brinkley, will kick off her tour Sept. 24 in Portland, OR, opening for Teddy Geiger and Holly Brook, before moving into the headlining portion of the outing starting Sept. 26 in Spokane, WA.

 

The first half of her itinerary concentrates on the Pacific Northwest and West Coast before sending her back to the East Coast in November. Joel will make a number of appearances at Hard Rock Cafes around the country, something she also did earlier this year.

 

The singer's first recorded effort, "Sketches," officially released in late August, contains six originals, and can be obtained through iTunes and also by accessing Joel's official website.

 

Joel was in the news recently after she passed out backstage before an early September performance at New York's Marist College. Addressing the fainting spell on her MySpace site, Joel assured her fans that the incident was nothing to worry about.

 

"I'm absolutely fine, and I was only in the hospital for a few hours," she wrote. ""I pretty much exhausted myself to the point that I couldn't do the show...I ended up fainting from stress, lack of sleep, and just overall exhaustion."

 

Joel also cited her mother's well-publicized divorce proceedings with Peter Cook as a contributing factor to her stress level.

JOEL'S DAUGHTER DEFENDS STEPMOTHER

BILLY JOEL's daughter ALEXA RAY JOEL has spoken out in defence of her stepmother KATIE LEE, insisting Lee did not marry her father for his money.

Joel married TV cookery correspondent KATIE LEE in 2004 - even though Lee is only four years older than 20-year-old Alexa, who is set to launch her own pop career.

 

But Alexa, the daughter of Joel and his first wife, model CHRISTIE BRINKLEY, believes their love is genuine.

 

She says, "I certainly know what it's like to be labelled and given a hard time because you're connected with someone - my dad. I'm sure that was hard for her, too. Once I got to know her, all my worries kind of went away.

 

"Katie has her own career going and she's very talented in her own right. If she was some air-headed ditzy girl, that would be an issue."

Former model Christie Brinkley has filed for divorce from her husband of 10 years Peter Cook.

 

Last month it was revealed that Cook had had an affair with an 18 year old employee Diana Bianchi; Brinkley and Cook have one child together, and eight year old daughter, Sailor.

 

Cook’s lawyer David Aronson, confirmed that divorce papers had been filed, and according to MSN said: "We are told that a divorce action has been commenced in Suffolk County, and we have agreed to accept service of those papers,"

 

He added that Cook "regrets that this happened. He was hopeful that he and Ms Brinkley would be able to work their way through this problem and put their marriage back together, but obviously she has decided otherwise.

 

"He has instructed us that we are to handle this matter in as amicable and private a fashion as possible under the circumstances, and he hopes that everyone out there can respect the privacy of Christie and the children.”

 

Cook adopted Brinkley’s son Jack, 11, from her marriage to Richard Taubman; Brinkley has another daughter from her relationship with Billy Joel, the 20 year old Alexa Ray Joel.

 

It is as yet unsure hoe Brinkley and Cook will split their property and custody of their children.

In Brinkley family news, CHRISTIE BRINKLEY is preparing to file for divorce and her daughter ALEXA RAY JOEL reportedly fainted before a concert last Saturday night.

Christie's 20-year-old daughter with BILLY JOEL reportedly wrote on her Internet blog, "I ended up fainting from stress, lack of sleep and just overall exhaustion about five minutes before the show... I woke up to find myself in an ambulance rushing me to a local hospital near the campus, and it was -- overall -- a pretty scary night." She is reportedly now fine.

And just two months after the news broke that Christie's husband, attorney PETER COOK, was having an affair with his 19-year-old assistant, the former supermodel has reportedly begun the process of filing divorce papers against her estranged spouse.

DAVID ARONSON, a lawyer from Peter Cook's attorney's office, said on Thursday that he has yet to see the complaint, but understands that a summons has already been filed.

Aronson also released the following statement regarding the dissolution of Brinkley and Cook's 10-year marriage: "We're trying to keep as low a profile as possible. (Peter) was hopeful that they could work out their difficulties and get on with their marriage. He loves his family. Peter is very saddened that it has come to this point. But he acknowledges that's where they are. His intention (and his lawyers have been instructed to) handle this as amicably and private as possible under the circumstances. We're not looking to get into he said she said. It's just not appropriate."

BILLY JOEL and CHRISTIE BRINKLEY's daughter ALEXA RAY JOEL has spoken out after passing out backstage before a concert at Marist College in New York last Saturday night (09SEP06).

 

Writing on her MySpace.com blog site, the singer admits the stress of her touring schedule and her mother's very public marriage problems left her anxious throughout the day before the show.

 

And it all came to a head five minutes before she was due to hit the stage at the college with her quartet.

 

She writes, "I pretty much exhausted myself to the point that I couldn't do the show... I ended up fainting from stress, lack of sleep, and just overall exhaustion.

"I woke up to find myself in an ambulance rushing me to a local hospital near the campus, and it was - overall - a pretty scary night... This has never happened before.

 

"I guess I was really pushing myself to the limit this week. I was having quite a bit of anxiety in general that day, so I guess this was just my body's way of telling me to RELAX... something I haven't done in a while!" Joel hopes to reschedule the show later this year.

Brinkley Officially Files For Divorce, Daughter Collapses

 

Christie Brinkley filed for divorce from Peter Cook earlier this week in Suffolk County Court, two months after Cook admitted to having an affair with a 19-year-old former employee of his architectural firm. One of the philanderer's lawyers tells the AP, "[Cook] regrets that this happened ... He was hopeful that they would be able to work through this problem and put their marriage back together, but obviously she has decided otherwise."

 

Elsewhere, the stress of her mother's ordeal and a busy professional schedule may have felled Brinkley's 20-year-old daughter with Billy Joel, Alexa Ray. The aspiring singer-songwriter says on her MySpace blog that she fainted Saturday "from stress, lack of sleep and just overall exhaustion about five minutes" before a show in upstate New York. She had to be taken to the ER by ambulance, but is fine now: "I guess I was really pushing myself to the limit this week," says Joel.

... discuss things like custody. Among the super model's other ex-husbands is Billy Joel, who wrote the song "Uptown Girl" for her.


NEW YORK Looks like Christie Brinkley is getting rid of husband number four.

Peter Cook's lawyer is confirming a report that Brinkley filed for divorce on Long Island, New York, ending a ten-year marriage.

The beginning of the end came over the summer, when it emerged that Cook had an affair with a teenager he'd hired to work at his architecture firm.

The couple has an eight-year-old daughter, and Cook had adopted Brinkley's son from another one of her marriages. Cook's lawyer says it's too early to discuss things like custody.

Among the super model's other ex-husbands is Billy Joel, who wrote the song "Uptown Girl" for her.

JOEL'S DAUGHTER RULES OUT DUET WITH DAD

Upcoming musician ALEXA RAY JOEL is determined to be recognised as a serious artist in her own right before she starts working with her superstar dad BILLY JOEL. Since launching her music career several years ago, the young singer/songwriter has had to endure speculation the two will one day perform together. The 21-year-old says, "I'm not gonna tour with my dad, duet with him or do any of his stuff.

"At least not until I've gotten a lot of credibility doing my own. At this point it's important I keep our two careers separate."

Christie Brinkley's Revenge

As former fashion model and business woman IVANA TRUMP once said, "Looking good is the best revenge."

It seems another former model, Cover Girl spokesperson CHRISTIE BRINKLEY, is living proof that these words ring true. The 52-year-old mother of three returned to her Hamptons home yesterday, but in contrast to reports that she is in low spirits after her split from husband PETER COOK, the radiant California girl is doing her best to glow in the unwelcome light of her recent marriage scandal.

Emerging from seclusion this week, she met the press -- sans wedding ring -- as she handed popsicles to a New York Daily News photographer at her New York estate, the newspaper said. A day later, she reportedly had a tray of pink lemonade, water and homemade chocolate-chip cookies delivered to the paparazzi outside her home to ensure their comfort in the sweltering heat.

It was just last month that the blonde beauty was swept up in a media maelstrom when news broke that her relationship had ended. Upon learning about her husband's alleged infidelity with his 19-year-old assistant, Christie's response was swift and decisive.

"The Insider"'s MARC MALKIN reports that the couple were preparing to leave for a trade show to promote a new furniture line when the bombshell dropped. The trip was cancelled.

Her publicist later confirmed reports that Christie and her fourth husband were separating.

Meanwhile, dauther ALEXA RAY is making mom proud. The 19-year-old aspiring singer -- dad is Piano Man BILLY JOEL -- was recently photographed for the British edition of Hello! magazine. "She had the best hair, make-up and everything," a source told Malkin. "It's pretty major. Alexa really wants to make it on her own."

While her marriage may be in disarray, Christie has shown no signs of distress. Perhaps the best revenge is to simply pick up, move on -- and of course -- look good doing it!

Christie back from Brink of despair

A chic and ever-so-cool Christie Brinkley emerged from seclusion the other day in the Hamptons, wearing a big CoverGirl smile, but no wedding ring!

The vintage supermodel, who packed up the kids and went home to La-La to take refuge with her parents last month when news broke about her hubby Peter Cook’s...

Christie Brinkley Meets with Her Ex

Christie Brinkley met with her estranged husband, architect Peter Cook, and his parents on Tuesday, according to the New York Daily News.

"I'd rather not comment," Brinkley, 52, told the paper as she left her $22 million estate in New York's Hamptons after the visit from the Cooks. "I just don't want to fuel this anymore."

Although Cook, 47, has been photographed recently wearing his wedding ring, Brinkley was not wearing hers on Tuesday.

The appearance marks Brinkley's return to the Hamptons, where she and Cook lived until Brinkley learned that Cook had carried on a year-long affair with Diana Bianchi, now 19, whom he'd hired to work as an assistant in his office.

After Brinkley's July 12 announcement that she was separating from Cook after 10 years of marriage, the "devastated" CoverGirl model took her kids Jack, 11, and Sailor, 8, to Los Angeles to be with her parents and has kept out of sight ever since.

Cook, who has publicly apologized for his infidelity, arrived at about 1:30 p.m. Tuesday at the gated home he and Brinkley had shared; he was followed by his elderly parents, Harry and Jean, who were driven in a town car from their Long Island home, according to the Daily News.

After a 15-minute visit, Brinkley led the caravan out of the estate in her tan Lexus SUV, the paper reports.

An hour later, Brinkley returned to the house with her 20-year-old daughter Alexa Ray Joel (whose dad is Brinkley's ex, Billy Joel).

Pausing in the driveway, Brinkley handed the Daily News photographer a box of Popsicles, saying, "Here, this is a little gift for you. I want you to take this. It's very, very hot out."

Brinkley Briefly Sees Cheating Hubby, Passes Out Popsicles



Minus her wedding ring but bearing a healthy smile and a sympathetic heart towards a photographer, Christie Brinkley returned to the Hamptons yesterday and had an encounter with her philanderer husband Peter Cook.

The supermodel was spotted by the New York Daily News yesterday arriving at her and Cook's $22 million Bridgehampton estate, when Cook himself and Cook's parents arrived around the same time. The group was inside the house for about 15 minutes and then all hightailed it out together.

Later, says the Daily News, Brinkley returned to the compound and gave a photographer on stakeout duty on one of the steamiest days of the year a box of Popsicles with a note inside, saying, "I want you to take this. It's very, very hot out." The note repeated that sentiment, reading, "Sorry you have to do this on a such a hot day!" And Brinkley and 20-year-old daughter Alexa Ray Joel, who was in the car with her, also gave the photog two leather bracelets promoting stopglobalwarming.com.

NEW YORK - Christie Brinkley's songbird daughter, Alexa Ray Joel, said her mother's public betrayal may put the supermodel off marriage for good, acco

NEW YORK - Christie Brinkley's songbird daughter, Alexa Ray Joel, said her mother's public betrayal may put the supermodel off marriage for good, according to a published report.

``I don't think my mom will be getting married again anytime soon,'' Joel told a friend, according to Star magazine. ``It's going to take her a long time to get over this. As for trusting someone enough to marry again -- I don't know.''

Joel, 20, is Brinkley's daughter with piano man Billy Joel and a budding singer in her own right. Brinkley also has an 11-year-old son, Jack, with third husband Richard Taubman and 7-year-old daughter Sailor Lee with current husband Peter Cook.

Brinkley, 52, recently fled the Hamptons with the two youngest children in tow after Cook's infatuation and affair with 19-year-old assistant Diana Bianchi.

``She has her kids, and apart from the divorce, she's happy about where she is in her life right now,'' Star reports Alexa Ray Joel as saying. ``Thank God Sailor is too young to really understand what's going on. She doesn't know what her dad did or why everyone is mad at him.''

Cook, 47, issued an apology through his attorney last week and has kept a low profile in Southampton, Long Island, where he runs an architecture firm.

Sources said he and Brinkley were invited to three major Hamptons parties last weekend, but have sent their regrets to each.

Brinkley's spokesman did not return a call seeking comment, but a family source told the New York Daily News that the former Cosmo Girl is keeping mum so as not to jeopardize her prenuptial agreement.

Star magazine also reported that Brinkley insisted that everyone in Cook's architecture firm sign a nondisclosure agreement, barring them from speaking out about their boss or his wife.

Billy Joel’s Kid To Release First Record

Feeling old? If not, this should do it. Tomorrow, Alexa Ray Joel, 21-year-old daughter of Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley, releases her first record, “Sketches.”

Alexa Ray has decided to skip the regular route of going to a major record company and instead will release her debut EP (short for ‘extended play’) on her own independent label.

Fans will be able to buy it from her Web site — www.alexarayjoel.com — as well as download it from all the usual places on the Internet.

You can already hear three of the songs on Alexa Ray’s MySpace page. They include “The Heart of Me,” “Come Home to Me Do” and “Sapphire Night.” They are all bluesy pop numbers in which Alexa accompanies herself on piano.

She’s more Melissa Manchester circa 1973 than Billy Joel, but you can definitely pick up Dad’s genetic influence in her recordings.

In any case, Alexa Ray is here to stay, and she’s serious about her career. She joins a not-so-select group of second-generation pop stars like Julian Lennon, his brother Sean, Ben and Sally Taylor (Carly Simon and James Taylor's kids), the Wilson Phillips gang, Ricky Nelson’s sons and Sting’s son Joe Sumner's group Fiction Plane.

Interestingly, most of those artists have opted not to sign with big record companies and put out their own CDs.

Some, like Ben Taylor and Julian Lennon, started with major labels and then went indie. Sean Lennon’s done the reverse for his upcoming release, opting to go with family company Capitol. His first album was on a small label.

Of course, cryptographers will pour over Alexa’s lyrics to see if there’s anything about her mom’s soured marriage to a philandering architect.

But something tells me the message — if there is one — will be fairly hidden. The girl has more important things to sing about, I should think.
