General Admission
Local favorites Student Body returns for a night of high-energy musical performance intertwined with moments of introspection and reverence. The show will also pay homage to the artistry of film with a simultaneous screening of THE PASSING by Sirad Balducci, creating a multi-faceted experience that celebrates both the spirit of rock and the vibrancy of the community.
THE PASSING is a lyrical exploration of how souls traverse through time, experiencing one another and challenging the linearity of existence. Through the artful use of Super 8mm footage from the Feleppa family archives from Amagansett, NY in the 1960s and 1970s, the film crafts a visual and emotional tapestry that underscores how our memories keep our loved ones ever-present. It celebrates the ephemeral beauty of each moment and the timeless connection between past and present. Featured in the film are Tim Feleppa as a young boy, Sue Feleppa, Gian Carlo Feleppa, and Alex Feleppa.

Gian Carlo Feleppa
Gian Carlo Feleppa grew up in Amagansett obsessed with music, records, and The Beatles since the very beginning. Writing songs, playing guitar, and multi-track recording became a way of life, leading to years of listening and learning.
After receiving a degree in Songwriting and Composition at Berklee College of Music, Feleppa moved to New York City; starting multiple bands, releasing records, touring, working in record stores, instrument shops, and record pressing plants. In 2003, Feleppa purchased his first sitar and his life was forever changed. He accompanies yoga classes on sitar, performs and teaches multiple instruments and recording techniques to children of all ages at local schools and camps.
Currently, Feleppa is focused on his new band, Student Body, his 10 year old daughter, Ea, and sharing the joy of hearing sound with children in the Hamptons communities.
