Music lover Aquanetta Wright and her friends and followers will be back at the Newburgh ferry landing every night next week, spreading Christmas cheer to commuters as they arrive back home. Wright, who has won a huge following of the jazz series she created at the waterfront, is also known as the Ferry Godmother, a name that stems from her serenade of commuters over the years.
