We're really excited to welcome each of these artists to our venue.

Jesse Pilgrim's album, "Trial and Error" was largely written over one winter in Portland, ME and fully inspired by it. They really are campfire songs, unifying over a hard long winter and maybe getting through, maybe not, but at least we can all sing along.   

OK The Goddamn Rattlesnake. I've been seeing this band grow and change for the last 7 or so years in NY where o'death has been playing with them for just as long.  Our first gig with them was in '05 at the Apocalypse Lounge where we built a small community of like-minded folk-punks and our most recent gig with them was this past year at the Bell House, playing for over 400 people.  These guys are the real deal.  GraveRobbers I don't know personally but they play with the Rattlesnake often and are from North Carolina, so that could only mean good things.  This is a really special night, not to miss.

this saturday:

FRIDAYFRIDAYFRIDAY

Vermont Joy Parade

 Listen to more here!

"The Vermont Joy Parade is a six piece ensemble featuring banjo, trumpet, accordion, guitar, upright bass, drums/percussion, and vocals, playing a fervent and eclectic blend of old-time, blues, dixieland, cajun, jug, and klezmer."
And back when they played our room in October, felt like the ideal band to bring it to life. That is in fact the feeling their music gives. When everyone including myself left that night we certainly felt uplifted and somehow connected. What a night! You really won't want to miss them..gorgeous musicianship and beautiful, rambunctious voices culminate to such great heights!

Cinder Conk

Sofieski Tantz LIVE w/Ben Russell

"Cinder Conk plays music drawn from the Black Sea - the wellspring of Europe’s deepest and most diverse musical traditions. It is the sound of celebration and lament of those who have lived on its coast over thousands of years - Roma, Jews, peasants, and nationalists. Cinder Conk mixes frenzied accordion riffs and thundering double bass counterpoint with a classic bardic lyricism that invites and transcends."

 Oh wow...If you've been in a rut, Friday night might be just the ticket.

Tonight! Ticket sales have ended on brownpapertickets.com (and sold out on there regardless!). If you'd like to make it out for this arrive at 8pm. We can only sell about 10-15 more tickets at the door. Doors will not open except for the bands before 8pm, so please be patient. So extremely excited to have these great musicians here! Looking forward to a magical night!

one of my favs....

*kinda can't believe they'll be playing here....
