SUMMARY:Express Checkout with Jason Bennett and Tyler James
DESCRIPTION:Express Checkout with special guests Jason Bennett and Tyler James!\n\n\nMUST BE 21+ \n$15/$20 \nDoors at 8pm \n\n\nExpress checkout is a 3 piece pub rock n roll band comprised of singer-songwriter Dave Wells\, the multi-styling Dylan Sullivan on Bass\, and the percussive scene veteran Dave Sardella on the kit. Expect a wave of a set which dips down to slower sentimental songs and crashes with sing-a-long sweaty rock hooks. \n \nExpress Checkout  \n\n\nTyler James Is a Boston area based independent artist\, playing a blend of psychedelic folk & shoe gaze. \n\n\nJason Bennett is a Boston-based songwriter and lead singer of Jason Bennett & the Resistance. \nJB&tR’s three seven-song EPs all have been met with enthusiasm from fans and critical success. \nBennett fronted the band Suspect Device from 1998 to 2003 and started JB&tR in 2006. \nThey hit the ground running\, their first record- 2008’s Hope Dies Last- was nominated for awards by both the Boston Music Awards’ committee\, as well as the Boston Phoenix’s Best Music Poll. \nAfter touring nationally for Hope the band followed up with “2:59 to Salvation”. 2:59 is as indebted to a folk tradition in the vein of Woody Guthrie and Billy Bragg as it is to Bennett’s punk rock roots in the music of The Clash and The Bad Brains. 2:59\, produced by Paul Q. Kolderie at Camp Street Studios\, earned JB&R Boston Phoenix Best Music Poll Nomination in Spring 2011. \nIn the fall of 2016 the band released Heavy Weather. On this EP the music departs from earlier recordings by incorporating the influence of Elvis Costello-like melodies and harmonies withBennett’s renowned Strummer-sounding vocals. \nJason continues to play with both JB&TR and solo\, touring regionally and the midwest and south and is working on an album of new mateial.

SUMMARY:Dayna Kurtz & Robert Maché with Special Guest Britt Connors
DESCRIPTION:Dayna Kurtz & Robert Maché with Britt Connors live at the Lizard Lounge!\n\n\nEvent is 21+$12/$15 door \nOver the past decade\, the New Jersey born\, now New Orleans resident vocalist/writer/musician/producer has been bestowed with many awards and praises\, including being named the Female Songwriter of the Year by the National Academy of \nSongwriters. Norah Jones and Bonnie Raitt have raved about her in interviews\, and she’s performed on such high-profile radio shows as World Cafe\, Mountain Stage and NPR’s Morning Edition and Tell Me More. She’s toured and opened for the likes of Elvis Costello\, Richard Thompson\, Mavis Staples\, Rufus Wainwright\, B.B. King\, Dr. John\, Richie Havens\, Keren Ann\, Chris Whitley\, and the Blind Boys of Alabama. \nOn her work and friendship with Robert Maché (Continental Drifters\, Steve Wynn) Kurtz says\, “T’ve loved Robert’s playing for such a long time\, and we’ve been friends longer than we’ve been touring partners- he was one of the first musicians to befriend me in New Orleans. \nThat we had such undeniable chemistry has been one of the greater recent gifts of my life\, and I just wanted to document it somehow\, and quite a few people in my life including my label have suggested a live record. I’d been hesitant\, only because there’s only a few live records I listen to with the devotion I’d give a beloved studio record. It’s notoriously really difficult to capture the feeling of being there in the dark experiencing it. Then the challenge of it intrigued me.” \n \n\n\n“When you have a wonderful instrument as supple as Britt’s mellifluous voice\, it is a luxury that allows you to apply it to a wide array of styles. With a writing flair for beautifully lyrical compositions\, it takes the possibilities even further. On her recently released third album\, Longitude\, Britt Connors and the vehicle of her voice roam all over the map.” – Nate Dow\, formerly of the Boston Herald \nSinger/Songwriter Britt Connors was born and raised singing in small-town West Boylston\, MA before taking her studies to Ithaca College in NY. But\, the lure of the talented Boston singer/songwriter scene and the dream that she might try her hand at songwriting (and even someday play at Club Passim) brought her to Boston in 2001. Armed with a guitar she had barely yet learned to play and her many musical influences (the likes of Aimee Mann\, Martin Sexton\, Bonnie Raitt\, Jonatha Brooke\, Eva Cassidy\, KT Tunstall) swirling in her head\, she committed herself to the task. \nIn order to make a living while chasing her musical dreams\, she got certified and eventually became a busy and devoted Pilates instructor. To feed her musical soul\, she did a 4-year stint as the featured vocalist for the 20-piece Compaq Big Band (swing\, jazz\, American Songbook)\, singing to audiences at Sculler’s\, Ryles\, and Regattabar while testing out her first original songs at open mics and starting to collect a loyal following. In 2010 she debuted her first album “The Bad Side of Good” under her maiden name of Britt Sawdon to a sold-out audience at Johnny D’s (formerly) in Somerville\, MA. By the time she released her second album\, “Warmer Season” in 2014 at her dream venue of Club Passim\, she had met and formed her backing band\, “Bourbon Renewal\,” and had written the songs with this new sound in mind – tunes that are alternately rockin’\, country\, sweet\, rootsy\, New-Orleans-street-parade-style\, and just plain fun. With its clapping\, foot-stomping\, and even some whistling\, the record needed its own category\, which they started calling “Y’all-Ternative” music.

SUMMARY:Baker Thomas Band w/ Special Guest Samantha Farrell
DESCRIPTION:A longtime TOAD favorite\, the Baker Thomas Band live at the Lizard Lounge with Samantha Farrell!\n\n\nWhether it’s the infectious grooves\, hooks\, horns\, heartbreakers or anthemic rock finale’s\, Baker Thomas Band invokes a spectrum of high spirits and feeds the soul like a night out with good friends should. \n \nBeginning on stage at TOAD in Cambridge\, MA in 2009\, BTB is an eclectic collection of musicians and good friends getting together to make great music and have a blast! \n \n“After years of being a singer/songwriter/solo bassist\, the one thing I missed the most was the raw energy and power of a band. All my roots are from rock and roll…. being a soloist was a serious departure from that\,” Tom says. Baker Thomas Band or “BTB” was not intended to be as big as it is now. The original line up was drums\, bass\, guitar\, keyboard and trombone. From that humble 5 we’ve grown and now the band is rarely less than 9 or 10 artists with a full horn section and percussion section as well.” BTB has been a blast and hearing my songs interpreted through so many talented artists is a dream come true!” – Tom “The Baker” Bianchi \nBaker Thomas Band \n \n\n\nSamantha Farrell is a Boston-based musician and vocalist whose sound is a gorgeously moody fusion of jazz\, alt R&B and pop. Once described as “the best singer-songwriter you’ve never heard of\,” by NBC Los Angeles\, Farrell has always been understated in her approach to her music career – but\, those who are in the know\, have been quietly dazzled with her unique voice\, rhythmic subtleties and tonal nuance for years. \nSamantha started her career in Los Angeles where she released her first album “Spiritus.” In 2008\, she caught the ear of LeRoi Moore\, the saxophonist of the Dave Matthews Band\, who was in the midst of producing and developing her next album in Charlottesville\, VA when he suddenly passed away\, and in October 2009\, “Luminous” was independently released. Through word of mouth alone\, the album charted No. 7 on the national pop iTunes charts. She has since followed that up with two EPs\, “In Between Stories” (2010) and “Softly Swooning World” (2013)\, with her latest album\, “September Sun” (2016) being voted as one of WUMB radio’s Top 10 albums of 2016. \nHer music has been featured on various major network television shows such as NBC’s “Shark\,” CW’s “Ringer\,” “Privileged\,” “Nikita\,” “One Tree Hill” & “The Tomorrow People.” \nhttps://www.samanthafarrell.com/

SUMMARY:Orchestra Morphine:  Mark Sandman Memorial Concert Early Show
DESCRIPTION:Mark Sandman Memorial Concerts: Gone 25 Years But Not Forgotten\n\n\nDoors at 6:30 \nJuly 3\, 2024 marks the 25th anniversary of Morphine front man Mark Sandman’s death\, felled by a heart attack in the middle of Morphine’s set at the Nel Nome Del Rock festival in Palestrina\, Italy on July 3\, 1999. To honor the anniversary\, a special night of Sandman’s music will be presented at The Lizard Lounge on July 12th by Orchestra Morphine. Entitled “Mark Sandman Memorial Concerts: Gone 25 Years But Not Forgotten”\, two separate shows – early and late – will feature Sandman’s music performed by friends and bandmates\, including original Morphine members Dana Colley and Jerome Deupree. Formed in 1999 in the wake of Sandman’s passing\, Orchestra Morphine also includes members of Hypnosonics: Russ Gershon and Tom Halter (Either/Orchestra) and Mike Rivard (Club d’Elf). Special guests including Laurie Sargent\, Jimmy Ryan and Christian McNeill will interpet songs from the Morphine and Hypnosonics songbooks. \n \nSandman was an inspired songwriter\, conceptualist and multi-instrumentalist\, a fearless\, distinctive creative presence on the Cambridge\, Boston\, national and international music scenes. He rose to national fame in the late 80’s as a member of BMG recording artists Treat Her Right. In the early 90’s he formed Morphine with saxophonist Colley and drummers Deupree and the late Billy Conway\, which became an internationally touring cult band\, earning the praise of club kids\, critics and rock stars. \nNever constrained by one band format\, Sandman created numerous project bands and collaborations. He formed his “secret band”\, Hypnosonics\, in 1984 and the group remained active until his untimely death. A free-wheeling\, minimalist funk band\, the band never released any recordings while Sandman was alive. Finally in 2021\, the label Modern Harmonic released two LP’s of previously unreleased Hypnosonics sessions : Someone Stole My Shoesand Drums Were Beating. To commemorate the 25th anniversary of Sandman’s passing\, the label is releasing a two-disc (and single vinyl) set of more unissued Hypnosonics material: Middle East Rent Control Benefit 1994 / Knitting Factory NYC 1997. This very special event will also serve as the Release Party for the new Hypnosonics releases.

SUMMARY:Abbie Barrett Band/CE Skidmore
DESCRIPTION:Abbie Barrett returns to the Lizard Lounge with special guests CE Skidmore!\n\n\nEvent is 21+ \n$15/$20 door \n \nFueled by a pop-rock sensibility\, Abbie Barrett’s songwriting is unique and unpredictable—but always something you can sing along to. Her music has been featured in Magnet\, American Songwriter\, the Boston Herald\, Vanyaland\, and on CMT’s Cool Album Cuts. In 2015 she received a Boston Music Award for Best Singer-Songwriter. Her band plays regularly in the New England area and has opened for notable acts including the B-52s\, Juliana Hatfield\, The Motels\, Will Dailey\, and Rhett Miller. \nhttps://abbiebarrett.com/ \n\n\nCE Skidmore and the Damn Fine – aka CEDFB – and is four-piece Americana rock act from Boston\, though they’ll tell you that they mostly hang out on bills with the punks. CEDFB includes former members of New England staple acts like OC45\, the Radicals\, Loser’s Circle\, and Live Nude Girls. Band leader CE is a Boston troubadour with New York roots. Her brand of singing\, screaming\, and storytelling has landed her a diverse spate of gigs over the years sharing stages with everyone from Off With Their Heads\, Rhett Miller\, Amigo the Devil\, and even Ralph Nader. Yes\, that Ralph Nader. Weird\, right? CE can tone it down as a loner for the sweet notes but never feels more at home than sharing the stage with her ragtag gang of hooligans. Aria is a longtime Boston staple who cut his teeth as a three-piece punker and bass man for The Radicals. These days you’re most likely to see him as the “international man of misery” fronting his other band of sad songsters\, Coffin Salesman. But it can’t rain all the time. Aria likes to cut it up and shred the occasional major chord as the guitar man for CEDFB. Come for his impressive pedal board\, stay for the face-melting. Derek Rossi is the two-toned low end of this operation. You might recognize him as the hoarse political firebrand who made up half the vocal powerhouse of Boston’s punk standouts\, OC45. OC45 toured the US and Europe throughout the better part of the last decade. They raged the Warped Tour\, broke hearts\, blew minds\, and went through more vans (the vehicle and the shoes) than should be possible. Because Derek is so well seasoned as a frontman and guitar player\, CEDFB likes to make him slightly uncomfortable by sticking him in the back with a bass. We think it humbles him but you’ll probably notice him anyway. There’s truly nothing Matt Trainor can’t do. He’s an accomplished solo artist whose gravel tones are somehow also dulcet. He’s a powerhouse drummer who sits behind the kit for hardcore punkers\, Loser’s Circle. He’s a cat dad. He keeps the pocket on time and delivers the fills to make you quake. \nhttps://www.facebook.com/ceskidmoresings/

SUMMARY:Emergency Group/Blues Dream Box/Psychic Temple/Eamon Fogarty
DESCRIPTION:Come vibe with us at the Emergency Group\, Blues Dream Box\,Psychic Temple and Eamon Fogarty live at the Lizard Lounge! \n\n\nEvent is 21+ \n$12/$15 door \n“Emergency Group swim in the heady tides of prog rock\, psych rock\, and free jazz. These Brooklyn improvisers harness kaleidoscopic reverb and distortion with a creative generosity befitting one of Miles Davis’s electric groups\, creating a contemporary sound that reminds us the label “jam band” wasn’t always cause to shudder.” – Chicago Reader \nhttps://www.instagram.com/emergencygroup_band/ \n\n\nPsychic Temple has been a lot of things: a semi-cult\, a recording collective\, a rock band that plays like a jazz band or the other way around. Band leader Chris Schlarb has also been many things: a truck driver\, a video game composer\, a private investigator\, but he is first and foremost an assembler\, someone whose vision and imaginative spirit intuitively understands how disparate artists might fit together\, forming cosmic pickup bands that bring his visions to life: free jazz freakouts\, fusions of folk\, pop\, rock and roll. \nhttps://www.instagram.com/psychictemple/ \n\n\nThe Blues Dream Box is a trio that plays children’s songs for adults and children\, and adult’s songs for adults. They seamlessly blend a wide variety of non-existent musical genres\, leaving listeners laughing and asking questions they’ve never asked before. The Blues Dream Box has been called\, “the most important band in Boston\,” which may or may not be true. \nhttps://thebluesdreambox.bandcamp.com/album/strip-it-for-parts\n \n\n\nEamon Fogarty is a composer\, songwriter\, singer\, multi-instrumentalist and audio archivist who was born in the state of New Hampshire. Aquarium Drunkard described his 2019 record Blue Values as “a remarkable piece of art-pop\, exhibiting the low slung ease of Tim Buckley’s jazz-rock\, the shambolic grace of Beck\, the progressive grandeur of Scott Walker\, and the mystic yearning of Talk Talk.” He has written for\, recorded\, and performed in a broad range of capacities and contexts\, including numerous folk and rock bands\, (Alex Dupree\, Psychic Temple\, Matt Kivel) choral groups\, free improvisatory ensembles\, puppet theater productions\, and even a surf video or two.

SUMMARY:The Blue Ribbons/Amber Angelina
DESCRIPTION:The Blue Ribbons return to the Lizard Lounge with Amber Angelina\n\n\nEvent is 21+$15/$18 \nJuly 19 at the Lounge will combobulate and gruntle your hearts and minds. Please join us for an evening of high class\, low brow fun with no middlemen. If you so choose you may enjoy the expertly mixed and refreshing cocktails and become ever so slightly and delightfully semi-anti-uninebriated. You will indeed want to keep your wits about you and without you for the concerted disconcertions that will be on display live and in person and on stage\, and allow the music to take you to new levels of the collective sub-unconsciousness. \n“The Blue Ribbons’ latest album\, 2024’s “Forever\, But Not For Long\,” has plenty of pop hooks. Or rather\, it had plenty of them before the band took sledgehammers and scalpels to most of the pretty bits. \n“It took a while to get the bones of some of the tunes down just so we could break them\,” bandleader James Rohr told Herald with a laugh. \nLocal champs the Blue Ribbons are a pop band in the same way that the Beatles or Steely Dan or Television are pop bands in that they like pop but “aren’t too precious about the songs\,” Rohr said. \nThe Ribbons have the Beatles’ artistic reach\, Steely Dan’s jazz chops\, and Television’s orchestrated chaos — and even this doesn’t capture it all (add in some Tom Waits\, a bit of Elvis Costello\, and a pinch of Frank Zappa). Basically\, Rohr and collaborators guitarist Mike Castellana\, bassist Jef Charland\, and drummer Tauras Biskis take catchy tunes and ugly them up without losing the hook. \n“The Blue Ribbons’ latest album\, 2024’s “Forever\, But Not For Long\,” has plenty of pop hooks.

Born and raised in Los Angeles\, Amber Angelina has become a treasured staple in New England\, where she and her first-rate band (Mike Castellana\, Jef Charland\, Nate Logus\, Peter Moore) deliver soulful\, stop-you-dead-in-your-tracks songs that grapple with embracing vulnerabilities\, making peace with our mistakes\, and finding strength in a weary world.

DESCRIPTION: Field Day celebrates their latest release with Tinkertown and Lupo Citta live at the Lizard Lounge July 20th!\n\n\nEvent is 21+ \n$15 adv/$20 door \nField Day formed proverbially\, in a basement\, and unexpectedly\, when its members were well into middle age. Joan Anderman was a neophyte\, having left her longtime post as rock critic at The Boston Globe and set out to become a songwriter. Her former Globe colleague Dan Zedek\, veteran of numerous college bands\, was sitting on a stash of songs written in his head while riding the train to work. The band’s original drummer John Kehe offered his gear-filled basement for weekend song circles. The chemistry was potent. These songs and these songwriters belonged together. With the addition of bassist Paolo Cannizzaro and drummer Chuck Hargreaves\, Field Day has become an unlikely upstart on the Boston club scene\, playing rock music with scrappy hooks\, dreamy harmonies\, and irrepressible spirit. \nhttps://www.fielddaymusic.com/ \n\n\nLed by Boston rock veteran Dean Fisher and vocalist Gabriella Lawrence\, TINKERTOWN plays original rock with nods to several different styles of Americana. Featuring local luminaries Russell Chudnofsky\, Elizabeth Steen\, Joe McMahon and Chris Anzalone. Members of TINKERTOWN have played with such artists as: Natalie Merchant\, Tanya Donelly\, Juliana Hatfield\, Will Dailey\, Lori McKenna\, Billy Bragg\, Tim Gearan\, Jimmy Ryan\, and Roomful of Blues. \n  \n\n\nLupo Città is a new trio with Chris Brokaw on guitar and vocals (long-term Cambridge resident\, solo musician and member of Come\, Codeine\, Martha’s Vineyard Ferries)\, and Boston residents Sarah Black on guitar and bass and Jenn Gori on vocals and drums (both former members Minneapolis garage rock bands).

SUMMARY:Baker Thomas Band w/ Special Guests The 890's
DESCRIPTION:A longtime TOAD favorite\, the Baker Thomas Band live at the Lizard Lounge with The 890s!\n\n\nWhether it’s the infectious grooves\, hooks\, horns\, heartbreakers or anthemic rock finale’s\, Baker Thomas Band invokes a spectrum of high spirits and feeds the soul like a night out with good friends should. \n \nBeginning on stage at TOAD in Cambridge\, MA in 2009\, BTB is an eclectic collection of musicians and good friends getting together to make great music and have a blast! \n \n“After years of being a singer/songwriter/solo bassist\, the one thing I missed the most was the raw energy and power of a band. All my roots are from rock and roll…. being a soloist was a serious departure from that\,” Tom says. Baker Thomas Band or “BTB” was not intended to be as big as it is now. The original line up was drums\, bass\, guitar\, keyboard and trombone. From that humble 5 we’ve grown and now the band is rarely less than 9 or 10 artists with a full horn section and percussion section as well.” BTB has been a blast and hearing my songs interpreted through so many talented artists is a dream come true!” – Tom “The Baker” Bianchi \nBaker Thomas Band \n \n\n\nThe 890s are a funk rock band out of Somerville – originating during 2020\, the majority of the band lived in the same 2 apartment house – creating a basement rehearsal space during the lockdown.The band consists of 8 members and frequent guest performers – including but not limited to drums\, bass\, guitars\, keys\, saxophone and multiple vocalists.In April of 2024 The 890s released their first studio single\, ‘Waiting’ on Spotify and Apple Music.Check them out on IG and YouTube – @The890s
