SUMMARY:Daydream EP Relase/Jay Faires
DESCRIPTION:Daydream celebrates their upcoming EP release with Jay Faires July 18th!\n\n\n$15 adv/$20 door \nDoors 8 \nDaydream is a Roots Jam Band that blends Americana\, soulful songwriting\, and hard-driving Rock n’ Roll with the free improvisation of Jam pioneers like the Grateful Dead and the Allman Brothers. Since 2023\, Daydream has been honing a sound that harkens back to these formative influences\, while carving a new path wholly its own. \nAfter a long period in the Boston and New England jam scene playing covers with various groups\, bandleader David Rubin started Daydream as an outlet for his own original music. David has won over audiences with his prowess and by playing with the some of most recognizable acts in the scene\, including his own band Diamond Blues\, at residencies\, tour dates\, and festivals in the Boston area. He’s played with Members of Hot Tuna\, Ryan Montbleau\, New Riders of the Purple Sage\, Dark Star Orchestra\, Guerilla Toss\, Marble Eyes\, Swimmer\, Brown-Eyed Women\, and Bearly Dead. \nThe band\, along with David Rubin on guitar/vocals\, is rounded out by on-the-rise powerhouses Liam Oulton on bass\, Cal DiGiovanni on keyboard\, and Robbie Parrish on drums/vocals. \nDaydream  \n\n\nBorn in Tennessee\, Jay Faires grew up playing acoustic guitar\, wishing it was an electric – exposed at age 7 to the east TN bluegrass scene via barn and parking lot jams\, bluegrass camp\, and most importantly\, learning fiddle tunes from a man named Randy Terry in a half-demolished baptist church\, Jay was initially hesitant to embrace the acoustic nature of bluegrass instruments. But due to the deep love of playing and performing music with others\, he found his footing as a young flatpicking guitarist. As soon as possible\, electric guitar came into the picture In high school and college\, and his musical journey throughout Tennessee and North Carolina exposed him to what he calls “feel good” music – old gospel songs\, old time tunes\, classic and modern bluegrass\, jazz jams\, Garcia/Hunter and Weir/Barlow tunes\, and songs written by friends he’s made along the way. While he is just now finding his footing as a songwriter\, his solo shows have lately been focused on reciting the songs from long ago – 1800s and early 1900s folk and other roots songs have such beautiful traditions and stories of being passed down through generations\, and with a particular love for the songs and guitar work of Jerry Garcia\, Jay performs a (mostly) acoustic set of tunes that he feels hit a frequency that transcends time. Jay typically brings an acoustic guitar\, a banjo\, and an electric guitar\, and what happens after that – that’s up to the audience.Jay Faires is the creator of Jerry Tone Store\, inspired by his lifetime love of the sound and tone of Jerry Garcia. His dad\, Eric\, was a taper from 1981-1983 – Grateful Dead music playing throughout the house as a kid left a lasting impact on his musical tastes and more. The first song Jay ever heard was “I Will Take You Home” off the “Built to Last” album on the way home from the hospital\, thanks to his deadhead father. Through his work with Jerry Tone Store\, Jay modifies people’s guitars to help them recreate the magic that Jerry felt when he played onstage.Check out his website here! https://jerrytonestore.com

SUMMARY:Ohm Foam/Quantum Moon
DESCRIPTION:Ohm Foam returns to  the Lizard Lounge July 17th with Quantum Moon!\n\n\nDoors 7 \n$15/$20 door  \nOhm foam is psych rock from the cosmos\, fed through three humans from Boston\, MA.“Their music ranges from heavy progressive rock to chill\, groovy psychedelic\, and they list Khruangbin\, early Pink Floyd\, and Radiohead as influences. With hard rock-inspired riffs and expansive soundscapes constructed from guitar loops\, Ohm Foam’s music invites you to climb aboard and hang on for the journey.” – Jeff Williams\, Sound of Boston \n \nOhm Foam  \n\n\n“Quantum Moon\, a four piece outfit headed by local trumpeter Matt Kelly\, isn’t easily pinned to a genre. Fusing elements of free jazz\, funk\, rock\, and more the band navigates deep waters and celestial planes while keeping a pulsing undercurrent of steady groove. The musicians set up a delicate interplay which leads to surprising and spontaneous moments which make each show unique. Keep an eye out and your ears open and you might get pulled into their orbit.” \n \nQuantum Moon

SUMMARY:Invincible Casuals/Sidewalk Driver
DESCRIPTION:The Invincible Casuals and Sidewalk Driver live at the Lizard Lounge July 12th at 9pm!\n\n\n$15 adv/$20 door \nDoors 7 \nFounded by Chandler Travis\, Steve Shook\, and Rikki Bates in 1980\, the Incredible Casuals were something of a New England legend until they disbanded in 2013. Their first full-length album\, “That’s That”\, was released on England’s Demon label in 1986 and on Rounder in the U.S. the following year\, and was followed by five more “official” full-length releases\, along with a score of homemade efforts and a 2007 “Best Of” collection\, and toured extensively in the U.S.\, Europe\, and in Japan\, where many of their albums have been re-released. \nAfter about ten years of turning down requests to regroup\, Travis\, Bates\, and longtime Casual Steve “Woo Woo” Wood got back together in the summer of 2023\, and enjoyed reviving their repertoire so much that they decided it might be something that somehow really still needs doing\, and voila\, the Invincible Casuals were (re-)born\, much to the delight of a surprisingly large flock of fans who never gave up (including a goodly throng of “Casualties” who never missed a Sunday of their thirty-plus year run at the Wellfleet Beachcomber\, their home bar on Cape Cod.) \n \n“The Casuals make a vintage guitar-driven noise laced with cool Brit-pop hooks and harmonies not unlike NRBQ but with a hint of Replacements-style corrosion…”– David Fricke\, Rolling Stone \nThis ravishing record  is a stark reminder of rock’s basic power and simple pleasures. Boy\, do we need it now!”– David Hiltbrand\, People \n \n \nInvincible Casuals \n\n\nThe music of Sidewalk Driver is high energy\, highly-infectious\, hook-driven\, Rock with a capital ‘R.’ The sound is modern but the heart of the band seems to be more in line with 1970s rock culture… the Bowies and the Belushis of the world. Lead singer Tad McKitterick’s voice has power and clarity\, is expressive without falling off the pitch and is forceful without losing subtle moments. Guitarists Kate Murdoch and Jared Egan seamlessly weave crunchy rhythms with soaring solos while bassist Jonn Smith and drummer A.J. Locke hold down the bottom end. The songs always come with some odd bent but not one that repels; rather\, they welcome you to join in the celebration like a carnival barker hyping a freak show. \nSidewalk Driver has provided direct support for an eclectic blend of national acts—including Bon Jovi\, The B-52s\, Spacehog\, Twenty One Pilots\, Andrew W.K.\, and Electric Six—winning over a wide variety of audiences with each performance by injecting humor and fun into their high-octane rock show. \n \nSidewalk Driver

SUMMARY:The Mail Band/The Quahogs/Wisterio
DESCRIPTION:The Mail Band\, the Quahogs and Wisterio  live at the Lizard Lounge July 11th at 9pm.\n\n\n$15 adv/$20 door \nDoors at 7 \nThe Mail emerged from the vibrant music scene of Boston in 2016\, born out of a shared passion for sonic experimentation and storytelling. Composed of members Jeremy Van Cleave\, Joe Campbell\, Nathaniel Diamond-Jones\, Matt Hines\, and Curtis Hartshorn\, this ensemble quickly made waves with their distinct blend of folk rock and alternative influences. \nDriven by a mutual desire to carve out their own musical niche\, The Mail’s sound is characterized by Jeremy’s introspective lyrics\, Curtis’s unique drumming\, Matt’s creative chord voicings\, Joe’s deep bass pocket\, and Nathaniel’s distinctive approach to fiddle. Together\, they create a sonic landscape that is both emotive and immersive\, weaving together layers of sound to evoke a range of emotions. \nSince their formation\, The Mail has been a fixture in Boston’s music scene\, captivating audiences with their electrifying live performances and dynamic stage presence. Their debut album\, “Lights On\,” released in 2018\, received widespread acclaim for its poignant lyricism and infectious melodies. \nWith each release\, The Mail continues to push the boundaries of alternative music\, exploring new sonic territories while staying true to their roots. As they embark on their musical journey\, The Mail invites listeners to join them on a voyage of self-discovery and sonic exploration. \nThe Mail Band \n\n\nThe Quahogs are DelMonico on vocals and guitar\, Steve Donovan on lead guitar\, Mike Murdock on the drums and Joe Princepe on bass. “It’s difficult to define a band like The Quahogs by a genre\,” the band writes today. (We’re) equal parts tender and heavy rock.” \n“Providence rock act The Quahogs walk a fine line between a variety of styles. Some of their songs showcase the sensibility and intimacy often associated with folk. Some have a rough and rowdy garage rock vibe. Still others have a country twang.”-Rob Duguay\, Warwick Beacon \nThe Quahogs

SUMMARY:Which Side: A Protest Music Teach Out
DESCRIPTION:A concert and discussion series celebrating and exploring protest music beginning July 9th!\n\n\nPay What You Want \nDoors 7\, Music 8 \nWhich Side?: A Protest Music Teach-Out is a concert and discussion series celebrating and exploring protest music. The events will use James Sullivan’s book\, Which Side Are You On?: 20th Century American History in 100 Protest Songs\, as a starting point for the presentation of songs that ask listeners to consider how music gives voice to resistance\, advocacy\, and change. While the series will anchor itself to the book\, collaborators will also contribute 21st-century music\, both originals and covers. \nThe lineup for July 9 includes Jon Butcher\, Joe Gittleman\, Tom Jordan\, Jesse Ahearn \, Robin Lane with Adam Sherman\, and Jen Trynin. They will be backed by the Which Side house band\, called The Paid Protesters\, led by Ed Valauskas\, with Anthony Kaczynski\, Paul Buckley and others. The 90-minute show will also feature commentary by Sullivan\, and a short panel discussion at the end. \nThe show is scheduled to begin promptly at 8 p.m. \nAdmission is pay-what-you-want\, with all proceeds going to the musicians and other direct expenses. Tickets can be reserved\, but a reservation does not guarantee entry unless you are in the room by 7:30 p.m. If there are people waiting for entry\, reservations will be released starting at that time. \nIf there are any profits after workers are paid\, they will be donated to an appropriate non-profit fighting for intellectual freedom in our nation’s courts. \nThis series is produced by Joyce Linehan\, Jon Lupfer\, James Sullivan\, and Ed Valauskas\, with the help of many generous friends.

SUMMARY:Audrey Pearl/Julia Randal/Alex Hoskyns
DESCRIPTION:Audrey Pearl\, Julia Randal and Alex Hoskyns live at the Lizard Lounge July 5th!\n\n\n$15 adv/$20 door  \nDoors at 8  \n \nAudrey Pearl writes songs the same way she moves through life- with her eyes wide open and her heart on her sleeve. Drawing upon her upbringing in the Green Mountains of Vermont\, the Berklee-graduate’s deeply nostalgic writing highlights her honey-toned vocals and knack for vivid\, haunting imagery. \n \nAudrey’s EP Long Term Plans\, which was released in July 2024\, showcases her range as a writer and musician- deftly weaving together tender indie folk\, jangly alt rock\, and lush bedroom pop. While her inventive songwriting and captivating performances have earned comparisons to acclaimed artists such as Phoebe Bridgers\, Japanese Breakfast\, and Adrianne Lenker\, Audrey is carving out a space all her own as a formidable writer\, performer\, and storyteller in the indie scene. \n \nhttps://audreypearlmusic.com/ \n\n\nA few years ago while scrolling on social media\, singer-songwriter Julia Randall came across a filter called “What niche musical subgenre are you?” On the third or fourth try\, she got “forest elf jazz.” As it happens\, that result encapsulates Julia’s music perfectly. \nHer sound is whimsical and nostalgic\, drawing on jazz\, soul\, and folk traditions and showcasing her soothing\, soaring vocals. Although she is usually seated at the piano or plucking a six-stringed ukulele\, Julia’s primary instrument is her pen: her award-winning songwriting tackles big\, often existential questions with razor-sharp clarity and wit. \nOn May 2nd she released her debut album\, Rom-Com Industrial Complex\, which explores the rift between the expectations and reality of romance across 14 clever and lushly orchestrated tracks. Julia is based in Burlington\, Vermont. \n \nhttps://www.instagram.com/juliarandallmusic/ \n\n\nAlex Hoskyns blends controlled smokey vocal textures with lyrical storytelling to express love\, loss\, and other problems faced throughout her young life. Inspired vocally by the soul of Janis Joplin\, Ray Charles\, Susan Tedeschi\, and Nina Simone\, she can appreciate a good sultry folk ballad just as much as a screaming funk song with full horns. \nThis singer songwriter from Boston\, Massachusetts performs her original music in venues and festivals around boston\, in addition to soloing with the following notable groups: Berklee Tower Of Power Ensemble\, Berkalit\, Point of Departure\, Berklee Singers Night\, Les Arts Berklee Showcase at Palaude les Arts (Val Spain). \n \nhttps://www.alexhoskyns.com/

Since his debut in 2006\, Baldrachi has built an impressive catalog\, releasing four albums\, two EPs\, and numerous singles\, showing his dedication to crafting a distinctive sound. His forthcoming album\, “Nothing’s Promised\,” explores the many of the influences that have shaped his music. The album is packed with infectious hooks\, introspective lyrics\, and a dynamic band that highlights his songwriting. \nPeter Baldrachi \n \n\n\n“…it would be a mistake to peg him as merely a sum of those who came before him” \n– No Depression \n“His roots-based music and tremendous sense of melody grab your attention; his perceptive and intelligent lyrics give his songs exceptional depth.” \n– Twangville \n“…a terrific\, endlessly listenable album that in a perfect world – or even an imperfect one – deserves to make Thibaud a star.” \n– The Boston Herald \nTodd Thibaud is a Vermont born\, Boston based Singer-Songwriter who’s songs are a slice of what life is really like…the pains and pleasures\, love lost and life reborn. Using songwriters like Elvis Costello\, Neil Finn\, Johnny Cash and John Hiatt for inspiration\, Thibaud has built a sound that is entirely his own. His music is meshed with elements of Americana\, Folk\, Country and Roots Pop Rock\, making it seem at once familiar and new. After fronting his band\, “Courage Brothers” and releasing two independent records in the early ‘90’s (Something Strong & Wood)\, Thibaud went solo and recorded two critically lauded albums for Doolittle Records (now New West Records)\, 1997’s “Favorite Waste of Time” (produced by Bostonian musician Kevin Salem) and 1999’s “Little Mystery” (Co-produced with Jim Scott: Wilco\, Crowded House\, Kathleen Edwards).

You’ve probably heard Todd even if you haven’t listened to one of his albums or attended his buoyant\, high-energy shows. His songs are regularly featured on TV\, where ESPN especially has taken Todd’s straight and true art to heart\, and most recently on episodes of NCIS and Justified. His work has also appeared in films\, such as John Favreau’s Love & Sex. Plus\, the Boston-area singer and picker has been played on Americana radio since the early ‘90s. Thibaud’s most recent album\, “Hill West” (Produced by Ed Valauskas\, Juliana Hatfield\, Gravel Pit)\, was released in the spring of 2019. His project\, Water and Sand\, with fellow singer/songwriter\, Kim Taylor\, released their debut album in early 2016\, their follow up\, “Catching Light” in 2019\, and their most recent\, “City Crows” in 2023. He tours regularly throughout Europe in both full band and acoustic formats\, and performs regionally at home in the U.S. Check out Todd’s album “Waterfall” on SoundCloud: \nhttps://soundcloud.com/toddthibaud/sets/waterfall

SUMMARY:The Blue Ribbons/Miriam
DESCRIPTION:The Blue Ribbons return to the Lizard Lounge June 28th with Miriam!\n\n\n$15/$20 \nDoors 8 \n \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. \nJed Gottleib – Boston Herald \n \nThe Blue Ribbons  \nIn 2009\, when multi-award-winning singer-songwriters Amy Fairchild and Carla Ryder decided to combine their voices and join forces to start a band\, MIRIAM was born. They recruited the coveted multi-instrumentalist and songwriter\, Andy Santospago\, whose music traverses a long and winding road from classical\, jazz\, acoustic finger style\, Latin\, bluegrass and folk\, and rock. Over the next few years\, they would pluck up talented drummer about town Ian McMillan and monster bass player Jeff St. Pierre. The group garnered a loyal following by playing a monthly residency the last Tuesday of each month at Toad in Porter Square (Cambridge\, MA) cultivating a sound and creating true alchemy among them. They have been described as a rollickin’ blend of Americana-infused countrified roots-rock with the focus on the tight harmonies\, catchy songs and superb playing….at times playful\, at times moody. Mostly it’s boot-stompin\,’ lead vocal swappin’\, ass-kickin’ fun. Steve Morse\, former critic of 30 years at The Boston Globe says\, ” Music for the sheer pleasure of it… effervescent harmonies and melodic nirvana.” \nMiriam

SUMMARY:Jeremy Moses Curtis/Erik Koskinen
DESCRIPTION:Jeremy Moses Curtis returns to the Lizard Lounge with Erik Koskinen and his trio June 27th!\n\n\n$20/$25 door \nDoors 8 \n \nJeremy Moses Curtis or “Moses” is probably more known for his work as a bassist working alongside artists as diverse as Booker T\, Twinemen\, Jeffrey Foucault\, Kris Delmhorst\, Caitlin Canty\, Chris Smither\, and composer for the instrumental band Thank God For Science. His latest release Midlife Chrysler (due 10/6/2023 on Blueblade Records) is a collection of observations\, reflections\, opinions\, and love letters to the times traveled through and to the people loved along the way through two and a half decades on the road. \n \nJeremy Moses Curtis \n\n\n  Erik Koskinen is an American singer-songwriter\,  multi-instrumentalist and producer\, whose music is not categorized by sub-genres.  Stylistically he is on his own while heavily influenced by American roots music. The rhythmic integrity and musical tone is as important as the lyrical content and the artistic intent.  Koskinen has reverently entered the anthology of uniquely crafted wry songs with the likes of Woody Guthrie and Ry Cooder while speaking as plainly as your neighbor. The Minneapolis Star Tribune calls Koskinen “the real deal” and “The best country songwriter in Minnesota” \nEirk Koskinen
