Four Piece Suit/The Eisenhower Brothers
2025-09-04 20:00 - 23:00
Four Piece Suit return to the Lizard Lounge with The Eisenhower Brothers Sept 4th!

$10/$15 door
Doors 7
Four Piece Suit is “a highball of sea-foam-soaked guitar and squalling tenor sax, shaken—not stirred—with surf tangos, Battista-era mambos, beach blanket boppers, spy music, crime jazz, and movie themes.” The predominantly instrumental group brings humor, romance and a pulsing rhythm to the category-defying range musical styles they reinvent. Heard on soundtracks for Sex and the City and Dexter, Four Piece Suit puts on a sizzling live show.
The sexy, sophisticated, yet tongue-in-cheek music of FOUR PIECE SUIT is frequently featured on the highly acclaimed HBO series Sex and the City, Telemundo, NBC’s Ed, Dexter on CBS, and cable shows such as Keeping Up with the Kardashians, America’s Top Model, Run’s House, and many others. Film work includes Our Lips are Sealed (Olsen Twins), In the Weeds (Molly Ringwald), Stag (HBO films), Psycho Beach Party, Along Came Polly (Jennifer Aniston), and others.

Four Piece Suit

From The early days , when Milt was producing and playing “coloring” guitar on Dwight&Nicole’s first album, the whole crew living in the house over Rear Window Studio, Dwight and Milt noticed they had a natural “weave” when the two guitars played together. That’s a word Keith Richard uses to describe what happens with him and Ron Wood. It’s a sympatico conversation between guitars, finishing each other’s thoughts, creating a whole, just a wee bit larger than the sum of its’ parts. Turns out this is kinda rare to find, and when you do find another player who hears it the same way you do, then you’re onto something. The instruments can be the same, or different, f’rinstance a guitarist and a drummer. It’s a feel thing. Hard to describe, but you know it when you feel it. So for years, these two, now living in different states, still get the weave going whenever they can. We can’t say exactly what’s gonna happen at an Eisenhower Bros. session, uncharted territory, but it’ll probably feel pretty good. Why Eisenhower? Well, Milt’s long run with Four Piece Suit digs deep into influences from the 1950s-60s, somebody called it Eisenhower music. That era has become even rosier, as it represents a decency in public life that has become increasingly elusive. Plus one of the guys is named Dwight, and guess what! …”Ike” had a brother named Milton. And by an even more unlikely auspicious synchronicity, Milton Eisenhower, during his tenure as president of Johns Hopkins University, was a mentor to a fledgling Freshman, playing bass in an Acid Jazz band (before the term had been coined) for strippers on Baltimore’s notorious “Block”… Milt Reder. So full circle. Could be good…ya never know.

The 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.”
“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

Doors 7
For two intimate and wide-ranging nights at the Lizard Lounge, The Suitcase Junket will be trying out new songs in anticipation of going into the recording studio later this fall. Love to have you there to be part of the process. There’ll be plenty of songs from the six previous albums as well, including writing from Lorenz’ last album, The End is New from Renew Records/BMG. Two different nights. Come for one or both.The Suitcase Junket developed in the tension between the grand and the solitary. Grand in imagery, sound, and staging. Solitary in thrift and self-reliance. NPR calls Matt Lorenz a “master of musical imagination.” What instruments he requires, Lorenz builds from scratch and salvage. What parts five players would perform, he performs alone. The spectacle of his one-man set bears comparison to legends of showmanship, brilliance, madness, and invention. While audiences are captivated by that solitary form and the show itself, Lorenz, who homesteads in Western Massachusetts, is most serious about the songs. Over the course of six full-length releases, the latest from Renew Records at BMG, he has written a world into existence, crowded with characters, narratives, voices, imagery, sounds as wide and varied as mountain throat singers and roadhouse juke boxes, plus newsreels of the planet’s destruction and salvage. More songs are coming.
“A living, breathing, throat-singing, road-tested, avant-garde, one-man-band who is in a state of perpetual motion… gutsy, fuzzed-out, groove-laden psych rock.” – National Public Radio
“Now this is the shit I’m talking about, Jack. The Suitcase Junket is a lo-fi, low-tuned, low-down blast of end-times folk blues. It’s crude; it’s magnificent. With a stage set-up that resembles a junkyard foley stage or Fred Sanford’s living room, The Suitcase Junket — one man band leader Matt Lorenz — incants and intones like a cross between Hound Dog Taylor and a Tuvan throat singer who has swallowed a bird. Take the singer-songwriter idiom, give it a low grade fever and a guitar and this is what you get. Captivating, mesmerizing, and gone … real gone.” – Rochester City Newspaper
“Jaw-dropping… It’s the biggest sound I’ve ever heard come from a solo performer. Matt is definitely his own thing and it is something. The live experience is pretty, darn unforgettable.” — Beale Street Caravan
“Bluesy guitar riffs, tenacious melodies and a singing voice both weathered and nimble. You don’t need to witness his physics-defying performance to be captivated; the music stands on its own… astonishing.” – WBUR Boston

Ranging from heartbreak pop to cinematic indie rock, Ciarra Fragale’s music has been described as “atmospheric and aspirational, precisely the sort of emotive sensibility we are collectively yearning for.” Known for her soaring vocals and live looping arrangements, the Hudson Valley-native and Western MA-based musician often draws comparisons to artists like Kate Bush, Beach Fossils, and The Japanese House.

Which Side?: A Protest Music Teach Out
2025-09-17 19:00 - 22:30
A concert and discussion series celebrating and exploring protest music continues September 17th!

Pay What You Want
Doors 7, Music 8

Which 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.
Scheduled to perform on September 17 are Haasan Barclay, David Champagne (Treat Her Right), Ezra Furman, Bob Pernice, Veronica Robles, and Ryan Walsh (Hallelujah the Hills)
They will be backed by the house band, The Paid Protesters, led by Ed Valauskas, Paul Buckley, Magen Tracy, and Mike Oram. Each performer will do a song inspired by Sullivan’s book, and a song of their own.
The 90-minute show will also feature commentary by Sullivan, and a short panel discussion at the end.
The show is scheduled to begin promptly at 8 p.m.
Admission 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.
If 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.
This series is produced by Joyce Linehan, Jon Lupfer, James Sullivan, and Ed Valauskas, with the help of many generous friends. Artwork by Joanne Kaliontzis.

High Tea/Chris Walton/Prateek

High Tea, Chris Walton and Prateek live at the Lizard Lounge Sept 18th at 8pm!

$15 adv/$20 door
Doors 7

High Tea, the folk-punk “story-yelling” duo hailing from Massachusetts, is what happens when a yarn-spinning blues guitarist meets a harmony-obsessed punk. Isabella DeHerdt and Isaac Eliot have come together to fill spaces with homegrown tales and booming vocals. Their songs are ripe with existential angst, weaving narratives of growing up, going wild, and always coming back to the ones you love.

Their previous releases, Scuba Diving, Old Cowboy, and The Wick And The Flame were featured on playlists, radio shows, and publications like The Boston Globe, The Greenfield Recorder (among others). The title track of Old Cowboy led them to be chosen as one of WBUR’s top 4 Massachusetts Tiny Desk entries of 2022. They toured The Wick And The Flame on the West Coast, in New England, and throughout other US States and received write ups from Atwood’s Magazine, The Boston Herald, and more. They were nominated for the New England Music Awards Best Americana Act in 2023, and were selected to perform in the Grassy Hill Emerging Artist Showcase at Falcon Ridge Folk Festival in 2025.

Despite its name, there’s nothing little about High Tea’s upcoming album, A Small Notion. Listeners are led through an inspiringly personal journey, from the disoriented yearning of loss, to an appreciation of the brutal realities of rough living, to tender reflections on past mistakes, to an ultimate acceptance of the all-too-human need for community and care. As ever, the Massachusetts duo is heavily committed to marrying intensely beautiful lyrical storytelling with congruent and energetically contagious instrumental arrangements. Without a doubt, A Small Notion is some of High Tea’s most honest, eye-opening, and cathartic work yet.

Chris is a singer-songwriter who holds down lead guitar/vocals for his 5-piece band, but can easily strip it down and perform solo. Chris can go from getting you into your feels with heartfelt lyrics, to making you groove with funky, soulful beats. His jazz-kissed folk music is inspired by the likes of Cory Wong, early John Mayer, and Tom Misch.www.chriswaltonmusic.com

With his heartbreakingly powerful voice and incisive lyrics, Prateek (pruh – TEEK) has been described as “Not just any guy with a guitar…” by The Boston Globe. When you hear his music, you’ll believe it too. Evolving away from the spare, Dylan-esque sound of his first EP, Prateek’s latest album “‘Til June” adds gritty electric guitars, silvery backing vocals, and a driving rhythm section, all in service of his tightly written, evocative songcraft. Prateek has been a Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk Finalist and has been nominated for Singer-Songwriter of the Year at both the New England Music Awards and the Boston Music Awards. His music has seen rotation all over the radio including Sirius XM, 98.9 WERS, and 92.5 The River. Listen to “‘Til June” now wherever music is sold or streamed.

$10
Rohan Nijhawan is a 35-year-old Cambridge-born poet and activist. Born with a one-of-a-kind, unknown disease, Rohan has experienced the ups and downs in life. Although he has a disability, Rohan does not let that disability define him. He has been skydiving twice in California, mountain biking in Colorado, snorkeling in Jamaica, and most recently, meeting His Holiness, the Dalai Lama. He is a self-described life of the party, as many of his friends can attest to. Rohan gave his friends and family a challenge: describe his poetry in one word. Some of the words that came up were: revolutionary, smooth-truths, insightful, and introspective. Rohan tells a powerful story through his poetry and activism. His biggest influence in his poetry, and, for that matter, his life is The Legend himself, Robert Nesta Marley. Rohan just published his first book titled Tick Tock Tempestuous: Poems of Love, Death, Angst & Humanity in the fall of 2023.

Fully Celebrated Orchestra returns to the Lizard Lounge Sept 24th with I Want A Cat!

$12/$15 door
The Fully Celebrated Orchestra has been a force on the Boston music scene since saxophonist/composer Jim Hobbs and bassist Timo Shanko started playing free jazz at punk rock clubs and street corners in the late 1980s. Still going strong as underground legends over three decades later, FCO also features cornetist Taylor Ho Bynum, drummer Luther Gray, and guitarist Ian Ayers. Their latest album, Sob Story on Relative Pitch Records, was released in February ’24.

I Want a Cat engages in the long forgotten practices of ritualistic shapeshifting and shadow integration. They do it to summon the inner cat in all of us and to merge our exiled selves with the modern machinations of the disembodied robotic society. To maximize efficacy, they keep their sacred tools as diverse as they are loud – fiddle shredding, explosive guitar playing, driving basslines, melodic drumming, longform storytelling, choreographed dance, balls of yarn, and tons of catnip..like, a TON of catnip.
