Unlikened to anything in the known galaxy, the band continues its mission of delivering their own brand of 'Rock-ET Soul' -- an electrifying blend of the enchantment of Al Green, the guitar wizardry of Jimi Hendrix, the spellbinding songwriting of Jim Croce, and the rock grandeur of Grand Funk Railroad and Led Zeppelin -- to the people of Earth.

Fri Apr 30 Jamantics
Hailing from Concord, New Hampshire, JamAntics is a five-piece band that combines elements of rock, funk, pop and even bluegrass-- then jams it out. The members bring varied musical backgrounds into the mix, creating a unique sound. Lead singer Masceo spent years as a singer/songwriter before moving behind the drums, vacating the position of rhythm guitarist for Lucas Gallo who occasionally steps forward to act as lead singer on his own songs. Eric Reingold holds down the bass line while helping Masceo in the percussion section with beat-boxing or a hand-drum. Award-winning Celtic fiddler Jordan Tirrell-Wysocki puts on his funk hat to trade solos and harmonize melodies with Freeland Hubbard, lefty lead-guitarist of considerable prowess who, like Lucas, occasionally serves as lead singer on his own compositions.

Music and Events

Sat May 01 Ameranouche
The Ameranouche Trio features guitarists Richard Sheppard, Ryan Flaherty and bassist Xar Adelberg. The nationally acclaimed Gypsy Jazz ensemble plays acoustic hot jazz, both original compositions and unique arrangements by American and Gypsy songwriters. The music is universal and reaches diverse audiences worldwide. Ameranouche performances are patterned with virtuosity, eclecticity and inspiring energy. Audiences are taken aback by Sheppard’s brillant guitar work and the groups ceaseless musicianship.

Fri May 07 The Toughcats
The Toughcats tour New England regularly. They have also made multiple national tours playing music and film festivals, theaters, bars, boats, and fields, and everything in between. They have shared the bill with bands such as Kathy Mattea, Hot Buttered Rum, The Mammals, Tony Trischka, Noam Pikelny, The Rowan Brothers, Sam Bush, The Avett Brothers, The Red Stick Ramblers, and many more. They have been featured on NPR’s All Songs Considered, and there music has been used on NPR’s All Things Considered. They have performed and recorded multiple film sound tracks, and also performed in Milkman The Ballet, a special live performance of Deerhoof’s Milk Man, which was attended by the band itself and garnered international attention from Pitchfork, Billboard, and music lovers alike. (And, apparently, fans of 3rd grade ballet.) The Toughcats play a mean live show. They take the stage and reel off a blistering string of short tunes that leave you breathless. Then they launch into a slow, sweet one, like “Thunderbird” that gives you just a second to catch your breath. Before you know it, that slow, sweet song gets quicker and hotter, and they’re back to their breakneck pace again. Jake Greenlaw’s feverish drumming and palpable energy draw justified comparisons to Animal. Joe Nelson, along with his driving rhythm guitar and effortless leads, has a voice that’s equal parts Tom Waits and Beck. And Colin Gulley is equally clever on banjo or mandolin, polishing it all to a bluegrassy sheen.
