SUMMARY:Spiritual Cramp
DESCRIPTION:  \nSpiritual Cramp aren’t looking for a soapbox. The San Francisco-born punk experimentalists are here to flash a big smile\, flip you off\, deliver a burst of musical adrenaline\, and then keep on walking. “But at the same time\, that’s something that I’m working on\,” vocalist Michael Bingham knowingly grins. And on their upcoming sophomore album\, RUDE (due TK via Blue Grape Music)\, Spiritual Cramp discover a newfound balance between that impish cheekiness\, emotional vulnerability\, and rabid energy. “When you focus on yourself and the people around you\, you can keep your side of the street clean\,” Bingham says. “And when I see the opposite of that\, I get kind of offended\, which is what a lot of these songs are about.” \n  \nFrom the very first seconds of RUDE’s opening track “I’m an Anarchist”\, Spiritual Cramp make it clear what their side of the street is. The record is framed with the tuning of an FM dial and the voice of DJ Crash (played by percussionist Jose Luna)\, introducing Wild 87 Radio and the “San Francisco rude boy sound.” The fictitious radio station takes its name from the band’s original moniker prior to renaming themselves after a song by southern California rockers Christian Death\, and recurs on the album as a way to keep the band grounded in their SF roots. “My foundation is in San Francisco\, California\, and from there I can go anywhere and be who I am\,” Bingham says. The song that follows the radio intro similarly grounds listeners in the Spiritual Cramp musical language\, Bingham delivering tongue-in-cheek sloganeering (“I’m an anarchist\, so leave me alone”) over clap-along sunshine punk. \n  \nWhile Spiritual Cramp have perfected their kaleidoscopic take on rock over nearly a decade\, the gleeful RUDE marks the start of a new era for the band. Bingham and bassist Mike Fenton have been the band’s constants in that time—not to mention having worked on other projects together prior—and wrote the majority of Spiritual Cramp’s songs on their own across a series of lineup changes. But after a seemingly endless tour in support of their self-titled 2023 debut\, their new lineup of Bingham\, Fenton\, percussionist Luna\, guitarists Nate Punty and Orville Neeley III\, and drummer Julian Smith gelled to the point that the co-founders decided to bring everyone into the room for the writing process. “It really helped give color and energy to the whole record\,” Fenton says. The results are nothing short of ecstatic\, bounding between new wave burn\, indie rock swagger\, old-school punk\, and even dub and hip-hop flourishes. \n  \nThe thumping rhythm and chunky guitar riffs of album highlight “At My Funeral” showcase that evolved fusion\, as well as Bingham’s trademark self-deprecating sense of humor. “At my funeral/ Nobody came/ Everybody knew/ My shit was lame\,” he deadpans\, as Punty and Neely’s guitars ping-pong to each headphone. The following track\, “Automatic”\, utilizes similarly muscly\, Clash-indebted guitars\, though this time pairs a neon dance punk swagger with a Killers-esque soaring chorus.  \n  \nAnother major factor in RUDE’s amplified genre experimentation came in the studio\, with Spiritual Cramp working with a producer for the first time. After chatting with a few different potential collaborators\, the band were passed Grammy-winning producer John Congleton’s information. “I didn’t know if it would be a good fit. I’m a high-intensity guy and he seems pretty mellow\,” Bingham says. “I like working with other insane people\, but I learned he’s crazy in the studio. When we met he started talking about Stiff Little Fingers\, the Stranglers\, and Public Enemy\, and I know he’s done everything from indie rock to hip-hop. We’re basically a ‘70s punk band inspired by rap\, so it was a perfect match.” \n  \nThat collision is exemplified in the giddy\, DEVO-addled “Young Offenders”\, where pulsing electronics and a stuttery bridge underpin a fist-pumping punk chorus. “Expensive clothes/ Explosive fights/ There’s no better place everything will be just fine/ Just another warm San Francisco night/ Where everyday is the best day of my life\,” Bingham rahs\, like a sarcastic anthem for yuppie expansion. Throughout RUDE\, the tracks feel dense and lush\, though always full of light and life. “We got crazy in the studio this time\,” Fenton says. \n  \nPerhaps the wildest surprise\, though\, comes via guest vocals from a collaborator that might be unexpected for many listeners: Sharon Van Etten. Bingham and his wife became friends with the indie singer-songwriter after their move to Los Angeles\, and the unlikely pairing sounds absolutely fated on the slow-burning “You’ve Got My Number”. Bingham and Van Etten trade lines in the smoky verses\, building to a thunderous blend of staccato vocals and thumping percussion at the chorus. “You’ve got my number/ But you won’t call me\,” they sigh on the deftly heartbroken track\, before transforming some wordless “ba da ba” into the musical equivalent of putting on a brave face after a breakup. \n  \n“People sometimes think of us as ‘just’ a punk band\, but we love indie rock and were so honored Sharon would sing on one of our songs\,” Bingham says. “For whatever reason I thought a reggae song with a big rock chorus would be perfect for her\, and she sounds incredible.” And for the Spiritual Cramp singer\, it’s more than just vocal admiration. “I’ve always said I want to be the Sharon Van Etten of punk\,” he smiles. “She’s the coolest\, and it’s all about doing things thoughtfully and with integrity instead of being some famous celebrity.” \n  \nWhether it’s on the riotously fun self-loathing anthem “I Hate the Way That I Look” or the delightfully dubby “Violence in the Supermarket”\, it’s clear not only that Spiritual Cramp are following that honest artistic path\, but they’re doing so by constantly pushing the boundaries of their musical world. “Sometimes we’d write something and everyone in the room would think it was totally nuts\,” Fenton laughs. “And then we’d finish it\, and it was great to realize we weren’t crazy.” And while they continue evolving\, the witty\, fun-loving heart of Spiritual Cramp keeps the engine running. “As a band\, we have a cool thing that people like\, but we can always get better\,” Bingham says. “People who listen know where we stand\, and this record paints a picture of what it feels like to be in Spiritual Cramp.”

SUMMARY:Live Blues & Roots Music Returns to Harvard Square: Wednesday Nights @ The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar
DESCRIPTION:The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar and The Barrett Anderson Band are excited to announce a new weekly series\, Blues & Roots Wednesdays\, bringing live music back home to historic Harvard Square. \n“Cambridge\, our fair city\, and I share deep roots\, and I’m thrilled to find a new musical home at The Sea Hag\,” says Massachusetts-based singer/guitarist\, Barrett Anderson.  “Good music and good food are two of our most basic\, fundamental needs\,” he continues\, “What great joy they give us.  I am so happy to revel in that every Wednesday night with my dearest musical friends\, and Kari and her incredible team at The Sea Hag.  We go way back together\, and I can’t imagine all the fun we have ahead.” \nIndeed\, Anderson has strong connections to this scene.  He remembers: “My first professional experience came when I was 15\, backing up Muddy Waters’ band alums Pinetop Perkins and Bob Margolin at the original House of Blues on Winthrop Street.  A few months after that I began busking\, you’d often find me in Brattle Square or by the pit.  This would have been mid/late 90s.”  While still a teen\, Anderson was a member of The Monster Mike Welch Band and Ronnie Earl & The Broadcasters (“Ronnie was my guitar hero.  Then he was my teacher\, then my boss.  Now he’s my musical Father\,” Anderson says)\, before eventually starting The Barrett Anderson Band in 2007. \nAnderson won a Boston Music Award (2013 Blues Artist of the Year)\, was on the Billboard charts (2020’s live album Hynoboogie spent 3 weeks on the Billboard Blues Album chart\, peaking at #6)\, and was nominated for a Blues Music Award (2023 Band of the Year with Anthony Geraci & The Boston Blues All-Stars)\, all the while playing nationally\, internationally\, and locally in Cambridge and the greater Boston area. \nIn addition to the musical roots\, long-time locals may recognize Anderson from a decade serving tables and bartending at The Sea Hag’s sister establishment\, Grendel’s Den\, or from Abodeon\, the mid-century modern shop started by his family. \nMusic starts every Wednesday at 6:30 at The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar\, 49 Mt Auburn St\, and there’s no cover.  “We start while people are dining\,” Anderson states.  “It forces us to play dynamically\, dig deep\, and explore the space\, creating music that doesn’t demand attention but rewards it.”  He adds with a grin “We do get to turn up and demand attention too\, we just have to time it right.” \nJoining Anderson (vocals and guitar) are Paul Loranger (upright and electric bass)\, and Joey Pafumi (drums and percussion).  “This is the core of The Barrett Anderson Band\,” Anderson explains.  “The full band has wonderful additional musicians\, but for this gig tight and light was right.  This gives us the flexibility to learn material fast and improvise easily on the spot\, allowing for regular guests and specially themed evenings.  We’re making sure that each week is rewarding and unique.” \nThe Barrett Anderson Band are digging deep into their Cambridge roots for the first string of shows\, featuring local roots rock king Dennis Brennan as a special guest. \nBlues & Roots Wednesdays at The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar\n49 Mt Auburn St\, Cambridge MA 02139\nMusic starts @ 6:30\nWednesday nights \n  \nWhat critics say about Barrett Anderson \nFrom Jay Clestowski\, Disciples of Sound: “Barrett Anderson continues to carry the torch that J. Geils left behind…  HypnoBoogie demonstrates that some of the best grooves come out of the ‘dirty water’ and that’s where they belong.” \nFrom JD Nash\, American Blues Scene: “This Bean Town foursome packs enough raw energy on stage to power the whole of New England.” \nFrom Chris Spector\, Midwest Record: “Anderson has the chops and spark to make a real statement his own way.  Hot stuff.” \nFrom Jay Miller\, The Patriot Ledger: “HypnoBoogie… is the kind of refreshingly vibrant\, genre-crossing album that is a throwback to the days when rock ‘n’ roll acknowledged its roots in blues\, but ventured wherever the spirit took it.” \nWhat critics say about The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar \nFrom Sheryl Julian\, Boston Globe: “Harvard Square’s Sea Hag is the little sister to Grendel’s Den…” \nFrom Kara Baskin\, Boston Globe: “The team behind Grendel’s Den in Harvard Square has opened Sea Hag\, replacing The Bouthouse.  Wash ashore for fish and chips\, Jamaican beef patties\, arancini\, crab dip\, raw bar delights\, and muffins…” \nFrom Boston Restaurant Talk: “The Sea Hag opens in the former Boathouse space in Harvard Square.” \nFrom Marc Levy and Rónán Fitzgerald: “Grendel’s Den owner Kari Kuelzer is expanding in Harvard Square\, taking over the Boathouse location to open The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar.” \nwww.barrettandersonband.com\nwww.seahag02138.com

SUMMARY:Benjamin Franklin\, Frankenstein\, and the Age of Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Ask anyone why Benjamin Franklin is famous and they will likely mention his role in the American Revolution. Yet Franklin’s celebrity began with his science. Decades before independence\, Immanuel Kant hailed him as “the Modern Prometheus\,” a bold defier of nature whose scientific experiments made him an international star and helped launch his political career. In this lecture\, Joyce Chaplin\, author of The Franklin Stove: An Unintended American Revolution (Farrar\, Straus and Giroux\, 2025)\, traces Franklin’s scientific pursuits\, showing the central role of science in Franklin’s life—and in the revolutionary era more broadly. She will also discuss how Franklin’s reputation lived on in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein; or\, The Modern Prometheus (1818)\, a powerful meditation on the rewards and risks of scientific ambition. \nThis lecture is presented to mark the 250th Anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence.

SUMMARY:Nailed Shut MA
DESCRIPTION:NAILED SHUT MA consistently brings a unique raw energy and thoughtful disorder to each and every performance\, delivering a sonic force that pushes New England’s hardcore/deathcore scene to the next level. With punishing yet unconventional vocals\, Asher Thomas creates depictions of bodily and psychological horror through lyricism centered around mental health awareness\, while the band reflects these themes musically through brutal riffs\, tight drum grooves and a gut-wrenching low end. Idioteq Alternative Music says the band’s sound “promises to be a surreal journey…delving into the darkest corners of the human experience.”  In 2023\, the band released their long awaited debut EP\, ‘LUST IN THE END’\, which they have since performed in many iconic venues across the northeast as well as 2024’s Inkcarceration Festival. The band has studied under David Marvuglio (Ice Nine Kills)\, Grammy award winner Paul T. Riddle (Marshall Tucker Band and The Allman Brothers Band)\, and has worked alongside Extreme Vocal Institute’s esteemed vocal coach David Benites.  They have shared the stage with inspiring bands such as All Shall Perish\, Acacia Strain\, Peeling Flesh\, Kaonashi\, and many more. Recently the band began working alongside Unchained Management to further the project’s endeavors. Their energetic performances are sure to knock the wind out of you – Nailed Shut is here and they’re here to wreak havoc.

SUMMARY:The Greyboy Allstars
DESCRIPTION:For over three decades\, The Greyboy Allstars have been a cornerstone of American groove music—merging jazz\, soul\, and funk with the swagger of hip-hop and the improvisational freedom of the avant-garde. Since their early days in the 1990s San Diego scene\, the Allstars have created a sound all their own: West Coast Boogaloo\, named after their landmark debut album with funk icon Fred Wesley. That record\, West Coast Boogaloo (1994)\, was a defining statement—deep\, danceable\, and drenched in soul—and helped spark the West Coast’s acid jazz and funk revival. Their follow-up\, A Town Called Earth\, expanded the band’s scope\, layering cosmic jazz influences and cinematic textures onto their already formidable funk foundation. Both albums remain touchstones of modern groove music—sampled\, revered\, and referenced by DJs\, beatmakers\, and next-generation jazz artists the world over. \nYet The Greyboy Allstars have never been content to rest on legacy. In an era where jazz is being redefined by young innovators across London\, New York\, and Los Angeles\, the Allstars remain essential listening—a band that helped build the house and is still remodeling it from the inside. Their latest release\, Grab Bag: 2007–2023\, is a powerful reminder that this group is not only active\, but also evolving. A compilation of previously unreleased tracks\, deep cuts\, and left-field gems recorded over the past 15 years\, Grab Bag is both a treasure trove for longtime fans and a perfect entry point for new listeners. From tight rhythm workouts to spacey organ-fueled explorations\, the album proves that the band is as inspired and locked-in as ever—still funky\, still fearless\, and still pushing boundaries. \nEach member of The Greyboy Allstars brings a distinct voice and towering resume\, yet together they form a rare musical ecosystem built on trust\, taste\, and telepathy. Saxophonist and flutist Karl Denson is a relentless creative force whose fiery playing blends the soul-jazz tradition of Sonny Rollins with the raw funk of Maceo Parker. As the leader of his own Tiny Universe and longtime touring member of The Rolling Stones\, Denson has become one of the most recognizable horn players in modern music. Keyboardist Robert Walter\, a titan of the Hammond B3\, brings deep grooves\, lush harmonies\, and fearless improvisation. His solo records and collaborations have made him a cult favorite across funk and jazz scenes worldwide. Guitarist Michael Andrews\, also known as Elgin Park\, is the Allstars’ melodic anchor\, weaving tasteful lines inspired by Grant Green and Wes Montgomery. As a celebrated film composer (Donnie Darko\, Pharrel’s Piece by Piece)\, his work transcends genres—but his guitar voice in the band is unmistakable and vital. On bass\, Chris Stillwell delivers the unsung magic that makes the band swing—his lines are fluid\, funky\, and always in the pocket\, fusing Motown depth with California cool. Rounding out the rhythm section\, drummer Aaron Redfield brings nuance\, muscle\, and rhythmic command. Whether locking in a tight breakbeat or opening up the kit for sprawling jazz interplay\, Redfield is the heartbeat of the band’s evolving sound. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs they continue to tour and record\, The Greyboy Allstars remain one of the most exciting live bands on the planet—schooled in tradition but never bound by it. Their music nods to legends like Ahmad Jamal\, Wayne Shorter\, Thelonious Monk\, and Eddie Harris\, while sounding utterly timeless and unmistakably their own. In a time when jazz is colliding with hip-hop\, Afrobeat\, psych\, and beat culture\, The Greyboy Allstars are not just relevant—they’re foundational. They’ve been laying bricks in this house since day one\, and their influence only grows deeper.
