SUMMARY:David Wax Museum & Lowland Hum present The Golden Hours
DESCRIPTION:Catch the unveiling of The Golden Hours\, a new band formed by the members of acclaimed indie-folk acts David Wax Museum and Lowland Hum. These musicians have been touring and recording for over 20 years\, featured on CBS Saturday Morning and NPR’s Tiny Desk\, and lauded by The New York Times\, Washington Post\, TIME and Rolling Stone.  The Golden Hours’ debut record Terra Nova (to be released in 2026) brings together the power of these four songwriters in a marriage of lush harmonies\, emotional depth\, and supreme musicality. \nHailed by NPR Music as “pure\, irresistible joy” and praised by The Guardian as “global crossover at its best…as cheerfully infectious as it is original\,” David Wax Museum’s eclectic and exuberant sound blends the ancient and ever-relevant rhythms of traditional Mexican music with amber pop hues and unabashed rock riffs\, all tethered together by seductive harmonies. \nCo-fronted by multi-instrumentalist Suz Slezak with her raucous accordion and sublime fiddling along with the charismatic energy of David Wax\, their on-stage chemistry is both captivating and intimate. Since their early breakout as a buzz band at the revered Newport Folk Festival\, the band has toured the world with their two young children in tow\, performing at festivals in North America and Europe\, and sharing stages with The Avett Brothers\, Los Lobos\, The Wood Brothers\, Old97’s\, Buena Vista Social Club\, Gregory Alan Isakov\, Watchhouse\, Josh Ritter\, and Guster\, among others. \nTransmitting their kinetic energy in platforms including CBS This Morning: Saturday\, Tiny Desk Concert\, and NPR’s World Cafe\, they have also soundtracked love stories on and offscreens\, from the Netflix #1 show Firefly Lane to the wedding of US Secretary of Transportation\, Pete Buttigieg. Canada’s CKUA Radio praised their latest album You Must Change Your Life as “truly transformative — a colorful\, multi-layered dream world which speaks to both the most earthly and the most ineffable sides of our human existence.”

SUMMARY:Joe Crookston
DESCRIPTION:Joe is a force of nature on stage. He is in his power AND he communes with his audience and welcomes them into the magic. \nFrom touring with Gordon Lightfoot\, headlining major US festivals\, receiving Folk Alliance International “Album of the Year\,” releasing NINE BECOMES ONE (2023) to being named Folk Alliance International Artist-in- Resident\, Joe is on fire. He’s played with Suzanne Vega\, Dar Williams\, David Francey\, John McCutcheon\, John Gorka\, Judy Collins and 100’s more. \nHe’ll surprise you. He awakens the cynics. He’s plumbing for lyrical gold. \nHis rhythm is infectious. In concert\, he is funny as hell one moment and transcendent the next. photo: Linda McDonald \nHE BELIEVES IN STORIES\nCome to a show. Visual\, artful and surprising. Brooklyn in July\, Oklahoma towns\, rattlesnake tails\, turbary thieves\, meter maids and drunk roosters. At the end of the night\, you’ll leave inspired. “The Long Note” is a phrase in Irish culture. “The Long Note” is that place of resonance and transcendence where the music\, the voices\, the instruments\, and the community ALL come together and unite. \nTHERE IS A LONG NOTE & JOE IS REACHING FOR IT\nWhether he’s weaving through lap slide songs or fiddling an American Southern tune\, he’ll draw you in. It happens every time. Watch a YouTube video…it’s fine\, but it’s not the same. You gotta come to a show. With unwavering courage to be himself\, he is literate\, poignant and funny as hell. \nHe lives in Ithaca NY\, and tours regularly in the US\, Ireland and Canada.

SUMMARY:PawPaw Rod
DESCRIPTION:PawPaw Rod\, the Hawaii-born\, Oklahoma-raised rapper and singer\, discovered his passion for music and writing during his upbringing as a military brat. Moving frequently\, he found solace in the familiar sounds of his favorite records. When speaking on his artistry\, he explains that during his formative years in Norman\, OK\, “There was an absence of a dominant or regional sound\, especially for black artists. This afforded me the freedom to pull from everything\, crucially shaping my music today\, a credit I attribute to my childhood experiences of moving around various cultures and tribes.” PawPaw Rod grew up on a steady diet of Maxwell\, Prince\, The Gap Band\, and Bill Withers. He first caught the performance bug singing in church\, sharing that “ever since that first time singing on stage\, I knew I would forever be on a journey of chasing that feeling.” \nPawPaw Rod released his explosive debut single\, “HIT EM WHERE IT HURTS\,” in 2020\, seamlessly merging hip-hop\, 60s soul\, funk\, and alternative. \nAcross four EPs — A PawPaw Rod EP (2021)\, Another PawPaw Rod EP (2022)\, This Must Be a PawPaw EP (2023)\, and Doobie Mouth (2024) — Rod has cultivated a catalog that has now surpassed 200M streams and drawn critical praise from outlets like Complex\, FADER\, GQ\, Nylon\, and Rolling Stone. His 2024 project Doobie Mouth arrived ahead of his first North American headline tour. \nAs a live performer\, Rod has appeared on some of the biggest festival stages including Lollapalooza\, Lightning in a Bottle\, Austin City Limits\, and Coachella — where he joined Neil Frances in 2024 and Polo & Pan in 2025. \nRod’s music has resonated across screens\, featured in shows like Netflix’s Outer Banks\, Apple TV+’s Platonic\, and HBO’s Insecure\, as well as major campaigns for Apple and Nike. In 2024\, he was one of the faces of GAP’s global “Give Your Gift” holiday campaign\, appearing in stores and on billboards worldwide. His music has also reached fans through syncs in MLB The Show and Fortnite Radio.

SUMMARY:Divergent Studio | Divergent Speed
DESCRIPTION:Each summer at Divergent Studio\, the performers are separated into trios and quartets\, and each of the 30 composers are assigned an ensemble. Composers are given a few days to write a brand new new 2 minute work\, the performers are given a few days to learn and rehearse the work\, and off we go…\nLeonard Bernstein once said “To achieve great things\, two things are needed: a plan and not quite enough time.” The composers come up with the plan\, and we give them not quite enough time!

SUMMARY:Time Sawyer
DESCRIPTION:Time Sawyer’s name reflects the pull between the past and the future. The character Tom Sawyer evokes the rural background and love of home that the band shares. Time is a muse for songwriting; it’s the thread that runs through life\, bringing new experiences and giving us a sense of urgency\, while still connecting us with our past. The folk-rock band has performed on the stages of some of the Southeast’s most iconic festivals\, including Merlefest\, Floydfest\, Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion\, Albino Skunk Music Festival\, and Carolina in the Fall. They’ve shared bills with American Aquarium\, John Craigie\, Hiss Golden Messenger\, Langhorne Slim\, John Moreland\, Steep Canyon Rangers\, The Wood Brothers\, Susto\, and many more. \nIn March 2020 the band started a variety livestream called “Sam on Sunday.” The show originated out of necessity\, as the pause button was hit for live shows\, but quickly\, connecting with friends\, family\, and fans each week became just as important. As live music returned\, the project transformed into “Sam on Someday\,” bringing together guest artists of widely varying genres to create memorable\, one-time-only collaborative experiences. \nTime Sawyer’s songs call out the attitudes and behaviors that lead to our divisions – the way that we show understanding to our friends and family\, without thinking about how folks outside our social circle are experiencing their own problems\, and are\, at heart\, just like us. The music does what might seem impossible. It holds listeners accountable\, but at the same time\, draws them in and makes them feel good about what we all have in common. One of Time Sawyer’s goals has always been for listeners to feel a sense of community and connection during the show\, and then to keep it with them\, long after the music ends.

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:Of Montreal
DESCRIPTION:On of Montreal’s seminal album The Sunlandic Twins\, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Kevin Barnes followed up their 2004 Polyvinyl debut\, Satanic Panic in the Attic\, with what became the band’s most commercially successful album to date. Originally released in April 2005\, The Sunlandic Twins marked a significant turning point for Montreal\, showcasing Barnes’ evolving songwriting and a shift towards a more electronic and dance-oriented sound. The album’s vibrant blend of synth-pop and psych rock helped cement its status as a fan favorite and a defining moment in the band’s career. Iconic tracks like “Wraith Pinned to the Mist and Other Games” and “The Party’s Crashing Us” became some of the most beloved songs in the band’s extensive catalog.

SUMMARY:Windborne
DESCRIPTION:Windborne’s captivating show draws on the singers’ deep roots in traditions of vocal harmony\, while the absolute uniqueness of their artistic approach brings old songs into the present. Known for the innovation of their arrangements\, their harmonies are bold and anything but predictable. Instead of simply dazzling the audience with vocal fireworks; Windborne evokes a deep emotional response connecting their audience to the past\, distant places and themselves\, it’s no wonder they have been crowd favorites since starting to tour in 2018. Windborne is particularly known for our viral videos which have gained the group nearly 500\,000 followers singing at Mont Saint Michel in France\, and Cathedrals around the world! \nWith a 20-year background studying polyphonic music around the world\, Lauren Breunig\, Jeremy Carter-Gordon\, Lynn Rowan\, and Will Rowan share a vibrant energy onstage with a blending of voices that can only come from decades of friendship alongside dedicated practice. The ensemble shifts effortlessly between drastically different styles of music\, drawing their audience along on a journey that spans continents and centuries\, illuminating and expanding on the profound power and variation of the human voice. BBC Traveling Folk describes Windborne as “subverting expectations and redefining the genre [of vocal music]… just absolutely phenomenal!” \nAudiences and critics lavish praise upon the singers not only for their technical mastery\, but for the passion\, engagement\, and connection with each other and the audience that imbues each performance with a rare power. But there’s another\, crucial dimension to Windborne that guides and roots their artistry. They are adherents to folk music’s longtime alliance with social activism\, labor and civil rights\, and other movements that champion the oppressed\, the poor\, and the disenfranchised. Windborne’s dynamic harmonies breathe new life into old songs\, creating an experience that is rooted by its history\, but strikingly relevant to the contemporary listener.

SUMMARY:Ryan Davis & The Roadhouse Band
DESCRIPTION:New Threats from the Soul is a masterclass in reducing the sublime to the prosaic\, immensity to infinitesimally\, and vice versa (the trick can only work both ways). Everything in our universe is essentially flotsam or jetsam\, rubbish heaps of fragments and shards. We\, especially\, are jerry-rigs of bubblegum and driftwood\, inconsistencies and incoherencies\, dead dreams and necrophagous hopes. The record functions in parallel with Kafka’s winking dictum that there is an infinite amount of hope in the universe\, just not for us. New Threats suggests that maybe\, just maybe\, something like redemption is possible\, but only once we’re entirely emptied out and hawked in toto down at Walden Pawn.\n\nNext month\, the Roadhouse Band will play a handful of dates in the Midwest and South\, with a robust UK and EU tour to follow. Today’s newly announced dates will bring the band to additional cities in the South and Midwest\, as well as cities on the West Coast. A full list of dates is available below.\n\n“New Threats from the Soul [is] a beautiful and wildly smart record about making do in an upside-down world.” — Amanda Petsurich\, The New Yorker\n\n“If you don’t know it yet\, it’s my privilege to tell you that Ryan Davis is one of the greatest songwriters of his generation.” — Nathan Salsberg\n\nRead Less
