Moonglow

MA

“MOONGLOW is a beautifully crafted story that is both surprising and touching. Surprising because it is so specific in time and place yet universal; touching, well, it’s funny and romantic and the audience was cheering at the outcome. We’re bringing friends who missed it to see MOONGLOW at the Firehouse.” R.D. Murphy

IN MEMORY OF LES HARRIS, SR. When asked about his choice of baritone Danny says...." I never really consciously chose the bari....it was a natural feeling."

The Suitcase Junket

MA

Matt Lorenz's vision, manifest in The Suitcase Junket, developed in the tension between the grand and the solitary. While audiences are captivated by his solitary form and the show itself, Lorenz, who homesteads with rescue dogs and chickens in rural Western Massachusetts, is most serious about the songs. He has been building a catalog, writing a world into existence. Solitary on stage and on the road, his mind is 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. With this 2020 release, The End is New, Lorenz’s grand vision for the song overrides the how of it. 

Roomful of Blues

MA

Even though Roomful of Blues’ lineup has changed over the years, the band has always been one of the tightest, most joyful blues ensembles in the world. Currently an eight-piece unit led by guitarist Chris Vachon, the band has never sounded fresher or stronger. Singer Phil Pemberton brings his sweet and soulful vocals and adds another bright new dimension to the jazzy, jump-blues musical roots.
