Music Around Town ~ May 30 – June 5, 2011

Gloucester’s Kingsley Flood, Rhumbline, Saturday, June 4th. I can’t wait!

Kingsley Flood describe themselves as an Americana band that “draws as much from Woody Guthrie and the Band as it does Joe Strummer and the Replacements.” 

Kingsley Flood’s latest recording titled “I Don’t Wanna Go Home” was recently featured on NPR’s  “Song of the Day” , and the K-Flood does indeed rock.  They have a devoted allegiance of fans in Gloucester who pack the Rhumb Line everytime. The band’s lead guitarist, George Hall, has lived in Gloucester for 10 years, after many years of rocking Boston in former bands Dogzilla and Seks Bomba.  Kingsley Flood will be playing at the Rhumb Line Saturday, June 4th, three sets. It’s a great experience to see them close up, the tiny room explodes with rocking wild abandon. Great new track…but also worth checking out the first album Dust Windows, for which Kingsley Flood won “Best New Artist of the Year” at the 2010 Boston Music Awards. They also have many videos posted on YouTube including a killer version of another new song, “Mannequin Man” as performed live at TT the Bear’s in Cambridge.

A few words from Dave,

A busy one, so, let’s get goin’! This Thursday  at the Rhumbline  we’re proud to present that Tootin’ Torquemada of the Tenor: Mr. Andrew Clark. He’s  got some new toonz for us to do. I’m willin’ and able. Backing him up will be that irrrepressible Irish Cream of a drummbler, Mr. Benny Benson. Greg T. and myself will fill out the wasteline.

    Now, on Friday nite, It’s the Season Premiere of The Geezerz, aka Dave Sag’s Atomic Cocktail at the Studio on Rocky Neck. Last year, we chased out all the termites with our rousing renditions of all our unpopular blooz tunes. That’s Dave Brown, Dave Mattacks, Greg Tower, and  myself. We hope to continue the tradition this year, so, c’mon down!  We start at 9 pm, go to midnite.

  Last and least, next Monday nite, I’ll be limping in to Captain Carlo’s for a fabulous evening of classic jazz ,dixieland, blues, and the Great American Schlongbook with my fave musical buddies, The Good Old Salty Jazz Band. There’s probably 7 or 9 of us, I’m not really sure, and Mark Earley and Myself are the youngest members, though it’s hard to tell sometimes. YOU SHOULD BE THERE: THIS IS IMPORTANT. You don’t know what you’re missing. Aaah, a warm evening, groovey jazz, and cocktails on the deck; what could be better… Start time is 6:30 and we go to 9:30, so all you old farts have no excuse for dozing off and missing all the fun!

Cape Ann Brewing ~ http://www.capeannbrewing.com/

Chantey Night, an open Tuesday night sing featuring members of Three Sheets to the Wind, Knockabout, and other music groups from the North Shore and the Boston area, has moved from the now-closed Cameron’s to the Cape Ann Brewing Company.   The singing begins at 8:30 every Tuesday night. For all the schooner heads this is quite a thing to see.  If you have someone coming into town and want to hear and see something very different it can be pretty cool.

Be warned though- don’t go planning a meeting or meet-up where you think you’re going to be able to carry on a conversation while they are singing.  Best to plan it for a different night at Cape Ann Brewing.

This event has been sold out.

ORLEANS TRIO Shalin Liu Performance Center Friday, May 27 7:30pmTickets available starting 5pm Wednesday, February 9 at the venue’s online box office: http://www.rcmf.org/jazz-world/5-27-11.html

AND… at the 37 Main Street Box Office: 978-546-7391 The Orleans Trio Best known for “Dance With Me” and “Still the One,” Orleans has more than earned its place in American pop culture history, and continues to sound better than ever.  The Orleans Trio, with original members Lance and Larry (lead voice on ALL the hits) Hoppen, plus Dennis “Fly” Amero is an intimate, “unplugged” version of this prestigious and legendary group. Their vibrant harmonies, deep/broad catalog of classics and impressive NEW tunes, along with signature guitar work are proof that Orleans, in any configuration, is indeed “STILL THE ONE” and “STILL HAVIN’ FUN”! Their audience rapport, humor, onstage chemistry and versatility make this show a favorite for lovers of all live music.

This has to be one of the funniest messages yet.

From Dave himself,

  This thursday’s Rumline show features our own homegroan musical prodigy, Mr. Dave Brown, the systolic Svengali of  sliiide glitarrh. Always a pleasure. He’s bringing his entire bungee cord collection, too. Unfortuately his (and our) companion zygote Mr. Dave Mattacks had to cancel after suffering setbacks from some elective surgery. Luckily, Mr. Steevee Chaggaris, with the napalmolive hairdo, is ready to fill some mighty big shoes. Look for him on the eggbeaters, cackling away. As usual, Greg T. and myself fill out the waistline.
  They say summer’s coming: It’s Mammorial Day Weakend. and to get you off to a good start, The Madfish Grill proudly presents MADHOUSE this Friday nite. We’re gonna boogie! John Keegan and his ants are ready to crawl up your leg all night long! Start  scratching!

The Shalin Liu Performance Center ~ Performance Center” – http://www.rockportmusic.org/newperformance.html

Monday~

PHILADELPHIA ORCHESTRA:

BEETHOVEN SYMPHONY NO. 9 (HD BROADCAST)

Monday, May 23, 8PM

Composed a century apart, Stravinsky’s Symphony of Psalms and Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony both share a sense of pushing the symphonic genre into new areas, in both cases partly through the inclusion of chorus. But while Beethoven’s final work in the genre bears an outwardly “symphonic” structure–four movements and a big finale–Stravinsky’s from 1930 feels more oratorio-like. “It is not a symphony in which I have included Psalms to be sung,” Stravinsky said. “On the contrary, it is the singing of the Psalms that I am symphonizing.” In any event Stravinsky’s finale, “Alleluia-Laudate Dominum” delves the same celebratory spirit that made Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” an unprecedented expression of ecstasy in 1824. Maestro Dutoit is joined in this ingenious pairing by renowned soloists and the Philadelphia Singers Chorale.

Seaward Inn is happy to welcome Barry Michaud to our Sunday Morning Live Series. Barry will be with us on Sunday May 29, 2011, entertaining our guests as they enjoy our our beautiful Sunday Buffet by the Sea from 9:00AM till Noon.

Originally from Maine, Barry moved to the Boston area to join musical forces with the Orphans, Jonathan Edwards and bands with long time friend Allen Estes. Settling in the Cape Ann area, he now performs throughout New England as a solo artist as well as with the Backwoods Ramblers band. With a relaxed musical style. You’ll enjoy his songs of life, as well as a hint of Maine humor. You will especially enjoy songs from his current C.D. recording, “Better Late Than Never”. Always personal, you’ll be sure to enjoy his voice, guitar, and the stories they tell.

Take a few minutes and listen to Barry sing “Better Late Than Never” and then make plans to join us May 29th!

WHEN:                  Thursday May 19th

TIME:                    9pm

DEETS:                  21+/$3

                                The Bandit Kings (11:30pm)

pApAs fritAs is kicking off their European tour with their first gig since 2003 at The Rhumb Line on Thursday, May 19th starting at 9pm and accompanied by The BF’s and The Bandit Kings.  (Thanks to Dave Sag for giving up one of his fantastic Thursday night slots to allow the band a hometown show!)  The Primavera Sound Festival in Barcelona has invited pApAs fritAs to reunite this year for their 50,000+ attendee festival, which will be preceded by shows in Brussels, Paris, and Marseilles.   Two of their three albums (on Minty Fresh Records, Chicago) were recorded in West Gloucester, so after six European tours, two Japanese tours, countless cross-U.S. tours, and ten years…it’s fitting for the band to reunite here in Gloucester.  The band will be playing with Jenny Dee & The Deelinquents the next day (Friday, May 20th) at Harpoon Fest (at the Harpoon Brewery in Boston), as well, before departing for Europe.

Chantey Night, an open Tuesday night sing featuring members of Three Sheets to the Wind, Knockabout, and other music groups from the North Shore and the Boston area, has moved from the now-closed Cameron’s to the Cape Ann Brewing Company.   The singing begins at 8:30 every Tuesday night. For all the schooner heads this is quite a thing to see.  If you have someone coming into town and want to hear and see something very different it can be pretty cool.

Be warned though- don’t go planning a meeting or meet-up where you think you’re going to be able to carry on a conversation while they are singing.  Best to plan it for a different night at Cape Ann Brewing.

PHILADELPHIA ORCHESTRA:

BEETHOVEN SYMPHONY NO. 9 (HD BROADCAST)

Monday, May 23, 8PM

Composed a century apart, Stravinsky’s Symphony of Psalms and Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony both share a sense of pushing the symphonic genre into new areas, in both cases partly through the inclusion of chorus. But while Beethoven’s final work in the genre bears an outwardly “symphonic” structure–four movements and a big finale–Stravinsky’s from 1930 feels more oratorio-like. “It is not a symphony in which I have included Psalms to be sung,” Stravinsky said. “On the contrary, it is the singing of the Psalms that I am symphonizing.” In any event Stravinsky’s finale, “Alleluia-Laudate Dominum” delves the same celebratory spirit that made Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” an unprecedented expression of ecstasy in 1824. Maestro Dutoit is joined in this ingenious pairing by renowned soloists and the Philadelphia Singers Chorale.

General Admission: $15, $5 for students and youth 18 and under. 978-546-7391 or http://www.rockportmusic.org

ADDITIONAL EVENT — BENEFIT CONCERT

ORLEANS TRIO Shalin Liu Performance Center Friday, May 27 7:30pmTickets available starting 5pm Wednesday, February 9 at the venue’s online box office: http://www.rcmf.org/jazz-world/5-27-11.html

AND… at the 37 Main Street Box Office: 978-546-7391 The Orleans Trio Best known for “Dance With Me” and “Still the One,” Orleans has more than earned its place in American pop culture history, and continues to sound better than ever.  The Orleans Trio, with original members Lance and Larry (lead voice on ALL the hits) Hoppen, plus Dennis “Fly” Amero is an intimate, “unplugged” version of this prestigious and legendary group. Their vibrant harmonies, deep/broad catalog of classics and impressive NEW tunes, along with signature guitar work are proof that Orleans, in any configuration, is indeed “STILL THE ONE” and “STILL HAVIN’ FUN”! Their audience rapport, humor, onstage chemistry and versatility make this show a favorite for lovers of all live music.


ADDITIONAL EVENT — BENEFIT CONCERT LISTEN TO THE FUTURE! Saturday, June 4, 5PM-10PM

Concert to benefit Rockport Music’s Education and Outreach Program.

Live taping of NPR’s “From the Top” with pianist and host Christopher O’Riley and remarkable young guest artists. Hits from the Great American Songbook performed by musicians fromBoston Conservatory. Individual Tickets: $200 per person ($100 tax-deductible)

Coffee House at St. John’s Episcopal Church Gloucester

Friday, May 13 at 7:00 pm. Featuring Gary Backstrom

 

Gloucester, MA – St. John’s Episcopal Church, 48 Middle Street, and Gloucester is holding a Coffee house on Friday, May 13 at 7:00 pm.  Coffee and Tea will be available for purchase. Admission is free provided attendees bring canned goods or make a free will donation to the Cape Ann Food Pantry.

Renowned local guitarist Gary Backstrom spent over 12 years in the Boston based jam band Jiggle The Handle. He currently fronts The Gary Backstrom Band plus Road To Utopia – a Todd Rundgren tribute band. Don’t miss seeing Gary; even in an intimate acoustic setting he will rock your socks off.

“I’ve seen Gary about a dozen times the past 6 years and what amazes me is how he never does the same set twice. It is always a new and rewarding experience to hear him play. A unique part of this Friday’s event will be the “open mic” session. We are hoping folks will come and spontaneously share their performing skills whether it be singing, storytelling or poetry.”  – Jim LaBelle

 The Coffee House is open to the public. People attending are asked to bring canned food items or make a free will donation to the Open Door (the Cape Ann Food Pantry).  For more information please call Jim LaBelle at 978-828-0055.

At the Shalin Liu Performance Center the Lorelei Ensemble will be premiering five new settings of “Dona Nobins Pacem” (Grant Us Peace). Dedicated to the expansion of repertoire for women’s voices, this choral ensemble of eight women, works to expose audiences to lesser-known music from the Medieval through Baroque periods as well as works by living composers.

PHILADELPHIA ORCHESTRA:

BEETHOVEN SYMPHONY NO. 9 (HD BROADCAST)

Monday, May 23, 8PM

Composed a century apart, Stravinsky’s Symphony of Psalms and Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony both share a sense of pushing the symphonic genre into new areas, in both cases partly through the inclusion of chorus. But while Beethoven’s final work in the genre bears an outwardly “symphonic” structure–four movements and a big finale–Stravinsky’s from 1930 feels more oratorio-like. “It is not a symphony in which I have included Psalms to be sung,” Stravinsky said. “On the contrary, it is the singing of the Psalms that I am symphonizing.” In any event Stravinsky’s finale, “Alleluia-Laudate Dominum” delves the same celebratory spirit that made Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” an unprecedented expression of ecstasy in 1824. Maestro Dutoit is joined in this ingenious pairing by renowned soloists and the Philadelphia Singers Chorale.

Jalapenos Benefit Featuring LIVE MUSIC by ColdStream May 2, 2011

Hi Joey,

My husband and I subscribe to Good Morning Gloucester – it has really helped us get acclimated to the area. Thank you! Love your pics and updates.

I am a repeat Breast Cancer 3 Day walker – I have walked the 60 miles in Boston in July of 2009 & 10 and I am now preparing for the July 2011 walk. I will be doing a benefit at Jalapenos on Monday evening, May 2. We will have live music from 6:30-9 pm by ColdStream. I was wondering if you might add this event to your live music section? As you probably know, Jalapenos donates 10% of their proceeds from these benefits, which is very generous!

Monday, May 2 – Jalapenos Benefit Featuring LIVE MUSIC by ColdStream – a 4 piece acoustic band made up of 2 guitarists, a bass player and a mandolin player. They specialize in three and four part harmonies. Their music ranges from soft rock to pop, soul, Irish, Americana, country, English folk and classic rock. They are a staple in the southern New Hampshire restaurant circuit playing to warm receptions everywhere. 6:30 – 9 pm

Thanks for any shout out you can provide. If you have other promotional ideas, please let me know!

Best,
Liz Dooley

I am wicked excited that the Monday night jam is back. If you happen to stop by you may get to hear the Bandit Kings, Inge Berge and who knows who may appear. During these jams you get some magical moments from musicians that are there to let loose with no planned agenda.

Thank you to Dan King for hosting this jam and to Fred Shrigley for making it possible.

LIVE MUSIC –

————————————————————————————————————-

Cape Ann Brewing ~ http://www.capeannbrewing.com/

Chantey Night, an open Tuesday night sing featuring members of Three Sheets to the Wind, Knockabout, and other music groups from the North Shore and the Boston area, has moved from the now-closed Cameron’s to the Cape Ann Brewing Company.   The singing begins at 8:30 every Tuesday night.
For all the schooner heads this is quite a thing to see.  If you have someone coming into town and want to hear and see something very different it can be pretty cool.

Be warned though- don’t go planning a meeting or meet-up where you think you’re going to be able to carry on a conversation while they are singing.  Best to plan it for a different night at Cape Ann Brewing.

The Orleans Trio
Best known for “Dance With Me” and “Still the One,” Orleans has more than earned its place in American pop culture history, and continues to sound better than ever.  The Orleans Trio, with original members Lance and Larry (lead voice on ALL the hits) Hoppen, plus Dennis “Fly” Amero is an intimate, “unplugged” version of this prestigious and legendary group. Their vibrant harmonies, deep/broad catalog of classics and impressive NEW tunes, along with signature guitar work are proof that Orleans, in any configuration, is indeed “STILL THE ONE” and “STILL HAVIN’ FUN”! Their audience rapport,
humor, onstage chemistry and versatility make this show a favorite for lovers of all live music.
