Captain Jack and the Strangers “A Tribute To Billy Joel” performs with a swagger and fervor that conquers every stage, honoring the Piano Man and his great American songbook and igniting pure musical joy. 


The bands front man Captain Jack Favazza has a smooth and bold voice that channels Billy's very essence. The 24-year-old piano phenom exudes the charm and charisma of Joel while captivating audiences both young and old. His dynamic presence commands the spotlight's gleam, as he croons these classic songs making a river of dreams come true. 


The Strangers are Jack’s talented crew who craft a symphony of sound behind him with expert musicianship and great chemistry, their skills are truly polished. On saxophone, keyboard, harmonica and percussion Michael Lindberg colors the sound of the band with emotion and smooth soulful strokes of genius. Lead guitarist Mark Pelosi rips with passion, capturing rock 'n' roll lighting in a bottle, his riffs ignite the crowd with every tasteful lick. Rhythm guitarist Jim Frontiero seamlessly switches between silky acoustic guitar strumming & gritty electric rhythms without missing a beat. The bassist Michael Parsons grooves steady and true, an anchor for the music, keeping the melodies in view with each thumping note, he sets a thick foundation for every era of the Billy Joel songbook from 70’s through the 80’s and into the 90’s. The heartbeat of the Strangers is drummer Steve Russo commanding the beat he is a driving force, relentlessly unleashing rhythmic heat with precision and power, creating an infectious groove that carries the crowd along, the pulse of this band is strong. The Strangers also supply harmonious backing vocals that perfectly season the whole wonderful mix with musical bliss.


Blending classic soul power with a folk songwriter lyricism, New England’s Ali McGuirk has the rare ability to silence a room with just a few words of a song. With a voice that is raw and sultry and a style rooted in improvisation, her sets are a hypnotic and intimate journey.


On her Signature Sounds Recordings debut ’Til It’s Gone, McGuirk delivers a sublime set of songs that pairs her trademark soul sound with rootsy turns and raw rock ‘n’ roll detours. The album landed on the Boston Globe’s Top 50 Albums list for 2022. Consequence of Sound raved, “‘All Back’ feels like it could exist somewhere outside of space and time– it could be on a record in the background of a party in a 1970s bungalow, or it could be on your Discover Weekly playlist on Spotify. Either way, it’s a great listen.”
