Performance Schedule:
July 8 – Rob Flax and his Boom Chick Trio
Rob Flax possesses a rare combination of skills: he is an award-winning virtuoso violinist, classically trained but known for his jazz and improvisational pyrotechnics and irresistible grooves; he is also a powerhouse vocalist, capable of silky crooning a la Nat King Cole or visceral Chicago blues shouts. Rob has performed nationally and internationally with groups of many different styles, sharing the stage with B.B. King and Tower of Power, Trans Siberian Orchestra and YouTube star Jacob Collier, among many others. He is a graduate of the New England Conservatory, and he currently lives in Boston. For many years Rob performed mostly solo—it takes a special kind of musician to keep pace with Rob’s stylistic breadth and depth!—but after much searching he’s finally found a band that can keep up: Boom Chick Trio is a new “supergroup” featuring incredible instrumentalists who have chops for days, but know how to balance their prowess in service of the song. With danceable grooves, flashy hot licks, clever lyrics, and beautiful vocal harmonies, this show has something for everyone!
August 12 – periwinkle
periwinkle is a dynamic band that performs all over the Boston area playing original music and covers. periwinkle is a group of performing/recording singer-songwriters that live by the motto “self expression.” Through the creative minds of Kirsten Alicia and her talented band, they look to shake up the norms of the entertainment industry. periwinkle produces neo soul/jazz influenced music with thought-provoking lyrics and killer production/beats that are easy for anyone to connect to. Along with classic favorites from Stevie Wonder, Adele, and so much more.
