The Music

BARRENCE WHITFIELD
​"Barrence Whitfield is a full-throttle soul screamer whose Little Richard/Wilson Pickett/Solomon Burke/Soul/Funk/Rockabilly/Blues sound is the ultimate experience in concert-going." -Bostonblues.com

THE FIGGS
​“For more than two decades, the high-energy band has delivered a dance-inducing variety of fast-paced pop rock, complete with catchy hooks and hip-shaking bass lines.”
— SoundSpike.com
TRISTAN OMAND
​ “His acoustic guitar style sets a sparse backdrop to distinctly American songs and stories, and his approach to lyricism owes as much to John Steinbeck as to John Prine.”
