SUMMARY:Charlie Ballantine
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, June 12\, 2026\n$31 Advance | $33 Day of Show\n[all-in pricing\, no additional fees]\nDoors 7pm | Show 8pm \nNamed as one of the top 200 living guitarists by All About Jazz Magazine\, Charlie Ballantine is acclaimed as one of the finest and most versatile  young guitarists on the scene today. JAZZ TIMES MAGAZINE hails his playing as “teeming with intricate grooves and maniacal precision his guitar work is both beautiful and complex” and VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE described his style by stating “Jazz\, rock\, and folk music peacefully coexist in Charlie Ballantine’s world”. \nEquipped with an impressive body of original compositions on albums like “Vonnegut” and “Cold Coffee”\, Ballantine also displays a great reverence for the jazz tradition through the inclusion of standards like ‘My One and Only Love’\, ‘East of the Sun’ and an entire double album dedicated to the music of Thelonious Monk released September 2021.  “In the vein of fellow guitarists like John Scofield\, Bill Frisell and Julian Lage\, Ballantine reconciles his educational background in jazz with the stylistic background of his instrument. He approaches the gratifying tonal and harmonic language of rock/roots with the groove\, ambition and improvisational focus of a jazz musician” – (JAZZIZ MAGAZINE) \nAlthough primarily a front man for his own projects with tours and frequent appearances throughout the US and Canada at venues and festivals such as the Indianapolis Jazz Festival\, The Winnipeg International Jazz Festival and The Elkhart Jazz Festival\, Ballantine also has an extensive list of side man credits having performed with names like Nicole Henry\, Walter Smith III\, Emmett Cohen\, Dave King\, John Raymond\, Russell Hall\, Frank Glover\, Steve Alee\, and Rahsaan Barber helping to further solidify him as a creative force and  put him in the highest of ranks as a performer. \n“Befitting a guitarist from America’s heartland\, Charlie Ballantine mixes jazz\, folk-rock\, surf/instro\, blues\, pop\, and country into a simmering pot of guitar sound and style.” – Vintage Guitar Magazine

SUMMARY:Rick Estrin and The Nightcats
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, June 13 2026\n$35 Advance | $37 Day of Show\n[all-in pricing\, no additional fees]\nDoors 7pm | Show 8pm \nBlues vocalist\, harmonica master and songwriting legend Rick Estrin\, leader of the musically fearless\, wildly entertaining\, award-winning band Rick Estrin & The Nightcats\, doesn’t like to talk much about his own musical superpowers. But ask him about the Nightcats—multi-instrumentalist/musical mastermind/producer Christoffer “Kid” Andersen\, keyboardist/organ wizard/bass player Lorenzo Farrell and endlessly creative drummer Derrick “D’Mar” Martin—and he’ll be happy to sing their praises. “This band is killer. I’m enjoying this all more than ever\,” says the man who’s been performing and recording professionally since the early 1970s. “It’s a blessing—there’s so much energy\, so much collaboration. The band is just so good right now. And the live show is better than ever.” Living Blues calls Rick Estrin & The Nightcats “a terrific blues band with a real character for a front man\,” continuing\, “Clever\, well-crafted songs framed by first-flight musicianship…hugely entertaining\, intelligently conceived and executed roots rock with a wickedly cool and otherworldly twist on tradition. Estrin’s harp work is masterful.”\n\nRick Estrin & The Nightcats’ new album and the band’s sixth release\, The Hits Keep Coming\, packs a powerful punch\, with phenomenal musicianship and lyrics—both serious and humorous. Produced by Andersen at his legendary Greaseland USA studio in San Jose\, California\, the record captures the band’s chemistry and magic in what is certainly among their strongest\, most urgent and most cohesive releases so far. The Hits Keep Coming is modern blues at its most potent\, intense and fun in all the right places\, as Rick Estrin & The Nightcats deliver twelve groove-heavy\, hard-hitting songs\, including ten written or co-written by Estrin and two surprising covers (one obscurity from Muddy Waters\, one from Leonard Cohen that Estrin would have liked to have written). From the foot-stomping opener Somewhere Else\, to the harsh reality of the title track (with backing vocals by The Sons Of The Soul Revivers)\, to the musically infectious\, lyrically harrowing song about addiction\, The Circus Is Still In Town\, The Hits Keep Coming is a lyrical and musical tour-de-force. \nIn addition to Estrin’s celebrated songwriting and peerless blues harmonica playing\, he and the band are among the most entertaining and colorful showmen around. Estrin’s signature streetwise vocals and hipster-cool look\, Andersen’s eye-popping\, off-the-cuff guitar pyrotechnics\, Farrell’s mighty organ\, piano and bass work and D’Mar’s dynamic\, acrobatic drumming make every one of their live performances a must-see event. “People don’t go out to see people who look like themselves\,” says Estrin. “They want to see something special. I was schooled in this business to be a showman\, and that’s what you get when you come to see us perform. We know how to put on a show. I feel sorry for anyone who has to follow us.” \nEstrin was schooled by some of the very best blues musicians on the West Coast. While still a teen\, he was tutored by San Francisco’s famed musician (and pimp) Fillmore Slim. He was mentored by San Francisco’s legendary Rodger Collins and gigged with blues stars Lowell Fulson and Z.Z. Hill. Estrin moved to Chicago when he was 19 to work with Windy City bluesmen Johnny Young\, Eddie Taylor\, Sam Lay and John Littlejohn\, and even jammed with Muddy Waters. He returned to California and continued to hone his craft. By the time he joined forces with jaw-dropping guitarist Little Charlie Baty and formed Little Charlie & The Nightcats in 1976—a band he would front for the next 30 years—Estrin was a seasoned performer with plenty of talent and a gift for writing killer original songs. \nUpon Baty’s retirement from touring in 2008\, Estrin\, together with Farrell (a Nightcat since 2003)\, recruited high-flying guitar wunderkind Christoffer “Kid” Andersen and formed Rick Estrin & The Nightcats. With Kid onboard\, the band quickly became a worldwide favorite with blues fans as well as with critics and radio programmers. “Kid’s fearless on the guitar\,” says Estrin. “He’s really the only guy who could fit in with us.” With an uninhibited style that perfectly meshed with Estrin’s wildly imaginative songs\, the new band charged out of the gate with Twisted in 2009\, following up with One Wrong Turn in 2012\, You Asked For It—Live! in 2014\, Groovin’ In Greaseland in 2016 and Contemporary in 2019. Each album is its own treasure chest full of memorable songs and white-hot playing. According to the UK’s Blues & Rhythm\, “Rick Estrin & The Nightcats have crafted an instantly identifiable sound. They serve up insightful\, original blues combined with tough rock ’n’ roll. This band is superb.” \nRick Estrin & The Nightcats have performed at festivals and concert stages from San Francisco to Chicago to New York\, and everywhere in between\, and have toured the United Kingdom\, Norway\, Belgium\, France\, Switzerland\, Poland\, Australia\, Israel and even Estonia and Russia. The band has twice won the coveted Blues Music Award for Band Of The Year. Additionally\, Estrin has won Blues Music Awards for Song Of The Year\, Traditional Male Blues Artist and for Instrumentalist—Harmonica. \nThe Chicago Sun-Times declares\, “These are serious musicians having a hotter than hot good time. It’s tough to stay in your seat when Estrin and his musical cohorts get cooking.” As No Depression says\, “This is a band that always delivers the goods.”

SUMMARY:Tab Benoit
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, July 3\, 2026\n$71 Advance | $73 Day of Show\n[all-in pricing\, no additional fees]\nDoors 7pm | Show 8pm\nOpener: The Cold Stares \nTab Benoit is a 4x Grammy nominated singer\, songwriter and guitarist who has built a remarkable 30+ year career on the foundation of his gritty and soulful Delta swamp blues\, acquiring a devoted legion of fans along the way\, as well as 5 Blues Music Awards\, including BB King Entertainer of the Year (twice) and an induction into The Louisiana Music Hall of Fame.\nAfter a 13-year hiatus\, Tab is back with his latest effort\, I Hear Thunder\, on his own label\, Whiskey Bayou Records. The new album was his first #1 in the Billboard charts in over 30 years. Benoit’s 2013 release\, Medicine\, was co-produced with Anders Osborne for Concord International\, and garnered three Blues Music Awards. Following this notable success\, Benoit took a step away from music\, taking a 13-year sabbatical from recording and entering a period of creative exile. \nTab’s accomplishments as a musician are matched only by his devotion to the environmental health of his native Louisiana wetlands. The notoriety achieved by his success provided him with a mouthpiece to promote his growing concern for the Louisiana Wetlands and coastal erosion from the region he calls home. Benoit is the founder and driving force behind Voice of the Wetlands\, an organization working to preserve the coastal waters of his home state. In 2010\, he received the Governor’s Award for Conservationist of the Year from the Louisiana Wildlife Federation. Benoit has also starred in the iMax motion picture Hurricane on the Bayou\, a documentary of Hurricane Katrina’s effects and a call to protect and restore the Wetlands. \nBenoit has recorded and/or performed with Junior Wells\, George Porter Jr\, Dr. John\, Willie Nelson\, Big Chief Monk Boudreaux\, Billy Joe Shaver\, Maria Muldaur\, James Cotton\, Cyril Neville\, Kenny Aronoff\, Allen Toussaint\, Kim Wilson\, Jimmy Thackery\, Charlie Musslewhite\, Kenny Neal\, Chris Layton\, Ivan Neville\, Jimmy Hall\, Jim Lauderdale\, Anders Osborne\, and Alvin Youngblood Hart to name a few.

SUMMARY:Darlingside
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, July 10\, 2026\n$44 Advance | $46 Day of Show\n[all-in pricing\, no additional fees]\nDoors 7pm | Show 8pm \nEverything Is Alive\, Darlingside’s fourth LP\, marks a subtle but remarkable departure for the Boston-based quartet NPR once described as “exquisitely arranged\, literary minded\, baroque folk-pop.” While the album retains much of the lushness and sophistication of Extralife (2018) and Fish Pond Fish (2020)\, the band’s latest work decisively exposes and differentiates the individual voices of the four songwriters—a daring reinvention for a group known for ubiquitous vocal harmonies. Grappling with change both personal and universal\, with quandaries domestic and existential\, Everything Is Alive is an album about loss and the struggle for a semblance of redemption.\nComprised of Don Mitchell\, Auyon Mukharji\, Harris Paseltiner and David Senft\, four likeminded multi-instrumentalists who first met at Williams College in 2009\, Darlingside’s career has been defined by the elegance of their compositions and the unity of their four voices. Their talent for harmony and melodic world-building is part of what garnered praise from outlets like NPR\, Rolling Stone and The New Yorker\, and what has created demand worldwide for their extraordinary live performances. Becoming beautifully unindividualized has\, in other words\, worked very well for Darlingside in the past. With a vigor and discipline more common to graduate-level writing workshops than to indie rock\, Darlingside has\, over the years\, experimented with all manners of idiosyncratic methods for elevating and upholding a truly democratic process of songwriting—processes that include multiple rounds of group writing and recording exercises—all with the aim of escaping the trap that bands with multiple songwriters often fall into: ego-driven infighting and artistic incoherence. \nOn Everything Is Alive\, then\, Darlingside is taking a risk. Nudged by the limitations created by pandemic isolation\, as well as through other more voluntary catalysts\, the album\, which was produced and recorded by the band and mixed by Tucker Martine (My Morning Jacket\, Sufjan Stevens\, Iron and Wine)\, foregrounds in a sustained and heretofore untried way the individual voices of each member. Where once the harmonies formed a hard-won sonic unification\, Everything Is Alive showcases the four singers as they alternate (more or less) song for song\, an approach that rewards listeners with a sense of personal ownership and\, therefore\, a new degree of intimacy and nuance. \nDon’t misunderstand: Everything Is Alive is still very much a collaborative effort—many of the same meticulous rituals and exercises went into this effort as went into Extralife and Fish Pond Fish. The difference here is that the band has given itself permission to plumb new depths\, to add extra dimension to what was already a highly dialed-in aesthetic. And the results are compelling\, not only due to the intimacy itself\, but for the way such intimacy is counterpointed or juxtaposed against Darlingside’s trademark lusciousness. Present still are the beds of enveloping harmonies\, as in the stunning (mostly) a cappella “How Long Again.” Retained also are the textured polyrhythms\, the infectious body percussion\, a triumphant horn section to bolster the earworm chorus of “Baking Soda” and a sobering cello quartet to elevate the heartbreak of “Lose The Keys.” The difference is that on Everything Is Alive these moments have been set against quieter\, and thus contrasting\, depths of solitude and vulnerability. \nIn this way\, Everything Is Alive\, which was begun in 2021\, seems a continuation of 2020’s Fish Pond Fish. A sequel\, perhaps; the second half of a COVID double album. Where Fish Pond Fish built its lush sonic landscape around vibrant images of woolgathering\, fruit picking and returning home\, Everything Is Alive confronts the multitude of challenges that arise when “home at last” becomes “when\, dear god\, will I be free of this stasis and grief?” Lose the keys\, the marbles\, lose a parent/lose the count\, lose the plot/it’s the losing that counts/is it not sings Mitchell on “Lose the Keys.” Elsewhere one encounters images of walking in circles\, of domestic frustration\, and of unabashedly falling apart\, all of which work together as an acknowledgment of a despair that must be confronted before redemption can be made possible. “Am I almost out of the dark?” asks Senft on “Can’t Help Falling Apart”—a track that\, it turns out\, helped Senft arrive at the realization that he could not continue as a touring member of the band. \nIn other places on the album\, such as opening track “Green Light\,” a propensity for retreating into the self is refuted by an attempt to discern the small but tangible glory of the world before us. The song meditates on the humble beauty contained within things as (seemingly) drab as sidewalks and concrete and rust. Built on an iPhone memo of a strumming mandocello\, “Green Light” is notable for another reason: in its mantra-like worldliness it is unlike anything Darlingside has done before. Reminiscent of George Harrison circa “Within You Without You\,” the track\, itself a creative leap\, signals the heretofore untrod territory the album at large goes on to explore. \nVivid images and striking turns of phrase abound on Everything Is Alive. Expectations are commonly inverted or exploded—exploded curiously\, with nuance\, but exploded no less—as in these lines from “All The Lights In The City”: maybe working is what makes us live\, or maybe it’s living/sky is always hanging blue above the cloud/but the path of no resistance will wear you out. On “Sea Dogs\,” the track that contains the album’s title\, Paseltiner sings over an effervescent dreamscape: I can’t wake up all the time/or even half the time or/even be on time. Such lines capture the disorientation and desperation that pervade this album. And yet\, later in the same song\, come the lines which align poignantly with the song’s dreamy sonic context: when up in the clouds are sea dogs/and kites and big white basketballs/the backyard is thickening/ how is it everything/ everything is alive/alive\, alive. “Sea Dogs” is both the album’s thesis and a bridge to Fish Pond Fish\, modifying that album’s motifs about nature as a reflection of the self to ask whether nature is not also a means of escaping or transcending the confines of selfhood altogether. \nIt’s a rare thing and becoming rarer by the day: a group of musicians with that emulsifying magic to make the whole greater than the sum of its parts. And to see Darlingside perform live is to confirm this special chemistry. With the release of Everything Is Alive the band will\, for the first time\, take to the road without Dave Senft. Instead of filling his spot directly\, the band has wisely chosen to honor the special chemistry of the foursome by letting those arrangements live on the recordings without obligation to faithfully recreate them onstage. While Dave remains a contributing member of the band\, on tour Darlingside will perform in a completely different configuration altogether—a configuration that will\, at times\, include the album’s drummer Ben Burns\, singer Molly Parden\, and others—proving again how the group can adroitly rearrange themselves for the breaking of a new and different day.

SUMMARY:The Brothers Comatose
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, July 18\, 2026\n$40 Advance | $43 Day of Show\n[all-in pricing\, no additional fees]\nDoors 7pm | Show 8pm \nFusing old school string band instrumentation with rock and roll exuberance\, The Brothers Comatose cement their status as standard bearers of a thriving\, innovative West Coast roots movement on their intoxicating new album\, Golden Grass. Recorded with co-producers Greg Holden and Tim Bluhm\, the collection is as diverse and enthralling as the California landscape itself—at times carefree and breezy\, at times wild and rugged—with lush\, organic arrangements full of rich vocal harmonies and driving guitar\, fiddle\, banjo\, mandolin\, and upright bass. While the record marks the group’s first release with newest member Addie Levy\, the result is quintessential Brothers Comatose: a warm\, joyful reflection on identity and the ties that bind from a band that knows exactly who they are (and exactly where they come from).\n\nFounded by Ben and Alex Morrison in 2008\, The Brothers Comatose first emerged from San Francisco with their 2010 debut\, Songs From The Stoop\, which helped earn dates with the likes of Gillian Welch & David Rawlings\, Greensky Bluegrass\, and Trampled By Turtles. In the decade-and-a-half that followed\, the critically acclaimed quintet would go on to release five more full-length LPs\, rack up nearly 50 million streams\, land festival slots at Outside Lands\, High Sierra\, and Hardly Strictly Bluegrass\, tour with Lake Street Dive\, The Devil Makes Three\, and Yonder Mountain String Band\, and build up a devoted following thanks to their raucous live shows and relentless schedule.
