  • Tommy Castro & The Painkillers

    Narrows Center for the Arts 16 Anawan St., Fall River, MA

    Thursday, April 23, 2026 $36 Advance | $38 Day of Show Doors 7pm | Show 8pm Multiple award-winning guitarist, vocalist, and bandleader Tommy Castro is a California-based blues and rock powerhouse. For over four decades, he’s captivated audiences with his soul-drenched vocals, searing guitar work, and high-energy live shows. As frontman of the telepathically tight and wildly raucous Tommy Castro & The Painkillers, he’s released 17 albums that span a wide stylistic range—from horn-driven R&B and hot-blooded soul to gritty, stripped-down rock and electric blues. With his latest and eighth Alligator Records release, Closer To The Bone, Castro returns to his roots, delivering what he calls “a real blues record, the way they would have made them back in the day.” Produced by guitar master Christoffer “Kid” Andersen at San Jose’s Greaseland Studio, the album is Castro’s rawest and most direct blues effort to date. The album features standout originals like Ain’t Worth The Heartache, Can’t Catch A Break, and Crazy Woman Blues, alongside deep-cut covers of songs by Castro’s friends and influences—Johnny Nitro, Magic Slim, Ron Thompson, Chris Cain, and more. Guest appearances include Rick Estrin, Billy Branch, Deanna Bogart, Chris Cain, Jim Pugh, and gospel harmonies from The Sons Of The Soul […]

    Margaret L. Jackson Performing Arts Center At BCC 777 Elsbree St, Fall River, MA, United States

    On April 25th at 7pm and April 26th at 1:30pm, Ballet Rhode Island makes its first-ever appearance at Bristol Community College, bringing the contemporary ballet program Pure Dance to the Margaret L. Jackson Arts Center! Tickets here. Striking contrast and kinetic beauty define Pure Dance, a bold celebration of what ballet can be today - athletic, expressive, and deeply human. Designed for both first-time dancegoers and seasoned audiences, the program offers a dynamic journey through contemporary ballet that highlights the moving body as both instrument and storyteller. From the effervescent brilliance of George Balanchine’s Allegro Brillante, to the meditative intimacy of Christopher Wheeldon’s Liturgy, to the raw contemporary pulse of Yury Yanowsky’s Fading Creatures, Pure Dance reveals ballet as an art form that is alive, relevant, and accessible. Set to gorgeous music and performed by Ballet RI’s professional artists, this unforgettable experience is just a short drive away, and an open invitation to come along for the ride. Following each performance, audiences are invited to stay for a Meet the Ballerina experience, offering a rare opportunity to connect directly with the artists, ask questions, and gain insight into the creative process behind the performance.
