“Undeniably excellent.” — Paste Magazine

Sophie Allison, a.k.a. Soccer Mommy, makes pop-inflected indie rock with “one ear on the sounds of the early 2000s and the other warped toward the future” (NPR). Her new album, Sometimes, Forever—set to drop on June 24—is her first produced by Oneohtrix Point Never’s Daniel Lopatin. Allison’s visceral lyricism remains along with bubblegum hooks and addictive melodies, the energy turned up and tightened for an album “as bombastic as the ones that first fueled her nostalgic ’90s alt-rock dreams” (Pitchfork).

New York indie rock band Lightning Bug warms things up with their lush soundscapes and intimate lyrics.

EQX Presents The Nude Party

Formed in a North Carolina dormitory in 2012, The Nude Party celebrates the clanging rock of the ’60s while blending modern elements that have made them beloved by fans of all ages.

Originally an extended group of childhood friends and step-siblings who decided to start a band, The Nude Party began learning to play instruments at Appalachian State University in Boone, NC. The band is comprised of lead vocalist/guitarist Patton Magee, vocalist/lead guitarist Shaun Couture, organist/pianist Don Merrill, bass player Alec Castillo, percussionist Austin Brose, and drummer Connor Mikita. Most members also sing backup. Soon after coming together, the sextet moved into a lake house and started a nightly ritual of jamming in the basement. It was at a regular gig as the house band at a certain Boone party locale that the group’s practice of performing in the buff earned them a local reputation as “the naked party band.” They adopted the moniker The Nude Party just in time to move onto bookings at local clubs and bars, where they had to perform clothed.

They debuted with the Hot Tub EP in 2016 and followed up the their eponymous full-length debut in 2018. The Nude Party was heralded by Rolling Stone as “equal parts ‘I’m Waiting for the Man’ Velvet Underground and Exile on Main Street Stones.” The band’s sophomore full-length, Midnight Manor was released in 2020. The album was met with critical acclaim, with The Line of Best Fit saying “It’s an addictive and deeply satisfying exploration of the beauty and the pain, the agony and the ecstasy, and the rave up and the come down; all baked into the very grooves of every track on the album.”

Since their inception, The Nude Party have relocated to the Catskills in New York and watched their fan base steadily grow as their music reaches the masses. The boys busy touring the world and have performed with the likes of Jack White, The Arctic Monkeys, Greta Van Fleet among others.

The Garcia Project

Music Hall Arts Alliance presents the return of The Garcia Project on May 21, 2022 at 8:00pm.

The Garcia Project’s performances are based on actual set lists performed by The Jerry Garcia Band. All of their shows are classic recreations of a Jerry Garcia Band set list from 1976 to 1995. For anyone that never had a chance to experience the Jerry Garcia Band or for fans that want to relive a classic show, The Garcia Project delivers.

 With precise arrangements and the proper instrumentation and feel for the various eras, The Garcia Project faithfully channels and projects the feelings, emotions and music that propelled the Jerry Garcia Band and the fans through many years of musical bliss. It’s about family, soul searching, rejoicing, contemplating, celebrating, seeking truth and loving one another.

Praised by Dennis McNally, the press, and fans, The Garcia Project has been recreating classic Jerry Garcia Band set lists with stunning accuracy and detail across the country for the past 11 years. They recently finished their new album called “Spirit: a tribute to Jerry Garcia and the spiritual songs he performed”, produced by Maria Muldaur and featuring Jerry Garcia’s bandmates Peter Rowan, Jacklyn LaBranch, Buzz Buchanan and Maria Muldaur. The CD and other merchandise will be available for sale at this show. The Spirit album and the digital download are also available now at www.thegarciaproject.com/spirit

“I spent a lot of nights in a lot of places with the Jerry Garcia Band, and I’m here to say that I really enjoy what The Garcia Project does with those memories.  Mik’s guitar and his and Kat’s vocals stir up some very sweet vibes…sometimes they almost make me feel like I’m back in, say, 1992 at the Warfield.  Check ‘em out.” — Dennis McNally, former publicist for the Jerry Garcia Band

“For those of us who crave late 70’s (and through the 80’s and 90’s) Jerry Garcia Band, The Garcia Project scratches that itch for hearing live renditions of Jerry Garcia Band shows from that period.”— Bob Minkin, legendary Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia Band rock photographer
