Boston Rock Photos And Stuff
November’s Rock-n-Romp event found Spirit Kid slapping smiles across the faces of the families gathered at The Sinclair. Timeless tunes have a way of doing that.
Thee Legendary Rockin Prophets turned Radio into a rock ‘n’ roll revival tent.
Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down! Doug fell down!*
* Also, The Field Effect played a great set to close out the 5 Years of Boston Emmissions with Anngelle Wood party at TT’s.
Nate Leavitt plays with everyone. Now everyone plays with him! Nate and his band were in fine form at TT’s to celebrate 5 years of Boston Emissions with Anngelle Wood. I’m very much looking forward to his upcoming solo record.
Walter Sickert And The Army Of Broken Toys brought steamcrunk to Redstar Union. There was even a special collaboration with Tad from Sidewalk Driver.
I’ve seen a lot of great shows at TT’s over the years. This here Friday night of the club’s 40th Anniversary week has been another to remember. What a ridiculous lineup. Who could possibly close out a night that has already seen killer sets by The Gravel Pit, Sidewalk Driver, The Field Effect, Emergency Music, Corin Ashley and Kenny Chambers? What’s that? They’ve got The Sheila Divine coming up next? You can’t be serious. Really? Good golly. I just. This is. I… uh… yeah. Amazing.
Gondoliers. All of their songs are about happiness and birthdays, right? No?
On this episode of Daykamp Music Goes To See The Field Effect, Johnny follows Doug, Nick, Annie and Adam into subterranean Cambridge for the band’s show at The Middle East Downstairs. The excitement in the room is palpable after compelling sets from The Susan Constant, The Deep North and Velah. The crowd is hungry for a set of energetic, heartfelt and memorable tunes played with great enthusiasm. All eyes are on The Field Effect as they take the stage. This is the moment the band has been preparing for.
Will The Field Effect make it to the surface alive? Tune in after these photos to find out…
Yes.
Well, isn’t this a nice surprise. I knew nothing of Badknight when I got to TT’s tonight, but I’m watching them now and I’m enthralled. The combination of finger-picked guitar, jazz inflected vocals and just-right upright is enchanting. I’ll be leaving with a copy of their freshly pressed vinyl.
Every Parks gig feels like an event. They’ve scored some sweet slots on big shows. They’ve played with some great bands. They Rumbled. The band’s most recent show was doubly special: They opened for The Motion Sick reunion while simultaneously releasing their new 7″ single. Not too shabby.
