For singer-songwriter Patrick Synan, this is exactly what’s going to be happening this Friday night. He’s going to be performing a mix of covers and originals at Murphy’s Taproom & Carriage House in Bedford starting at 6 p.m. He’s also going to be joined by his good friend and former bandmate Andrew Galucki, which will be their first time playing together live in quite a while. 

Ever since last year, Jerry Harrison, guitarist Adrian Belew – who was one of the many session players for “Remain in Light” – and a powerhouse band have been touring in celebration of the album. On August 2, they’re going to be making a stop at the Tupelo Music Hall in Derry with Brooklyn funk act Cool Cool Cool kicking things off at 8 p.m. 

Dwight + Nicole bringing the blues to Jimmy’s Jazz & Blues Club July 5 – you’ll want to be there.

Old Crow Medicine Show lands at The Music Hall April 12. Catch them if you can.

On March 30, people will be able to learn more about climate change while listening to Glier’s new batch of songs being performed in the Showroom at the Colonial Performing Arts Center in Keene. 

For the past two decades, the Souled Out Show Band has been entertaining crowds all over New England. Their performance is more akin to a spectacle than it is a regular show with vibrant visuals and an interactive experience for the audience.

The English folk troubadour has a vast amount of songs under his belt, and he’s going to be adding a few more officially on May 31. That’s when he’s going to be releasing the album “Ship To Shore” and it promises to be one of his best. As part of a long run of shows in support of the upcoming full-length, Thompson is going to be performing solo at the Tupelo Music Hall in Derry on March 22.

We’re so excited, it’s actually going to be our first New Hampshire show and Alexa is originally from Portsmouth. We feel like it’s a long time overdue for us to be playing there, we’ve played in a lot of states but not in New Hampshire so we couldn’t be more excited. We got a lot of family coming and stuff like that, so we’re super pumped. 

Blues guitar phenom Kenny Wayne Shepherd will be rockin’ the joint with his band. If you like kick-ass riffs, an abundance of charisma and just a flat out good time, then this show is for you.

If you’re looking for a weeknight funk party, you need to head over to The Press Room when Cool Cool Cool lands March 12. 

Indie rock enthusiasts most likely know of Roger Clark Miller through his time as the co-vocalist and guitarist for the Boston post-punks Mission of Burma, but these days he’s been doing a variety of different things. One of these things is a project that’s inspired by his own dreams where he writes them down in a journal and he interprets them through his music. This is all done by himself with no musical collaborators but with the assistance of an assortment of six strings and looping technology. It’s called the Solo Electric Guitar Ensemble and he’s going to be performing this creative outlet at Nova Arts in Keene on March 8. Japanese guitar virtuoso Hiroya Tsukamoto will be starting off the show at 7 p.m.
