SICARD HOLLOW

Nashville’s psychedelic punk-grass rockers, Sicard Hollow, grew up sick of any existing institution telling them who and what to be. Now, as they navigate adulthood, they’re equally tired of the music institutions telling them what their music should sound like— so they dunked it in patchouli and a skate-and-destroy ethos that brings an enduring sound into the modern age.

SQUEAKY FEET

Squeaky Feet is redefining the prog rock & jam-band experience with their electrifying blend of progressive rock, jazz fusion, and dance grooves. Combining inspiration from giants such as King Crimson, Weather Report, Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, and Rush with the modern improvisational ethos of Phish, Umphrey’s McGee, and Dopapod, the Denver-based quintet captivates audiences with high-energy performances that transcend genre boundaries. Seamlessly weaving triumphant solos, intricate rhythms, and exploratory improvisation, Squeaky Feet delivers a sonic journey that leaves listeners enthralled and live audiences in awe.

Will Evans creates music as an open invitation—to drop your guard, tune in, and move through the world a little more freely. Rooted in folk tradition yet unconfined by genre, his songs blend thoughtful, quotable lyrics with sunlit grooves and global textures, encouraging listeners to reconnect with their most honest selves. Based in Rhode Island, the singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist has built a devoted following by pairing sound with intention, most notably through his Kind Folk community, which turns shows into shared experiences of kindness, charity, and collective uplift.

Known for his dynamic live performances, Evans weaves together acoustic guitar, handpan, didgeridoo, beatboxing, and percussion to create a fluid, organic sound that feels both grounded and expansive. His 2025 release The Wild Unknown pushes that vision further, exploring the crossroads of contemporary folk, electronica, and rock, with collaborations from artists like Tristan Prettyman, Dirtwire, and Moontricks.

From sold-out rooms across the U.S. and Europe to stages shared with Crosby & Nash, Grace Potter, Bruce Hornsby,Dirtwire, Trevor Hall, and Railroad Earth, Will Evans continues to build a musical space where connection comes first—and everyone belongs.

The Whiskey Treaty Roadshow, comprised of four Massachusetts singer-songwriters, uses a mixture of styles including Americana, Roots, Rock & Roll, and Folk to create boot stomping jams, sing-a-long anthems, and a larger than life command of the stage.

Get ready for an unforgettable evening of music as Tom DiMenna and his talented band bring the iconic story songs of the 1970s to life. Featuring the timeless works of Cat Stevens, Gordon Lightfoot, and Harry Chapin, this heartfelt tribute showcases DiMenna’s remarkable ability to channel the vocal and musical style of these legendary artists. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or new to their music, this performance promises to stir your soul, get your toes tapping, and have you humming along to the songs that defined a generation.

Maine-based singer/songwriter Tom DiMenna has been captivating audiences with his rich voice, masterful guitar playing, and knack for storytelling. His debut album, You Know Me, My Devil Says, released in 2020, was followed by a sold-out tour of Cat Stevens’ classics in 2021. Expanding his repertoire, DiMenna now includes the works of Gordon Lightfoot and Harry Chapin in a broader celebration of 1970s story songs.

Accompanied by a skilled ensemble, Tom recreates the magic of these unforgettable tracks, making them resonate as deeply today as they did decades ago. From the gentle wisdom of Cat Stevens to the poetic narratives of Gordon Lightfoot and the poignant tales of Harry Chapin, this show is a must-see for lovers of meaningful music.

But there’s more to Tom than his musical prowess. A fascinating journey led him to this stage. “I’ve been playing since college,” Tom shares, “where I was a lowly hand signaler on the football team. Then I played a year of semi-pro football for the Bologna Warriors in Italy. The experience of quarterbacking an Italian football team was pretty funny. I spent the next decade working on a movie about it.”

Tom also honed his comedic talents at the prestigious Second City and other improv schools in Chicago, L.A., and New York. One of his sketches, where he hilariously portrayed the ghost of Telly Savalas in a lounge act, evolved into an off-Broadway show that ran for several years. Eventually, Tom returned to his first love: music, settling in Maine with his partner, Lauren, and sharing his extraordinary gifts with audiences far and wide.

Join him for this one-of-a-kind tribute that will transport you back to the heart and soul of the ’70s. The legend lives on!

Mono Means One - Psychedelic Rock Trio

Bassist and composer John Ferrara (Consider the Source, Soloist) is thrilled to share his newest prog/jazz venture Mono Means One ! Their debut album , Listless Playthings of Enormous Forces, was created by transforming a yurt into a fully functioning recording studio over the course of only 2 days. Ferrara, keyboardist Isaac Young and drummer Rob Madore (both of PX3) holed up in this yurt at Lakeside Retreats in Raleigh NC, and created something truly unique and powerful. Following is a bit about the band and why this is the best ever album recorded. In a yurt...

Mono Means One is an instrumental progressive/psychedelic trio flooring audiences up and down the east coast thanks to incredible musicianship, mixed with moody tones and poignant melodies. Their debut album will consist of 8 tracks, and sounds somewhere between Radiohead, The Mars Volta and Medeski Martin and Wood. Their well-balanced mix of improvisation and composition mixed with a keen sense of juxtaposition serves to bring listeners to the brink of insanity and then back home to a serene homeostasis several times over. Audiences fall in love with the unique, blended layers of sound, often not knowing whether to dance or simply revel in awe at John’s seamless simultaneous integration of Taurus pedals and bass tapping technique, Rob’s explosive energy behind the drum set or Issac’s mastery on the keys and manipulating sounds.

Leon Trout is a four-piece jam influenced rock band based out of Massachusetts that will shatter all of your expectations. With songs mixing rock, metal, funk, psychedelic rock, and more, you get the perfect mix of foot stompers and head bangers. Leon Trout is also known for creating their own cover mashups with seamless transitions from one song into another that are sure to surprise you.

Ian D'Arcangelo is a singer and songwriter from Connecticut who's style ranges from folk to

reggae to indie rock. While his music has a familiar sound, it pushes the boundaries of genre. Ian puts his heart into every song he writes. He released his debut record ‘Into The Great Unknown’ on October 8th, 2021.

Experience the timeless music of Pink Floyd's 'The Wall' Album like never before, an unforgettable night with Mauve Lloyd, Connecticut’s iconic Pink Floyd tribute band

Mauve Lloyd, a Connecticut-based Pink Floyd tribute entering its second decade, plays true-to-the-original covers of Pink Floyd’s entire catalog. They got their start on a sunny Saturday in June 2012, when a group of Hartford County friends and musicians from various local bands, brought a guitar and a blanket to a local Connecticut vineyard, drank wine, and quickly found they all shared a deep love and appreciation of Pink Floyd, as they sang along (and/or butchered) Dogs, the magnum opus from the 1977 Animals album. They decided it would be fun to try to cover The Wall at a party with friends. Word got around, and the “party” quickly outgrew its host, and had to be moved to a local bar. The event was a hit, and “Mauve Lloyd” – a cheeky take on “Pink Floyd” – was born. In the ten years since, the band has been paying tribute to Pink Floyd throughout the Northeast in bars, concert halls, and festivals, from Harry Brown’s in Starks, Maine, to Yasgur’s Farm in Bethel, N.Y., the site of the original Woodstock.

Donna The Buffalo is not just a band, rather one might say that Donna The Buffalo has become a lifestyle for its members and audiences. Since 1989, the roots rockers have played thousands of shows and countless festivals including Bonnaroo, Newport Folk Festival, Telluride, Austin City Limits Festival, Merle Fest, and Philadelphia Folk Festival.

They’ve opened for The Dead and have toured with Peter Rowan, Del McCoury, Los Lobos, Little Feat, Jim Lauderdale, Rusted Root, and Railroad Earth to name a few. They also toured with Ben & Jerry’s co-founder Ben Cohen to help raise awareness about increased corporate spending in politics.

In 1991, the band started the Finger Lakes Grassroots Festival in Trumansburg, NY. The four day festival has become an annual destination for over 15,000 music lovers every year and was started as an AIDS benefit. It continues as a benefit for arts and education. To date, the event has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars and is now one of three Grassroots Festivals; the Bi-annual Shakori Hills fest in North Carolina and Virginia Key festival in Florida. In 2016 GrassRoots Culture Camp was introduced in Trumansburg, New York as four days of music, art, dance and movement workshops, including nightly dinners and dances.
