SUMMARY:Reverie 73 presents 420 Day with Gracie Curran & the High Falutin Band
DESCRIPTION:4/20/2024\n21+\, 7:30p Doors / 8:30p show \n2014 Boston Music Awards winner\, Blues Artist of the Year! \nBoston Globe critic Steve Morse called the singer “a force of nature” with a “Mavis Staples-like voice.” \nSteven Ovadia of American Blues Scene says Gracie Curran‘s voice is reminiscent of Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes. \nOccasionally a vocalist comes along with such presence that they command everyones undivided attention. Such is the case with Bostons Gracie Curran. She has earned her reputation for jaw dropping Blues & Soul in every blues club and juke joint from Boston to Beale Street. There is nothing subtle in her booming big mama voice. Taking a line sometimes trod by Etta\, Janis and Shemekia\, Gracie drives a high pulse and drains the emotional bucket dry.

SUMMARY:Soggy Po Boys
DESCRIPTION:The Soggy Po Boys\, native to New England\, have quickly become an institution. They are spreading the good news of New Orleans music across the northeast and beyond\, playing at concert halls and street corners; music festivals and burlesque festivals; bars and libraries; wherever the party requires. Part of the beauty of New Orleans music is that it’s celebrated and appreciated wherever it goes\, from the street to the theater. \nThe Po Boys formed in 2012 to shake the walls of a local club on a Fat Tuesday but have honed their sound and become more than a Mardi Gras centerpiece. Exploring the vast musical traditions of New Orleans and expanding their repertoire to look beyond NOLA jazz\, the band includes traditional Caribbean tunes (it’s been said that New Orleans is the northernmost city in the Caribbean)\, as well as Meters funk\, soul\, and brass band / street beat music. There are a myriad of traditions that flow into New Orleans culture just as there are tributaries that feed the Mississippi\, and the Po Boys are eager to explore what makes the music of New Orleans so damn special. You’ll hear the heavy influence of the New Orleans sound across the band and in the stories told by their original tunes. Despite the scope of its sound\, the outfit is only seven people\, and thrives on the interplay and group dynamics that bring this music to life. \nThe Soggy Po Boys are:​ \nStu Dias- Vocals / Guitar\nEric Klaxton- Clarinet/Sop. Sax\nNick Mainella- Tenor Sax\nJosh Gagnon – Trombone\nMike Effenberger- Piano\nScott Kiefner- Upright Bass\nBrian Waterhouse – Drums/Percussion
