SUMMARY:Robert Cray Band
DESCRIPTION:Groovin’ 50 Years \nBlues icon. Soul man. Rock and roller. Robert Cray is all these things – and more. The Georgiaborn\, Washington-raised musician first picked up a guitar after seeing The Beatles on TV then\, having witnessed Jimi Hendrix perform in Seattle\, determined that his destiny would follow a similar path. And so it turned out: across the past half-century Robert Cray has developed into one of American music’s most singular artists. \nFrom forming a teenage garage band\, through to striding the stage alongside several of the world’s greatest guitarists\, Robert Cray’s story is one of struggle and commitment. Struggle and commitment that led to Cray enjoying phenomenal success – selling millions of albums and countless concert tickets – while his skills as a band leader and performer mark him as a keeper of the flame for American roots music. \nCray’s commitment to making music of the highest order has won him both a loyal audience and the respect of many legendary figures. Robert Cray has shared stage and/or studio with the likes of John Lee Hooker and B.B. King\, Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters\, Albert Collins and Stevie Ray Vaughan\, the Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton\, Tina Turner and Buddy Guy\, the Memphis Horns and Hi Rhythm Section. \n– Cray’s 1986 breakthrough album Strong Persuader is the best selling blues album ever.\n– Cray has won five Grammy Awards.\n– Cray has been inducted into Hollywood’s Rock Walk and the Blues Hall of Fame.\n– Cray is recipient of the Americana Music Lifetime Achievement Award for Performance.\n– Cray has designed two signature model Fender guitars. \n“Nothing beats playing live\,” says Cray of his forthcoming US tour dates. “Audiences inspire me and my band to reach for the top every night.” Of his half century leading a rocking band he says\, “it’s been a great ride so far. And the best is yet to come.” \nThe Robert Cray Band consists of Richard Cousins (bass guitar)\, Dover Weinberg (keyboards)\, George Sluppick (drums) and Robert Cray (vocals/guitar).

SUMMARY:Paula Cole
DESCRIPTION:Paula Cole’s eleventh studio album\, “Lo” is devastatingly personal and utterly gorgeous. \nHer first album of original compositions in five years\, “Lo”’s eleven songs\, written entirely by Cole\, navigate her opening to trust again after indelible blows of life. As the first woman to ever be nominated for the Best Producer Grammy in her own right\, Paula Cole returns to the helm of recording as sole producer. On “Lo”\, her loyal bandmates of many years (musicians that are stars unto themselves) join Cole in the studio. “Lo” was recorded entirely live\, featuring full band performances from Jay Bellerose (drums)\, Chris Bruce (guitars)\, Ross Gallagher (upright and electric bass\, backing vocals) and Rich Hinman (pedal steel\, guitars). It was recorded and mixed by nine-time-Grammy-award-winning-engineer\, Mike Piersante\, whose unique sound is the canvas for “Lo.” \nThe autobiographies that are the songs of “Lo”\, are the newest Polaroid snapshots of Cole’s life. The focus is her most recent period of years\, saying goodbye to her friend and early collaborator\, Mark Hutchins\, on “The Replacements & Dinosaur Jr.”\, reflecting on her childhood’s psychological influence in “Follow The Moon”\, her primary relationship\, in which she wrestles inner demons in “Green Eyes Crying”\, lays down her “Invisible Armor” to find hope\, rebirth\, acceptance in “Monday\, Tuesday\, Wednesday\,” and physical intimacy in “take it take it take it”. Cole faces her identity in the spine-chilling\, redemptive “Wildflower”. “Lo” is a window to Paula Cole’s psyche. Continuing her social-justice writing through music\, Cole’s “Lo” reveals songs “Calling All Saviors” (a catchy pop gem)\, and “Letter From A Quarry Miner” (written from a North American quarryman\, to his European family during The Great Depression in 1932.) Cole weaves in the words of W. B. Yeats in “Golden Apples of the Sun ” while honoring Ray Bradbury in “Fahrenheit 451”. The song is a poem\, touching on the concept of the anthropocene and the frightening prospect of erasing history. With her eleventh studio album\, “Lo”\, Cole eloquently weaves the personal with the universal\, the shy with the provocative. She concludes with the uplifting “Flying Home”\, an homage to Max Erhmann’s “Desiderata”. \nFrom whispering poetry in a low alto range\, to opening her throat in primal scream\, Paula Cole’s voice is more commanding than ever\, revealing battle scars\, deep wisdom\, the soulfulness of gospel\, the urgency of rock\, and the sensitivity of folk. Cole plays piano\, Rhodes\, acoustic guitar\, clarinet and sings her artfully arranged background-vocals. She is a poet with a funky groove. \nCole has been a truth-teller\, a provocateur\, a feminist\, a rebel\, and a brilliant autobiographical writer who has pushed for personal honesty and social change. An artful weaver of genre\, she is difficult to categorize – she is simply Paula Cole. From her debut “Harbinger”\, in her androgynous combat boots and sensitive songs\, to the everlasting hits of “This Fire”\, to her genre-busting “Amen” (a neo-soul-touched tour de force) to a vibrant line of independent recordings on her own 675 Records label\, she has released music for over three decades\, recorded and performed with greats such as Peter Gabriel\, Dolly Parton\, Missy Elliot\, Meshell N’Degeocello\, Melissa Etheridge\, Herbie Hancock\, Sarah McLachlan\, Terri Lyne Carrington\, Emmylou Harris\, Nona Hendrix\, Paul Buchanan of The Blue Nile\, to John Paul White and Jason Isbell. \nShe was an instrumental force behind the historic Lilith Fair. Her songs have been covered by artists from Herbie Hancock and Annie Lennox\, to Lissie\, to HAIM\, sampled by hip hop artists\, and performed by choirs. Paula Cole has pushed buttons and boundaries\, declared truths and followed her own path of iconic vision. \nCole will be on tour in 2024 with concerts surrounding the release of “Lo”.

Required. $30-$22 \nTHERE IS NO OPENER FOR THIS SHOW! \nLaura Cortese has built a career weaving together a musical tapestry as diverse as it is masterful\, highlighted with experiences like playing the Newport Folk Festival with Pete Seeger in 2009\, standing onstage at the iconic Carnegie Hall in New York with Band of Horses in 2009\, and a stint touring alongside Uncle Earl in 2007. She has recorded with artists ranging from Aoife O’Donovan and Brittany Haas to Tao Rodriguez Seeger and Session Americana\, and has released 7 albums under her own name–All in Always (2016)\, Into the Dark (2013)\, Simple Heart (2012)\, Two Amps 1 Microphone (2011)\, Acoustic Project (2010)\, Blow the Candle Out (2007)\, Even the Lost Creek (2006)\, and Hush (2004).

SUMMARY:Arun Ramamurthy Trio

Enjoy the explosive and effervescent sound hailed by All About Jazz as “a beautiful\, exotic\, ear-opening listening experience.” \nArun Ramamurthy Trio (ART) brings together South Indian classical Carnatic music and contemporary jazz. Boundaries are blurred in this organic and seamless integration of styles as the group expands on traditional forms in explosive\, improvisational flights of fancy.

His commissioned work from CMA’s New Jazz Works\, “New Moon Suite” shines a light on the teachings and wisdom of our ancestors\, and the lessons we take on our own personal journeys. The 4-movement work premiered in late 2022 in NYC\, and will be released as a studio recording in 2024. \nFeatured performance venues have include Jazz at Lincoln Center\, Bimhuis (Amsterdam)\, LantarenVenster (Rotterdam)\, Joe’s Pub\, The Jazz Gallery\, Ragas Live Festival at Pioneer Works\, Kennedy Center\, Philadelphia Museum of Art\, Cornelia Street Cafe\, Brooklyn Raga Massive and more.

Thompson and Kaitlyn Pietras | Sound Designer: Palmer Hefferan | Choreographer: David Neumann | Dramaturg: Paul Cremo \nYannick Nézet-Séguin (Conductor)\, Emily D’Angelo (Jess)\, Ben Bliss (Eric) \nTony Award–winning composer Jeanine Tesori’s powerful new opera Grounded premieres at the Metropolitan Opera\, wrestling with often-overlooked issues created by 21st-century warmaking: the ethical conflicts created by the use of modern military technology and the psychological and emotional toll supposedly safe remote technology takes on our servicepersons.

American tenor Ben Bliss costars as the Wyoming rancher Eric in a production by Michael Mayer that brings this story to life in a high-tech staging which presents a variety of perspectives on the action. Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes the podium to conduct Tesori’s kaleidoscopic opera\, which will be transmitted live from the Met stage to cinemas on October 19. \nApprox. runtime: 2:44 [1 Intermission]

SUMMARY:An Evening with Robert Ellis Orrall with an afterparty featuring Funbucket
DESCRIPTION:10/17/24\nReserved seating and G.A. Standing 7:00pm doors / 7:30pm show\n21+\, Positive I.D. Required $15-30 \nJoin us for a night of stories and songs from renowned songwriter and producer Robert Ellis Orrall. He and his original band from the 80’s will be playing songs he wrote for and with Taylor Swift\, Reba McEntire\, Lindsay Lohan\, Michael McDonald and hundreds of other legendary artists. \nWhen RCA Records signed Robert Ellis Orrall in 1980 he had his dream band: Kook Lawry on guitar\, Don Walden on bass and David Stefanelli on the drums. 44 years later they are back on the road and in the studio. Part of a New Wave of Boston artists that included The Stompers\, Jon Butcher Axis\, Til Tuesday and The Neighborhoods\, REO rocked legendary venues like The Rat\, The Paradise and The Orpheum Theater. The band’s critically acclaimed albums\, “Fixation”\, “Contain Yourself”\, and “Special Pain” were recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales with producer Roger Bechirian (Elvis Costello\, Squeeze)\, and supported with tours opening for U2\, The Kinks\, Psychedelic Furs and countless others. And their Top 40 smash hit with Carlene Carter “I Couldn’t Say No” still stands\nas an 80’s classic. \nWhen Robert moved to Nashville to write and produce\, Kook\, Don and David lent their talents to artists like Peter Wolf (J. Geils)\, Barry Goudreau & Brad Delp (Boston)\, Carlene Carter\, Brian Maes\, Nick Lowe and many more. \nRobert Ellis Orrall has had over 350 songs (and five #1 songs) cut around the world and soundtracked in TV and movies llke “The Bourne Identity”\, “Hannah Montana” and “Freaky Friday”. He produced tracks for Love and Theft\, Cake Bake Betty and Taylor Swift’s 10X Platinum debut and followup EP. \nThe band regrouped to reminisce\, tour and record “467 Surf And Gun Club”\, an album John Hiatt called “absolutely joyful”\, Michael McDonald called “relevant and timeless’\, and said American Songwriter “The melodies\, counter melodies\, and killer performances constitute a unique\nblend of ‘60s-pop-meets-modern-indie songwriting.” \nThe band is touring from now to forever\, playing songs from all of their albums and albums to come\, listed below. The old cliche “Let’s get the band back together” has come to life with these four best friends playing\ntheir best music.
