SUMMARY:The Far Out & Residual Groove
DESCRIPTION:Reserved Rail Seats $25 + $6.95 service fee\nGA Standing $15 + $6.95 service fee\n$30/$20 + $6.95 service fee day of show\n7:00pm Doors / 7:30pm Show\n18+\, Positive I.D. Required. \nThe Far Out is a funk and soul pop band from Boston\, Massachusetts. The six powerhouse musicians have been playing together since they were kids – learning and growing through shared experiences in jazz\, theatre\, a cappella\, and orchestra. Now\, The “New Act of the Year” recipient at the New England Music Awards engage their audiences with lush vocals and groovy horn lines\, supported by undeniable chemistry and raw star quality. Their goal is to include audiences in their infectious joy and spread the love of funk and soul music. \nTaking after the likes of Fleetwood Mac\, Eagles\, and Earth\, Wind & Fire\, The Far Out is stacked with multiple lead singers and songwriters. Their genre is a cohesion of their individual tastes and influences\, brought together by a shared aim to entertain and inspire. You’ll often catch the group of multi-instrumentalists switching roles during their shows — passing guitars around\, moving from lead vocals to horn section\, or stealing a moment behind the keys. \nSince their formation in summer ‘21\, TFO has quickly become a notable part of the Greater Boston music community. The band is involved with local organizations such as Lungstrong\, Ipswich Caring\, Team Haverhill\, the Pelican Intervention Fund\, and Friends of Ipswich Elementary Schools (FRIES). The group’s debut EP — self-titled\, The Far Out — was named Indie Boulevard’s Best EP of 2023. In 2024\, they followed up the award-winning EP with two explosive singles\, “See Red (You’re Dead)” and “Packed to Go.” Their latest\, “Funkadelic Gas\,” is a total groove-fest and a celebration of the group’s chemistry and musicianship. \nhttps://thefarout.band \nHailing from Norwalk\, Connecticut\, Residual Groove has quickly earned a reputation for marrying high-octane jam-rock energy with disciplined musicianship. Founded by brothers Kiran Edwards (keys / vocals) and Previn Edwards (guitar / vocals)\, the quintet now features the melodic low-end wizardry of Ryan Berry on bass\, alongside the explosive Henry Thomas (drums) and percussive ace Garrett Halstead. Ryan’s arrival in 2025 has deepened the band’s pocket and opened new improvisational avenues\, adding a fresh\, muscular dimension to their sound. \nResidual Groove’s 2024 debut album In Dream Time drew praise from peers and tastemakers across the jam scene for its forward-thinking arrangements and fearless sonic exploration. Members of Goose\, Eggy\, and Neighbor have publicly lauded the record’s inventive blend of kaleidoscopic keyboards\, searing guitar lines\, and airtight rhythm work. \nOnstage\, the band treats every composition as a launchpad\, spinning structured songs into adventurous yet purposeful improvisations that keep crowds guessing—and dancing. That chemistry has landed them support slots with scene heavyweights Andy Frasco\, Dogs in a Pile\, Karina Rykman\, Vasudo\, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong\, Melt\, and more. Each performance reaffirms Residual Groove’s knack for turning a set list into a narrative journey\, seamlessly weaving one musical chapter into the next. \nWith a reinforced lineup\, an acclaimed debut under their belt\, and a relentless drive to push the boundaries of modern jam-rock\, Residual Groove is staking their claim as one of the Northeast’s most compelling live acts—one ecstatic\, exploratory show at a time.

SUMMARY:Evil Dead in Concert - Screening w/ Live Original Score
DESCRIPTION:Evil Dead In Concert\, a live-to-film experience that thrills and chills\, resurrects Sam Raimi’s beloved cult classic in a way audiences have never seen before — in this lifetime. \nThe legendary film will be screened in a newly restored format and brought to life on stage while a live ensemble performs the entire revamped original musical score from composer Joe LoDuca. \nLoDuca began his film career by composing this iconic score for director Sam Raimi\, and went on to win multiple Emmys for his scoring work. Most recently\, Joe released a reimagining and re-recording of the original Evil Dead score called “Evil Dead: A Nightmare Reimagined\,” where he re-recorded and expanded on the original musical themes of the movie. \nEvil Dead follows five college students on vacation in an isolated cabin in the woods\, where they unwittingly release absolute evil into the world and have to fight to survive. This indie classic is known as one of the most significant cult horror films of all time\, and has generated a massive following worldwide since its release.

SUMMARY:Rachel Feinstein
DESCRIPTION:Actress and Comedian Rachel Feinstein is a favorite among fans and fellow comedians alike. Named one of Variety’s “10 Comics To Watch” of 2024\, her Netflix standup special Big Guy premiered in May 2024 on the streamer’s list of Top 10 TV Shows in the U.S. where it remained for over a week. The hour invites viewers into Rachel’s delightfully chaotic life as the wife of a firefighter\, a mother\, and a comedian. In the words of her 3-year-old daughter\, “my daddy’s a hero and my mommy’s sarcastic.” Rachel explores her marriage to a first responder who is also married to his firehouse family and unpacks what it’s like to navigate emotional intimacy with someone whose job it is to save people’s lives. Chock full of her signature “amazing impersonations” (Vulture)\, Big Guy endears us to the lovable hodgepodge of characters in Rachel’s world. \nFeinstein appeared on Comedy Central’s hit series Inside Amy Schumer and she won a WGA Award for “Best Comedy/Variety Sketch Series” for her work on the most recent season of the show on Paramount+. She was featured on Comedian Colin Quinn’s HBO pandemic special Colin Quinn & Friends: A Parking Lot Comedy Show as well as comedy superstar Chris Rock’s feature film Top Five. Her half hour special premiered on Netflix’s hit series The Standups and her first hour special Only Whores Wear Purple premiered on Comedy Central.\nFeinstein was featured alongside Amy Schumer in Hulu’s hit series Life & Beth and she recurred on Amazon’s critically acclaimed Steven Soderbergh series Red Oaks as well as Judd Apatow’s HBO comedy Crashing. She also appeared in the role of “Anne Frank” in Netflix’s Historical Roasts. \nOn the big screen\, Rachel was seen in the feature films Trainwreck and I Feel Pretty. She has also lent her voice to Adult Swim’s Venture Brothers and the phenomenally successful GRAND THEFT AUTO video game franchise. She is a fan favorite on the late-night circuit with multiple appearances on HBO’s Last Week Tonight\, CBS’s The Late Late Show with James Corden\, and NBC’s The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

SUMMARY:Walking Tour: Ed & Jo Hopper’s Houses\, Views from Portuguese Hill
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, September 27\, 2025\n10:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.\nCape Ann Museum Courtyard\, Downtown Campus\n27 Pleasant St\, Gloucester\, MA\, 01930\n$10 for CAM Members\, $20 for non-members\nRegistration Required \nExplore the specific sites in the area of Gloucester known as Portuguese Hill depicted by renowned American realist painter Edward Hopper (1882-1967). Hopper is known to have painted in Gloucester on five separate occasions in the first decades of the 20th century. His paintings from this period capture the local landscape and architecture in a loosely rendered\, light-filled style and are considered by many to be some of his finest works. Also included are sites painted by Josephine Nivison Hopper (1883-1968)\, Hopper’s wife and artist in her own right\, whose work gained recognition long before her future husband’s success. Learn how this hillside neighborhood that the Hoppers travelled together inspired their artwork\, as well as the role the area plays in Gloucester history. \nIf you have enjoyed one of our Hopper’s Houses Downtown tours\, the Portuguese Hill tour takes you to another side of the city to see different views. It’s well worth the experience! \nStroll with a CAM Docent for about 1 1/2 hours towards Portuguese Hill and back to downtown Gloucester. This walking tour includes steep stairs and a length of the hill. \nWhere to Meet?\nThough the Downtown Campus is currently closed for renovations until the spring of 2026\, the tour will gather at the courtyard attached to the Museum on 27 Pleasant Street. Tours are light rain or shine. \nPhoto Credit: CAM docent leading walking tour\, CAM staff photo.
