Brewster Productions

Howdy everyone. Hopefully you’re following along with the School’s Out Summer Concert Series, which is in full swing right now in Plymouth. But in other Brewster news, we’re working on releasing “The Brewster Sessions, Vol. 1″, a collection of Storyteller-type in-studio live recordings we did with Ben Carter, Shaun Dever, Nick Amendolare, and Seth McFadyen. You can check out and download a sneak peek of the album HERE, and listen below to a recording we did with Ben on the day he came in for his Brewster Session. More for fun than anything else (it’s not a live recording like the rest of the Sessions), it’s “41″ by Dave Matthews, performed by Ben Carter:

Enjoy, and don’t forget to come to the FREE School’s Out Summer Concert Series in Plymouth, MA all summer long!

Shaun Dever is joined on stage by Ben Carter at Sweetwater 3/19/10.

What a show we had last night. Wow. From right before the show when Seth McFadyen and Ben Carter went outside of Sweetwater into the street and played “Semi Charmed Life” and “Island In the Sun”, to Ben unplugging his guitar and singing Jewel on a chair in the middle of the crowd, to Shaun Dever leading a group amorphous jam of “What I Got”, this show was something else.

Hero Ben Carter.

Last night at Sweetwater Cafe in Boston, Shaun Dever, Ben Carter, and Seth McFadyen rocked the crowd for an incredible night of wild acoustic jams and packed-room sing-alongs. At one point, Ben even called a girl from the crowd, sat her in a chair in front of him and played a song for her – she apparently was from Switzerland, which led Ben to thank her by saying, “Welcome to America.” Seth put on a great last-minute opening set, and Shaun rounded off the night with his rad tunes and some more great sing-along jams.

Last night we were giving out little flyers for a FREE DOWNLOAD of the Brewster Sessions, Volume 1 sneak peek album. More on the actual album later. But for now, go download the 6-song album for free here: brewsterproductions.bandcamp.com.

TONIGHT: Jake Hill and Greg Loftus will be playing at Sweetwater for the launch party of TRANZMISSION, the indie music blog of Ryan Wood. If you come tonight, you can get your digital hands on a free download of Greg Loftus’ EP courtesy of Tranzmission.

Now, here are a multitude of photos from last night. Thanks to Shaun Dever for some of them, and for the nice settings he put in the camera for the ones of him. We’ll add some video soon.

See you all tonight!!
