A crazy weekend of Sean P. Rogan, Shaun Dever, and a band of mummies at Sweetwater in Boston

Posted on March 29, 2010 by Jon Dorn

Sean P. Rogan is joined onstage at Sweetwater Cafe 3/27/10 by Dan Stoppelman of Big D and the Kids Table.

It was a wacky weekend at Sweetwater Cafe in Boston, where everything from a band full of mummies to a pair of musicians from Big D and the Kids Table rocked the house.

Friday night, Electric Mummy unwrapped their punk-metal sound, then on Saturday Sean P. Rogan packed the house and at some points required some bouncer backup from upstairs. At an acoustic show. It got a little rowdy and it was a great time – he was also joined for a few songs on stage by Big D trumpet player Dan Stoppelman who lent his trumpet and melodica talents. Shaun Dever opened up the night with a great crowd pleasing set of his own.

Starting next week we’ll be hosting Singer-Songwriter Night at Sweetwater every thursday night. We’ll have a show announcement for you very soon about APRIL 8th, which will be our first show.

Enjoy the photos!

Jake Hill and Greg Loftus bring the blues to Sweetwater in Boston

Posted on March 23, 2010 by Jon Dorn

Jake Hill performs at Sweetwater Cafe 3/20/10.

We helped writer Ryan Wood put on the Boston launch party for his blog, Tranzmission, at Sweetwater Cafe in Boston this past Saturday, with the help of Jake Hill and Greg Loftus. It was a great, bluesy, folky show, and Jake Hill rocked the place with a 3-piece acoustic band. You can expect to see both of these amazing guys this summer at the concert series. Check out the photos below!

Next weekend: Electric Mummy on Friday, then SEAN P. ROGAN (of Big D and the Kids Table ) on Saturday. Check SHOWS for all the info.

Marching the beat of Brewster: A full month of ‘sweet’ music and a big track meet

Posted on March 1, 2010 by Jon Dorn

Sean P. Rogan, of Big D and the Kids Table, will perform on March 27th. Don't miss that show.

Happy March everyone!

We’re very excited to say that, not only because it means it’s getting closer to spring, and maybe some nice weather, but also because we have a crazily awesome March schedule for everyone to enjoy. To start off the shows this month (all of which are at Sweetwater Cafe in Boston), we’ve got the southern bluesy-folk stylings of Greg Loftus this friday 3/5. Then next week, while we hammer away at the Nike Indoor Nationals track meet at the Reggie Lewis center, we’ve got The Okay Win and Big Big Buildings 3/12 and an open spot 3/13 (let us know if you want to play). March 19-20 we’ve got a Plymouth-in-Boston weekend, featuring our very good friend Shaun Dever on 3/19 – on 3/20, our other very good friend, indie music writer Ryan Wood is hosting the Boston launch party for his awesome blog, Tranzmission, which will feature the incomparable folk stylings of Jake Hill and Greg Loftus. Then, if you thought that was enough, to round off the month, we’ve got Electric Mummy (yes, they are mummies) on 3/26, and here’s the big one: SEAN P. ROGAN of Big D and the Kids Table on 3/27. You can check out all the show details by clicking those links, or going to the SHOWS page.

Needless to say (but I’ll say it anyway), it’s going to be a great Brewster month. So please come out to the shows, if you’re 21 that is, and don’t you worry kids under 21, we haven’t forgotten about you. We’ll be having more all ages shows than you can shake a stick at very soon. (and hey, if you’re a band and you’re planning to put on a show at an Elks Club or KoC sorta thing, give us a shout and we’ll do some sound for ya)

See you at the shows!!

PPS – unfortunately, this probably won’t be the last time I use the ‘sweet’ pun in a post.

A Plymouth-in-Boston weekend coming this march to a Sweetwater near you (feat. The Tranzmission indie music blog launch party)

Posted on February 23, 2010 by Jon Dorn

Shaun Dever, performing 3/19 at Sweetwater Cafe, is also our main graphics and poster guy here at Brewster. So, without his computer while surfing the days away in Costa Rica, this is the poster he came up with.

This will be a great weekend. On March 19, Shaun Dever will rock the Sweetwater Cafe in his ‘back in the USA’ debut show after surfing his way through Costa Rica for some time (see the photo). Then the very next day, March 20, our good friend and international indie music writer Ryan Wood will be hosting the official Boston launch party of his new music blog, The Tranzmission, which will feature the incomparable JAKE HILL w/ another incredible mainstay of ours, Greg Loftus – it’s sure to be a bluesy, folksy night.

So you’re probably beginning to see that March at Sweetwater Cafe in Boston, presented by Brewster Productions, is going to be a pretty rad time. Make sure you check out the show schedule because we’ve got 7 SHOWS coming up featuring the likes of Sean P. Rogan (of Big D and the Kids Table), The Okay Win, Big Big Buildings, Nate Cristofori, Electric Mummy and more. It’s gonna be a great month as we get geared up for the big 3rd season of the School’s Out Summer Concert Series. (and yes, we know all these shows at sweetwater are unfortunately 21+, but you just wait a tiny bit longer and we’ll make it up to you and then some)

Later!
Jon
