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.

Shaun Dever at the School's Out Summer Concert Series, June 5, 2009.

We’ve got 2 amazing shows this weekend: On Friday, Shaun Dever will rocking the stage, freshly back from a surfing excursion to Costa Rica. He’ll be joined by our good friends Ben Carter and Nick Amendolare. Then on Saturday, we’ve got the big Boston launch party for TRANZMISSION, a great indie music blog by our friend Ryan Wood – that show will feature JAKE HILL and GREG LOFTUS. This is all going down at Sweetwater Cafe in Boston: 10pm, 21+, $5 cover. See our SHOWS page for more info and other shows!

FREE STUFF?? Yes, that’s right. Just last week, Ben Carter joined us in the studio for The Brewster Sessions, and tomorrow Shaun will be doing the same. We’ve also got a few Brewster Session tracks from Nick A that we recorded during the summer. SO, if you come to the show on Friday, you’ll get a free mini-album sample download of The Brewster Sessions, Volume 1 (which we’re working on for release this summer….stay tuned). If you come to the show, we’ll give you a little piece of paper with a code on it and you can download it from our forthcoming online music store.

Don’t miss these shows (and your free music!!!). You’ll also want to head on over to the School’s Out Summer Concert Series site for pretty much constant updates to the schedule. We’ve already got a bunch of artists booked. Take a look!

See you at the shows!

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!!
