that something special is taking place.

Lisa Marie
at the Purple Eggplant Cafe |
Get All Shook Up with Lisa Marie and
some of the best performers in New England. Attending a Lisa Marie
show is like opening a box of Cracker Jacks. There's always a surprise
inside. Lisa dispenses her Blues with equal parts of sass n' class
and she does so with a rotating cast of the region's finest Blues
performers. Whomever the guest artist of the night is, Lisa always
manages to inject her vibrant enthusiasm for the music front and
center.

of the Blues, look no further than the Moondance Blues Band. Having a
mission of "keeping the Blues alive," the band is doing just
that. The members, all in their teens, are Seth Wotton,
Daniel Banks, Linnea Burgess and
Pat Murphy. Together, they

The Soulcats
at the Onset Bay Blues Cafe |
Classic soul and R&B played with precision
and finesse is the name of the game here. Wes James and Stu Johnston
anchor the rhythm section while Dave Richardson comps effortlessly behind
the vocals until it's time to pounce into a perfectly executed solo.
All of this sets up a solid
foundation from which Melissa Barbosa weaves her magic spell. A stunning
performer, her enthusiasm is contagious. Don't think you're leaving without
a smile and a dance.
