SUMMARY:WERS 617 Day
DESCRIPTION:WERS 617 Day\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Boston’s uncommon radio station for 617 Day! Stop by UnCommon to see some of WERS’ favorite local talent\, fun games and activities from sponsors\, and as always great beer from Harpoon and elevated Mexican street food from El Jefe’s! \n\n\n\n\n\nFeatured Artists\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJules Grace\n\n\n\nJules Grace is an independent artist from Boston who just released her debut album “Diaries & Daydreams.”  She has been playing guitar since she was nine and grew up playing in cover bands. Jules enjoys making a variety of music\, ranging from dreamy indie-pop to heavier rock. Performing on radio station WERS\, Musicians Wanted\, and local venues around Boston\, Jules has been gaining momentum in her music career. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n@musicbyjulesgrace \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDave Herlihy\n\n\n\nDave Herlihy’s first single “This Life” from the upcoming album “now” will be available on streaming services everywhere on June 17. \n\n\n\n“This Life” features Dave’s one-of-a-kind voice and the O Positive rhythm section of Dave Ingham and Ken Hickey along with local guitar legend Kevin Barry and background vocalist Jenna Shorey. \n\n\n\nAll the songs on “now” focus on the experience being in the moment amid the transience of everything.  \n\n\n\nStay tuned for more Dave Herlihy songs from “now” throughout 2025. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nwww.herlihymusic.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKristin Cifelli\n\n\n\nBoston Music Award Nominee\, Kristin Cifelli has been singing in and around the Boston music scene for the better part of 25 years. She has toured the country\, sharing the stage with artists such as Jeffrey Gaines\, Chris Trapper\, Marshall Crenshaw\, and Rita Wilson.  Kristin’s 2011 release\, Middle of Nowhere\, attracted the attention of folks from hipsters to hippies\, with its earthy\, yet modern sound. Check out her latest releases on all streaming platforms. “Kristin Cifelli’s voice is a practiced instrument; she is in full control while singing with thrilling emotion – striking\, tender at one moment – then powerful\, soaring\, carrying us along to a musical and lyrical peak.” (WCUW 91.3 FM\, Worcester) “…She’s got the voice\, the talent and the originality while she breaks from the pack of local songwriters with the best of devices: realness.” (Northeast Performer). “The music has a twangy dreaminess about it that would make Chris Isaak sit up and take notice.”  (indie-music.com). “…I think there’s no justice if she doesn’t become really successful…” (Brad Delp of BOSTON); and simply\, “Stunning” (Cape Cod Journal). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n@kristincifellimusic \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nwww.kristincifelli.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWill Dailey\n\n\n\nWill Dailey’s seventh album BOYS TALKING is the one he’s not releasing.  \n\n\n\nOh\, you’ll get to hear it\, if you buy a vinyl copy\, CD\, or download it directly from him. But it won’t be a matter of opening up a streaming platform and pressing play on a chosen date with thousands of other releases. With a record he considers his best work\, Will wanted to find another way to celebrate and enjoy the process of sharing the album for more than a day or week. “Music is supposed to be a joyful expression of self that connects us to other people\,” Will says. “I want to instill a more personal\, joyful process of sharing my work.” \n\n\n\nOriginally from Boston\, Massachusetts\, Dailey has spent the last decade-and-a-half mastering a twisted\, Americana psychedelia that evokes underground legends like Cass McCombs\, Kevin Morby\, and Jeff Tweedy. Like these beloved\, offbeat icons\, there’s no bending to the music industry machine in his catalog. Rather than try to slot himself into a single genre\, era\, or sound\, Will has always let the songs do what they want—marketing plans and genre programming be damned. Independent but not really indie\, the strains of the blues\, rock\, funk and folk continue to permeate his sound across the years. Rather than a brand of sound\, Dailey is a student of the American roots songbook\, and a champion of masterful pop hooks.  \n\n\n\nIn fact\, the most consistent through line of his career is recognition from artists of a certain caliber. He’s repeatedly performed with Eddie Vedder\, played alongside Peter Buck of R.E.M.\, spent 2023 opening for Jakob Dylan and The Wallflowers\, and was tapped to pay tribute to Richie Havens at the 2024 Folk\, Americana\, Roots Hall of Fame induction. In that sense\, BOYS TALKING is a culmination of sorts. Not just concerning the idiosyncratic methods of an artist who’s routinely gone the long way around\, but as a mountaintop release from a musician\, writer\, and performer who is a visionary artist in every sense of the word. On this album\, which was funded in part by a local arts grant\, Will insisted on getting a murderer’s row of studio musicians in one room\, together\, to record live: Dave Brophy\, Fabiola Mend​​éz\, Cody Nilsen\, Juliana Hatfield\, Jeremy Moses Curtis\, Andrew Stern\, Abie Barrett\, Kevin Barry\, Alisa Amador and James Rohr. That sense of camaraderie and fellowship\, across ten days of playing music together\, you might say it was… boys talking (even though the presence of women on this record is essential to the DNA). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n@willdaileyofficial \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n@willdailey \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nwww.willdailey.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAir Traffic Controller\n\n\n\nAir Traffic Controller have created a place all their own in the indie pop world. \n\n\n\nServing in the US Navy as an air traffic controller\, singer/songwriter Dave Munro sent home demos written during deployment. These early songs circulated through family\, friends\, and beyond\, sparking an initial fanbase. This was chapter one for ATC.In the decade that followed\, Dave built a legacy for crafting heartfelt\, luscious and genuine indie-folk-pop songs that are timeless and classic. Since emerging from the Boston scene in 2009\, the group\, which also includes drummer Adam Salameh\, bassist Joe Campbell\, guitarist Bobby Borenstein\, vocalist/keytarist Emi McSwain\, and multi-instrumentalist Steve Scott\, has released 5 critically applauded albums and toured the U.S. + U.K.ATC took their time writing and demoing their latest album and their audience has not left their side. While streaming to over 400 thousand monthly listeners on Spotify alone\, they recorded “DASH” throughout the pandemic\, where they met several delays and hardships\, but stayed the course\, bringing the next chapter of ATC to its debut. On the new album the band is heard together in Dimension Sound Studios with Boston producer/ engineer Dan Cardinal (Darlingside\, Henry Jamison\, Josh Ritter\, Ballroom Thieves) along with longtime ATC collaborators Seth Kasper and Adrian Aiello. The goal was not to match up with previous albums\, or meet some expectation\, in fact\, ATC’s formulas were often set aside\, allowing further exploration among the group. Loyal fans of ATC’s stories\, charm\, nostalgia\, hooks\, will be drawn in from the very first line “It was chapter one”\, and surely stick around for the journey.Air Traffic Controller have achieved a lot over their career. Their category-defying organic/electronic sound\, and knack for connecting with all ages and types of listeners\, has kept them on everyone’s radar. They were Billboard Hot 100 Fest performers with The Weeknd and Justin Bieber\, placed on the NPR Hot 100 List for SXSW\, named Guardian UK Band of the Day\, won Best Indie Alternative Song for “You Know Me” in the Independent Music Awards\, and have multiple songs achieving millions of streams on Spotify. ATC’s music has been licensed by Bose\, MTV\, NBC\, ABC\, Disney\, Verizon\, Toyota\, and many more. They’ve played Sundance with ASCAP\, Sixthman Rock Boat cruise with bands like NEEDTOBREATHE\, Michael Franti\, Jukebox The Ghost\, and Bronze Radio Return. The band played SXSW showcases for McDonalds\, the Grammy Museum\, and was featured on Jeff Regan’s Alt Nation playlist of bands to watch. Their music video for “The House” earned rotation on MTVU\, MTV2\, was featured by Funny Or Die\, won a Boston Music Award\, New England Music Award\, was Improper Bostonian’s “Boston’s Best” Music Video\, and was named Best Video by Boston Magazine.  Vanyaland calls ATC an evolution forward featuring “crafty alt-pop\, an expansion of depth and sound\, catchy hooks”. One Stop Record Shop in the UK states “equal parts fascinating and brilliant”.  Songs from ATC have been featured by Gary Vaynerchuk in the Daily Vee\, EA Sports NHL\, UK top reality show Made In Chelsea. At radio\, WERS and WXRV have been constant supporters\, as well as Top 40 Mix 93.3 in KC\, KX 93.5 Laguna CA\, KCSN & KXLU Los Angeles\, WLCA IL\, WHSN ME\, KXTE LV\, KTCL CO and more. CLIF Bar\, Quiznos\, and Boston Harbor Distillery have worked with ATC\, as well as MyMusicRX out of Portland\, OR.  On the road ATC has hit Summerfest\, Ann Arbor Summer Festival\, Denver’s Beaver Creek Music Experience and will continue to play shows throughout the year in support of DASH. Air Traffic Controller is from Boston and features:Dave Munro\, Adam Salameh\, Joe Campbell\, Bobby Borenstein\, Emi McSwain\, & Steve Scott \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n@ATCmusic \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n@ATCmusic  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nwww.AirTrafficControllerMusic.com
