SUMMARY:Ash & Eric
DESCRIPTION:Ash & Eric have never shied away from life’s hard edges. Hailing from the gritty heart of the Industrial Revolution — Worcester\, Massachusetts — the two find consolation in discovering the beauty of being artists in the most stubbornly independent city in the north east.

SUMMARY:Already Dead
DESCRIPTION:Dan Cummings\, singer songwriter of Already Dead (Boston-based working class punk rock) brings an intimate yet energetic set of music. His performance contains anthemic songs of self reflection and working class social commentary in a folk-punk style. Already Dead’s debut album My Collar is Blue was recorded at The Bridge Sound and Stage in Cambridge\, Mass.\, and the seven-song sampler platter of punk – led by three singles in “Stability\,” the title track\, and “City’s Burnin’” – was released in October 2022\, helping earn Already Dead a nomination for Punk Artist of the Year at the 2022 Boston Music Awards.  \n\n\n\n“If The Clash were dubbed the ‘thinking man’s yobs\, maybe we can call Already Dead the ‘thinking man’s Massholes’?”-Hump Day New  \n\n\n\n“The anthemic “My Collar Is Blue\,” a street-punk fight song fueled by folk mindfulness\, a slight outlaw country twang\, and proper nods to their Celtic heritage (complete with bodhrán and mandolin)\, roars out of the speakers with an impassioned\, all-together fury. It’s a heavy battlecry\, relaying a message that carries forward from generation to generation.”- NEW NOISE MAGAZINE 11/16/22 \n\n\n\n@already_dead_music

SUMMARY:Grace Givertz
DESCRIPTION:Born and raised in Jupiter\, Florida\, Grace Givertz (she/her) has been writing songs and performing since she was eleven years old. Following her first EP The Light in 2017\, Grace turned her wit to grit when she released her independent record Year of the Horse (2019). Playing guitar\, banjo\, mandolin\, and harmonica in addition to vocals\, Year of the Horse showcases Grace’s ability to turn lemons into lemonade. She writes openly about living with chronic illness and how it has affected every aspect of her life\, turning tragedy into a triumphant debut. \n\n\n\nSince her arrival in Boston in 2016\, Grace Givertz has been featured in several publications including The Boston Globe\, Vanyaland\, and Allston Pudding. A two-time Boston Music Award nominee\, Grace has performed at well-loved Boston venues including Club Passim\, Brighton Music Hall\, The Burren\, and Great Scott. In 2022\, Grace was invited to join the inaugural cohort of the Harvard Ed Portal’s artist pipeline program. Grace is currently facilitating a series of songwriting workshops at Harvard with a focus on accessible music education. \n\n\n\nGrace is currently recording her sophomore album\, which will exclusively feature musicians and collaborators from BIPOC\, LGBTQ\, and disabled communities. The inclusion we long to see in the folk community will not happen if we do not employ the people who have so long been excluded. She is a 2022 Live Arts Boston grant recipient from The Boston Foundation supporting her next album. \n\n\n\n“The only real option is to smile at how much [Grace] packs into a tiny punch of a song.”  – digboston \n\n\n\ngracegivertz.com \n\n\n\nPhoto Credit: Omari Spears

SUMMARY:The Rupert Selection Acoustic
DESCRIPTION:The Rupert Selection is an American psychedelic grunge band from Boston\, Massachusetts. Comprising Reilly Somach (guitar/vocals)\, Sam Bouve (bass/vocals)\, and Peter Bartash (drums)\, the band has created a loyal following throughout New England with their “original voice” and “sound anchored in hard rock” (the Boston Globe). \n\n\n\nImproper Magazine had this to say about the band’s live shows—“The Rupert Selection sparked the loudest crowd interaction\, with fans shouting to fill the pauses in the trio’s deft\, dynamic mash of Nirvana-Esque blasts and math-prog rhythm shifts.” Embodying everything you love about 90s grunge but with a modern twist\, the band has released 3 EPs and a full-length album. Each release was built upon the previous album but without leaving the band’s original psychedelic rock roots behind. \n\n\n\nThe Rupert Selection has left its mark on Boston with sold-out venues and heaps of praise from local media—nominated for “Rock Artist of The Year” back to back in 2018 and 2019 by the Boston Music Awards\, being a finalist in the WZLX Rock and Roll Rumble\, being named one of the “10 Acts On The Rise In Boston” by WGBH\, and one of “10 Local Acts Making Waves” by Improper Boston Magazine. \n\n\n\nThe future is bright for The Rupert Selection as a new album is in the works\, with Brian Charles at the helm as producer. \n\n\n\nwww.therupertselection.com \n\n\n\nwww.instagram.com/therupertselection  \n\n\n\nwww.Facebook.com/therupertselection

SUMMARY:Jill McCracken
DESCRIPTION:Most soul artists can caress listeners with a song\, but how many can say their music reaches out and asks for a caress in return? Jill McCracken knows comfort goes both ways\, and she’d like her share of the love\, please and thank you. \n\n\n\nAs one of Boston’s leading singer-songwriters\, McCracken paints with strokes of compassion and warmth\, using her long-standing love of songcraft to grip listeners to the soft spots of her heart. Her ears are trained to translate tenderness into works of art — and so is her eye for sentimental visuals\, thanks in part to a BFA in Fine Art Photography from the Rochester Institute of Technology. \n\n\n\nOriginally from western New York\, McCracken’s obsession with strong songs began at just eight years old\, long before she began tinkering on the guitar and drums as a preteen. It wasn’t until she was 19 that the world got to hear her strongest instrument – her voice – but she’s been using it to embrace crowds ever since. Now rooted at the core of the Boston music community\, McCracken’s passion for writing\, arranging\, and producing music remains front and center in her career\, although her knack for pivoting between sparse solo sets and boisterous big band performances is just as impressive. (Fans who gathered at her headlining Brighton Music Hall performance in May can happily confirm this). \n\n\n\nMcCracken’s May 2022 song “help me\, hold me\, heal me” took a literal approach to her signature call for openness\, rousing a bold sound that asks for gentle patience and understanding. The single’s outreach clearly resonated with the scene; in recent months\, McCracken nabbed a New England Music Award for “Soul/R&B Act of the Year\,” as well as a nod from NEMA in the “Female Performer of the Year” category and a Boston Music Award nomination for “Singer Songwriter of the Year.” \n\n\n\nAfter wrapping up 2022 with a West Coast tour\, McCracken extends a piece of herself again\, unveiling her new single “just right” on February 22. The new song helps her catalog come full circle\, offering the earnest reassurance that “help me\, hold me\, heal me” pleads for. \n\n\n\n“i’ve always been a lot – big ideas\, high standards\, loud voice. we all internalize lessons about how we should be in the world\, and i learned to shrink myself down. the best way to keep the peace was for me to be an ‘easy’ kid; there wasn’t much space for messy and complicated feelings\, so i just denied mine altogether for so much of my life. ‘just right’ is a love song to myself and to anyone else who needs to hear this: you’re not too much\, you’re not too little– you’re just right\, just as you are.” –Jill McCracken \n\n\n\n Latest single “Just Right” now streaming everywhere.
