BulletBoys: The Original Lineup Returns, Ready for a Smooth New Chapter
Formed from the heart of the late ’80s Sunset Strip scene, BulletBoys quickly established themselves as a dynamic force in hard rock, delivering a blues-infused sound that set them apart from the pure glam metal pack. Now, after years of separate paths and various iterations, the gold-selling band is back with the lineup that started it all: Marq Torien, Mick Sweda, Lonnie Vencent, and Jimmy D’Anda. The band’s 1988 self-titled debut, featuring the massive hits “Smooth Up in Ya” and the O’Jays cover “For the Love of Money,” was a critical and commercial success. Albums like 1991’s Freakshow followed, showcasing their sophisticated blend of hard rock grit and undeniable groove. Their videos topped the charts on MTV and still get millions of views on YouTube today.
Meet the Original BulletBoys:
The chemistry of this core four is what defined the band’s signature sound. Here’s a look at the musicians who put the smooth in BulletBoys:
• Marq Torien (Vocals): Iconic vocalist Marq Torien, with infectious hooks and electrifying stage presence, is the charismatic frontman who delivers powerhouse vocals and stage show that never disappoints.
• Mick Sweda (Guitar): Mick Sweda is the architect of the band’s rich, bluesy hard rock sound. His songwriting chops and masterful, guitar work provided the musical foundation that separated BulletBoys from their peers.
• Lonnie Vencent (Bass): Lonnie Vencent delivers the unmistakable low-end pulse that anchors the BulletBoys’ sound, locking the whole machine into the groove only he can create.
• Jimmy D’Anda (Drums): The engine room of the original band, D’Anda’s swagger and bombastic, yet tasteful, drumming provided the necessary
drive and punch. His powerful drumming style is an essential component of the classic BulletBoys groove.
Acknowledging the Past: Why This Time is Different
To the devoted fans who have witnessed previous attempts at a full original lineup reunion that ultimately faltered, the skepticism is understandable. The path of the BulletBoys has been marked by internal conflicts and short-lived collaborations over the past three decades. However, the members insist this return is different. Driven by a mutual desire to close an unfinished chapter and a renewed, mature understanding of their shared history, the reunion is founded on a cleared slate and a collective commitment to the music.
This reunion isn’t about simply revisiting the past; it’s about channeling their classic energy with the wisdom and experience gained from their individual journeys. The reformed BulletBoys are ready to prove that sometimes, the best way forward is to smooth things up for good. Fans can look forward to connecting with the original lineup as the band plans to hit the road in 2026 for a full slate of touring dates.
The ultimate girls’ night at the beach! Glam, glitz, laughs, and high-energy entertainment.

Foster Kids of the Merrimack Valley presents The Heavy Hitters
Foster Kids of the Merrimack Valley presents
The Heavy Hitters Reserved Seating: $47
+ $3 Additional day of show
This show is a fundraiser presented by the non-profit organization, Foster Kids of the Merrimack Valley. They are dedicated to serving the needs of foster children in the Merrimack Valley with a goal to bring a positive influence into their lives and provide programs that support the children as they grow.
The Heavy Hitters are a powerhouse collective of veteran Connecticut musicians whose chemistry was forged onstage long before they ever became a band. What began as an open mic project among some of the region’s most seasoned players quickly evolved into a dynamic, road ready ensemble with more than 150 years of combined experience—and a shared ability to deliver hundreds of songs on the fly with uncanny precision.
Known for their elite musicianship, deep catalog, and electrifying live energy, The Heavy Hitters bring audiences the rare thrill of hearing their favorite songs performed with the authenticity and excitement of the original artists. It’s no wonder they’ve been praised as a “remarkably singular” group rising far above the typical cover band scene.
Whether lighting up festivals, clubs, or private events, The Heavy Hitters deliver a show that feels like a greatest hits concert—every single time.
Experience an unforgettable night of blues-rock, soul and pop with British blues-rock powerhouse Joanne Shaw Taylor. Seamlessly fusing deeply personal narratives with hard-hitting blues-rock anthems, Joanne’s unmatched guitar skills and soulful songwriting have solidified her status as one of the most innovative voices in modern blues. Praised by legends like Stevie Wonder, Joe Bonamassa and Annie Lennox, her upcoming new album Black & Gold, set to release on June 13, promises to be a career-defining release that cements Joanne’s place at the forefront of the genre.
Fans can expect to hear new material from Black & Gold alongside beloved fan favorites, all delivered with Joanne’s signature passion and electrifying stage presence. Check out Joanne’s music video, “Hell of A Good Time” for an exciting preview of her upcoming studio album Black & Gold set to release on June 13.
Not everyone understands what it’s like to lose everything and piece your life back together. It is a universal fight for emotional survival, navigating the wreckage of broken relationships, wrestling with mental health, and finding the resilience to keep going. With their latest album, White Flag Down, Nashville’s A Thousand Horses have paved that exact road with thunderous guitars and cinematic choruses.
Telling the most personal story the band has ever put to tape, the record explores divorce, recovery, and the journey of healing. Instead of pulling back into acoustic melancholy, the band turned the amplifiers up. Fusing their signature rock storytelling with 90s-inspired guitar anthems, tracks like “Dead Man Walking” and the Aaron Gillespie collaboration “Shadows” push the group deeper into modern rock territory while keeping their Southern grit intact.
To capture this sonic shift, frontman Michael Hobby, guitarist Bill Satcher, and bassist Graham DeLoach expanded their lineup to include drummer Nathan Sexton and guitarist Adam Browder. The result is a bold reinvention for the Platinum-certified band behind the global breakout hit “Smoke.” Today, A Thousand Horses make the kind of music that reminds you exactly why rock still matters, loud, honest, and raw.

With multiple appearances on The Tonight Show, two Comedy Central specials, and two Amazon Prime specials, including his latest, Parentally Challenged, it’s no wonder the New York Times called Juston McKinney, “Destined for stardom.”
In the late 1990’s, after a career as a Deputy Sherriff in Maine, he traded in his badge for a microphone and went from York County to New York City to pursue a career in comedy. He quickly became a regular at Comic Strip Live, Stand-Up New York, Dangerfield’s, Gotham Comedy Club, Caroline’s on Broadway and the New York Times called him, “Destined for stardom.” Juston would go on to sign sitcom development deals with Warner Brothers, CBS, IFC and Comedy Central.
He has appeared on numerous Comedy Central shows including his half-hour Comedy Central Presents special and his own one-hour special. He has appeared several times on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Conan O’Brien as well as a Showtime Comedy Special with Rob Gronkowski. He has appeared twice at Denis Leary’s, Comics Come Home at the TD Garden. His TV & movie credits include The King of Queens,100 Centre Street, The Zoo Keeper and Here Comes the Boom.

If you hear someone mention “Tom Petty Tribute Band”, and you think blonde wigs or dyed blonde hair and a mediocre-at-best vocal performance, then you haven’t been to a Breakers show.
The Breakers are a no frills rock band who meticulously encompass the Tom Petty sound and musically establish an emotional connection with the crowd that’s palpable. When asked why they didn’t take the impersonation and prop-driven approach, founder Tom Smith says “we wanted to approach the tribute genre as a true live band, and in (lead vocalist) Chris Chartier we have what no one else has – the most genuine sounding Petty experience in the country.”
The members of the Breakers all come from a background of recording and touring with original bands and perform the music of The Heartbreakers with the same passion and dedication. They have paid tireless attention to detail to each and every song which appeals to both casual and diehard Tom Petty fans alike. Since the fall of 2018 when Tom Smith, Chris Chartier, Evan Smith, Rick Hiller, Tom Booth and Steve George joined forces, they have been practicing and honing their sound. In May 2019, they posted a homemade video compilation to YouTube which in just a few months had over 12k views.
Debuting the band in August of 2019 in Newport RI to an emotional and packed house, the Breakers proved to be the real deal. Their next show would be a sell out at the Narrows center for the arts in Fall River MA.
With only a handful of performances under their collective belt The Breakers were approached and signed exclusively with Blue Raven Entertainment and are currently booking venues through-out the US.
If you want to experience Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers music there’s only one band that can deliver that sound authentically… There’s something happening…something rock n’ roll, something the millions of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers fans around the world need right now more than ever, and its The Breakers.
Mighty Mystic is considered as one of the leaders in the U.S. Reggae scene and labeled by many as one of the more prolific artists to develop outside of Jamaica. He has gripped the scene with ferocious conviction and an uncanny ambition worthy to be mentioned among the greats. He has gone from being a fan of reggae music to being a contributor to the art. Mighty Mystic came on the scene in 2006 after scoring his first international hit with the song “Riding on the Clouds.” However, it wasn’t until the release of his first album “Wake up the World” (2010) that he became a household name. “Wake up the World” boasted several standouts, such as “Revolution,” “Riding on the Clouds,” “Original Love,” and “Slipped Away” with appearances from reggae icon Shaggy and roots rocker Lutan Fyah. Mystic continues to wake up the world with his high energy, message driven brand of reggae music which he emphatically calls “HARD ROOTS.” It is this unique spin on classic reggae blended with Hip Hop & Rock that has catapulted him to the forefront of today’s Reggae Revival. Mighty Mystic is also the younger brother of current Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness. When asked, does being the brother of Prime Minister Holness have any impact on your music? Mystic simply says “Andrew has a job to do and so do I, impact or not we both have our own mission to complete”.
About DJ Maltese When DJ Maltese is behind the booth, expect a high-energy performance fueled by decades of musical obsession and a commitment to keeping the community—and the culture—burning bright.

Robert Jon & The Wreck
Reserved Seating: $35.50 – $49.50 + $3 Additional Day of Show
Reigning from Southern California, Robert Jon & The Wreck take the Southern rock sound from the East Coast and make it their own. Since their inception in 2011, these native Californians—Robert Jon Burrison (lead vocals, guitar), Andrew Espantman (drums, background vocals), Henry James Schneekluth (lead guitar, background vocals), Warren Murrel (bass), and Jake Abernathie (keyboards)—have been electrifying audiences all over the world with their soaring guitar leads, rich vocal harmonies, and unforgettable songs. Simply put, it is impossible to ignore when these talented musicians take the stage.
The band has made an undeniable impact across the globe, playing sold-out shows and sharing the stage with the likes of Joe Bonamassa, Blackberry Smoke, Peter Frampton, The Marshall Tucker Band, The Black Crowes, Little Feat, and Rival Sons. 2020’s Last Light On The Highway earned worldwide acclaim, and 2021’s Shine A Light On Me Brother continued their upward climb, leading to a collaboration with Bonamassa’s Journeyman Records. That partnership paved the way for even more ambitious projects, including 2023’s Ride Into The Light, a dynamic, multi-faceted album that showcased collaborations with GRAMMY-winning producers Don Was, Kevin Shirley, and Dave Cobb, alongside contributions from Bonamassa and Josh Smith.
That same year also saw the release of Live At The Ancienne Belgique, their first official live concert film, praised by Music News as “one of the best live albums I have heard in years.”
In 2024, Robert Jon & The Wreck teamed up once again with Kevin Shirley (Iron Maiden, Aerosmith, The Black Crowes) for the release of Red Moon Rising. The record was hailed as their most fully realized work yet, with critics calling it “a bold step forward” and “a masterclass in modern rock & roll with vintage soul.” The collaboration with Shirley further cemented the band’s reputation as torchbearers of timeless, heartfelt rock music.
Now in 2025, the band continues their momentum with the release of Heartbreaks & Last Goodbyes, produced by GRAMMY-winner Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlile, Rival Sons). The album captures the raw energy and spirit of the band while pushing their songwriting into bold new territory.
With the new album in tow, Robert Jon & The Wreck are set for a massive year of touring, including a major U.S. West Coast run with Samantha Fish this fall and an extensive European and U.K. tour in the spring. Known for their fiery performances, the band’s live show has been described as a life-affirming, communal experience—where blistering guitar solos, soulful harmonies, and unshakable grooves bring audiences to their feet night after night.
AM GOLD is a New York City based tribute band, performing the adult-contemporary hit songs from the late 1970’s through the mid 1980’s. Artists include Hall & Oates, Steely Dan, Huey Lewis, Christopher Cross, Lionel Richie and so many more! Most of this Southern-California based music has recently experienced a revival known to many as Yacht Rock. This smooth style of music has stood the test of time. Baby Come Back!
AM GOLD formed when NYC drummer, Dan Wintersteen threw a Yacht Rock party with musician friends for his 30th birthday. Yacht Rock was something that resonated with him – he grew up sailing with his father in Western New York and spent his high school years working at the local Yacht club:
“One thing I always noticed was that there was always this adult contemporary pop and jazz-rock music playing at the Yacht Club, so when I heard about Yacht Rock, I was immediately amused and inspired to do something fun with this.”
Dan got some of his musician friends together and performed various shows in the Greenwich Village of NYC. The parties were a huge success and it was apparent that there was demand for this kind of music.
Dan joined forces with NYC singer/saxophonist Jonny Hirsch, also raised by a family of sailors, and launched AM GOLD YACHT ROCK PARTY!

Pet Sound Live transports you back in time inside the studio and behind the glass as you experience the creation of someof the greatest and most beloved music in rock & roll history performed right before your eyes and ears.

The band is fronted by 26-year-old piano phenom, Jack Favazza, who brings a youthful exuberance to this classic American songbook.

Playing both well-known hits, alongside of b-side fan favorites, there are surely songs to appease any audience member.
What has grown over more than two decades of relentless grassroots touring has become something far bigger than a typical touring band: a fiercely independent, fan-powered community that continues to expand one show at a time. Rooms across the country are selling out when Adam Ezra Group comes to town, with longtime fans regularly traveling across state lines to catch multiple shows, drawn by the band’s deep sense of community and the promise that no two nights are ever the same.
The band never performs from a fixed setlist, instead shaping each night around the energy in the room. Songs, stories, and moments unfold in real time—part concert, part revival, and part reminder of what live music can still be at its best.
Blending folk/Americana soul, rock ’n’ roll energy, and deeply human songwriting, Adam Ezra Group has built one of the most authentic underground followings in live music today while quickly becoming recognized on a national level. As SPIN recently put it, they are “an independent underground folk band blowing up without selling out,” a rise that has happened entirely outside the traditional industry system, powered by word of mouth, community activism, and a genuine connection between band and audience that often turns first-time listeners into lifelong fans.
Catch them now while they’re still playing the kinds of rooms where you can give Adam a hug on your way out.
For over 24 yrs. Beatlejuice has been faithfully reproducing some of the greatest Beatles songs ever written. Beatlejuice covers every era of the Beatles catalog and onto the solo careers of the boys from Liverpool. Renowned cover band Beatlejuice has been entertaining audiences with spot-on renditions of Beatles classics for more than two decades. Beatlejuice uses a cast of vocalists and arrangements that match the original recordings of the Fab Four note-for-note. Audiences can close their eyes and imagine John, Paul, George and Ringo playing some of the greatest and most influential songs ever written. Beatlejuice performs songs from the full span of the Beatles career, from “Love Me Do” to “Let It Be.” The band was formed in 1994 by the late Brad Delp, renowned vocalist for the band Boston, and drummer John Muzzy from the band Farrenheit. The two friends saw Bob Squires’ Beatles cover band Merseyside play in Newburyport and decided to start their own. Their first official gig was at Bleachers in Salem on a Wednesday night, which Delp and Muzzy advertised with posters that simply said, “ALL BEATLES ALL NIGHT.” The legendary Johnny D’s restaurant and music club in Somerville’s Davis Square served as a home base for the band, which played both nights of every eighth weekend there. Their performances became so popular that the club had to create a special reservation system that would open on Saturday mornings two weeks before the show. After Delp’s passing in 2007, band members Muzzy, Steve Baker, Joe Holaday, Dave Mitchell, Evan Gianoulis and Rich Bartlett continued to perform under the name Beatlejuice and Friends, beginning with memorial concerts for Delp at the Regent Theatre in Arlington. Those friends were a group of vocalists including Mike Girard of The Fools, Jimmy Rogers of Velvet Elvis, Buddy Bernard of Aces & Eights, and Bob Jennings

The Beautiful Losers – A Tribute to Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band
The Beautiful Losers was put together by Last Laugh vocalist, Devin Cordeiro. “I have always wanted to put together the most authentic Seger show but never had the time. Well, I made time for it and as I planned for it all, top on the list was joining together the best musicians that the New England music scene had to offer. I started at the top of the list talent wise and just went for it. The truth is I couldn’t have assembled a more talented, dedicated, and professional group for this project and as a result, it has exceeded all expectations. The All-Star lineup are Carl Ayotte, David Ayotte, Stephen Baker, Nate Comp, Kevin Elder, Bill Plourde, and David Stefanelli. Vocally, musically, sonically, and dynamically this band is as good as it gets. With an endless crop of hits to pick from we will no doubt be the BEST Bob Seger tribute band in the land!”
