barnRocketAnyone unfamiliar with barnRocket upon first listen might call them Bluegrass and more. Bluegrass purists would say great singer songwriter stuff with some Bluegrass influence. Peter Nabut, songwriter for the band likes to call it funk grass but that doesn’t really cover it either. Strong song writing, is where the emphasis lies here. With instrumental prowess and a melting pot of American roots influences, a barnRocket show is bound to bring you original tastes of Cajun, Rock, Folk, Country, Funk, Bluegrass, World Beat and who knows what else. Always seeking to expand their sound this is a band in motion. With John Monthei on Banjo and Pedal Steel, Sean Kimball on Bass and vocals, Leslie King on Mandolin, Guitar and vocals and Peter Nabut on Guitar, Accordian and vocals, a night in the barn could be what you’ve been waiting for.

Primate FiascoThe Primate Fiasco spawns from the streets of Northampton MA. With tuba, banjo, clarinet, trumpet, drums, and vocal harmony, it’s the instrumentation of a New Orleans sidewalk band but with modern influences. While the band can play authentic "Traditional Jazz", the music that’s more likely to come out of their ancient instruments is often recognized as funk, reggae, bluegrass, hip hop, rock, latin, trance, the occasion Serbian gypsy jam, etc. But the world has enough labels already. Most would agree on the category of "fun". If you want to invent a genre, "psychedelic dixieland" seems to get the point across.

The Wendell Full Moon Coffeehouse, located in Old Town Hall in the center of Wendell, MA., offers a unique opportunity for fun in a family friendly venue, all in support of a good cause. Featuring the Valley’s only Dessert-O-Rama.
