Sunday July 8th Matt York
The Boston Herald says of Matt York’s new album Boston, Texas that ”the singer-songwriter uses basic building blocks — Holly’s chords, Hank Williams’ swagger, Steve Earle’s boozy wisdom, Paul Westerberg’s straight-up-drunk wisdom — to construct an album of beauty, optimism and heartbreak”. Matt’s new album explores a cross-section of everything from straight-up rock n roll to hints of outlaw country. His album has received radio airplay throughout the world. His album “Boston, Texas” was named Limelight Magazine’s Debut Album of the Year”. His most recent release, Between the Bars was listed as one of the top albums of 2017 by the Patriot Ledger, Gatehouse Media, Ryan’s Smashing Life and radio stations WATD 95.9 FM’s Almost Famous Radio and PIXY-103FM.

the best musicians he can find. The mission of this band is simple. Put the music first. That means offering a great sounding live show that’s exciting to watch and listen to. The resumes and accomplishments of the individual musicians are far too numerous to list. In short, the list includes worldwide concert tours, Grammy, Emmy and Academy award nominations, critical and popular acclaim. Stylistically, the band draws most of its cover repertoire from popular songs from the late 1960’s through 1970’s. This was an era that featured layered musical textures involving multiple vocal harmonies and guitar parts. With 5 singers and 4 guitarists,
the band can cover a lot of ground most bands can’
