In January of 2010 singer Rose Giovanetti assembled the band, “Little Rose and the Boston Allstars”.  With accordion, stand up bass, rhythm guitar, and drums alongside Rose’s powerful pipes.  Their interpretations of blues, jazz, and every genre inbetween are refreshing, and their repertoire consists of many lesser-known gems that are familiar but forgotten, and will always get an audience out on the dance floor. Always a couple of Tap dancers on board to keep you entertained!

Sweet songs and great grooves.  Check it out.

Hevy Sol

48 Hudson St., Somerville (see map on right)
Band Contact: Ashley Rhodes
Saturday, May 19 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Hevy Sol is a blast from the past as heard through a distorted silver-face amp. This band is what rock and roll should be: raw, unapologetic, and authentic. Fronted by the powerful pipes and bluesy guitar stylings of Ashley Rhodes, complimented by Daniel Johnson's ball-busting bass lines, and backed by Stephen Cramer's groovin' beats, Hevy Sol is genuine rock in a world of programmed beats and auto-tuned vocals. With a strong female front, this band is anything but "girl rock". Our stripped down sound utilizes acoustic guitar and bass with cajon.
