Folk

Jeremiah Birnbaum is a "rootsy, soulful troubadour" (Time Out, London) with his own brand of "raucous alt-country...a rabbi's son with a touch of whiskey burning his soul" (New York Magazine, Critic's Pick). His most recent release is "Lucky," recorded stripped-down and mostly live in the studio. By January 2013, the record reached #31 on the Roots Music Report charts for New York artists, receiving spins coast-to-coast on many independent folk radio stations, including WFUV in New York.

Amy and Steve Pardo play a variety of children's songs, from the ABC's to songs performed by Woody Guthrie and Elizabeth Mitchell. Amy is a preschool music teacher and plays both the guitar and ukulele with the children. On special days her husband Steve visits the music class and brings his electric guitar, his clarinet and his saxophone. Visit their porch and the kids will have a band of their own to rock out to :)

With enthusiasm equaled only by our amateurishness, we're going to sit outside with our fiddle and guitar, and play through traditional and modern waltzes from the American, Irish, old-time, Scottish and other repertoires. Come join in or listen!

McJoy and the Saxy Buke Sunshine brings happiness and rainbows to all of its listeners. The combination of two baritone instruments, Baritone Ukelele and Baritone Saxophone, is simply irresistable. We like David Bowie... and folk songs.

Acoustic music- guitar, mandolin, banjo, perhaps quiet wooden drums and percussion. There are 3 people in the group and we have invited about 2 friends to guest. I do not anticipate any electric instruments, but if any do materialize via guests they will be kept to a low volume as we are an acoustic group.

Playing original folk music, Hello Ghost focuses on lush harmonies and unique arrangements. Influences include Fleetwood Mac, Bon Iver, Bowerbirds. Jonathan: vocals, acoustic guitar Cara: vocals, melodica Steve: electric guitar, clarinet, vocals Amy: flute, vocals. https://soundcloud.com/helloghost -|-|-|-
Opal Puckett is made up of Jonathan and Cara of Hello Ghost. You can usually find them busking outside of Harvard Square playing an eclectic/all natural/totally organic/gluten free mix of indie folk and doo-woppy oldies. Setlist will include songs of old: Everly Brothers, Bob Dylan, Beatles, etc. AND songs of recent memory: Beach House, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, Low Anthem, etc.

sorry, we had to cancel :(

Friends who love to pick and have a hot time!

2 Bands, 1 porch!
BAKER THOMAS BAND - The clever and catchy hit songs cover the spectrum of classic rock, funk and groove, with hints of bluegrass and jam band.... so many influences... one big sound. RYAN TAYLOR BAND - Steeped in various forms of traditional music, Ryan Taylor Band focuses on strong songwriting and 4-part vocal harmonies to create a dynamic and layered sonic blanket that is the bedrock of American folk music.

FYI -Music on the back porch - Public hangout space in the driveway.
Back yard will be for family & close friends only - NO SMOKING & NO DOGS on the Premises.
