Eight Foot Manchild grew out of friendships formed in the HONK Festival community. After playing in various bands in this network for a number of years, bandleader Dylan Foley formed EFM out of a desire to synthesize elements of stoner rock, doom metal, and street brass funk, and throw in a bit of hip hop sampling aesthetic for good measure. The aim was to find a sonic crossroads somewhere between Electric Wizard, Budos Band, King Crimson, and Wu-Tang Clan. The lyrical content, inspired mainly by the irreverent humor of Frank Zappa, draws on everything from religion and philosophy to kung fu and Godzilla movies.

My music is influenced by R&B, Hip Hop, and Pop. I'm going for a full studio sound...but solo and without a computer. Expect:
It's a show that's sure to leave you saying "Dan, you joked about this but that's actually too much gear."

Jackslaw is a four-piece rock/blues/funk outfit: 2 guitars, 1 bass, and drums. But when one guitarist and our only bassist can't make the new Porchfest date, exit Jackslaw... enter: HALF-SLAW. Electric cables and the number 4 be damned! We are now a duo, featuring Dan DiBacco on acoustic guitar/vox, and Mike Staxfeld on his brand new, never-been-played, Guitar Center-fresh-smelling cajon. The two of us are pumped to play some eclectic covers and a few originals for you beautiful Somervillians in this limited format, so please swing by to enjoy some good tunes/vibes!
