Folk

CAUTION DOG is a mix of worldly funk, folky jams, and soulful tunes. A mix of musicians from around the Boston area, this performance will have solo and group acts, as well as a jam portion at the end. Come by for good times and chill vibes!

Kids Luv Cops - Emotionally charged folk-punk about the road to self improvement. We bring the kazoos and maracas, you bring the flair.

Lonesome Joan - Open-tuned post-folk sadcore. Come for delicate songs about triumphant isolation, stay for personal mythologies of springtime crush hell and trivia about trees.

Pizzafish - A spin-off of I'm Doing Okay. How Are You? where the songs are supposed to be about joy but end up actually being about resilience. Now with 100% more whammy bar.

Suburban Adventure - Fenn from The Baja Blasters playing sad songs for burrito lovers. Music for huge fans of both the mall and 2004. 

Members of Philabuster and their local friends will play an acoustic set comprised of your favorite covers and a few special extras.

Come on out and sing along to your favorite hits by The Beatles, Foo Fighters, Led Zepellin, Billy Joel, The Killers, DMB, Toto, Mumford & Sons, Peter Gabriel, Dion and the Belmonts, Kings of Leon, Michael Jackson, and more!

Fish House is a cruise ship jam band.

The Novel Ideas are a country folk quintet from the great state of Massachusetts. This performance will feature Danny from The Novel Ideas in a solo act that blends pastoral, harmony driven, and plaintive Americana.

Since releasing their self-titled debut in 2007, Boston's The Grownup Noise have evolved into a rousing and innovative pop-music outfit, bridging the gap between Americana music and Indie Rock. With a genuine respect for every style of music, this band and its songwriter, Paul Hansen, are song obsessed. 

An offshoot of the contra-dance band, Roaring Jelly, the Jelly Beans play American, English, Irish, Scottish, and French Canadian dance tunes.

Trio of Tangents (est. March 2019) is a local jazzy, bluesy, folky cover band. Members Alexis Goodfellow, Clara Lauterwasser, and Chris Snyder perform covers of classic jazz standards, bluesy ballads, and folky waltzes in addition to fun takes on some of their personal favorite tunes. They're looking forward to bringing vocals, guitar, keyboard, and fiddle fun to Somervillians for PorchFest!

We are a bunch of friends who love Somerville and love to pick some tunes! Come on by!

Purveyors of doom coping with existential dread through song and dance.
