Ryan Fitzsimmons

Music Genre: 
Band Description: 

Ryan Fitzsimmons has steadily built a reputation as one of the Northeast's most compelling songwriters. Over the past 10 years Ryan has woven his way throughout New England, creating a strong presence in a number of the local music scenes. While living in Providence RI, the Providence Phoenix awarded him the title of Best Male Vocalist. Upon relocating to the Boston area Ryan has become a fixture in the Americana scene with regular appearances at venerable Cambridge venues such as Club Passim, the Lizard Lounge and Toad.

Will Lenk

Music Genre: 
Porchfest Sub Genre: 
Band Description: 

Will Lenk brings a dazzling sophistication to his fingerstyle guitar playing that serves as the canvas for his powerful songwriting. As a solo performer, Lenk equally evokes the hushed meditations of Iron & Wine and the edgier dynamics of artists like the Tallest Man on Earth. At a time where maximalism saturates pop music, he wields nothing more than a guitar and his voice to stand out as an immediate and vital presence when performing. Having just emerged on the Boston music scene in 2019, Lenk has already impressed at local venues with his singular songwriting style and has a slew of upcoming performances slated for 2019. His debut EP arrives in Spring of 2019.

Strangers by Accident + Catch a Dinosaur

Music Genre: 
Porchfest Sub Genre: 
Band Description: 

Strangers by Accident are an authentic, energetic indie-folk-rock act with an old-school respect for songwriting. The band’s lyrically driven songs feature three-part harmonies and veer from suitcase-stomping acoustic, to snare-pounding electric, to minimalist folk. Catch a Dinosaur is a psychedelic rock party that will get you dancing. Come for the music, stay for the hot dogs and painting!
