Warmly welcome to 63 College avenue at 1pm.

Genre-crossing, oppression-smashing, face-melting postcolonial rock and roll! Expect everything from surf rock to two-step to doom metal to qawwali...in one set.

His record of original instrumental solo guitar music, "Quadrille & Collapse", was released in April of 2017 by Invertebrata Records. In 2016 he relocated from Sydney, Australia to Cambridge, Massachusetts.

WE ARE PLAYING UNTIL 1, NOT 2!

The Snacktones play originals and select covers across a variety of genres with influences in rock, reggae, blues, american folk, and beyond. We enjoy ourselves most when joined by friends and will feature a number of great Somerville artists sitting in on a fun and playful Porchfest jam. Come on by!

Bealtaine is a group of friends who play Irish (and a bit of Scottish) traditional music. Some of us play professionally, others just for fun. We frequently get together for house parties and enjoy sharing our tunes and love of the music with others. Come join us for some tunes and a few songs—"craic agus ceol" (good times/fun and music).

The Space Plantains is a group hailing from a distant galaxy of tropical nature, here to bring some Latin mixed with quirky psychedelia with the sole purpose to make earthlings shake, dance and lose themselves. Congas, Guiros, electric guitars, funky organs and a lot of flavor is the name of the game. Join us!
