The People's Party

Music Genre: 
Porchfest Sub Genre: 
Band Description: 

The People’s Party, a band hailing from Boston, MA, is an eclectic mix of rock, funk, hip hop, jazz, and everything in between, dedicated to spreading love and unity in the celebration of life. The original sound borrows from a wide variety of genres. With rich vocal harmonies reminiscent of Motown and The Beatles, a thick, groove-filled rhythm section that can move from hip hop to acid jazz to rock with ease, infectious songwriting and lyricism, which varies from Paul Simon-esque to a Tribe Called Quest and beyond, a horn section along the order of Tower of Power and The Meters, and jams similar to Phish and The Grateful Dead, the music takes the audience on a wild musical ride.

The Oysters Rockabilly Band

Music Genre: 
Band Description: 

Elvis's attitude, the Everly's harmonies, Carl Perkins's hooks, Bo Diddley's humor, Link Wray's waling solos, LIttle Richard's boundless energy, Sam Cooke's smoothness and behind everything that driving rhythm that makes you get out of your chair to swing and stomp. We like to say we combine all these elements! Four musicians who came together through a common love of early rock and roll, we are inspired by the music of the time of Sun and Chess.

George O'Neill - Lead Guitar and Vocal
Liam - Rhythm Guitar and Vocal
Brick - Drums and Vocal
Brian - Bass and Vocal
