About the Soggy Po Boys:

The Soggy Po Boys, native to New England, have quickly become an institution. They are spreading the good news of New Orleans music across the northeast and beyond, playing at concert halls and street corners; music festivals and burlesque festivals; bars and libraries; wherever the party requires. Part of the beauty of New Orleans music is that it's celebrated and appreciated wherever it goes, from the street to the theater.

The Po Boys formed in 2012 to shake the walls of a local club on a Fat Tuesday but have honed their sound and become more than a Mardi Gras centerpiece. Exploring the vast musical traditions of New Orleans and expanding their repertoire to look beyond NOLA jazz, the band includes traditional Caribbean tunes (it’s been said that New Orleans is the northernmost city in the Caribbean), as well as Meters funk, soul, and brass band / street beat music.

There are a myriad of traditions that flow into New Orleans culture just as there are tributaries that feed the Mississippi, and the Po Boys are eager to explore what makes the music of New Orleans so damn special. You’ll hear the heavy influence of the New Orleans sound across the band and in the stories told by their original tunes. Despite the scope of its sound, the outfit is only seven people, and thrives on the interplay and group dynamics that bring this music to life.

JIMKATA RUNNING IN PLACE TOUR 2025. SHAKEDOWN LOUNGE AT STOWE CIDER. 

Tickets: https://www.seetickets.us/event/Jimkata/628088

About Jimkata:
Blurring the line between rock band and electronic act, Jimkata is onto an entirely new era on stage.  Once again a quartet, the band has been proving that no songs from their extensive catalog is off limits. Described as “A hard hitting dance party with soaring guitar riffs and soul tickling lyrics,” Jimkata takes you on an emotional joyride before tucking you gently in to bed, still humming the words.

With a life long friendship at it’s core friends since middle school, Evan Friedell, Aaron Gorsch and Packy Lunn infuse Jimkata, with an adventurous musical streak & relatable lyrical themes. Adding Cooper Casterline into the mix holding down the low end has allowed the band to stretch the music out in a live setting. Mixed in with the modern sensibilities & hard driven indie rock are influences drawn from the likes of Motown, singer-songwriters & even old country songs, where storytelling & a quick turn of phrase share priorities with melody & the beat.

On the heals of their newest studio album effort “Running In Place” which releases in Sept 2024 the band has once again exemplified why they’re the best at what they do. With the most recent release they continue the successful building of a vibrant, grassroots fanbase and finds themselves all over the US supporting their most recent release.

SOULE MONDE. FEBRUARY 14TH 8PM. SHAKEDOWN LOUNGE AT STOWE CIDER. 

TICKETS: https://www.seetickets.us/event/Soule-Monde/630133

About Soule Monde:

Soule Monde is avant funk, born of the syncopated minds of power drummer Russ Lawton and organ wizard Ray Paczkowski. The “duo” is cemented into an indestructible unit, where bold improvisational leaps are interpreted telepathically and reciprocated effortlessly. Paczkowski has an intrepid ability to simultaneously tame the Hammond B3 and clavinet, filling Soule Monde's sound with beautiful and dynamic melodies. Lawton is the consummate ‘pocket’ drummer, driving the groove further without ever losing a step, or Ray. This is the jazz-duo your parents warned you about.

Their pedigree speaks for itself, much like Russ and Ray’s music. While Lawton has played alongside Vermont staples like Mike Gordon, Strangefolk, and The Grippo Funk Band, Paczkowski’s early acts Viperhouse and Vorcza gained notoriety in the 1990s, and he (Ray) toured with Dave Matthews and Friends for 3 years in the early 2000s. Notably, both members of Soule Monde have been in the Trey Anastasio Band (TAB) for more than 20 years. Additionally, Russ and Ray have made appearances at Bonnaroo, Austin City Limits, Saturday Night Live, David Letterman, Jay Leno, Conan O'Brien and Jimmy Fallon.

In early 2018 Ray Paczkowski underwent brain surgery to remove a golf ball sized tumor that threatened his gross motor function. After a difficult year of rehabilitation filled with ups and downs, the “Milkman” as he is affectionately known, made a full recovery. With a freshly shaped lens on life the duo did not waste any time. In the Spring of 2020 Russ and Ray added a third and started LaMP, a supergroup side project with Scott Metzger of Joe Russo’s Almost Dead. That Fall found them in their familiar roles alongside Phish’s Trey Anastasio at New York City’s legendary Beacon Theatre. The Beacon Jams 8-week live stream residency tested the duo’s versatility, rehearsing and performing over 100 songs on the run.

Fast forward to early 2021, and Soule Monde proper returned to Sugarhouse Studios in Waitsfield, VT, surrounded by snow covered Pines, to record “Mimi Digs It”. The decades of synergy show, and eight brand new tracks highlight a musical partnership at the pinnacle of its craft. Much like the sugar yielding Maples on Ray’s Farm, this latest album is the gift that keeps on giving.

WEIRD PHISHES. WITH OPENER JONNY G FROM LESPECIAL. SHAKEDOWN LOUNGE AT STOWE CIDER. MARCH 1ST 2025. 8PM.

Tickets: https://www.seetickets.us/event/Weird-Phishes-w-Jonny-G-of-lespecial/634030

About Weird Phishes:

Weird Phishes is exactly what it sounds like - the iconic melancholy rock songs of Radiohead completely reborn as danceable, crunchy jams. With full-album performances, unexpected mashups, and gluey funk-driven improvisation, their jam-heavy take on alt-rock classics has sparked an unexpected energy in audiences across the northeast. Cleverly avoiding the "tribute" trope, Weird Phishes continues to push the envelope of what a mashup band can be, delivering performances that need to be experienced in order to believe.

A quick glance at the band’s social media gives a glimpse into why this unlikely mashup proves worthwhile. “Bought tickets on a whim because I love both bands, had wanted to check out the club, and thought it would be amusing. I was not expecting such incredible musicianship and thought that had gone into their set...it was one of the best shows I’ve seen in years.” Said one user. “Clean, creative mashups of a favorite album and great Phish selections. Great energy.” says another. “Impossibly excellent show.”

In July 2019, Weird Phishes solidified their place in the New England jam community, playing back-to-back afterparties for Phish’s performances at Fenway Park. With a growing fanbase and an ever-changing setlist, the band continued their inaugural year with several headlining performances in Boston and a fall tour to the midwest, topped off with Phish afterparties in Providence and New York, and the very last performance at Phish-mecca Nectar’s before the pandemic hit. The band made its post-covid return with a headlining slot at the inaugural Safe and Soundz festival and a performance at the legendary Paradise Rock Club.

In 2023, the band trod new ground with full album performances spanning multiple cities, debuting their fully reimagined rendition of "Kid A" at Boston's Crystal Ballroom, a performance of "Ok Computer'' at Albany's Lark Hall, and a 2 hour long performance of “In Rainbows” in Cambridge, MA at The Middle East Downstairs.

MIDNIGHT NORTH. SHAKEDOWN LOUNGE AT STOWE CIDER. MARCH 30TH 2025 @ 8PM.

Tickets: https://www.seetickets.us/event/Midnight-North/631441

About Midnight North:

Midnight North takes its cue from the fertile Bay Area music scene. Formed in early 2012 bysinger/songwriters Grahame Lesh and Elliott Peck, whose harmonies came as naturally as theinitial songs, along with bassist Connor O’Sullivan. The band’s current-day lineup wascompleted when drummer/banjo player Nathan Graham came aboard after a chance meeting at abenefit concert in Philadelphia in 2016 following the release of its third, and breakthrough,album, Under the Lights, in 2017.

In the early days, the group was able to grow as a unit thanksto an association with Lesh’s family venue, Terrapin Crossroads in San Rafael, California.Diamonds in the Zodiac - on the Americana Vibes label - is Midnight North’s fifth studio album(along with three live discs), representing a continuation of the musical direction on 2021’sThere’s Always a Story. The title comes from the unearthed Robert Hunter lyrics for “Jupiter,”one of two extended tracks on an album -- the other, Grahame’s opening “Questions.” Other thanthose two, Diamonds is increasingly song-oriented and steeped in bluegrass, country, soul, blues,funk, jazz and gospel – a true Americana melting pot.

It also turned into a real, second-generation family affair, as it was produced by the band’s dearfriend Amy Helm, daughter of The Band’s Levon Helm and singer/songwriter Libby Titus, andfeatures Grahame’s dad Phil and brother Brian. “Things have come full circle in that it wasmeeting Amy and Levon Helm at a Ramble in the Barn that gave my parents the inspiration toopen Terrapin Crossroads, and having Terrapin was so instrumental in the band’s development.And now Amy produced this album and shepherded these songs to their ultimate form,” saidGrahame. Diamonds was mixed by D. James Goodwin, who has worked with such luminaries as Bob Weir,the Hold Steady, The National, Goose, and Bonny Light Horseman among many others. MicahNelson, aka Particle Kid, and Willie’s son, did the honors on the album cover artwork, usingacrylic paint mixed with floral poured on wood.
Recorded at Dave Schools’ (Widespread Panic) Spacecamp in Occidental, California, Diamond in the Zodiac’s 10 tracks represent a truly collaborative effort, featuring band members playing different instruments and many friends & collaborators stopping by the studio to contribute to the music and the vibe. Phil & Brian Lesh, Jason Crosby, and TJ Kanczuzewski all contributed significant moments, and all of the focus was on pulling the best version of the song out of the ensemble.
