John Jerome:
Gloucester's own John Jerome has been one of the best acts across Gloucester hands down! He is well known for his talents playing along with his brother and has many reasons to be so well thought of. He has played at pretty much every local spot that plays music in town and many more. He plays a nice mix of cover songs and some of his own original music and can wow you with either.
Friday September 3
Ryan Faraday:
At 24 years old, Ryan Fardy has had a fantastic start to his 9-year career. He has played to crowds all over New England and the United States (Las Vegas, California, Florida...etc), and even Canada. He has opened for the legendary Chaka Khan, Leon Russell, Edgar Winter, Mountain, Snoop Dogg, Rick Derringer, Hoobastank, and more. He was also the featured cover story for Boston Blues Magazine at the age of 18. With an upbringing on the Boston Area blues scene, Ryan has created his own genre, mixing Blues, Rock, Funk, R&B, Soul, and Pop. He is striving to make his songwriting ability known even though he still holds the "guitarslinger" tag throughout the Boston area. His shows combine the inventiveness of Jimi Hendrix and Jeff Beck, the passion of Eric Clapton, and the on stage intensity of Stevie Ray Vaughan. Audiences typically find themselves in awe of his command of the guitar and of the stage, and have trouble believing that they are witnessing the talents of someone so young. However, they don't have any trouble believing that they are seeing a performer who has a very bright future. Check out more at www.ryanfardymusic.com

Greg Luttrell
Greg Luttrell is a singer & guitarist from Detroit, MI who relocated to Boston and gets around doing performances of all kinds of feel good music. Whether performing with one of many bands or as a solo act, Greg's energy and delivery are a unique experience. Luttrell is an outstanding guitar player and his voice has been likened to Marvin Gaye, Lenny Kravitz, Stevie Wonder and Brad Nowell. He honed his skills playing in blues and cover bands in the 90s and formed his own funk and soul band, Michigan Blacksnake who released Michigan Blacksnake(1997) and the road at a breakneck pace. They were nominated for a Boston Music Award as Best Funk Band in 2000 and continued playing concerts and festivals for the next three years. They shortened the name to Blacksnake and released Mind Over Matter(2004) and played 200+ shows that year and for years after all over the US and in the Caribbean. In between runs with his bands, Greg has thrilled crowds from NY to LA with his solo acoustic performances.

Friday September 10
Cool Change:
Cool Change is a music project that consists of a number of great musicians from the North Shore area. The nice thing about it is, it can change from an acoustic duo, to a two guitar trio, to a one guitar/percussion trio to a full band and fits into whatever venue. The kind of music, being blues, classic rock, R&B, and a small dose of pop stays the same but the library of songs just keeps growing. One of our goals is to have people listening to songs and thinking "I love this song, no one ever plays this!! " and it's working. More often than not, people will come up after the gig and say just that, that our song selections are like old friends they haven't heard from in a while. Check out more at www.coolchangemusic.com
Thursday September 16
Toni Ann Enes:
Toni Ann is a local musician who has played the North Shore for 30 years. In 2002 she released a debut CD colaborateing together with her life long friend David Brown. Her favorite format is a combination of acoustic covers and original music accompanied by her guitar partiner Dave Keon who performs with numerous local bands adding his unmistakable guitar signature. To categorize the duo's sound would be a groove similar to Sade and finger picking style of Lindsey Buckingham lending itself to Fleetwood Mac selections, 80's Classics and current releases such as John Meyer. The duo offers a little bit for everyone
Friday September 17

Thursday September 30
Samantha Farrell:
If I had to describe her, I'd say she was a mix between Norah Jones and Corrine Bailey Rae. Samantha Farrell is a sparkling young singer-songwriter based out of Boston, who has been wowing critics and audiences alike, across the country with her unique mixture of jazz and folk-rock influenced pop. Described by national music magazine Relix as possessing "prodigious and undulating vocals that are delivered with rare, swinging passion," and as a "soulful mix of Van Morrison's country hospitality, Ella Fitzgerald's jazzy range and Fiona Apple's modern honesty," Farrell has been touring the North east in support of her latest two efforts; Her full length album "Luminous" was produced by the late LeRoi Moore, a founding member and saxophone player for the Dave Matthews Band. "Luminous," a completely independent release, sky rocketed to #7 on the national pop iTunes charts from it's formidable grass roots support. Her music has been heard on major network television shows such as "Shark" (NBC), Privileged and One Tree Hill (CW). For more information, find her on the web at www.samanthafarrell.com
