SUMMARY:Caiola with special guest Steve Rondo
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: Total ticket price at checkout is $36.00 (inclusive of $6.00 service fee)\n\n\n\nAT THE DOOR: $40\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan Caiola (CAI•OLA) is a songwriter/musician/producer based out of Philadelphia. He founded the indie rock band Mo Lowda & The Humble in 2010 and\, due to its intense touring schedule\, the band became his main priority along with his side project NightSeason (founded in 2016) – an indie/electro-pop producer duo. Though he always felt writing folk songs was his true “wheelhouse”\, it wasn’t until the nationwide lockdown in early 2020 that he finally put aside the time to record a collection of those songs for his first solo album ‘Only Real When Shared’. His second record\, a more mature and textural follow up entitled\, ‘This Could Be Everything’\, was released August 2nd\, 2024 and is streaming everywhere. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSteve Rondo:\n\n\n\nRondo has built a following across the Northeast\, touring beach towns\, dive bars\, and regional festivals. Songs like Flowers of La Jolla and Afternoon Rebellion showcase his blend of heartfelt storytelling and guitar-driven arrangements — music made for long drives and reflection.  \n\n\n\nA surfer at heart\, Rondo brings coastal atmosphere into his songwriting. His songs mirror the ocean’s push and pull — building into anthemic choruses before settling into calm. Themes of freedom\, uncertainty\, and searching for direction run throughout his work\, capturing the feeling of chasing waves and dreams.  \n\n\n\nLive\, Rondo and his band balance raw emotion with communal energy. Highlights include opening for Dermot Kennedy in Portland\, Maine in 2022\, plus performances at Levitate Music Festival and 92.5 The River’s Riverfest\, cementing their reputation as a rising live act in the region. His latest releases expand his sound while staying true to what defines it: honest lyrics\, dynamic rock arrangements\, and the wide-open feeling of life close to the water.  \n\n\n\nSteve Rondo’s music is for anyone navigating the space between where they are and where they’re headed — best played loud\, windows down\, somewhere near the coast.  \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

SUMMARY:The Last Revel with special guest 40 Thieves
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: Total ticket price at checkout is $24.50 (inclusive of $4.50 service fee)\n\n\n\nAT THE DOOR: $25\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMuch like their sorrowful\, purposeful melodies\, the members of The Last Revel contain this thick thread of self\, and of place\, when it comes to the underlying trait in the sounds and scope of their intent\, onstage and in the studio — survival mode.“Honestly\, I don’t know if we would’ve been able to do this career for as long as we have without persistence\,” says guitarist Lee Henke. “By living in a challenging place\, it’s definitely conditioned us to have a high tolerance for discomfort\, a certain toughness to push ahead.”That sentiment of tenacity and passion lies at the heart of The Last Revel’s latest album\, Gone for Good. Produced by Trampled by Turtles lead singer Dave Simonett\, the record is a multilayered ode to the life of an artist\, life on the road\, and what it means to be a human being in uncertain times.“This is a step in our careers that feels like there’s no going back\,” says banjoist Ryan Acker. “There’s a level of commitment now that\, just a couple of years ago\, we didn’t fathom we could take on. The boat is off the shore and you can’t see land anymore — we’re in it now.”Based in Minneapolis\, Minnesota\, the Americana/indie-folk outfit harkens to the trials\, tribulations\, and triumphs of what it means to pursue your dreams in real time. The foundation of which is conjured by a deep appreciation and genuine respect for the vast landscape and sometimes-harsh realities of what it means to emerge from the Midwest. \n\n\n\n“We grew up in the Midwest and we’ve all kind of stayed in this region of the country\,” Henke notes. “This place has imprinted itself on who we are\, and that challenge of life here is part of who we are now.” \n\n\n\nAlongside Henke and Acker is fiddler Vinnie Donatelle. When the ensemble finds themselves behind the microphone\, it’s the culmination of their vocal talents that truly showcases the mission of The Last Revel — harmony. \n\n\n\n“There’s no better feeling [when we’re singing together]\,” Acker says. “And it makes you understand something primal\, these melodies and these harmonies. It’s internal and it’s really powerful to sing your heart out with the people you love and your best friends.” \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n40 Thieves (feat. Travis Cyr & Laura Bagley):\n\n\n\nSalt of the Earth Songs. \n\n\n\n40 Thieves are a dedicated and professional Duo. Authentic\, exciting and full of gentle harmonies\, vivid\, poetic lyrics and intricate\, percussive guitar playing. Their shows are an enjoyable mix of their best original songs along with select works from classic songwriters and traditional numbers which continue to stand the test of time and relevance. “Hypnotizing psych-folk\, Kinda like John Prine from outer space.”  \n\n\n\n40 Thieves features are Travis Cyr accompanied by the angelic voice of Laura Bagley\, together they create a chill and unique vibe all their own. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

SUMMARY:House of Hamill
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: $25 (+ $5.50 service fee)\n\n\n\nAT THE DOOR: $35\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHouse of Hamill owes its existence – almost entirely – to a series of cancelled flights. \n\n\n\nRose Baldino and Brian Buchanan first found themselves onstage together at the 2014 Folk Alliance International conference in Kansas City. \n\n\n\nRose’s band Burning Bridget Cleary was scheduled to perform\, but inclement weather prevented two of her bandmates from flying. Desperate to salvage the showcase\, Rose approached Brian\, who she knew fronted Canadian celtic rock band Enter the Haggis. She thrust a guitar into Brian’s hands\, pulled him onstage\, and the two just clicked. \n\n\n\nFour years and hundreds of shows later\, the duo was booked to play a closing slot at a Colorado festival\, so they hired a bass player and drummer to fill out their sound. By the oddest of coincidences\, their hired bandmates’ flights were canceled the day of the show. A frantic Facebook post introduced Brian and Rose to local musician Caroline Browning\, who joined them on bass for the weekend. Once again\, the chemistry was undeniable\, and House of Hamill became a trio. \n\n\n\nToday\, Pennsylvania-based House of Hamill is a fixture on festival stages across the US\, and have shared their music and stories on the country’s premier folk stages. Their original song “Banks of the Brandywine” was a Grand Prize winner in the 2024 John Lennon Songwriting Contest\, and the video for their all-violin cover of “Sweet Child O’ Mine” amassed over 16 million views on Facebook\, where it was shared over 400\,000 times.  \n\n\n\nThe band’s newest release\, “Wildfire\,”  marks House of Hamill‘s most compelling work to date. Featuring their strongest and most exciting songwriting\, “Wildfire” is filled with lyrical depth\, sophisticated vocal and instrumental arrangements\, and hooks that are simply irresistible. This album captures the vibrant energy and creativity that have become the hallmarks of a House of Hamill live show. \n\n\n\nWhether they’re ripping through a set of original jigs and reels\, adding lush three-part harmonies into traditional folk ballads\, or cracking up an audience with stories from the road\, House of Hamill puts on a show that captivates audiences from the very first note. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

SUMMARY:Liz Longley with special guest Eleanor Buckland
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: Total ticket price at checkout is $24.50 (inclusive of $4.50 service fee)\n\n\n\nAT THE DOOR: $30\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLiz Longley is a Nashville-based singer-songwriter celebrated for her stop-you-in-your-tracks voice and deeply emotional music. Known for her distinctive blend of folk\, pop\, and Americana\, Liz has earned accolades from prestigious songwriting competitions\, including the BMI John Lennon Songwriting Scholarship Competition. \n\n\n\nHer self-titled debut album was praised as “stunning” (HuffPost) and marked by “cleverness and wit” (Dallas Morning News). The follow-up\, Weightless (2016)\, was lauded as “a thing of beauty” by Pop Dose. Liz’s sixth album\, Funeral For My Past\, became a notable success after her fans raised over $150\,000 on Kickstarter to fund its independent release\, making her the #4 most funded solo female musician in Kickstarter history. The album received widespread acclaim\, with Forbes calling it “stunning” and Billboard highlighting its diverse range from Americana to shimmering pop anthems. \n\n\n\nBecoming a mother in 2022 profoundly impacted Liz’s songwriting\, infusing her music with greater depth and perspective. Her most recent album\, New Life (2025)\, reflects this new chapter in her life\, showcasing both her personal growth and her continued evolution as an artist. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEleanor Buckland: \n\n\n\nEleanor Buckland made her start as one-third of Lula Wiles\, the Boston-based folk-rock trio that became an acoustic music scene favorite with their three critically hailed albums\, the most recent two released on Smithsonian Folkways Recordings. Now living in Durham\, NC\, the singer songwriter has turned to a new page as a solo artist. Buckland’s debut album You Don’t Have To Know (released October 2021 on Soundly Music) sets her deeply personal songs against inventive indie rock arrangements.  \n\n\n\nBorn and raised in Maine\, Buckland comes from a family full of musicians. Her grandmother\, Betty Buckland\, was prominent in the New England bluegrass scene\, while her father\, Andy Buckland\, played electric guitar in Boston area bands. It’s not surprising then that someone who grew up playing bluegrass fiddle music as well as singing along to Michelle Branch and Sheryl Crow in the car would wind up with varied musical tastes – something Buckland clearly demonstrates on her solo debut and in her live shows. \n\n\n\n“Buckland’s folksy drawl plays perfectly with this fresh set of pop tunes that are seemingly built for fans of contemporary FM radio acts like Kacey Musgraves and Taylor Swift\, both nostalgically rustic and immediately modern.” – WBUR  \n\n\n\nD \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

That’s quite a long time! As we enter into year 27  – after a great deal of soul searching and consideration – we have decided to bring this chapter to a close. 2026 will be the final year of The Bad Plus. We share this news with heavy hearts\, but also with great pride in what we have accomplished. It has been a privilege to share our music with the world and we leave behind a body of work that we could not be more proud of.  \n\n\n\nWe look forward to performing our final shows throughout the coming year and hope to see as many of you as possible. This band changed our lives. Thank you all for being a part of that. \n\n\n\nWith love and gratitude\, \n\n\n\nReid and Dave \n\n\n\n\nThe Bad Plus are the ultimate originals. A democratic unit with a clear vision and a refusal to conform to convention. For the past two decades they have played with spirit and adventure\, made their own rules and done so with a bold sense of creativity and intent. Avoiding easy categorization\, The Bad Plus has won critical acclaim and a legion of fans worldwide with their unique sound and flair for live performance. \n\n\n\nThe Bad Plus continues to push boundaries as founding members Reid Anderson (bass) and Dave King (drums) embark on a new piano-less incarnation of the band with Ben Monder (guitar) and Chris Speed (tenor saxophone) – instigating a new wave of excitement and anticipation within the band that is re-energizing their sound and inspiration. The Bad Plus have constantly searched to bridge genres and techniques while exploring the infinite possibilities of exceptional musicians working in perfect sync. \n\n\n\nThe Bad Plus is set to release their 18th album via Mack Avenue Records on Friday\, November 8th. “Evolution is necessary for life and creativity\,” say Dave King and Reid Anderson. “We’ve evolved\, but we’re still The Bad Plus.” \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

The New Jersey songwriter has written and recorded the bulk of his work in his basement studio over many late night sessions. Across Emily Can’t Sing\, French Blonde\, and his debut album Garden State Vampire\, he has sharpened his writing into something both ragged and precise: songs like “Fighting in the Car\,” “Off My Mind\,” “Shadow in the Sun\,” and “Birthday Baby (The Girl with No Smile)” feel diaristic without becoming slack\, polished without sanding off their nerves. His rise has unfolded in parallel with tours and dates alongside Cold War Kids\, Rainbow Kitten Surprise\, Spacey Jane\, Joywave\, Good Neighbours\, beabadoobee\, and Matt Maeson\, while his recorded work has also intersected with figures like Mt Joy and K.Flay. Across festival dates at Lollapalooza\, ACL\, and Sea.Hear.Now\, and headline shows across the US\, he has brought a massive rock energy to stages everywhere. After the release of Garden State Vampire – Stripped\, he is embarking on a solo headline tour\, bringing the personal\, intimate performances from his social media to the stage for the first time. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

Yet each line inevitably leads back to one place- New Orleans. \n\n\n\nSal Geloso has been living and playing music in New Orleans for over 17 years\, and his music echoes through the street corners to the coffee shops\, bar rooms and fire-lit swamps. Sal’s songbook is a rich aural tradition that traces a history of friendships\, love and loss\, and embodies the boldness of living a life that puts art at the complete forefront of existence. \n\n\n\nSally Baby is backed by his Silver Dollars\, a band comprised of collaborators and friends who are all in-demand musicians in and outside of New Orleans. They each bring an area of expertise that breathes further life into Sal’s music\, fleshing out the influences of Early Jazz\, New Orleans RnB and Brass Band music. They are: Zach Serlet (Bass)\, Steve DeTroy (Keys)\, Nathan Wolman (Trumpet)\, Oliver Tuttle (Trombone) and James Beaumont (Saxophone). Together\, the band placed silver in the 2024 Tiny Desk Competition with their video for the song ‘I’ve Got No More Tears Left To Cry’\, and the song was featured on NPR’s national show ‘Morning Edition’\, along with an interview with Sal. \n\n\n\nAlong with national recognition\, Sally Baby has had a surge of local popularity and was featured at both the French Quarter Festival\, the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival\, Savannah Music Festival.   The band will also be touring extensively in 2026\, with notable Shows at The Green River Festival\, Celebrate Brooklyn\, Shakori Hills Music Festival and many others. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Instagram

SUMMARY:Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: Total ticket price at checkout is $25\n\n\n\nAT THE DOOR: $30\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBlack Joe Lewis is the realest motherfucker there is. When Covid sidelined his touring this past year\, he started laying concrete to help support his baby mama and his kid. That’s fuckin’ real. \n\n\n\nWhen Joe and his band\, the Honeybears\, popped onto the national stage over a decade ago\, many critics embraced him—but there were still some who said they hadn’t paid their dues. Joe’s still here. Still going. Still cashing checks and snapping necks. The dues of hard work; the delirious heights of the industry\, along with the disappointments and low-hanging fruit—through it all\, Joe’s only honed his mastery over gut bucket blues guitar and his true voice. \n\n\n\nIt’s a vital\, distinctly American voice that never anticipated the attention it received\, never went looking for it either. It just started happening. The garage\, the blues\, the propulsive\, synergistic live performances that live somewhere between James Brown\, Lightnin’ Hopkins\, and MC5—those things were there from the beginning\, and they only really make sense in a live room\, not a press release. \n\n\n\nSharon Jones\, Charles Bradley\, Cedric Burnside\, Lightnin Malcolm\, The Dirtbombs\, Detroit Cobras\, The Strange Boys—a roll call of some of the most influential soul and garage acts of the last 25 years\, and bands Black Joe Lewis and the Honeybears have shared countless bills with. Has that whole soul-blues-garage explosion been commodified or folded into pop rock? Sure. But the ground floor was a vital space for people who like guitars and grease\, and at this point\, Black Joe Lewis is one of the last still standing from it. Last of a dying breed. Or maybe a missing link. Does that make him a throwback? A throwback to a throwback? It’d be easy to say so—but nah. Joe’s just doing his thing\, same as he always has\, regardless of what’s coming down the pipe. A stone-cold original\, and a veteran at that. \n\n\n\nIf you like whistling in your music and floppy-hat\, shaky-kneed crooning\, you might not get it—but that’s fine. There are plenty of intrepid\, degenerate weirdos who do. Those are the people Joe cares about. Not the glad-handing set. Not the fair-weather crowd chasing whatever’s hot. \n\n\n\nLike the title of his last album says\, “the difference between me and you” is Joe drawing a line between the wannabes and the ones who actually have the blues—whatever the hell that is. Joe’s concrete-pouring boss is gonna miss him. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

SUMMARY:Alash
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: $25\n\n\n\nAT THE DOOR: $35\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nALASH are masters of Tuvan throat singing (xöömei)\, a remarkable technique for singing multiple pitches at the same time. What distinguishes this group from earlier generations of Tuvan throat singers is the subtle infusion of modern influences into their traditional music. One can find complex harmonies\, western instruments\, and contemporary song forms in Alash’s music\, but its overall sound and spirit remain decidedly Tuvan. \n\n\n\nTrained in traditional Tuvan music since childhood\, the Alash musicians studied at Kyzyl Arts College just as Tuva was beginning to open up to the West. They formed a traditional ensemble and won multiple awards for traditional throat singingin international xöömei competitions\, both as an ensemble and as individuals. At the same time\, they paid close attention to new trends coming out of the West. They have borrowed newideas that mesh well with the sound and feel of traditionalTuvan music\, but they have never sacrificed the integrity of their own heritage in an effort to make their music more hip. \n\n\n\nAlash first toured the U.S. under the sponsorship of the OpenWorld Leadership program of the Library of Congress and the National Endowment for the Arts. Since then they have returned many times\, to the delight of American audiences. The Washington Post described their music as “utterly stunning\,” quipping that after the performance“audience members picked their jaws up off the floor.” \n\n\n\nAlash enjoys collaborating with musicians of all stripes. Since their early partnership with the legendary Sun Ra Arkestra\, they have joined forces with musicians across the spectrum—from country to classical to jazz to beatboxing. Alash appeared as guest artists on Béla Fleck & the Flecktones’ Grammy-winning holiday CD Jingle All the Way (2008). They joined Chicago’s innovative Fifth House Ensemble in a groundbreaking concert series called Sonic Meditations\, and later were part of a “global jam band” which recorded the soundtrack for the video game The Pathless. Most recently\, Bady-Dorzhu Ondar teamed up with beatboxer Shodekeh in a live recording of original Tuvan songs filtered through the creative artistry of hip hop musicians. \n\n\n\nBeyond performing\, Alash has a passion for teaching and promoting understanding between cultures.
