The Music Roundup 22/01/20

Local music news & events

• Local lights: A music-friendly taphouse and grill kicks off a new weekly series, NH Music Collective Artist Showcase. The first show offers singer-songwriter Paul Driscoll, one-man band Ryan Williamson and country singer April Cushman, riding high on the release of her new album, The Long Haul. NHMC shines a light on the region’s original music, as well as providing booking services, artist development and production. Thursday, Jan. 20, 7 p.m., Area 23, 254 N. State St. (Smokestack Center), Concord, thearea23.com.

• Soulful time: Dance away the winter/pandemic blues with Mica’s Groove Train, a six-piece R&B band with an edge. The band is led by charismatic singer and keyboard player Yamica Peterson, a ubiquitous presence on the regional scene with solo and ensemble shows, a collaboration with guitarist Don Severance in the Mica-Sev Project and the father-daughter duo Family Affair, with fellow scene fixture Pete Peterson. Friday, Jan. 21, 8:30 p.m., Strange Brew Tavern, 88 Market St., Manchester. See micasgroovetrain.com.

• Slight detour: While sipping the house special, mimosa-adjacent Sledgehammer, enjoy Paul Wolstencroft on keys for an early event, dubbed Slightly Stoopid Brunch after the band he joined in 2013. Their history dates back to SoCal’s early surf punk scene; late Sublime singer Bradley Nowell discovered them during a stint at a rehab clinic run by the mother of co-founder Miles Doughty. Wolstencroft also plays with Organically Good Trio. Saturday, Jan. 22, 9 a.m., The Goat, 50 Old Granite St., Manchester, goatnh.com.

• Original play: For their first hometown appearance since last summer, Married Iguana is joined by regional standouts The Humans Being and Earthmark for a rollicking event presented by local promoter Jigs Music. Their debut EP includes one of the best songs to come out in 2021; “Go With The Flow” chugs along like a rolling party bus, aided by scorching guitar licks from front man and main songwriter Brett Higgins. Saturday, Jan. 22, 8 p.m., Shaskeen Pub, 909 Elm St., Manchester, $10. See facebook.com/JigsMusic.

• The junction: Learn about the intersection between classical music and jazz at Up Close & Personal, a six-concert series featuring a sumptuous prix fixe dinner and chamber music from the Portsmouth Symphony Orchestra. The upcoming event’s centerpiece is Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue” arranged for piano quartet, performed on the venue’s Steinway by Boston pianist Tianhong Yang. Sunday, Jan. 23, 5:30 p.m., Jimmy’s Jazz & Blues Club, 135 Congress St., Portsmouth, $75 at ticketmaster.com.

The Music Roundup 22/01/13

Local music news & events

• Comedy tonight: A solid lineup of local standup is led by snarkmeister supreme Jay Chanoine, with support from Mike Gray, Ronnie Partridge and Claremont comic Chad Blodgett. Mona Forgione of event presenter Gone Rogue Productions hosts the gathering, and there’s no better remedy for the Omicron Blues than an evening of jokes, as giggling past the graveyard is easier than whistling. Thursday, Jan. 13, 7:30 p.m., Backyard Brewery, 1211 S. Mammoth Road, Manchester, $15 at eventbrite.com.

• Twisting tunes: Adding music to a made-in-heaven blend of artisan pretzels and craft beer, Jessye DeSilva is among the regional performers slated to appear through March in downtown Manchester. Upcoming in the weekly series are Ramez Mataz (Jan. 21), Paul Nelson (Jan. 28), Jim Dozet (Feb. 4) and Kevin Horan (Feb. 11). Local treasure Alli Beaudry stops by for a solo appearance on Feb. 25 and is joined by Nick Phaneuf on March 11. Friday, Jan. 14, 7 p.m., The Hop Knot, 1000 Elm St., Manchester, thehopknot.com.

• Holiday redux: Keep the seasonal spirit alive with Morgan James: A Very Magnetic Post Christmas, rescheduled from early December. The singer draws from her album, containing skillfully curated nuggets like William Bell’s “Every Day Will Be Like A Holiday” and “Backdoor Santa,” the latter from the 1968 Atco Records holiday compilation Soul Christmas, along with standards and a few winning originals. Saturday, Jan. 15, 8 p.m., Rex Theatre, 23 Amherst St., Manchester, $25 to $65 at palacetheatre.org.

• Remembrance: Though the show happens just below the borderline, Rock In Peace – A Tribute To Chucky Tester is very much a New Hampshire happening, as four of the state’s bands gather to honor a beloved member of its music community, who passed too soon. Prospect Hill, A Simple Complex, Mindset X and Blindspot all perform, which proceeds going to the late drummer and band leader’s family. Sunday, Jan. 16, noon, A-Brews Tap & Grill, 1794 Bridge St., Unit 1A, Dracut, Mass., $20 at ticketleap.com

• Jam together: Led by the woman who put the Mama in Mama Kicks back when, Monday’s Muse is back, an open session topped by a local artist every week, with a house band including Lisa Guyer, John Mederios, Geoff Bates, Nate Comp and Steve Baker. This week’s featured guest is Devin Cordeiro; with Bob Vose on Jan. 24 and bona fide rock star Charlie Farren closing out the month on Jan. 31. Monday, Jan. 17, 7 p.m., Stumble Inn Bar & Grill, 20 Rockingham Road, Londonderry, stumbleinnnh.com.
