The James
While Joey and Chris and Donna were eating canned fish on Sunday I snuck out for brunch at the James in Essex. It was quiet when we first got there and was packed when we left. There was music and a great crowd….definitely a fun place to spend a few hours.

This Week at The Cut!
ย ~ย The Cut Liveย ~ย

Wednesday is Thanksgiving Eve โ also known as the BIGGEST bar night of the year. So you should probably spend it at the biggest bar in town! The Cut is hosting a DJ Dance Party with DJ Skully & DJ Vito in the venue. NO COVER. But if you want to impress those cousins in from out of town or make that ex from high school jealous, you can buy a VIP table for 4 that comes with a bottle of bubbly and cocktail service. Or just buy a rail seat so you have somewhere to leave your things, and can order drinks from a QR code and skip waiting at the bar!
And as we do every Wednesday, weโll also be hosting our weekly Seisiun! Join us for live traditional Celtic music in the restaurant. No cover! Musicians will gather starting at 6pm and play until 9pm. This is intended to be an intimate and collaborative celebration of live music for the whole community, so we hope youโll come by, grab a pint, and enjoy!
CLOSED THURSDAY FOR THANKSGIVNG
Friday is Rhythm of the Saints โ A Tribute to Paul Simon with The Gary Backstrom Band playing the music of the influential jam band, Jiggle the Handle. Doors at 7:00pm. Show at 8:00pm. There are still a table seats and rail seats available, as well at GA standing (aka dancing) tickets!
We will also have Cheryl Arena & Mike Dibari Duo playing in the restaurant from 7pm-9pm. No cover. Just come hang, grab a drink and a burger, and enjoy some live music!
Saturday Zane Christopher returns to The Cut for a homecoming show you wonโt want to miss. This North Shore native almost sold out last year, and tickets are going fast again, so donโt wait! Zane will be joined by Overserved Again. This is the perfect show to bring your out-of-town cousins to if they love Noah Kahan, Vance Joy, The Lumineers or Zach Bryan. There are still a few high tops and rail seats available. Doors at 7:00pm. Show at 8:00pm.
We are also bringing back Saturday Night DJs in the restaurant from 9 to close! DJ Vito Ferrara & Friends, every Saturday night. No cover. Follow us on social media for guest DJ updates!
As always, Little Sister will be serving their Best of The North Shore award-winning burgers (and so much more) starting at 5pm each night and now starting at noon on Saturdays and Sundays. Come early and grab food before the show or stay late and refuel after dancing!
