Oh dear, My atomic piles are acting up…and there’s no cure but to present Mr. Dennis Brennan, the only cure for the blues. This cat is the sodium lamp of vocalization, with a great collection of hats and tunes to ease your pain and assuage your inner übermensch. Big D is one of my fave singers and easy to follow into his pungent cave of She did me wrong. Girls, tighten that bustiér. D is bringing along a new guitarist for us to taste: Mr.Tim Gearan. Known by reputation only, he comes here to ruin your life, musically speaking. I can’t wait. Temple throbbing provided by that Rheumful ‘o Blooze mainstay and imperial wizard, Mr. Chris Rivelli. I’ll be on bass as usual. N.B. Our hours are back to 8:30 to 11:30

Mikey, long known as a silver-tongued crooner and water-slide glitarist, wrecked the joint last time around. We’re aiming for a repeat performance as he drags in his long time buddy George McCann, on Qatar, kicking and screaming. Seems these two cats had a hot band once, but now are satisfied feeding me kielbasa and listening to my bad jokes. Even Benny Benson, our Irish Ace of Pace and agitator par excellance is motivated to skim the froth and get down to the nitty gritty. So, come early and stay late. Bring a date and dine by the whites of her eyes!
Tonight from 7-9pm at Minglewoodtavern Atlat in Gloucester John is pleased to have his long-time, high harmonizing friend Robert Brown joining him. He hope’s you’ll consider giving them a listen; they’ve got a good thing going. He’s the Paul to his John, the Phil to his Don, the Peaches to his Herb.
He says, let’s shake a collective fist at this last blast of wintry weather, and get all cozy at Minglewood. The food is wonderful, the beer list expansive.

Special Guests: CHICK & ELLEN!

He’s a study in fingerpick blues and American folk. She’s a
songbird with the voice of an angel. He’s simplistic and
unassuming. She’s bravado and confidence. He’s a little bit
Ralph. She’s a little bit Alice. Together, they come to us as Chick Marston & Ellen Ford… two of the many valued
treasures we quietly keep stashed away here on the salty
shores of Cape Ann. Such a special place we live in! ~ Fly Dinner with great music! *Each week features a special, invited musical guest Dave Trooper’s Kitchen… Tenderloin Tips over Salad, $10.95(while they last)
