SUMMARY:Ted Leo
DESCRIPTION:Ted Leo is one of the finest songwriters of our generation\, even if it’s not entirely clear what generation that is. \nStarting in New York Hardcore with Citizen’s Arrest\, making the ‘90s safe for power-pop and Weller-esque hair with Chisel\, then singing our turbulent lives like we were smarter than we were with The Pharmacists\, and most recently providing equal parts sweetness and solace with Aimee Mann as The Both\, Ted never let us down. And now\, seven years after The Brutalist Bricks\, he has a new solo album. And it’s wonderful. \nThe songs on The Hanged Man\, recorded at a home-studio-in-transition in Wakefield\, RI\, with Ted playing almost all the instruments\, are some of the finest and most finely wrought of Ted Leo’s career. Ted describes the time working on the album as one of “personal desolation that felt fallow but was actually very fertile” and\, indeed\, lyrically\, The Hanged Man is suffused with hope of sorts but crushingly heavy. The concerns addressed\, whether personal trauma or the national disaster we’re all currently existing in\, matched with the range and vitality of the songcraft is inspiring\, even uplifting. \nThe Hanged Man offers the sharp bursts of skinny tie pop-punk fury one would expect from Ted—and even these feel streamlined like never before—but they are offset with an adventurousness in both tone and structure. The intention was to upend expectations but\, on songs like the bookends of “Moon Out of Phase” and “Let’s Stay On The Moon\,” the intention never gets in the way of the result. There’s no strain of effort in songs that are unlike anything Ted has done previously. The Hanged Man is a career high\, born through industry soul sickness\, nausea-inducing crisis\, and a talent that feels like secular grace.

Morgan Stanley\, Hertz\, IBM\, Intel and Yahoo to name a few. \nJackie is truly a “comic’s comic” whose refreshingly unique brand of sarcastic observational humor puts him in a class all his own\, apart from the many derivative cookie cutter comics plying the airways today. Audiences young and old appreciate his wit and rapid-fire “take no prisoners” delivery.

SUMMARY:Rob Flax's Boom Chick Trio - Dean Stevens opens
DESCRIPTION:Rob Flax possesses a rare combination of skills: he is an award-winning violinist\, classically trained but known for his jazz and improvisational pyrotechnics and irresistible grooves\, plus a deep knowledge of American fiddle traditions. He’s also a powerhouse vocalist\, capable of silky crooning a la Nat King Cole or visceral Chicago blues shouts\, and a consummate songwriter with lyrical depth. It takes a special kind of musician to keep pace with Rob’s stylistic breadth and depth\, but after much searching\, he’s finally found a band that can keep up: Rob Flax’s Boom Chick Trio features Slava Tolstoy on guitar and Chris Sartori on bass. \nBorn and raised in Costa Rica\, Dean Stevens is an exuberant performer of distinctive style and wit. He has established himself as a formidable creator and interpreter of a wide spectrum of songs in English and Spanish. His own material explores a variety of personal and social topics\, paints sketches of people and places\, celebrates the Earth\, and annoys the narrow minded.

SUMMARY:Daughtry - 20 Years Unplugged Tour
DESCRIPTION:With Ryan Perdz on support \nDaughtry celebrates 20 years with an intimate acoustic performance!\nFormed in 2006\, the Grammy Award®-nominated\, multi-platinum rock band Daughtry has remained a dominant force for nearly two decades. Fronted by powerhouse vocalist Chris Daughtry\, the band has sold more than 11 million records worldwide\, earned four Grammy nominations\, received American Music Awards\, and achieved multiple Billboard chart-toppers\, including three No. 1 rock singles. Entering a bold new chapter with their latest albums\, Dearly Beloved and Shock to the System\, Daughtry delivers a harder-edged\, high-impact statement that reaffirms their evolution and staying power—proving they’re not just part of the rock conversation but are still driving it. \nRYAN PERDZ\nRyan Perdz is a 24-year-old singer\, songwriter\, and multi-instrumentalist from Buffalo\, NY. Raised on his grandparents’ family farm\, he began teaching himself guitar at age ten and expanded into bass\, violin\, and mandolin\, developing a hands-on approach to songwriting and arrangement. \nInfluenced by artists such as Nirvana\, Chris Cornell\, Red Hot Chili Peppers\, and Led Zeppelin\, Perdz channels the emotional weight of 90s rock through a modern lens\, balancing grit with melody. His music often explores isolation\, self-doubt\, and perseverance\, delivered with a clarity that feels lived-in rather than ornamental. \nAfter independently releasing multiple singles and his First Sight EP an racking up tens of millions of views across social media\, Perdz cultivated a loyal audience through consistent self-directed output. In 2025\, he signed with Big Machine Rock and began recording his debut full-length album. His growing catalogue of original music has generated millions of streams\, and his audience continues to expand across digital platforms as he releases singles from his forthcoming debut\, including “Sour” and “Heavy Eyes.” \nAs he prepares to unveil his debut album\, Ryan Perdz stands positioned at the forefront of a new generation of rock artists shaped by both digital culture and classic influences. \nVIP OFFERINGS\nVIP Tier 1 -One (1) Stage Played Acoustic Guitar Signed by The Members of Daughtry\, Special Polaroid Moment and Professional Photo to Commemorate This Once in a Lifetime Experience\, Meet & Greet and Step & Repeat Photo With The Band\, One (1) Collectible Tour Lithograph\, One (1) Signed\, Shock To The System (Part Two) 12″ Vinyl \,One (1) VIP Exclusive Pick Set\, One (1) Pair of Official Daughtry Drumsticks \, One (1) Commemorative VIP Laminate \nVIP Tier 2 – Access to Special Q&A with the members of Daughtry\, Group Photo Opportunity with the members of Daughtry\, One (1) Collectible Tour Lithograph\, One (1) Signed\, Shock To The System (Part Two) 12″ Vinyl\, One (1) VIP Exclusive Pick Set\, One (1) Pair of Official Daughtry Drumsticks \, One (1) Commemorative VIP Laminate \nVIP Tier 3 – One (1) Collectible Tour Lithograph\, One (1) Signed\, Shock To The System (Part Two) 12″ Vinyl\, One (1) VIP Exclusive Pick Set\, One (1) Pair of Official Daughtry Drumsticks\, One (1) Commemorative VIP Laminate *Please note VIP Tier 4 does not have artist participation.* \nPLEASE NOTE: This show has early doors beginning at 6:00 PM; the show will begin at 7:00 PM.

SUMMARY:CAM Studio Art: Design and Print the Folly Cove Way
DESCRIPTION:Step into the spirit of the legendary Folly Cove Designers and learn the art of block printing with artist Mary Rhinelander in this four-week course. This class blends design fundamentals\, creative play\, and the rich history of Cape Ann’s iconic design collective. Referencing her unpublished book\, Design and How\, you’ll explore the principles of design that Virginia Lee Demetrios taught her students—selecting a theme and exploring it deeply through clarity of line\, rhythm\, repetition\, and pattern—and you will discover how her timeless ideas can elevate your own artistic voice. Each week builds your confidence as you sketch\, carve\, and print your way towards an original finished artwork. \nPlease note: This class has four sessions. \nMary Rhinelander is a professional artist with an MFA in printmaking. Gloucester is in her DNA\, starting with great-grandparents who spent summers on Eastern Point. She lives in East Gloucester\, in a yellow clapboard house once known as “The Summer Art House” where painter Theresa Bernstein and her painter/printmaker husband\, William Meyerowitz\, spent many decades (starting in 1924). Having purchased her home directly from their estate\, William’s etching press is still happily living in the sun-filled basement studio. Mary has had many solo and group shows and her work is in both public and private collections. She has painted murals\, designed logos and book covers\, illustrated for a variety of publications\, and taught students of all ages. In 2004 she founded Mermade Press\, a fine art card business. With a deep affinity for the Folly Cove Designers and Virginia Lee Demetrios in particular\, it has been Mary’s great pleasure to bring block printing workshops into Cape Ann’s public schools with the support of CAM and the Gloucester Education Foundation.
