JESSE AHERN
Think early Springsteen & Woody Guthrie. When Jesse Ahern walks onstage, he looks like a regular guy - albeit one with a six-string strapped across his body and an anchor tattoo under his right eye. As he tears through his set, easily rousing brand new crowds to shout his choruses back in his face, it’s clear Jesse could be everybody’s friend.
Ahern’s tunes hold the clenched fists of the working class. Others put on full display the raw open heart of a man who is dedicated to love, and has known enough loss to cherish what he has at home. Still others reveal the tender, protective arms of a father who misses his kids when he’s off touring the world.
On tour, Ahern stands before a giant backdrop emblazoned with the words ROOTS ROCK REBEL. Three words that proclaim the truth about his music, and the man himself. The new album produced by Ted Hutt (Dropkick Murphys, Gaslight Anthem) takes those three words a giant step further.
Ahern has spent the last few years touring the world, sharing stages with Dropkick Murphys, Frank Turner, Chuck Ragan, Rancid, Jaime Wyatt, The Interrupters, and The Record Company. With the release of the “Roots Rock Rebel” Ahern will travel many more miles around the globe, converting more first time crowds into future longtime fans.
MY DRUTHERS
Rebel songs of Ireland & the Sea! Consisting of a rotating lineup of all-stars from the Connecticut music scene, My Druthers has been hitting it hard these past few years with shows throughout New England, the Midwest & Southeastern US, as well as Thailand, Singapore, Cambodia, and Vietnam.
The Druthers brothers haul to the fore a lifetime spent in punk rock and rebel folk scenes, and they bring that energy and aggression to the stage in the form of shanty nights, pub sings, & punk shows both at home and abroad. Renowned for their raucous & rowdy take on the age-old tradition, it’s hard not to raise a pint, stomp your feet, and sing along with these salty rebels and CT shantymen!
The fellas have performed with: the Tossers, Off With Their Heads, Derek Warfield & the Young Wolfe Tones, Lenny Lashley’s Gang of One, Enter the Haggis, Dublin City Ramblers, Jesse Ahern, the Peelers, Skald (France), the Dreadnoughts, Kilmaine Saints, and many others.
