One Night Band

THE LEGEND CONTINUES
Sat Night 8/21 in Cambridge

I don't think that musicians get all the credit they deserve. A few select are worshiped while the vast majority of the drumstick twirlers, guitar-scale playing Hendrix neophytes are often just perceived as little more than hungry souls in life's dorm rooms. You know, the Underfoot creative types. The Too Cool for School jam session Nighthawks. Or worse - just as lazy kids. Here's one way to have your faith in your common band returned: This Saturday marks the 2nd Year of Boston's One Night Band - this is a celebration of spontaneity, creativity and Boston. The performances are genuinely hard work as is bringing it all together - and this night benefits a local music charity. Yes Virginia, this will be good...


Launched in 2009, One Night Band is a day-long music experiment in which 40 selected Boston musicians are randomly shuffled into bands of five on a Saturday morning. These newly formed bands must prepare a four-song set (including one cover) to play in front of live audiences for the first time ever - it unfolds this Saturday night at the legendary the Middle East. Our hat is off to One Night Band producers at Boston Band Crush, for this monumental undertaking. Be there on Saturday at 8pm.
