Adam Ezra Band

August 2, 2019 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

It’s difficult to impart the roots-steeped, road-trippin’ essence of the Adam Ezra Group into a single word, but frontman Adam Ezra nonetheless keeps one in mind as something of a mantra: community. Community is epitomized by a belief that has long doubled as a mission statement for the group: namely, that making music together is itself a form of grassroots organizing, capable of nothing less than changing the world. For their most recent release, Hurricane Wind (2017), the Adam Ezra fanbase turned the full power of its collective hurricane wind outward, and shared the music for free with over 5000 people over the course of two weeks. Such a groundswell of activity wouldn’t have been possible even a few years ago; “Hurricane Wind,” to the band, represents both a celebration and reaffirmation of how remarkably that community has grown. Adam’s grassroots efforts recently caught the eye of John Oates, of Hall & Oates fame. For the past few years, Ezra and Oates have been regular writing partners, meeting up in Nashville between tours. Three of their co-writes are featured on Hurricane Wind, and Oates himself joined Ezra in the studio to sing and play on the album. They performed their first co-written song, “All I Am“, live in-studio as an acoustic duet.“Not since Springsteen and Bono have I seen a lead singer with his talent and charisma.” – Jack Casey, General Manager WERS radio in Boston. Don’t miss this night! Advance discounted tickets $20 available from the box office. Regular tickets $25 online and on the day of the concert.
