Mama's Broke
2024-09-18 19:00 - 21:00 | Lucas Hicks Auditorium
Mama’s Broke is a powerful duo that deliver a compelling performance with heart and raw energy. Although highly influenced by their Canadian roots, Lisa and Amy are based out of nowhere and everywhere.
Their two strong voices blend to create haunting harmonies, while they artfully juggle fiddle, banjo, guitar and mandolin, and incorporate traditional dance and foot percussion into their performance. Their original -and often dark- compositions push the boundaries of tradition and the constraints of genre. Drawing from old-time, Quebecois, blues, punk, celtic, balkan and doom metal, they create a soundscape that is both familiar and new.
Sept 18th: Mama’s Broke @ 7:00 pm, $22 Adv, $25 Day of Show

Improv Jam
2024-09-17 18:00 - 19:30, 2024-08-20 18:00 - 19:30 | Ethos West Stage
The sweet sweet jam that can actually help you “unstick” your creative flow! Kind of an un jamming jam? Isn’t it so weird that Jam Bands are basically ever-flowing nonstop musical noodling but actual jams are either solidified fruit goo or places where logs or traffic come to a stand still?
Why’s that a thing?
Circling back though- 1st and 3rd Tuesday improv Jams are more like the flowing noodley kind of jams- where everyone can play and learn from each other. “Improv like no one is watching” 6-8pm. Show up and Jam!

Marty O'Reilly (Trio)
2024-09-10 19:00 - 21:00 | Lucas Hicks Auditorium
Explaining Marty O’Reilly’s music is like describing a dream. It feels familiar, but at the same time unchartered. His songs sound bluesy but not blues, folk but not folk, soulful but not soul. Marty’s voice is beautiful and unique, his lyrics stark yet lush over gritty electrified guitar, melding beautifully into genre-defying music within the vast definitions of Americana. One can hear an urgency and complexity in the songs, expressing something elemental and perhaps contradictory: love and anger, joy and pain, real and imagined.
Sept 10th: Marty O’Reilly (Trio) @ 7 pm, $22 Adv, $25 Day of Show

Mbrascatu
2024-09-08 19:00 - 21:00 | Lucas Hicks Auditorium
A favorite the last time they played the New Prospect, Mbrascatu plays a style of music that is a cross-pollination of numerous influences, including spaghetti Westerns, immigrant dance music of Eastern Europe, psych rock and folk, to create a unique blend of sounds. Along with bands like Calexico , Devotchka and Gogol Bordello, they infuse modern indie music with a global flavor.
Don’t miss the chance to see these folks!
