The Brothers Project
Allman Brothers Tribute Recreates the Early Muscle Shoals Scene
Fri, July 24, 2026 7:00pm
The Brothers Project brings one of New England's most authentic Allman Brothers experiences to The Fallout Shelter, reimagined as an intimate in-the-round recreation of the early Muscle Shoals scene unlike anything fans of this band have seen before. The band locks into the twin-guitar interplay, dual drumming, Hammond organ, and deep blues harp that made the Allmans one of America's greatest bands. All the hits, all the reverence, but like being in the studio instead of the stadium.
Blues For Greeny
Tribute to The Music of Peter Green
Sat, July 25, 2026 7:00pm
Peter Green remains one of rock’s most undersung guitar heroes, and Blues For Greeny is determined to keep his legacy alive. Digging deep into early Fleetwood Mac, the band captures the red-hot blues and twin-lead guitar fire of the Green era with grit and reverence. Led by Daniel "Dude" Cervantes of MRS. HENRY & Chest Fever, this hard-hitting tribute is built for fans of heavy blues and psychedelic rock at full volume.
Greg Piccolo & Heavy Juice
Thu, July 30, 2026 7:00pm
A New England Music Hall of Famer with multiple Blues Music Award nominations, Greg Piccolo has shared stages with visionaries such as Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Pat Benatar, and many more. Alongside Heavy Juice, he moves fluidly between haunting tenor sax ballads, honking rock and roll, and original R&B gems on guitar, every note in service of the song. Six decades in, he remains one of the most distinctive voices in traditional jazz, blues, and R&B, and this is a rare chance to see him up close.
Blues Torch
Pure Powerhouse Blues!
Fri, Aug 7, 2026 7:00pm
Ryan Newman, Matt Swanton, and Brad Dubay are three of New England's most electrifying young blues guitarists, brought together by an unplanned rehearsal jam that turned into a band. Backed by a veteran rhythm section, the combination of young intensity channeled through seasoned discipline makes the show hit differently. Three guitars, a century of road, and a sound that pulls from delta blues, Chicago electric, and Southern rock while answering to none of them alone.

Ft Koji Tsumoto
A Genre Bending Pure Power Experience!
Fri, Aug 14, 2026 7:00pm
Jon Finn has spent years lighting up The Fallout Shelter stage as lead guitarist for Steely Dan tribute No Static, but this time he brings his own band, the Jon Finn Group. Joined by Japanese fusion guitar master Koji Tsumoto, alongside Juli Finn, Larry Finn, Rich Cesarini, and Joe Santerre, they bring the power of Jeff Beck, the atmosphere of Pink Floyd, the complexity of Yes and King Crimson, and the ethereal shimmer of Enya. It's a genre-bending, pure power experience you won't want to miss.

Sat, Aug 22, 2026 7:00pm
When harmonica virtuoso Jason Ricci and organ master Bruce Katz share a bill, it's already a can’t miss night, but add guitar wizard Damon Fowler and it becomes something else entirely. Nights like this don't come around often, and when they do, it's usually at a festival. Pure roots blues from some of the best in the business, up close on The Fallout Shelter’s intimate stage.
