SUMMARY:James & Case Matinee
DESCRIPTION:Jimmy Peterson (Jughead) and Casey Gooby are certainly no strangers to the game. It’s one they’ve been playing their entire lives.

While Peterson’s original songs draw on some unusual influences such as Chris Whitley and Ry Cooder\, the set also contains a variety of classic cover material from a pantheon of American music that runs the gamut including Dylan\, John Prine and Jerry Garcia.\nIf you’re interested in getting an authentic take on some great homegrown music\, be sure to catch these guys.\nWe request a minimum of $5 per adult listener\, with all money collected going to these two dudes for gas station coffee and guitar strings.

SUMMARY:Luke Callen & Long Mama
DESCRIPTION:About Luke Callen: \nIn an age of quick fixes\, flashing screens\, and pop ‘songs’ that are more formula than art\, an album that takes its sweet time is a radical act. “Also Going Nowhere\,” Luke Callen’s third full-length effort\, is just that – a collection of songs that spread out through time and space\, dripping with honest Midwest charm and a mischievous glint. It’s music that you can relax into\, paired with lyrics you’ll want to chew on and savor\, that ask something of their listener. These songs are proof and reminder: you don’t actually have to go anywhere at all to\, you know\, get somewhere. \nhttps://lukecallen.com/ \nAbout Long Mama: \nLong Mama’s music blisters with the heart and grit of someone who has lost hard\, loved harder\, and licked her burns until they stung then silvered. In a drafty attic just west of the Milwaukee River they grew up on\, you’ll find songwriter Kat Wodtke (Wood-key) raking through notebooks in search of a salve: words\, stories\, and sounds to temper the dumpster fires we never mean to light. Flickering behind each song is Wodtke’s lived insight into our human faults and fissures — the moments in life when we can slip and lose our footing or claw our way out\, better people on the other side of the blaze. Featuring Andrew Koenig (electric guitar)\, Sam Odin (upright bass)\, and Nick Lang (drums). \nhttps://www.longmamamusic.com/ \nLuke and Long Mama are no stranger to The Hotel. They effortlessly make their audience feel warm and familiar. You’ll be rehashing their lyrics long after the show. \nWe request a minimum of $6 per adult listener\, with all money collected going to the artists. Bring a blanket or a lawn chair and spend the afternoon basking in the music with the Mississippi as the backdrop.

SUMMARY:Ben Cosgrove
DESCRIPTION:Ben takes over the porch and will fill hearts and souls with his glorious nature inspired compositions. \nABOUT THE ARTIST \nBen Cosgrove is a traveling composer\, pianist\, and multi-instrumentalist from northern New England. He performs regularly all over the country\, presenting a unique variety of original instrumental music that explores themes of landscape\, geography\, and environment while straddling a line between folk and classical music. His “electric and exhilarating” solo piano performances are at once dazzling and intimate: music that has been described as “stunning” and “compelling and powerful\,” — Red Line Roots has called him “stupidly talented” — all presented with “warmth\, humor\, honesty\, and the easy familiarity of a troubadour.” \nThroughout his career\, the strongest forces guiding Ben’s composition and performances have been his deep and abiding interests in landscape\, geography\, place\, and environment. For years\, he has been fascinated and inspired by the different ways people understand and interact with the landscapes around them\, and through songs with names like “Prairie Fire\,” “The Machine in the Garden\,” “Champlain\,” “Kennebec\,” “Volcano\,” and others\, he seeks to explore those relationships and reflect them in sound. “I don’t think of my pieces as rendering places in music\,” he once remarked during an interview with Harvard Magazine\, “but more just as a way of responding to places musically. Writing music just turns out to be a great way for me to process the world.” \nCosgrove’s new album Bearings\, represents the latest chapter in a career that to date has included solo performances in 49 states (all but Delaware)\, as well as artist residencies and collaborations with Acadia\, Isle Royale\, Glacier\, and Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Parks\, White Mountain National Forest\, the Schmidt Ocean Institute\, the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology\, Chulengo Expeditions\, the New England National Scenic Trail\, and NASA. To write the new record\, Cosgrove relied on a novel and improvisation-focused compositional style that aimed to reflect the real experience of learning topographical space through movement. “I’ve always been a bit obsessed with motion\,” writes Cosgrove in the liner notes\, “and I liked the idea of forcing myself to write a whole record on the move\, leaving no opportunity to overthink the songs before they had a chance to breathe. And conceptually\, there was something about having to find a song in the moment by moving around the piano — feeling out its contours like you might learn those of a landscape by walking across it — that felt important and true to the way I engage with the world in the rest of my life.” While this approach unifies the album\, the landscapes and ideas that inspire its songs range from Hawaiian volcanoes to Kansas skies\, and from Midwestern rail yards to the writings of landscape scholar J.B. Jackson. \nThe initial tracking for Bearings was completed on a Yamaha U3 piano with engineer Kevin Harper at Kleesounds in Nashville\, Tennessee. To build out the new music sonically\, Ben then returned to work with producer Dan Cardinal at Dimension Sound Studios in Boston\, with whom he had previously collaborated on 2021’s The Trouble With Wilderness. \nThe new songs further illuminate Cosgrove’s unique position as a musician suspended somewhere between genres: “I’m either a singer-songwriter who doesn’t sing\, or I’m a composer who behaves like a singer-songwriter\,” he has said\, and his chatty\, disarming stage presence would certainly make him seem more like a folk musician than a classical pianist. In addition to his solo instrumental work\, Cosgrove regularly tours\, records\, and collaborates with artists from across the worlds of folk\, rock\, and Americana music\, and while much of his music recalls the work of George Winston\, Keith Jarrett\, Nils Frahm\, or Ludovico Einaudi\, his years of experience operating in the worlds of folk\, pop\, and Americana/roots music are reflected in some of his songs’ more impassioned and percussive moments. \nThis is especially true of Cosgrove’s previous studio album\, 2021’s The Trouble With Wilderness\, a set of twelve lush and textured pieces that each considered moments of ambiguity and overlap between the built and natural environments. His most successful album to date\, Wilderness was featured as the subject of an episode of the NHPR show Outside/In\, was deemed one of the best new releases of spring 2021 by WBUR\, and was called “beautiful and fascinating” (The Maine Edge)\, “instant relief” (The Boston Globe)\, “deeply impressive” (Independent Clauses)\, and “immediately evocative and fully arresting… brim[ming] with technical mastery and emotional capital” (Seven Days). \nWilderness was preceded in turn by 2017′s Salt — “a breakup album about estuaries\,” as Ben has jokingly described it onstage — in which he explored feelings of ambiguity\, ungroundedness\, and loss by writing quiet\, shifting\, and intense music for piano and guitar inspired by salt marshes\, fault lines\, tidal rivers\, and other landscapes that exist in a constant state of flux. Seven Days called the album a “majestic entry into the composer’s catalog… replete with near-imperceptible embellishments and forward-thinking concepts\,” and Junction described it as “a poetry of tones and turns and motion and play that transcends everyday language… it’s a breakup album\, and it’s also a salve.” \nIn addition to his solo work\, Ben has performed and recorded with a wide variety of other artists from across the spectrums of folk\, classical\, jazz\, and rock music\, composed string and horn arrangements for other artists’ projects\, and he has contributed music to projects by clients including Florentine Films\, Grand Teton National Park\, Glacier National Park\, Katmai National Park & Preserve\, New Hampshire Public Radio\, Bristlecone Media\, the Conservation Media Group\, and the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. In 2016\, his piece “Carrying Capacity\,” a string work inspired by ecological data collected at Isle Royale National Park\, was premiered by Wild Shore New Music at their annual festival in Homer\, Alaska and then performed at Park Service sites in New York City and Washington\, DC. In 2022\, he joined forces with the New Hampshire writer Howard Mansfield to create and perform A Journey to the White Mountains in Words and Music\, a stage production combining Mansfield’s words with Cosgrove’s music\, which the two then performed in theaters around the state. Finally\, Ben has collaborated\, performed\, and recorded with a diverse array of other musicians that includes Max García Conover\, Steph Jenkins\, Darlingside\, GoldenOak\, Caroline Cotter\, Maya De Vitry\, Joel Thetford\, The Social Animals\, Town Meeting\, Kaiti Jones\, Avi Jacob\, David Berkeley\, Jamie Kallestad\, Palaver Strings\, Maine Youth Rock Orchestra\, and Ghost of Paul Revere. \nA 2023 performance in a former quarry in Essex\, New York \nBen also writes short nonfiction\, and his essays about sound\, art\, landscape\, and place have been published by Orion\, Appalachia\, Northern Woodlands\, Taproot\, Literary North\, The Harvard Advocate\, The Island Review\, Maine Farms\, and land that i live. His essay “A Space Filled With Moving” was published as a chapbook by Literary North in 2019. He is a former Middlebury Fellow in Environmental Journalism\, in which capacity he researched and wrote about the relationship between sense of place and the conservation of natural soundscapes in national parks. Additionally\, Ben has been the Signet Society Artist-in-Residence at Harvard University\, a writing fellow at the Vermont Studio Center\, and a recipient of the St. Botolph Club Foundation Emerging Artist Award. He sits on the board of the Northern Woodlands Education Center and has spoken about art\, environment\, ecology\, and place at primary schools\, colleges\, and universities\, at the annual meeting of the Association of Environmental Studies and Sciences\, at the Northern Woodlands Annual Conference\, at the 2021 Maine Land Conservation Maine Land Conservation Conference\, at the Appalachian Mountain Club’s Annual Summit\, at NASA’s 2023 Exploration Science Festival\, and at the 2017 Princeton Graduate Student Conference on Water and the Making of Place in North America. He also developed and teaches the workshops “Reflecting Place in Music” and “Music of the Landscape” most summers at the Sitka Center for Art & Ecology in Oregon. \nBen is currently an artist-in-residence\, helping to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Upper Mississippi River National Fish and Wildlife Refuge through his music. \nPhoto by Rooted In Light Media

SUMMARY:Djangophonique w/ Under Paris Skies Duo
DESCRIPTION:Please welcome them for their first time playing at The Hotel. Djangophonique is an award winning project that delivers the infectious joy\, and expressive freedom that is at the heart of Django Reinhardt’s jazz manouche. With respect for the tradition and a fearless creativity that bends the conventions of the style\, Djangophonique is keeping the Hot Club revival alive and well. The result is a sound that’s unmistakable to fans of the music\, and alluring to the uninitiated—a sound that can bring the lively energy of a Parisian dance hall to the quietest listening room or captivate a buzzing festival audience with the aching nostalgia of a shimmering ballad. \nDjangophonique has been described as “…the cleanest\, most genuine manouche jazz that can be heard in Michigan” (Local Spins). Led by guitar player Andrew Brown\, a true disciple of the style\, the project has cultivated a community of musicians who channel the tenacious agility that the music demands. In 2022 the group released their first studio album\, “Introducing Djangophonique\,” which won Best Jazz Album\, Traditions Award\, as well as earning them Artist Of The Year at the WYCE Jammies. \nIn 2023 the group began a new chapter with the addition of vocalist Katie Smith\, who’s soulful approach channels the mystery and appeal of an unplaceable era. With a second studio album and a full concert schedule in the works for 2024\, Djangophonique is poised to forge a connection with an expansive audience through the resonance of their artistry. \n$6 MINIMUM cover—all $ collected goes to the artists. \nShow is outside\, weather permitting. If weather does not cooperate\, we’ll bring the show indoors\, under the arch. Bring a blanket or a lawn chair and get settled in for a few hours of beautiful music.

SUMMARY:Erik Koskinen Trio w/ Dandy L. Freling Opening
DESCRIPTION:Erik Koskinen is an American singer-songwriter\, multi-instrumentalist and producer\, whose music is not categorized by sub-genres. Stylistically he is on his own while heavily influenced by American roots music. The rhythmic integrity and musical tone is as important as the lyrical content and the artistic intent. Koskinen has reverently entered the anthology of uniquely crafted wry songs with the likes of Woody Guthrie and Ry Cooder while speaking as plainly as your neighbor. The Minneapolis Star Tribune calls Koskinen “the real deal” and “The Best country songwriter in Minnesota” \nDandy L. Freling based in Milwaukee\, WI is a boot stompin’ finger pickin’ folkie and highway-kind traveler combining a touch of the high and lonesome hollers of the Appalachian hill people with the low-down\, dusty grooves of the cosmic cowboys\, Dandy has created a unique songwriter banquet sure to satisfy the hunger of any weary passerby. A boot stompin’ finger picker with remnant hollers of the greats of our past – Don’t be afraid to stop awhile\, and fill up your plate\, there’s plenty to go around. \n“Koskinen’s a lights-out guitar player and his band is as good as any band in the country. But he’s also a top-shelf writer\, with a blade-sharp wit and love songs so real and tender they seem to transcend the form. I know of few writers whose relationship to their own landscape\, in this case the rural north\, is so elemental\, and so integral. His songs feel like weather. People know him in Minnesota\, where most bar bands seem to cover at least one of his songs\, but otherwise he’s still one of the best kept secrets in the country. He sings about an America that doesn’t get much play anymore\, the one where the people at the bottom can’t quite get ahead\, and where working people aren’t cartoon props in a culture war\, but shrewd human beings living hard lives\, and hard loves. His songs have the diamond-hard clarity and simplicity of Tom Petty\, and like Petty\, Koskinen can sing a literal statement without metaphor or ornament\, and make it move like poetry. The spiritual hunger in rock ‘n’ roll that came from blues and gospel is still a hunger in these songs\, and if you listen hard\, you can hear that lean coyote voice — wary\, feral\, full of fierce delight — lighting up the wee hours from somewhere out on the prairie.” – Jeffrey Foucault \nAbout the venue: As this show is an acoustic listening session\, only 50 ticketed guests will be admitted for seated viewing. 20 Standing Room Only tickets will be available on the day of the event for $25. \nBuy Your Tickets Now!

DESCRIPTION:The OMC has not made it to Munich’s Oktoberfest yet\, but it certainly isn’t for lack of trying. We hear Joerg is volunteering as a guide\, once the OMC International Tour kicks off in the Spaten Tent at Munich’s Theresienwiese. But will they get the Beard into a pair of Lederhosen?

SUMMARY:Jay Vonn
DESCRIPTION:Jay is an Americana/Folk musician who has been writing songs for as long as he can remember. Influenced by everything and anything\, Jay is particularly drawn to the great song writers such as Bob Dylan and Townes Van Zandt. His songs reflect American life and make a person yearn to hit the open road or grab a boat and just float on down the river. \nWait till you hear this guy’s stories! Just listen to Jay’s music\, and you’ll get his story. \nMinimum $5 cover for live entertainment. Help keep Jay on the road\, spreading music across the land. \nListeners get $1 off doubles\, pints and 1919 Rootbeer during the show by mentioning this post.  \nPeace.
