Jim Boggia

Friday
July 13


Like a digital player permanently set in shuffle mode, he accesses riffs and rhymes with a sort of free-associative glee. At a recent acoustic gig, he managed to interpolate Paul McCartney's "Live and Let Die" into the middle of one of his own tunes; flirt with the hook of a sappy Chicago super-hit from the seventies; ably pluck out a verse of "Don't Cry For Me, Argentina" on the guitar; and lecture the rapt audience on the origins of "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft." (For the record, mysterious pop band Klaatu cut the track first, then the Carpenters turned it into a bizarre quasi-hit. Who knew?

Fat City Reprise
The Mark

Friday
August 31



live recording

Fat City Reprise
Formed in Philadelphia, Fat City Reprise is a return to the old values of popular music. Songs with hooks, melody, bridges, and riffs. Best described as dance rock, they are a new incarnation of feel good rock and roll. As soon as their album finishes, you want to hear it again. It's infectious. Their main influences include the Beatles, Doors, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Motown but they draw from all across the board.

The Mark
The Mark takes a fresh approach to a roots-rock sound. They often find themselves labeled as a jam band with influences ranging from elements as diverse as classic rock and roll, blues, jazz, folk and funk. Compromised of vocalist/guitarist Tom Appleton, lead guitarist Mark Capozio, drummer/percussionist Jeff Walter and bassist/vocalist Tim Komonchak, their genre-busting style makes them hard to classify.
