We were missing our Friday night summer music, so we've decided to bring it back for winter in the cafe! 4:30-6:30pm on Fridays. Order pizza, get a drink, and chill with friends for Pizza Night!
Funky New England-formed fusion rock band The Womps is a group that’s unique in its innovations, familiar in its rock n’ roll roots, and passionate improvisers.
Divide and Conquer has called them a band with “craftsmanship, filled with love and good ole-fashioned elbow grease.” The Womps takes listeners on an eclectic journey of improvisation and colorful songwriting, reinventing the music at every performance.
Leaders of The Womps Jason Lilly (drums, guitar, and vocals) and Kailey Zercher (violin and vocals) are performers who inspire performers of all ages to become, like themselves, “their own creators, no matter what others tell them is or isn’t possible.”
The Womps has appeared at the Harry Brown’s Farm for the Ganja Grail Festival, Freeport Fall Fest, Marshfield Fair, Jamaica Plains Porchfest, and StART on The Street in (Worcester, MA) festivals, among others, and at many famous music venues, including The Lizard Lounge in Boston and Nietzsche’s in Buffalo. They have also played in legendary nightspots such as Ghenghis Cohen in LA, and The Stone Church in New Hampshire. They were also artists in residence at Fury’s Publick House, and Blue in Portland, Maine.
The Womps has performed or collaborated with Danny Bedrosian and Secret Army (members of George Clinton's Parliament-Funkadelic), Ben Taylor, John Forte, Tyler Adams (The Jauntee), The Rumpke Mountain Boys, Hawthorne Heights, Pitti Hecht, and Stu Kimball.
Their most recent releases include live studio album, Mad Science, which exemplifies the breadth of flow through improvisation and songwriting, and their accompanying live video sessions recorded at Chillhouse Studios in Charleston, MA.
