The Party Band Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

P-A-R-T-Why? Because it’s the people's music! Think of the term musical performance: what comes to mind? A stage? A light show? Sold out tickets? In the past it was common to walk down the street and hear live music spilling out of every doorway, sidewalk, and street corner you passed. Everyday people loved nothing more than making music while friends and strangers listened and enjoyed. There was no line between musicians and spectators; there was a community. As time flew forward, society lost this everyday immersion of music and replaced it with a barricade, separating the music makers and the audience. In early 2013, a few students from the University of Massachusetts Lowell took a note from Ronald Reagan and decided to "Tear Down This Wall!" Armed with nothing but a few horns, three songs, and a common goal, we hit the streets and hit them hard. Making every sidewalk a stage, every patch of grass a classroom, and every listener an opportunity, the Party Band continues to spread the idea that live music should be accessible to everyone in everyday life. Fueled by the fires of conviction, we've expanded in size and repertoire to 20 members and 40+ charts. Open rehearsals encourage players of all skill levels and dedication to attend and join our cause, none are turned away. The band favors the use of original songs prompting our members to express themselves through creative composition, arrangement, and improvisation. Specializing in spontaneous outdoor music making, the Party Band loves nothing more than setting up shop where people least expect it. We encourage active audience participation and the desegregation of audience and band, more times than not having the crowed intertwined in the raw, bluesy madness. What is The Party Band? Homegrown, unadulterated, unplugged FUN. Our goal is to bring people together through the joys of quality music in a way that is accessible to everyone.
