Countdown to Cheverly Day: Discovering New Music

We only have 11 days until we get to celebrate Cheverly Day! During this countdown, we've celebrated a lot of things...today we celebrate the magic of disovering new music!

Throughout its' history, Cheverly Day has brought many wonderful musical artists to the stage -- from small local garage bands to major international stars. We've enjoyed discovering new acts during the years -- well, new to us anyway. This year, David Thorpe has outdone himself with new salsa, blues, and reggae set to hit the stage. Over the next three days, we'll be celebrating three new bands to check out on Cheverly Day...make sure to welcome them all! Get the full lineup on our website.

Today, we introduce Moonshine Society.


Moonshine Society delivers roots rock, blues, and old school R&B in a style guaranteed to keep audiences dancing, heads nodding, and the drinks flowing.  Often compared to Susan Tedeschi, Bonnie Raitt, and Alabama Shakes, this is a powerful band of musicians from around the world. The band has made their way around the world, including venues throughout the US, Cuba, and China, landing them titles such as #1 Blues/Jazz Band in Shanghai" in TimeOut Magazine, "Top Don't Miss Show" from Delta Airlines Sky Magazine, and more.  In 2012, three members were inducted in to the Blues Hall of Fame.

Blues enthusiasts, college kids, burlesque lovers, and even biker bar regulars come together on the dance floors of a Moonshine Society show.  "They're absolutely fantastic and innovative.  It's the first blues act I've seen in New England that could be described as refreshing."- Satch Romano of the Mighty Housebreakers.
