Kangaralien is very excited to announce the dates for all of our Holiday shows for November and December!

If you are looking for a great stocking stuffer or would like some new takes on Christmas music, Kangaralien has the album for you! We have eight holiday classics, an original, and a new take on the poem, “Twas the Night Before Christmas” read by Steve. 20% of the net profit from all sales from the Basement Tapes Records site will be used to buy toys for the United States Marines’ Toys for Tots program. Anyone that buys 5 or more copies of the Christmas album will be entered to win a Holiday House Concert. To order, click here!If you would like a chance to enter the raffle for the free concert, order 5 copies here at a discount!
Please note that this album WILL NOT be available for digital download. In order to donate as much to Toys for Tots as possible, we have taken iTunes and similar digital services out of the loop. This not only helps us donate more to Toys for Tots, but it allows you, the listener, to enjoy the album they way it is meant to be heard.
Kangaralien is very exited to be performing with District 97 and John Wetton at the Regent Theater in Arlington on Friday, October 11th! If you would like to order tickets in advance, get them here!
I have just uploaded a small sampling of photos taken by Kathy Joyce from the Hard Rock Cafe Student Show on June 30th, 2013. Click here to check them out!
On Friday, August 23rd and Saturday, August 24th (both at 1pm) I will bring a collection of instruments, from 4 and 5 string basses, to 6, 7, and 8 string guitars to the library in Groveland. There will even be a guitar that tunes itself! I will talk about the difference between the instruments and show the different sounds each guitar, amp, and pedal create. This will be a hands-on event, so feel free to bring your own guitar and plug in! This program is free and open to the public.
Please join my guitar studio students on June 30th at the Hard Rock Cafe for an afternoon of music! The show will be a fundraiser for Ernie Boch Jr.’s Music Drives Us Charity. The show starts around 1pm and the suggested donation is $10. Here is the address: 22-24 Clinton St Boston, MA 02109
I am very excited that my students will be performing a Music Drives Us Fundraiser Show at the Hard Rock Cafe on June 30th! Below are answers to some of the questions I have received regarding the show:
- Q: What time should students arrive and what time does the show start? A: I need to have everyone at the Hard Rock no later than noon. I hope to start the show around 12:45pm.
-Q: Where should I park? A: I believe street parking is free in Boston on Sundays, but just in case, visit the 75 State Street garage. Here are walking directions:Click for the State St. Parking Garage. Parking is $14 on weekends, and the Hard Rock will validate for a $3 discount.
-Q: Can we eat during the show? Yes! The Hard Rock will have tables setup for families to enjoy food while watching the show!
-Q: Can I invite friends and how much is admission? A: Please, invite everyone you can! All of the proceeds from the show are going directly to Music Drives Us. We are asking a suggested donation of $10/person.
- Q: How long will the show be? A: I am estimating that the show will be about 2 1/2 hours long. Please try to stay and watch all of the groups perform!
Please remember that this is a family event. I hope to make this an annual event, and I want both The Hard Rock Cafe and Music Drives Us to be excited about having another show.
