NYS Music Jam For Tots: Quantum Cosmic & Rob Beaulieu Band

Doors: 7:00pm
Show: 8:00pm
Ages: 21+
Admission: A new, unwrapped toy or a $15 ticket

With the holiday season upon us, we are teaming up with NYS Music for a special Jam For Tots concert featuring Quantum Cosmic and Rob Beaulieu Band. Please join us and help collect toys for someone who could use a little extra help this holiday season. If you don’t have time to pick up a toy, ticket revenue will be used to purchase additional toys.

Quantum Cosmic is not only a band but a musical journey through the ether, and everyone is invited. The group is fronted by groove specialist Captain Ted Grey of Raisinhead and guitarist extraordinaire Master Chief Michael Lashomb of Annie in the Water, along with whatever musical explorers join the adventure. For their Putnam Place performance, the lineup will be Sam Doyle (Raisinhead) on drums, James Woods (The Switch) on bass guitar, and Matt Richards (Annie in the Water) on keys. The band delivers an energetic, highly improvised performance, with each member able to express their musical abilities and follow the music into celestial territory. The collective energy between the band and the crowd makes each performance a result of the collaborative energy in the room.

Rob Beaulieu Band is a deep dive into Americana, with a slightly more blues- and soul-focused take than you’ll find with Raisinhead. Rob explores an improvised approach to rock, folk, blues, R&B, and soul, playing everything from gospel tunes to Lou Reed and whatever lies in between. Reinterpreting many of his own songs, the experience will leave you in a soulful mood. The show is slightly akin to a Jerry Garcia Band show with a more rock edge. Never the same show, never the same approach, the band includes Tony Perrino on organ. Tony toured with ex-Allman Brothers Band guitarist Dan Toller for 10 years and solidifies the band’s southern blues and soul elements. If you want to come and be rocked, dance some, cry some, laugh and smile a lot, this is for you.
