Agachiko hits Davis Square: The Rosebud, Thursday, April 19
Two sets at 9 & 10:30; $5 cover
Vocalist
Gabrielle Agachiko and band will be back in action with the material
they recently recorded at Bluetone Studios, and a brand new original.
Come on down to the Rosebud in Davis Square (behind the venerable Rosebud Diner) for Agachiko's debut at the "Third Thursdays" series.
"When the
band is cooking — when, say, Getchell and Gershon take turns letting
loose Coltrane-like cries on one of Agachiko's most soul-baring tunes,
"Unlovable" — the effect might remind you a bit of Nina Simone, but also
of Abbey Lincoln's work with her then-husband, Max Roach." –Jon
Garelick, Boston Phoenix

Gabrielle Agachiko
and her band...
This seven piece ensemble just keeps
getting better. E/O leader Russ Gershon writes a lot of the
arrangements; the band is made of up old friends who love playing
together, and Gabrielle is...
"Angry,
tender, sassy, soulful, womanly, girlish, light, heavy, sorrowful,
dignified, wounded to name just a few.... It takes a lot of courage to
go to all of those places." –Pam DeColo, opera singer, therapist
Scott Getchell - trumpet
Ken Field - flute
Russ Gershon - tenor sax
Sam Davis - guitar
Blake Newman - bass
Phil Neighbors - drums
