RYAN MONTBLEAU BAND
RYAN MONTBLEAU A relentless road warrior and masterful wordsmith, Ryan Montbleau has spent the better part of thirty years cultivating a devoted audience on the strength of his ecstatic live shows and exhilarating sonic versatility. He’s collaborated with artists as diverse as Trombone Shorty, Galactic, Steel Pulse, Tall Heights, Martin Sexton, Anders Osborne, and George Porter, Jr; shared bills with the likes of Tedeschi Trucks Band, Ani DiFranco, Todd Snider, The Wood Brothers, Rodrigo y Gabriela, and Mavis Staples; and racked up more than 150 million streams on Spotify alone. NPR’s Mountain Stage compared his “eloquent, soulful songwriting” to Bill Withers and James Taylor, while Relixcelebrated his “poetic Americana,” and The Boston Herald raved that “he’s made a career of confident, danceable positivity.” Montbleau’s freewheeling new album finds him exploring the full spectrum of his influences like never before, touching on folk, rock, funk, soul, hip-hop, and reggae, all with a preternatural ease that belies the intensely focused craftsmanship behind it. The songs are sprawling and unpredictable, grappling with a modern world perpetually teetering on the edge of chaos, but the performances are relentlessly optimistic, insisting on hope and joy in the face of it all. The result is Montbleau’s most vulnerable and cathartic work yet, an album that acknowledges the inevitability of doubt and pain while at the same time celebrating our limitless capacity for growth and love.

The self-described punkabilly band toured the world for the next 8 years. The Crowns often shared the stage with label mates Social Distortion & Reverend Horton Heat, as well as other artists like The Cramps, X, Tiger Army, Hank III, The Damned, The Specials, Dropkick Murphys, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, The Supersuckers, Rocket From The Crypt, The Misfits, and many more. Throughout their career, The Crowns released multiple singles, EPs, and 3 full-length albums. They have recorded music on various labels (Sub Pop, Time Bomb, and BMG to name a few) and have toured the world numerous times. They’ve endured lawsuits, broken bones, accidents, and band fights all in the name of blood, sweat & grease, and they haven’t regretted a second of any of it. The Crowns are playing their first headlining show in New England since 2001, and they’re bringing back their annual Providence Payback festival at the same time! The Payback fest was a yearly event that the band would host at Lupo’s and the Met as a thank you to, and a party for their fans. The fest ran from 1996-2001 and featured many national and local bands. Always a fun time, expect to see various genres of music and maybe some surprises!
