CAPTAIN JACK & THE STRANGERS – A TRIBUTE TO BILLY JOEL
Captain Jack & The Strangers, comprised of six individuals hailing from Gloucester, MA (45 min north of Boston) with over 30 years experience in music and performance. The band is fronted by 25 year old piano phenom, Jack Favazza, who brings a youthful exuberance to this classic American songbook. This group plays a wide catalogue of music from America’s own Piano Man, Billy Joel, spanning his entire musical career from the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s. Playing both well known hits, alongside of b-side fan favorites, there are surely songs to appease any audience member. With a long standing passion for the music of Billy Joel, the band formed in late 2022, after founding members had seen a performance of Billy at the legendary Fenway Park in Boston, MA during the summer of that same year. That performance solidified the decision to perform Billy Joel’s music to as many people as possible. Gloucester has a long history of talented artists, and Captain Jack & The Strangers is no different. A local “supergroup” of musicians from well known acts such as Groove Therapy, The Spynz, Mystery Meat, and the Neon 90’s have formed this group to bring you the high energy, soft somber moments, and everything in between that Billy Joel is so well known for. Listening to any song at a show will surely invoke your favorite memories and emotions when you hear a specific Billy Joel song done in a way that only Captain Jack & The Strangers can do.

LOOKS THAT KILL (Motley Crue Tribute) & THE WICKED (Ozzy Tribute)
LOS SOUPERMEN – A Texmex Tribute to Doug Sahm & The Texas Tornados
Inspired by the lilting mariachi tones of a couple Ward Hayden & the Outliers nee Girls, Guns and Glory originals, this tribute to Doug Sahm and the Texas Tornados and a few other outlaws reminds of how derivative Texmex music was of the british invasion beat. Coming as contemporaries of the Beatles, Sir Douglas and the Quintet were reputedly the hazy vision of popular music seen through several cases of MD 20-20 in a Texas motel room by producer Heuy Meaux and quickly hit the charts in 1966 with She’s About a Mover amidst the parallel success of the one-hit texmex wonder 96 Tears. The sound came to rest in San Antonio .So now the answer to the question: “Anybody Going to San Antone” is “Everybody’s Going”. We’ll be filling the Met with the San Antonio sound and along with the rhythms than animated the 60s there is plenty of Texas to go round with the outlaw country sounds of Hank, Merle, Willie blended in. Featuring the incomparable vocals of Ward Hayden, and a krewe of the most talented contemporary Boston outlaws with Rory Macleod on bass who arranged this project and himself played behind Doug Sahm in Austin when that ‘Cosmic Cowboy’ hopped on stage with virtually every band. With homage to San Antonio’s Los Super Seven, the original ad hoc keepers of the Sahm sound, we swerved in our naming convention Los Soupermen, to announce the super group character of this seasonal outing and to embrace the culinary distinction of our first locus in Westerly, RI, soupy sausage!
