Artist Spotlight

For fans of: Noah Kahan, The Lumineers, Mt. Joy
Genre: Americana / folk-rock
Jake Swamp and the Pine is an Americana band born out of Boston, led by singer, songwriter, and guitarist Drew Zieff. Their songs range from powerful acoustic anthems to knee-slapping hoedowns to slow, somber waltzes, drawing on folk, bluegrass, and jam-band traditions. Multiple-time Boston Music Award nominees, they have shared the stage with artists like Alanis Morissette, Trampled by Turtles, The Wood Brothers, and Ziggy Marley, building a devoted fan community they call “The Pine.”

Artist Spotlight
Nate Perry and Ragged Company
Set time: 7:30 PM
For fans of: Jason Isbell, Drive-By Truckers, Tom Petty
Genre: Americana / roots-rock
A Boston-based group that finds its inspiration from the rootsier end of the American music spectrum, lining their work with acoustic guitars and bluesy riffs that can feel anthemic and ready for a big crowd. Fronted by Nate Perry, who formed the band after leaving the Army and returning to Boston, the group has been lighting up the local scene with guitar-driven Americana-rock. Their latest release, Till the Well Runs Dry, leans harder into alt-rock energy without losing its Americana core. Performed at Boston Calling in 2025.
