Concert: Johhny Hoy & The Bluefish
Concert: Johhny Hoy & The Bluefish

Johnny Hoy & the Bluefish bring their sometimes soulful, sometimes raunchy take on a great smorgasbord classics — Chicago Blues, Rockabilly, Rock’n’Roll, Country, Swing, good old R&B, and a bit of Cajun flavored off beat stuff — to Sanctuary in Maynard. This is a dance band from start to finish. Formed in 1991 and based in on Martha’s Vineyard, the band has released five CDs and performed around the world — as far as South Africa and Norway.
JOHNNY juggles a full life where he takes advantage of his many skills including stone masonry, fishing, antique dealing, farming. Somehow he manages to do all the gigs as well. He came to the Island in 1978, after soaking up Muddy Waters’ and Tom Waits’ shows as a teenager.
JEREMY BERLIN, the piano player has been with the band since the summer of ’93. He’s played duets with Bill Clinton and Carly Simon and toured the world with The Nina Simone Band. He’s not afraid of anything — and he plays it all. Jeremy’s right has plays the keyboard. His left hand plays the bass line, as the band has no bass player. (PS You’d never know.)
DELANIE PICKERING arrived on Martha’s Vineyard in her van at the age of 20, and for the first few months, didn’t tell anyone she played guitar. Now in her mid-20s, she plays with everyone and joined the band in 2018. A powerhouse blues player, she has the tone and authenticity of a seasoned performer and sings that way too.
CAMERON IGO is all of 19 years old with the youthful vibe and energy that comes with that! We found our new drummer at good moment — his parents were long-time fans, and he raps from behind the kit!
Doors open: 7pm • Performance: 8pm
Full bar. You’re welcome to bring snacks and/or take-out. Visit Discover Maynard for a list of Maynard’s many fine restaurants.
Tickets: $20/Advance, $25/door
Concert: Mike Payette’s Acoustic Roadshow
Mike Payette’s Acoustic Roadshow
Brought to you by: Fugitive Productions
Acoustic Roadshow plays acoustic versions of the harmony-rich songs many of us grew up with (The Beatles, CSNY, Steely Dan, The Beach Boys). This quartet of seasoned performers showcases both the vocal and instrumental talents of each of its members.
Mike Payette
With a musical career spanning decades, Mike is a well-respected member of the Boston musical community. His bass playing and strong vocal ability are always in demand. Acoustic Roadshow is the latest chapter in his musical story. In addition to his years of live performance experience, Michael has sung on numerous radio and TV ads in the Boston market. (Does “1-800-54-GIANT” or “We’re the One for You New England, New England Telephone” bring back any memories?)
Chris Leadbetter
An accomplished guitar and mandolin player, Chris is known for his voice, notably singing harmonies. For more than 20 years, he was a core member of a popular cover band, The Swinging Johnsons, playing clubs and private functions around New England. He has also been featured on recordings and performances with local songwriters Kat Chapman and Digney Fignus.
Alex MacDougall
If you have any experience with the Greater Boston music scene, you know who Alex is, and you know why he’s so busy. A gifted drummer, he always plays exactly what you want to hear, what’s right for the song. And his vocals — many know him for the “Sinatra Sundays” he was a part of at Lucky’s Lounge in Southie. But he’s no one trick pony. He can pretty much sing anything he wants to and just nail it. We’re psyched to have him bring “that thing he does” to the bandstand at Sanctuary.
Mike DiBari
Boston-based jazz blues guitarist Mike DiBari is inspired by B.B. King and Freddie King, among others. He began his studies at the Manhattan School of Music in New York, and in 1994, he earned a bachelor’s degree from Berklee, studying with Jon Damian, Jim Kelly, and Jon Finn. After forming the Mike DiBari Swingtet, he formed the Palomino Records label and released his debut album, Jumpin’ the Blues (1997). His next two albums, Rotary Ahead! (2003) and Music of the Spheres (2007), featured the Mike DiBari. Mike continues to perform live with many local and national blues and R&B artists including Mud Morganfield (Son of Muddy Waters) and Boston’s own Toni Lynn Washington.
Doors open at 7pm • Performance starts at 7:30pm
Full bar. You’re welcome to bring snacks and/or take-out. Visit Discover Maynard for a list of Maynard’s many fine restaurants.
