physical impacts of the climate crisis. The band is rounded out by up-right bassist Mike
Knowles and Drummer Jackson Cromwell.

The Rock and Roll Playhouse, a family concert series hosted at historic music venues across the country, allows kids to “move, play and sing while listening to works from the classic-rock canon” (NY Times). Performing songs created by the most iconic musicians in rock history, The Rock and Roll Playhouse band offers its core audience of families with children age ten and under games, movement, stories and an opportunity to rock out in an effort to educate children and explore their creativity. The Rock and Roll Playhouse is an early and often first introduction to a child’s lifelong journey with live music and rock and roll. This children’s concert is not associated with or endorsed by the artist. See you at the show!
This concert for kids and families shares the music of the artist named above with a new generation of music lovers, but is not associated with or endorsed by the artist. All children must be accompanied by a parent or adult caregiver.
The Rock and Roll Playhouse knows that little ears are sensitive, so we turn down the volume at our shows. However, all kids experience music differently and you may find that your child is more comfortable wearing hearing protection earmuffs, such as Baby Banz, which are available for purchase here.

Making some serious noise in the Northeast music scene, Rigometrics provides an original, raw high-energy rock n’ roll sound that’s transformative and undeniably unique. Their signature blend of multiple genres seamlessly unites classic rock with a contemporary edge, comprised of explosive guitar solos by Josef Berger effortlessly shredding through intricate melodies; Derek Haney providing a foundation through pulsating beats on the drums, and Keenan Hendricks hitting an extraordinary vocal range with hammering piano skills. Together, the three-piece band delivers performances that leave diverse audiences in awe and garner a dedicated fan base.
Having only formed in 2021, the three-piece band has already embarked on six tours down the East Coast, sold out 300-capacity venues, and headlined fifteen major shows in Maine, all while working independently to gain traction and showcase their unique sound across the Northeast. Their Debut album “Rig N’ Roll” was Released in September 2022 followed by single, “Share The Fortune”. Those early releases created a buzz for their newest EP, “No Time to Waste”, which was released in July 2023, and their latest live album “Live in Maine” released Feb 2nd. These projects are being shared through constant energetic live performances and an undeniable stage presence throughout the Northeast via a renovated school bus that the Rigometrics calls home when on the road.
Since their inception in early 2018, Bermuda Search Party (formerly known as The Q-Tip Bandits) have emerged into the Boston music scene as an energetic and vibrant act that continues to touch audience’s hearts while getting them up on their feet. Their smooth yet powerful sound is backed by the raw energy of rock and the coolness and colors of R&B and funk — with palpable grooves coated with savory, soul-inspired riffs, anthemic horns and meaningful lyrics. In September 2023, the band returned to the studio to record their sophomore LP with Eric Palmquist, known for his work with half•alive, Tate McRae, and Bad Suns. With singles coming in 2024, the record is a departure from the band’s previous work, putting a pop spin on their signature horn-driven indie rock sound.
