Talent

Matt Whipple and Liz Bettencourt

Plymouth's Matt Whipple teamed up with Liz Bettencourt for three songs that turned into countless songs. The folks at Paddy's wouldn't let them stop.

Talent

Brian Fay

Full Moon Revue's Brian Fay stormed in and proceeded to own the joint. Nobody could resist his performing prowess, least of all Chuck Whelan, who leapt up to join Brian on an a cappella Irish ballad.

Talent

Scott Bowser

Everyone knows him as Scotty, but his formal name is Scott Bowser. Folks at the Holy Ground enjoy his Wednesday acoustic jam. Scott is a phenomenal guitarist and singer, and a heck of a nice guy to boot.

Talent

Brian Mahoney

For the first time ever, Brian graced us with his tunes. He's the proud owner of a brand-new Breedlove guitar, and couldn't restrain himself any longer.

Talent

Justin Lally

Justin treated us to more mood pieces and space-age blues.

Talent

Noel Vickery

Retro Brit-pop? I don't know—I think it's too good to be labeled.

Talent

Brendan Ahern

Brendan was so eager to come back again that he got a baby-sitter.

Talent

Chuck Whelan with Al
