Chris Morrill
Now here's something you don't see every day: Chris returned, this time with his Strat—for a complete, letter-perfect rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody".
Frank Ruzzano
Always good to have Frank come by. His original songs are moments of quiet beauty.
Greg
If Greg can't make you laugh, nobody can. At least, I know I can't.
Don Hammontree
The Fall River troubadour came up north again to rock out for a while.
Brian Mahoney
When he's in the mood, Brian will bust it out.
Jesse Fanuele
Jesse's been coming by fairly regularly. Look for more weekend appearances of her duo, Too Stupid to Blink.
Justin Lally
Some of the most interesting original music to pass through here—and definitely one of the coolest hats.
Noel Vickery
Melodic songwriting and great singing. What's not to like?

Chris Morrill
First time here for Chris. He's got a lot of energy and is a great singer.
Jim Keady
Always a treat to hear Jim: jazzy guitar chops and killer vocals.
Jillian James
Jillian's been by a few times now, and it's always a pleasure to hear her.
Bill Motti
First time here for Bill—great songs.
Patrick Funk
Yes, that's his name, and he's a solid pro entertainer (I only let solid pro entertainers use my guitar).
Jesse Fanuele
Unstoppable vocals as usual.
Brian Fay
Just plain unstoppable.
James Norton
James' debut performance on the big Paddy's stage included an original song called "Turtle Frisbee." I'd go into more detail, but I'm afraid of PETA.
Mike Dardis
Mike's a repeat open-micer here, and he always serves up a nice set.

Frank Ruzzano
More great tunes from Frank.
Jillian James
Keep on coming, Jillian!
Peter Railly
The debut of Peter—what a great performer.
Eddie Bastos
"Duda" plays at a local Brazilian place. He does a great mix of Brazilian (chords to die for) and American.
