NotesAbout this event
It all started back in the 20th century. It was the 1980s and hair metal bands ruled. The radio was jam packed with synthesized pop. Emerging hip-hop was all the rage.
That's when three teenage buddies decided it was a good time to start an American, roots-rock, blues band. They loved Chuck Berry, Carl Perkins, Muddy Waters and B.B. King. Their classmates didn't know what to make of them but they boogied anyway.
Calling themselves Unfinished Business, Rob Babson, Dean Clegg and Troy R. Bennett started rocking high school dances, barbecues, band battles and all-night parties around their high school in Maine. After graduation they kept on playing but not together. Fate had other plans for them. For the next 30 years, each followed different paths through parallel lives of professional music-making.Now, after a three-decade hiatus, they're back together as the Unfinished Blues Band because they're not done yet.
They're still all about the basics: Swinging Drums, grooving bass lines and soulful guitar. Its all they need to make you dance, stomp and sing along.
Babson's hands fly like lightning over his shining guitar strings. He wrings pathos and fury from its electrified, wooden body. Clegg, is the beating heart of the band. He hammers out tight rhythms on the drums with his brain and all four limbs. Bennett's fingers bring the bottom all the way to the top. His rumble-tumble bass lines never stop trucking.
They all sing and you will, too. You wont be able to help yourself.
Together, they've got nearly a hundred years of combined performing experience. As old friends, they're finding renewed energy in the music they make together. The spark is still alive and burning brighter than ever.
Tickets are $18.00 in advance and $20.00 at the door.

NotesMulligan Stew is a three-piece band built for maximum boil-over. Hunter Walkup is the guitar-slinging, singing bag of bones from Texas. Alden Bertinet, the Goose, holds down the low end on bass, golden hair flowing freely. And on drums is ArchBishop Von Stewgler (Ethan Parker), the one-take wonder, keeping the chaos locked in.
AZV (a-zed-five) is a five-piece alt-rock band from Bangor, Maine, fronted by Ethan Parker, with Colby Leavitt on bass, Ethan O’Brien on rhythm guitar, Andrew Gallogly on drums, and Judah Lemke on keyboards. Drawing from the alternative sounds of the ’90s and the progressive influences of the ’70s, AZV blends those roots with a modern edge all their own.
Formed in September 2024, AZV has completed recording their debut album and is currently at work on their second. The band has honed its sound at Husson University and continues its mission to deliver music that is both crushing and beautiful—to the masses.
