VenueAuburn Lobster Festival
AddressAuburn, ME
NotesThe Interstate Kings are originally from Maine and currently based in Nashville, TN. Hard working and visionary from the start, they've built their music into a nation-spanning tour de force, performing high energy, entertaining live shows in over 15 states and counting.
The power trio’s tight-knit instrumentation is honed by years of performing across the USA, and their signature bar-rock swagger and groove is infused with elements of Piedmont and Texas Blues, 70s singer-songwriter, and Outlaw Country. Calling to mind roots-rock mainstays such as Tom Petty, Sturgill Simpson, and CCR, The Interstate Kings really know how to deliver. This is David Young & the Interstate Kings' second appearance at the Auburn Lobster Festival.

NotesA special afternoon with the iconic jazz clarinetist, Brad Terry and the extraordinary jazz guitarist, Peter Herman.
Brad Terry is a jazz legend and Maine treasure. Brad's musical journey started more than 70 years ago when legendary band leader "King of Swing" Benny Goodman told his mother to buy Brad a clarinet. "I got three free lessons when I bought the instrument and almost immediately, I started playing this wonderful music called jazz. Undiagnosed ADD forced me to learn everything by ear; reading music was not an option. (Later I had three unproductive lessons with Benny )"
It was raw luck that early on Brad started playing with Steve Swallow, Sam Brown & Wayne Wright; did concerts with Chuck Wayne & Joe Puma; sat in at the Celebrity Club and played multiple gigs with Buddy Tate & Buck Clayton.
Later Brad sat in with Eddie Thompson and Major Holly and played for years with Eddie Thompson, even recording a CD with him.
Brad won the Hennessy Cognac Jazz search in NYC with John Basile and recorded a whistling track with Roger Kellaway and Red Mitchell.
Dizzy Gillespie visited for a week doing school programs and invited Brad to New York to play Cuban music with him at The Village Gate.
Brad enjoyed a 25 year partnership with Joachim Mencel in Poland including lots of concerts and school programs and recording 3 CDs. (23 trips to Poland)
While in Poland Brad recorded 2 CDs, 1 Gershwin and 1 Ellington, with Jarek Smietana.
Brad's album with guitar legend and Maine native Lenny Breau, “Livingroom Tapes”, received 4 stars from Leonard Feather.
