Lead Guitar & Vocals, Erik Laisi on Drums, Toby Halsey on Rhythm Guitar and

back up vocals and, Mike LaChance on Bass - they have played Mystic Blues

Festival, Mystic Eats, the Air & Sea Celebration and play often at The Daniel

Packer Inne.

The second band is The Hoolios; they are a diverse group morphing from

solo singer-songwriter Jim Carpenter to an acoustic quartet and six-piece

rock/dance band depending upon the venue. The Hoolios have garnered an

excellent reputation for their Americana/Rock/Latin and Zydeco grooves,

featuring three lead vocalists, accordion, mandolin, washboard and organ.

Green Tea closes out the evening. Green Tea is Toby Kniffin on Guitar and

Vocals, Jamie Conroy on Guitar, Amie Coffey on Vocals, Michael Chicoria

on Keys, Jay Hartley on Drums, Marty Moroney on Bass

and Gino Maiorano on Percussion. Green Tea was formed

in 2001 when members of Third Stone & Beggars Bash got

together to make some music, jam and share ideas.

Over 15 years later, Green Tea is going strong with a wealth

of original material, four CDs and contagious momentum.

Music influencing the sound of Green Tea ranges

from the melody and magic of Garcia/Hunter, to the

driving rock n roll and melody work of the Allman

Brothers. Mix that with a Dylanesque writing approach that

focuses on the lost art of “the song” and you get Green Tea.

Sails Up 4 Cancer is dedicated to supporting cancer care, education, prevention and research. All proceeds from tonight’s show - post production - go to our cause. For further information, please visit: www.su4c.org.
