Great show. TBR never disappoints. MakeWar and borderlines packed a punch as well. Keep coming back to Portland and we’ll keep showing up
High energy through the whole show, multiple face melting solo's, incredibly fun band, would see again and again and again. They clearly enjoy playing together.
The band was fantastic! They played all of their older popular songs as well as their newer ones. It’s bittersweet knowing that this was their last concert in Maine.
Always great music when AJ Lee and Blue Summit come to town. Very talented and interactive with the crowd. Portland House of Music is small venue that attracts some "big" entertainment.
Trousdale at the Portland House Music was incredible and so good! Harmonies were on fire and they were all around tight and had an excellent stage presence! Definitely a must see again and again! They will get more popular!
Loved it!! AJ Lee & Blue Summit are a must see if they are anywhere in your vicinity. Buy the ticket. I can't wait to see them again.
The new bluegrass was on full display, AJ Lee and her talented fellow musicians (Blue Summit) played a perfect mix of old songs and a few new ones from their upcoming album. The crowd was totally immersed in their high energy performance. I attended the Wednesday night show in Cambridge and the Portland show far exceeded my expectations and the fiddle player felt the same and he let the crowd know it at the end of the night. I'm excited for the new album having heard three of the songs and they're superb. I believe they are ready for the next level of success. If you get a chance go see them live, make the effort I guarantee you will be rewarded with perfection!
Loved this intimate venue! The Dave Matthews Tribute Band is top notch…legit amazing. They always have a great Setlist, and they absolutely nail every DMB song. If your a Dave fan, you won’t be disappointed!
Incredible talent. Really great, cosmic magical vibes. I will definitely go see him anytime he plays in Maine. Thanks again

And thanks for the selfie and signing my poster!
Absolutely amazing. They know how to put on a show, authentic rock sound that’s best in person and have some killer covers they add into the mix. Highly suggest catching a show
Always a great live band, I've seen them more than 20 times and started traveling to see them out of state over the years , especially if they don't play in our area enough!
Weakened Friends might be my favorite band of all time. They bring an incredible energy to EVERY show I’ve ever seen. I thinks it’s rare to find a bank that rocks as hard as them, but also in between sets and songs keeps the audience equally as engaged with their stories and messages. Will be seeing them every chance I get!
Perfection. I'm a musician and music junkie well into my 50s and I absolutely love hearing bands this fresh, talented and honest. And seeing Portlands own Annie Hoffman on bass was so amazing. The whole band killed it.
First, I've never been to Portland House of Music til last night. What a great venue! My only complaint was that it was so hot inside! But they had plenty of free water and left the doors open. Next time I'll dress accordingly 🙂
Next, I've seen The Adam Ezra Group many times in many settings. And last night's show was absolutely one of the best! The crowd was filled with people seeing them for the first time and, until Adam asked, I never would have known. Everyone brought so much energy and the band fed off that and blew the roof off the place! Every song was performed with such passion and fun! These guys do not disappoint! Poche's badass funk during Life of a Thief, Alex's StrongFOOT beats led the way for All Right Today, and Corinna on the fiddle for Steal Your Daughter and Devil Came Up To Boston were all spot on. Adam did a solo of Come Together that was so nasty and sexy ....and was so gentle and Sweet talking about his baby daughter before performing Pocket Full of Seashells. And then Supergirl joined them on stage for I'm Gone and just knocked everyone on their ass with her powers voice!! The night ended with the band unplugged in the middle of everyone singing their original song Ease It Down Right and then having everyone join in for a cover of Whitney Houston's Dance With Somebody. By far one of the best live AEG performances I've been to!
And I can't forget to mention their opener. Daniella Cotton is a tiny little thing with a Huge voice to match her amazing personality! If Prince were still alive they'd have been a perfect match....musically and vocally! She introduced herself after the first song I immediately checked her out! You should too!
Sierra is a gifted singer/musician who never fails to dazzle on the mandolin. Each of her band mates were also excellent.
The last time I was at PHOM for Sarah Jarocz, there were chairs on the floor and tables/chairs on the upper level - great and comfortable set-up. Unfortunately , there have been removed so its a largely standing crowd - a few chairs and places to sit up to and on the wall at the floor. Many patrons were older and I'm sure would have appreciated more seating options.
Is PHOM committed to becoming a largely standing room only venue?
Fantastic show. Had heard a lot about Zach but had never seen him...he can shred and has perfected that Jerry tone. Fun to see him and his band play a set from a Grateful Dead concert that I had attended right up the street and the Civic Center on 9/17/82..41 years ago..yikes!
Golden Oak was really fabulous! They brought energy, gorgeous harmonies and tight dynamics. They are funny, congenial, self-effacing and insightful. They develop a relationship with their audience that is immediately both warm and deep.
Every time I see this band I am blown away- they get better and better. Can’t wait for the next ep! They really are a super homegrown Maine band, and I love their style and their message.
Kat Wright was great, too!.
Thanks, PHOM!!
I missed Bad Combo, but I arrived in time for Five of the eyes and Seepeoples, great night of music and amazing local talent ♥️
These boys are SO FUCKING DOPE! Saw them twice on the Homieverse tour and did not disappoint at either show! Love y'all, Lespecial! Can't wait to dance with you dudes again!
they all just have some of the best stage presence i’ve ever seen and gave me the most intimate concert experience i’ve ever had so thank you guys!
