NL Folk Festival Sat. July 11!

The Rivergods are proud to be a part of the 1st annual New London Folk Festival, happening July 11 at the beautiful Hygienic Art Park in New London, CT. This all-day festival will feature 15 acts on two stages, and is now FREE thanks to the fine folks at Celebrate New London, who are organizing city-wide events on July 11 to coincide with the annual fireworks yearly extravaganza sponsored by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation. We’re performing on the band stage at 6:30, but there is serious talent all day, so you’ll want to stick around. Beer garden atmosphere, food, shade… plus fireworks… and it’s FREE! What could be better? More info here.

Into the Mystic Friday, June 12!

We’re back at one of our favorite listening rooms this Friday, June 12! We’re doing several “acousticana” sets starting at 7pm… mostly originals, maybe a choice influential cover or two. Come hum along… great food, great atmosphere, no cover! Woot. See you there…

We’re Passing the Guitar this Sat. Night!

Join us (and many of our friends/fellow musicians) for an unforgettable night of music, community, and impact in honor of 20 years of the New London Homeless Hospitality Center this Saturday, June 6 at the Hygienic Art Park, starting at 6pm.

Featuring some of the area’s best musicians and neighbors giving their time and talent to raise critical funds, this special event celebrates two decades of community care and helps continue the work of ensuring that no one in our region is left outside. Each artist plays one song and “passes the guitar” to the next act.

Come for the music, stay for the mission, and be part of what 20 years of hospitality looks like in action. It’s always a fun and super memorable evening!

Tickets ($20 donation) will be available at the door, or click here to donate in advance.

Songs of Love & Resistance – Friday, Apr. 17

Four seasoned CT-based songwriters (and mutual admirers of each other’s work) are coming together to present their most recent topical songs in a show of hope and solidarity. Will it be a one-off performance or an ongoing affair? Time will tell… Either way, join us for this not-to-miss inaugural gathering at Best Video! Seating is limited… more info here.
