Think local, act local! We’re excited for a few homegrown farm-related shows this weekend. Friday night 7/31, we’re at Huntsbrook Farm in Waterford kicking off this summer’s “Dinners at the Farm” event series there, a scrumptious farm-to-table partnership with Chester, CT’s River Tavern. That’s a sold-out affair, we believe (there’s always next summer!) but you can also catch us Saturday, Aug. 1 at 4pm on Parade Plaza in New London, performing at New London’s First Saturday Market, which features a host of local vendors and lots of other excitement downtown. Some other great acts (and friends of ours) performing as well… The (free) music runs from 3-7pm. See you out there!

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.

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…

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.

Music in the Meadow returns Friday, May 29 at the Connecticut College Arboretum! Joining us this year are the Bards of Gungywamp and Carlyle. Still just $10!!! BYOP… see you in the meadow! More info.

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.

The Rivergods return to Nightingale’s Cafe in Old Lyme, CT Saturday, Mar. 28 for an intimate acoustic show starting at 7 pm. Tickets are $10 and this is a small room that fills up quickly, so getting tickets in advance is highly suggested!

Happy New Year! The Rivergods return Friday, Jan. 23 at the Steak Loft in Mystic, CT, one of our favorite listening rooms. Great food, great atmosphere, no cover! Come early to get a table in the bar.

Giving a hoot is more important than ever. We’ll be back at the Telegraph Autonomous Zone Friday, Dec. 12 with some other great artists. All proceeds to benefit the New London Community Meal Center.

Next up for the band… we’ll be at Olde Mistick Village for their 4th Annual Apple Festival on Saturday, Oct. 18 on the Garden Specialty Stage from 3-6pm. Lots of great music all weekend long… check out the full schedule here!
