# Event Details - **Event Name**: Bart Budwig & Dan Blakeslee - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 24 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 pm – Thu, 24 Sep, 2026 at 10:30 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: Bart Budwig makes his Lizard Lounge debut Sept 24th with Dan Blakeslee!About this Event$15 adv/$20 doorDoors 7Bart Budwig is a son of Idaho, a cosmic country crooner, a rousing trumpet player, and cryin’-style soul singer. His music is made up of seemingly incongruous parts; thrum & strum country rhythms, jazz guitar melodies, R&B vocals. When Bart sings he draws out words into meditative mantras, whole note neologisms that keep you hanging on until his raspy voice trails off in a ragged edge. His forthcoming album, Another Burn On The AstroTurf (January 24, 2020, Fluff and Gravy Records) was recorded over five days by a seven-piece band inside the OK Theater. It’s a melancholy rhapsody that recalls the uncorked rock n’ roll spirituality of king mystic Van Morrison, the gloomy nostalgia of dark prince Nick Drake and the songcraft sans self-seriousness of 70s Muscle Shoals.Like those psycho-spiritual song crafters, his power comes from vocal idiosyncrasies – intonations of love, impermanence, hope, humor. The album opens with Budwig originals “Time For Two”, “First To Go”, and “Strong Coffee”– originally presented with just solo guitar (and crackling wood stove) on the album Sabai. The songs are recorded here live, full band, in medley, with hot electric guitar, woody double bass, and drums. The band electrifies and scourges the flesh of the songs into fully formed folk rock stunners.There is what the Romans called a “divine lustre” about Bart Budwig. His blonde hair and beard wrap around his collar,and frame his smile in a nimbus of gold. His radiance belies the loyalty he commands of an army of talent. He’d sooner tell you a joke than reveal to you he’s recorded dozens of albums and hundreds of songs in the last few years. Bart’s mastery of dramatic irony turns his work with complex emotional states of being into comforting, uplifting, relatable music.It’s this ability to combine tragedy and comedy in his humanist hallelujahs that makes Budwig a gravitational force and industry chimera. The studio general, the clown prince, the sensitive songwriter with a rugged voice. The soul singer with a cosmic country band. The creator of a folk universe drawing musicians from everywhere to the middle of nowhere. It’s this juxtaposition that makes Another Burn On The AstroTurfanother success for Bart Budwig, and a must listen for you. - Sean JewellBart BudwigWith a suitcase of songs, Maine folk troubadour Dan Blakeslee ventured into the subways of Boston in 1995 to practice his craft. He has been making music and art throughout New England ever since, leading him to tour the U.S. performing with Langhorne Slim, The Low Anthem, David Wax Museum, Lydia Loveless, The Lumineers, Old 97′s, Brown Bird, Josh Ritter, Death Vessel and Kimya Dawson among others. In 2015 his dream of playing Newport Folk Festival became a reality, where Bob Dylan went electric 50 years earlier. Blakeslee’s band The Calabash Club formed in 2008 and released their third album together “Christmasland Jubilee” a rollicking, jubilant Christmas album on December 1, 2020. Blakeslee is unafraid to bare his very soul on stage, emptying a loaded cache of emotion and passion onto the stage for all to witness, explore and devour.Dan Blakeslee - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/cambridge/bart-budwig-and-dan-blakeslee/100001995755466324 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, art, performances, festivals, fine-arts, comedy, trips-adventures - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: 21+ - Door Time: 7:00 PM - Duration: 2 hours 30 minutes - Location: Lizard Lounge - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 17.85, max: 17.85, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Cambridge - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: Lizard Lounge - **lat**: 42.38211839999999 - **long**: -71.1193369 - **full address**: Lizard Lounge, 1667 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Bart Budwig & Dan Blakeslee - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/9ae945f70383d0f9a1118977fb11b66c50af72ce88656444857b74bd651df89b-rimg-w1200-h675-dcc8b888-gmir.jpg?v=1787468463 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Bart Budwig & Dan Blakeslee being held? - **A:** Bart Budwig & Dan Blakeslee takes place on Thu, 24 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Thu, 24 Sep, 2026 at 10:30 pm at Lizard Lounge, 1667 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Bart Budwig & Dan Blakeslee? - **A:** Bart Budwig & Dan Blakeslee is organized by Lizard Lounge. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
