# Event Details - **Event Name**: Valentine's Day with The James Montgomery Band - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 14 Feb, 2026 at 08:00 pm - **Event Description**: 2-14-2026 Bring your special someone to this very special Valentine's Day show with James Montgomery & the band. Over the years, The James Montgomery Band has come to be known as the best of it's kind in the country; the band that always "brings it on home." Growing up in Detroit, James learned first-hand from the masters - James Cotton, John Lee Hooker and Jr. Wells - at the legendary "Chessmate." And he's carried on in that tradition and continues to be a vital presence in Blues as one of the most dynamic performers on the scene. In 1970, while attending Boston Univrsity, Montgomery formed the James Montgomery Band. His inimitable (oh yeah, he majored in English) harmonica playing combined with his incredibly energetic live shows led to the band's quick ascension on the New England music scene. Within two years, the James Montgomery band was among the hottest acts in Boston along with J. Geils and Aerosmith, and they were quickly signed to a multi-album deal with Capricorn Records. Since that time, James has recorded six albums. His first, "First Time Out" has been remastered and re-released by MRG/Capricorn. Others include "James Montgomery Band" on Island Records which was number nine on Billboard's national playlist, "Duck Fever" with members of the David Letterman Band, "Live Trax," with the Uptown Horns (the Rolling Stones' horn section), and his release on Tone-Cool, "The Oven Is On." Montgomery has toured with many major artists, including Aerosmith, Bonnie Raitt, Bruce Springsteen, the Allman Brothers, Steve Miller and many others. He has jammed on stage with B.B.King, Buddy Guy, John Lee Hooker, Jr. Wells, James Cotton, Charlie Daniels, Greg Allman, Laverne Baker, Patti LaBelle, and Peter Wolf among others, including an impromptu session with Mick Jagger at New York's "Trax". The James Montgomery's band has been a springboard for many musicians. Members of his band have included Billy Squire, Wayne Kramer (MC-5), Jeff Golub (Rod Stewart), Jim McCarty (Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels), Nunzio Signore (Bo Diddley), Jeff Pevar (Ray Charles Orchestra, Crosby, Stills & Nash), Bobby Chouinard (drummer with Ted Nugent, Squire and Robert Gordon), Jeff Levine (Joe Cocker), Aerosmith's Tom Gambel, and many others. Peter Wolf calls him "the John Mayall of New England." The long-time James Montgomery Band is: James Montgomery: vocals & harmonica; David Hull: Bass; George McCann: Guitar; Marty Richards: Drums. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/shirley/valentines-day-with-the-james-montgomery-band/200029502510722 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, valentines-day, performances, art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 47 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Shirley - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: 215 GREAT ROAD, Shirley, MA, United States, Massachusetts 01464 - **lat**: 42.58445 - **long**: -71.64635 - **full address**: 215 GREAT ROAD, Shirley, MA, United States, Massachusetts 01464 ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Valentine's Day with The James Montgomery Band - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/df1d38b0ccf170a651ff64b4069412b88e3ae9d9203e73120f67d24b119a3f22-rimg-w650-h350-dc141e40-gmir?v=1770914144 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Valentine's Day with The James Montgomery Band being held? - **A:** Valentine's Day with The James Montgomery Band takes place on Sat, 14 Feb, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Sat, 14 Feb, 2026 at 08:00 pm at 215 GREAT ROAD, Shirley, MA, United States, Massachusetts 01464. - **Q**: Who is organizing Valentine's Day with The James Montgomery Band? - **A:** Valentine's Day with The James Montgomery Band is organized by The Bull Run Restaurant. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
