DONNA THE BUFFALO

This performance will be Standing Room Only. Also, as a courtesy to patrons, wine and beer will be served at this performance.

Donna the Buffalo's feel-good, groove-oriented, danceable and often socially conscious music all began over twenty years ago with roots in old time fiddle music that evolved into a soulful electric Americana mix infused with elements of rock, folk, cajun/zydeco, reggae, and country.

Benefit - Yeasayer, Ducktails and Converse Rubber Tracks recording artists Bodega Girls and Camden for One Fund Boston

Yeasayer's third album, Fragrant World, is a hulking beast of a record. Keyboards clank and wheeze, tiny claps stumble against busted drum machines, and there's very little obvious guitar. It's an album that grapples with the schizophrenia of the modern world by gathering piles of electronics and molding them into something huge and often gorgeous. It's a testament to their sound and the unique identity they've carved out for themselves in the music community.
