HEADLINER:
Motor Booty Affair
"Motor Booty Affair has been lighting up stages across America with their
70’s extravaganza for several years, continually improving on the show that
has been dubbed “The Ultimate Disco Party Band”.
The music is infectious - the most danceable songs of all time. The band is
tighter than tight, delivering dance floor classics with confidence, groove,
style and attitude. The show is spectacular - from the afros, bell-bottoms,
platform shoes, polyester and dance moves, to the highest quality sound
and light show this side of 1975.
Motor Booty Affair consists of 4 funkateers straight from the planet Funktar;
Superfly, Spanish Fly, Vinnie Boom-Boom Funktonio and Cyclone Link Skywalker Jr. It is their mission to get the crowd groovin’ as they deliver hits
from Earth Wind & Fire, The Bee-Gees, KC and the Sunshine Band, Chic,
The Commodores, Barry White, Abba and more. The songs are authentically
reproduced by these top notch musicians with unsurpassed quality and attention to detail.
MBA’s show is energetic and peppered with 70’s lingo jive talkin’ and stage
antics to make for an event you will never forget. Make sure you bring your
boogie shoes because no matter how big the dance floor is - it’s always
packed from the first song to the last!"
OPENER:
Terry Swett Band
"Born and raised in rural North Norway, Maine, Terry Swett was the youngest of nine children. Terry immersed himself in creativity from an early age, always making or building something. Limited resources became the perfect recipe for great imagination. A free thinker with a taste for rhythm and rhyme, he started writing poetry around the age of twelve.
At age 13, he started playing drums with the school band, continuing throughout high school. “I loved the rhythm of it,” he said, “but I was growing far more passionate about rock and roll. I formed my first band, "Blue Flame", in my first year of junior high school, performing throughout my high school years. I eventually found an attraction to the sweet harmonies of some of the more folk sounds of Crosby, Stills and Nash, Seals and Crofts, Loggins and Messina as well as southern bands like Marshall Tucker, Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Outlaws. All the while, however, I loved a compelling story and how it was delivered, especially if it involved nice harmonies."
While hitchhiking all over the USA, he took up sign painting which ultimately became a lifelong trade in addition to his music.
In 2012, Terry Swett founded the band, Milltown Roadshow, with group of talented players from bluegrass roots. Performing many of Terry's original songs along with Americana classics, the name is a reflection of the vibrant mill towns that were so prevalent until the many factories moved overseas, leaving behind thousands of misplaced mill workers."
