MILFORD, CT — A lineup of blues and rock musicians is set to take the stage later this month in a benefit concert supporting a local food pantry.
Rockin’ 4 Vets will bring its Rock N’ Roll Circus “House Party” to the Parsons Auditorium on April 24 with proceeds benefiting the Purple Pantry Box, which serves residents across the greater Milford area.
The show will feature a trio of seasoned performers, including Jon Butcher, James Montgomery, and Steve Gaspár. Organizers say the event will deliver a “high-energy, high-octane” mix of blues and rock, anchored by musicians with decades of experience and accolades.
Butcher, known for projects like Jon Butcher Axis, has toured nationally and shared stages with major acts including The J. Geils Band, Def Leppard and Rush.
Gaspár, a Grammy-nominated songwriter and former Epic/CBS recording artist, has performed with artists such as James Brown and Edgar Winter and is also known for assembling The Hollywood Allstars.
Montgomery, a longtime blues figure, has spent more than 40 years performing and recording, collaborating with artists ranging from B.B. King and Muddy Waters to Aerosmith and The Rolling Stones. He was inducted into the Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame and the New England Music Hall of Fame in recent years.
Rockin’ 4 Vets, along with Alive & Kicking Productions, organizes benefit concerts across New England to support veterans facing challenges such as PTSD, addiction and homelessness.
Doors for the Milford show open at 7 p.m., with music scheduled from 8 to 10:30 p.m. Tickets start at $43.45.
