During the Eat Your Heart Out chef tasting, attendees feast on small plates created by each guest chef. VIP ticket holders receive early access to select chefs, a gift bag and other perks when they enter the venue at 5:00PM; general admission ticket holders join them at 6:00PM to feast on chef creations. Each chef’s dish is inspired by their favorite musical band or genre (i.e., “A Tribute to KISS: Beef Tongue” and “An ode to Elvis Presley’s love of chicken, butter and anything fried: Ain’t Nothin Butter Hound Dog”). Food lovers are encouraged to take advantage of the opportunity to mix and mingle with their favorite restaurant talent and musical entertainment, who will also be enjoying the tasting. At 8:00PM, guests put down their plates, grab a beverage and turn their attention to The Sinclair stage to listen to the stage to listen to a great nationally recognized artist.

Like some kind of sonic Pulp Fiction, Bad Rabbits fuse futuristic R&B and post-rock for a slick one-two punch.

MTV Buzzworthy couldn’t have said it better, Bad Rabbits are “…a vibrant, horn-blasting, dirty bass funk-popping blast of throwback R&B charm.” The multi-cultural Boston five-piece—Fredua “Dua” Boakye [vocals], Sheel Davé [drums], Salim Akram [guitar], Graham Masser [bass], and Santiago Araujo [guitar]—confidently struts through genres with unrestrained swagger and a whole lot of attitude.

Tickets for Eat Your Heart Out are on sale through Ticketmaster. VIP tickets are $75 per person, and general admission tickets are $50 per person.
