10pm- Eva Rubin
Genre: singer/songwriter
For fans of: Aoife O’Donovan, Gillian Welch, Feist, Fionn Regan
Eva Rubin plays alternative folk music. It has an edge because of complex chords with organic melodies that play tribute to both the folk and jazz tradition.
“She was honest, authentic, with a little bit of an edge and a whole lot of heart. She somehow managed to balance a sense of vulnerability with a commanding stage presence that was subtle but firm. Imagine Aimee Mann meets Kacey Musgraves and you just might get a sense of the magnetic pull that Rubin maintained over me. She was great.” - John Barry

Amanda Daviner and Adam Bishop are the creative force known as Dreams of June. Based out of Brooklyn NY, these musical soul mates concoct an alchemy of pop, alternative rock and soulful blues which hook the ear from the first bar.
Amanda’s deeply confessional and emotionally charged lyrics are delivered with a signature style and range only truly great vocalists possess.
When combined with Adam’s mastery of the tableau of rock instruments and indelible pop fusion style, the results fill our ears with unforgettable melodies we are compelled to listen to again and again.
Rounding out the lineup, Dreams of June have added Brendan Smith (Drums), Dan Wilga (Bass) and Joe Wilga (Lead Guitar).
These accomplished multi-instrumentalist and genre players deliver the same explore the world spirit as Adam and Amanda and create a gripping live dynamic in every room they play.
It is most rare for a band to emerge from seemingly out of nowhere with a signature sound that reminds us of what we love most about music and what the future of pop music can be. Dreams of June is one of those bands.
