Pangea

Pangea is a jazz rock fusion band led by Boston based guitarist and composer Omar Sosa. When Sosa founded the band in the summer of 2015, it began as a septet, but it has fluctuated in size and personnel over the years as the project has evolved. The current lineup is a quintet comprised of Trevor Mitoma on keys, Jackson Mann on bass, Steve Wilkinson on drums, Jake Hirsch on tenor saxophone, and Omar Sosa on guitar. Drawing influence from artists such as Lettuce, Snarky Puppy, Tigran Hamasyan, and many more, Pangea delivers high energy music that strives to surprise its audience. Their first EP, titled Animal Instincts, was released on Sunday February 3rd, 2019 and is available on all major streaming services.

The Nice Marmots

The Nice Marmots, from the Quincy, Massachusetts metropolitan area, are Irina Cashen on vocals, Ketut Suwastawan and Tom Emswiler on guitar, Winston Féliz on keyboards, Benny Appleby on bass guitar, and Brian Carey on drums. With influences including the Police, Paul Simon, Rilo Kiley, Lucinda Williams, and REM, The Nice Marmots produce singer-songwriter pop tunes that leave audiences humming and maybe even nodding along. The band began playing music in 2013 with Irina and Tom. After playing covers for a year, The Nice Marmots began writing their own songs. They recorded basement demos to fine tune their craft and find their sound. With open mics and porchfests under their belt, The Nice Marmots entered the studio in Summer 2017 to record their debut EP, A Lotta Ins, A Lotta Outs, available from Bandcamp. Later that year Winston and Ketut joined, followed by Brian and Benny in the 2020s. The six members now produce a wall of sound. Music videos and more are available at…
