Here’s a new duo featuring Andrew Macey & Matthew Pecoraro that’s sure to bring a sweet blend vocal harmonies and guitar improvisation with structure and composition, providing new takes on old tunes and some crowd favorites.
Stan Lyness
Born. Grew up. Programmed a lot... This is the most you’ll find about Stan on the web, except for his lengthy catalogue of self-penned songs. His lyrics are always clever, wry, humorous, and expertly put together. Most of the music in the country/rock/blues genres but all from an old-school perspective. Take a listen at www.stanlyness.com
Danny Pepper & Liz Kyer
Rockin’, rowdy, bluesy and fun, Danny sings and plays great original music as well as choice cover songs of his favorite musical heroes with fiddlin’ Pharmacist, Liz Kyer on backing vocals and violin.

Andrew Geano
Andrew is a Boston based singer-songwriter and acoustic performance artist. He hosts his own weekly open mic at Terry O'Reilly's Irish Pub in Newton, MA and constantly performs his own solo shows throughout all of New England. His music could be described as “acoustic, pretty sad but very melodic, tightly constructed, pop-rock, ballad-ish pseudo folk tunes…sort of.”
