Saturday night in Boston was an amazing musical experience. At the Middle East Downstairs, a collection of musicians joined together to put on a night of music worth remembering.
Since 2009, Boston Band Crush has started an event called One Night Band.
The idea is genius. Give 40 talented musicians a day to be tossed around in a hat and paired with different members from other local acts. The result could be disastrous but it definitely turned the other way.
Their goal is to take one day to prepare a handful of original tunes and one cover. Ashley from Boston Band Crush was brilliant enough to come up with this beautiful concept.
Like I said, the results could very well be terrible. But thankfully, Boston has an extreme amount of talented musicians. EVERY SINGLE ACT that played was great. No one was a let down.
All I can say is that I can’t wait for next years event. This one was one to remember for quite some time.
