The Brew

Gathering of the Vibes adds Umphrey's McGee to lineup and announces artists that will be performing on the beach-front solar stage.

Already a much-discussed band throughout New England, The Brew have a genuine shot at capturing the ears of a much larger sect - the nation itself. Their second self-released album, The Key, is as friendly and instantly likeable as a boisterous puppy. A profound focus on song craft helps The Key maintain its easy accessibility, but it's the band's inherent talent that makes the album transcend mere music. Songs are a very good thing, but it often takes a little DNA from the members to make them unique and memorable, and to give them that distant, magical feeling. The Brew have the gift to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary.
