Friday, August 29 – Doors at 7 PM / Music at 8 PM – $10 online / $15 at the door
Join us at The Button Factory Stage for a warm summer send-off on Friday, August 29, with a lineup that blends lush melodies, heartfelt storytelling, and genre-bending soundscapes. Three bands. One stage. A perfect August night.
The Clearwater Swim kicks things off with immersive indie rock full of texture and feeling. Their sound—dreamy and reflective—wraps around you like a saltwater breeze, pulling from post-rock and shoegaze influences to create a rich sonic tide.
Next up, Star Family Singers deliver cosmic folk-pop with celestial harmonies and otherworldly charm. Their music invites listeners on an imaginative journey—familiar and strange, nostalgic and new, like a family band from the future or a campfire séance under alien stars.
Closing the evening is none other than Bird Friend, a beloved Button Factory regular whose thoughtful folk music never fails to move the room. With intricate acoustic arrangements and tender vocals, their songs celebrate connection, vulnerability, and the beauty found in quiet moments. Whether you’re a longtime fan or hearing them for the first time, Bird Friend’s performances always feel like coming home.
Tickets are $10 in advance at PortsmouthNHTickets.com, or $15 at the door. As always, you can tune in to 106.1 FM WSCA or stream live on the WSCA app to get a taste of what’s to come.
Come for the stories. Stay for the magic.
