Doctor Gasp returns to the Blue Room joined by Western Mass string band, Moon Hollow for a spooky evening of music as we welcome in the Halloween season at CitySpace
Do you distaste the flavor of wax lips? Throat sore from cackling like a phantom? Well... don't lose your head! Haunting can be daunting... and to be Frank; a pain in the neck! This season leave all the ghoulishness to that maniacal minstrel... Doctor Gasp! Beneath the mask of this phantom is a New England folk musician Dan Blakeslee with his unique bag of all original songs of Halloween oozing with vampires and ghastly creeps. Blakeslee's songs are a throwback to old-time cult horror themes, giving nods to Bobby Pickett (Monster Mash), Alfred Hitchcock, John Zacherle and the cavernous voice of Paul Frees. Each October the unexpected spectacle Doctor Gasp rises from the shadows delivering an earful of eerie for the young, old and immortal!
Moon Hollow is a high-energy string magic from Western Mass. Blending folk, americana, bluegrass, and jazz, this quartet brings soaring violin, mandolin, upright bass and guitar to create a sonud that's both timeless and electrifying. Perfect for foot-stomping nights or mellow listening vibes.
