Melt at Black Cat

Go check out Melt this week at Black Cat in Washington DC! This group of friends from New York City was brought together by a common love of music, then separated when it came time to disperse to various colleges around the Northeast. Now, they reunite on weekends to play high-energy shows for their adoring, label-defying fan base. Marked by dancing, funky horns, and jam sections that lead into catchy hooks, it’s not hard to see why their shows draw such huge crowds. Make sure to go this week so you can see what Melt is all about!

Foghat’s Roger Earl Refuses to Slow His Ride

By this point in his life, Foghat founding drummer Roger Earl has visited quite a few doctors. But what may be surprising is that the percussionist, 77, is quick to point out that many of the medical professionals who have worked on him also enjoy rocking out.

“Nearly all the doctors and surgeons I know, they all play something: trumpet, sax, violin, guitar,” Earl said recently. “There’s not too many drummers that are surgeons, there’s probably a good reason for that!”

Earl half-jokingly invites his surgeon-rockers to join him and the other members of Foghat onstage at the Fillmore in Silver Spring March 9, where they will be headlining the Rock and Roll for Children Foundation benefit for the Children’s Inn at NIH. Earl, the only original member of Foghat still in the band, will be banging the skins behind guitarist Bryan Bassett and other members Scott Holt and Rodney O’Quinn. “Slow Ride,” the band’s 1975 megahit, is all but assured to be on the setlist, along with tunes from Foghat’s most recent record, “Sonic Mojo.”
