An undisputed expert in the fine art of making hit music, Jim Messina’s legacy of musical genius spans five decades, three super groups, a vibrant solo career and scores of producing and engineering credits.

While acting as producer/audio engineer for Rock & Roll Hall of Famers Buffalo Springfield, Messina ultimately joined the band as its bass player. When “the Springfield” disbanded in 1968, Jim and fellow bandmate Richie Furay formed Poco. With Jim on lead guitar, Poco defined a new musical genre, Country Rock. After three successful albums, Jim was ready for a change and left to return to his passion for producing music. He signed as an independent producer with Columbia Records.

In November 1970, Columbia asked Jim to work with an unknown Kenny Loggins. While helping Kenny get ready for a record and touring, the two discovered that they worked well together and Jim agreed to sit in on Kenny’s first album. Kenny Loggins with Jim Messina Sittin’ In was released in November of 1971 and an accidental duo was formed.

Over the next seven years, Loggins & Messina released eight hit albums, had scores of hit songs and sold over 16 million albums. They had become one of rock’s most successful recording duos ever, but it was time for the duo to go their separate ways.

After a series of celebrated solo acoustic tours, Jim formed a band made of acclaimed musicians who have played with him at various points in his career. His latest release, In the Groove, includes selected hits from all three of Jim’s previous bands, as well as several of his solo works.

Touring the country and playing sold-out shows, Jim says that he’s enjoying discovering who he is, where he’s been and, most significantly, where he’s going.

“The real thing, people” —Billboard

“Soul-marinated voice” —Rolling Stone

“Mr. Sexton as an impassioned performer can bring women and men to tears when they see him live” —Wall Street Journal

“The best live performer I’ve ever seen.” —John Mayer

“Master of dynamics, reducing a room to silence with his blustering baritone, then teasing that silence with a fluttering falsetto.” —Acoustic Guitar

About Martin Sexton

America comes together in the music of Martin Sexton. Our hearts mend, our political and philosophical differences melt away, and the various strains of our roots music entangle. Of Sexton, The New York Times says: “His unpretentious heartiness helps him focus on every soul singer’s goal: to amplify the sound of the ordinary heart.”

Sexton has remained true to his mission of sharing peace and harmony throughout his 10 albums, and in countless incendiary live performances. He has thus built a loyal following of fans, including critics and superstar artists. He is without a doubt what Billboard calls: “The real thing.”

These days, people are coming together to revel in Sexton’s musicality for his Martin Sexton Abbey Road Show. This is a live show extravaganza in which he performs the iconic Beatles’ album in its entirety followed by a set of mainly original music. Currently, Sexton is also working on his 11th album, which will be his first full-length album in 10 years.

Sexton is a songwriter’s songwriter, with a multi-octave voice that knows no bounds. Acoustic Guitar Magazine calls him a: “Master of dynamics, reducing a room to silence with his blustering baritone, then teasing that silence with a fluttering falsetto.”

Sexton’s career in music has unfolded like the stories in one of his sweetly redemptive songs. He got his start busking on streets and performing at open mics. Since then, he has gone on to be praised by modern legends such as John Mayer and Dave Matthews, who calls him one of his favorite singer-songwriters. Sexton’s songs of grappling and gratitude were the soundtrack to John Mayer’s early gigging years, and made an indelible impact on the budding songwriter. Mayer says: “This is the music of my LIFE.”

Sexton has headlined venues from The Fillmore to Carnegie Hall, and his songs have appeared in television series such as Scrubs, Parenthood, Masters of Sex, and in numerous films. His dynamically emotive live show has earned him critical raves and an engaged and loyal following. The Wall Street Journal says: “Mr. Sexton as an impassioned performer can bring women and men to tears when they see him live.”

Join the Rock My Soul choir and band (complete with horns!) for a spirit-soaring evening of R&B, pop, soul, and doo-wop–influenced arrangements of Christmas carols and holiday favorites.

Formed in 2004, Rock My Soul has grown into a vibrant musical force in northern New England, known for its rousing, raise-the-rafters approach to gospel-inspired music. The group has built a loyal and ever-growing audience across New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts, regularly performing to packed houses where audiences often find themselves singing—and dancing—in the aisles. At its core, Rock My Soul bridges the traditional and the contemporary, honoring the roots of American gospel while bringing it vividly into the present day.

Rock My Soul is as tight and polished as a fine choral group, yet has the immediacy and soulfulness of the old-time, “golden age” American gospel sound it seeks to celebrate and preserve. While the performances are undeniably joyful and entertaining, the group also embraces a deeper purpose: sharing the stories behind the music. Concerts often include brief context about the history and meaning of specific songs, exploring the roots of this music and its powerful role in American culture, particularly during slavery and the Civil Rights era.

As one member of the Boston-based Silver Leaf Gospel Singers once remarked after sharing the stage with the group: “You just don’t get to hear gospel done that way anymore. I’m so glad you all are doing it!”

“Unless you’re from the South or attend a church with a bangin’ choir, you’re not likely to hear bona fide gospel tunes sung the way Rock My Soul performs them.” — Jon Nolan, The Wire

Rock My Soul continues to offer audiences a rare experience—music that is both celebratory and rooted, polished yet full of soul, and always delivered with heart.
