Event Description

New London Music Fest presents a night of pure rock and roll featuring the hot Boston act Sarah Borges and the Broken Singles joined by seminal New London rockers The Reducers. This is summer at its best: an evening under the stars, rocking out in the downtown, great beer and wine, and good friends dancing the night away. Don't miss it!

"The incendiary live sets from the Telecaster-wielder and her band are becoming near-legendary..."
-- Austin American-Statesman

"There aren't many buzzed-over young rockers with Smokey Robinson and NRBQ tunes floating around their heads, but Sarah Borges covers both on her third LP... 'Stars' shows off Borges' friendly pop-rock attack and tosses in bits of twang, rockabilly and Fifties pop... thanks largely to Borges' warm, perky voice, Stars is tuneful and unhip in a hip kinda way."
-- Rolling Stone

“Rock & roll like you dream about it. Their cross-class sniping isn't as sharp as their what-the-fuck-are-we-doing-in-New-London? because no matter how you strip them down and speed them up, blues & country sources still put a premium on personal expressiveness. Thus the Reducers' satire is straightforward rather than deadpan, their anger their own. For cartoony affectlessness they substitute contained, rapid-fire soul; for chordal roar, licks and even quick, clipped, vaguely Claptonesque solos; for ur-pop hooks, a honky imitation of the blues.” -- Robert Christgau
