Join Chandler Travis for a Unique Night of Music at Club Passim

Get ready for an unforgettable evening of music at Club Passim on Friday, September 6th, where Chandler Travis will be joined by longtime string bassist John Clark and the incredibly talented Joey Thieman on trumpet, accordion, and keys. This show is set to be a special, scaled-down affair—think of it as a songwriter's showcase with a twist, offering a more intimate and “respectable” vibe than you might expect from Chandler.

This trio is a dynamic combination of seasoned musicians who bring their own distinct styles to the table. John Clark's deep experience and Joey Thieman's fresh energy, as a recent transplant from Louisville, KY, make this a must-see performance. The night promises to deliver a rich tapestry of sounds that span genres, with each musician contributing to a set that’s bound to surprise and delight.

For those who have followed Chandler’s journey, you know that his summer has been packed with musical ventures. He’s been busy reviving his old band, the Incredible Casuals—now aptly renamed the Invincible Casuals—alongside his new project, the Buttercups, both featuring original Casuals drummer Rikki Bates. Plus, the eight-piece Chandler Travis Philharmonic, described by some as the “missing link between Sun Ra and the Kinks,” has been back in action all summer, although on a more relaxed schedule.

If you’ve never seen Chandler Travis perform, you’re in for a treat. With a career that includes extensive touring and recording with legends like George Carlin, Jonathan Edwards, NRBQ, and a host of others, Chandler’s performances are always unpredictable, highly entertaining, and musically rich. His work has taken him around the world, sharing stages with the likes of Elvis Costello, Bruce Springsteen, and Bonnie Raitt, just to name a few.

So why should you come out to this show? Because it’s a rare opportunity to see a true musical storyteller in an intimate setting, surrounded by fellow music lovers. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to Chandler’s eclectic style, this performance at Club Passim is the perfect way to wrap up your summer with some soul-stirring, foot-tapping tunes.
