Concert In Marlborough Will Mark 10th Anniversary Of Musician's Death

MARLBOROUGH, MA — A concert this weekend in Marlborough will pay tribute to a fixture of the central Massachusetts music scene who died a decade ago in a crash along I-290.

James "Scott" Ricciuti's former bandmates in Huck and Childhood will play with Angry Tony & the Homewreckers Saturday at Lost Shoe Brewing to mark the 10-year anniversary of Ricciuti's death.

"We will be joined by Scott’s former bandmates Ken Ebell, Greg Passler and Paul Dagnello among others. We will be performing songs from Scott’s extensive catalog including tunes by Childhood, Huck and Pistol Whipped," the Facebook event page says.

Ricciuti formed the pop trio Huck in the late 1990s, and later recorded with the roots-country act Pistol Whipped. Ricciuti also backed Shana Morrison, daughter of Van Morrison, and often performed solo.

The location of Saturday's concert will also be special. The music will take place near the former Sully's First Edition Pub (now Double T's), where Ricciuti used to play with his bandmates in the Homewreckers.

Ricciuti, 48, died on April 5, 2012, when he crashed into a guardrail along eastbound I-290, according to state police.

Saturday's music runs 4 to 7 p.m. outside Lost Shoe Brewing & Roasting, 19 Weed St.
