Paul Hodes and The Blue Buddha Band
Fundraiser benefiting GATHER
Saturday, February 17
Doors 6pm / Event 7pm
All ages / Seated
Pay-what-you-choose (starting at $22)

What do you get when you put together a Congressman, two mad scientists, and a jazz drummer?! The Blue Buddha Band fuses together retro rock, folk, roots, and superb songwriting. As one reviewer summed it up, their sound pushes forward with “textured instrumentation, stunning musicianship, and an addictive vibe."

Led by guitar-slinging former Congressman Paul Hodes, the Seacoast-based band also features bassist Jon Gabay, Dean Rubine on keyboards, drummer Ed Raczka, and guest vocalist Peggo Horstmann Hodes.

Paul Hodes and TBBB are delighted to play 3S, while uplifting and supporting the mission of GATHER, an organization working to address food insecurity in the Seacoast area. A portion of the night's proceeds will go directly to GATHER. Your ticket purchase also supports 3S Artspace, a 501(c)(3) contemporary arts nonprofit.
