From the metaphorical ashes of a breakup to the literal ashes of a house fire, folk-rocker Wallace Field rises like a phoenix from the ashes with her debut album “All Costs,” out now. The album features nine original songs, took four years to make, and premiered on the fifth anniversary of the house fire. With her “powerful voice reminiscent of Joan Baez” (The Valley Advocate), Field stuns with her haunting, vulnerable songwriting and “crystalline voice” (The Recorder). The Boston Globe says "she always sounds like she means it." Most of the album’s songs were written on baritone ukulele, always with the aim to transform them into a more powerful full-band sound. Field grew up in western Massachusetts, where she currently resides. She’s performed in popular Massachusetts venues such as Cambridge’s Club Passim; Northampton's The Iron Horse and The Parlor Room; Race Street Live (formerly Gateway City Arts) in Holyoke; and Taffeta in Lowell. She's opened for acts like Nellie McKay, Charlie Parr, Heather Maloney, and Elizabeth Moen. Field also took part in Signature Sounds’ 2023 and 2025 Back Porch Festivals and 2023 Arcadia Folk Festival. She is currently working on her sophomore record.
Wes and Paul is an acoustic duo consisting of Wes Aldrich and Paul Venezia of the band Hug the Dog. The pair were the first act to ever perform on our stage back in November, and we can’t wait to have them back!
