EGGY - 2026 Tour
2026-07-11 16:00 - 21:30 | Levitt Pavilion for the Performing Arts, 40 Jesup Road, Westport, Connecticut, 06880, United States
Eggy is redefining the modern jam band experience with a blend of rich songwriting, exploratory improvisation, and magnetic live energy. The Connecticut-based quartet—Jake Brownstein (guitar, vocals), Dani Battat (keys, vocals), Mike Goodman (bass, vocals), and Alex Bailey (drums, vocals)—has built a reputation for emotionally resonant songs and live performances that turn every set into an unpredictable, communal experience.
2024 marked a breakout moment for the band with the release of their sophomore album Waiting Game, a refined studio statement co-produced by White Denim’s James Petralli. The album propelled Eggy into their largest headline touring year to date, while earning standout performances at major festivals including Austin City Limits, Electric Forest, and Suwannee Hulaween.
That momentum only accelerated through 2025. Eggy continued expanding their footprint with extensive headline touring, a growing list of festival appearances, and a reputation as one of the most consistently compelling live acts in the jam and rock space. Around Halloween, the band sold out back-to-back nights at Cervantes in Denver, transforming the city into a pilgrimage site for fans with their themed run celebrating The Ballad of Blucifer. The shows underscored the band’s ability to create moments that feel both playful and deeply meaningful, while proving their staying power in key markets.
As they look ahead to 2026, Eggy enters a new chapter defined by confidence, creative ambition, and sustained growth. With continued headline touring on the horizon and plans to begin creating new music in early 2026, the band is focused on pushing their sound forward without losing the emotional core that has defined them. From intimate rooms to sold-out club runs and marquee festival stages, Eggy continues to convert first-time listeners into lifelong fans. Wherever they play next, one thing remains constant: no two shows are ever the same, and the journey is just getting started.
To purchase tickets to this event, and for more event information, visit www.levittpavilion.com, The Levitt Pavilion Season includes paid-ticket programming alongside the over 50 shows presented free-of-charge each year.

2026-07-15 19:00 - 20:30 | Levitt Pavilion for the Performing Arts, 40 Jesup Road, Westport, Connecticut, 06880, United States
ELENA MOON PARK CELEBRATES THE MAGIC OF EVERYDAY LIFE ON NOTHING IS ORDINARY – A GLOBALLY INSPIRED ALL AGES ALBUM OUT MAY 29, 2026
Musician and cultural producer Elena Moon Park returns with Nothing Is Ordinary, a luminous new collection of songs that invites listeners of all ages to rediscover the wonder woven into everyday life.
Built around the idea that the world surrounding us is both ordinary and extraordinary at once, the album encourages a deeper kind of listening, one that embraces birdsong in the morning, the quiet glow of the moon in daylight, and the countless small stories unfolding around us at any given moment.
“When I sit with this idea, I find myself noticing more of both the grand and the mundane,” says Park. “I’m reminded that so much of my joy comes from listening closely, from paying attention to the world and the people around me. This collection of songs is dedicated to the idea that everything around us is magical, while also being oh-so common. And I realize that my greatest joy is in hearing and noticing everyone and everything, and listening for all the stories, large and small. Everyone has a story to share. Find yours and sing it loud.”
Nothing Is Ordinary is Park’s third all ages album, and continues her singular approach to family music, one rooted in respect, curiosity, and artistic depth. The collection brings together reimagined folk and children’s songs from East and Southeast Asia alongside original compositions inspired in part by the artwork of longtime collaborator Kristiana Pärn.

The CORA Foundation Community Conversation with Ellen Harvey + Dan Woog

Join us for an evening inspired by Looking for History, MoCACT’s summer exhibition featuring Ellen Harvey’s The Disappointed Tourist. This special program brings the exhibition’s themes of memory, loss, and place into a local context, inviting audiences to reflect on the spaces that have shaped—and disappeared from—our shared landscape.
Moderated by journalist and 06880 founder Dan Woog, the conversation features an interview with artist Harvey alongside preservation advocate Ed Gerber (Historic New England). Together, they will explore the cultural and emotional significance of lost places, from global landmarks to beloved Westport institutions.
For the MoCACT Looking for History exhibition, Harvey has created four new paintings based on local submissions: The Remarkable Book Shop, Cedar Brook Cafe, Bloodroot, and Allen’s Clam House, which will serve as a starting point for a broader community dialogue.
The evening will also include brief presentations from selected community participants sharing their own “lost places,” adding personal perspective and storytelling to the discussion. As our Disappointed Tourist Guide, Woog will present the award selections. Categories include “Place You Thought Would Last Forever,” “What a Cool Hangout!” “Just One More Bite,” followed by an audience vote to crown one favorite missed location.

Amani Burnham – the 20-year-old blues-rock sensation and Connecticut-based artist who has captivated millions on social media with his raw talent and magnetic presence – is ready to take flight with Roots & Wings, his debut album on the acclaimed Blind Pig Records label. The 12-track collection showcases Amani’s remarkable guitar work—played uniquely with his right-hand thumb rather than a pick—alongside soulful vocals and introspective songwriting. From the turbo-charged instrumental “Fastlane” to the deeply personal title track reflecting on his Ethiopian roots, the album crackles with groovy blues-rock riffs, cosmic solos, and stinging vibrato. Recorded at the renowned Carriage House Studios with a classic power-trio setup, Roots & Wings honors the legacy of blues-rock giants while heralding a bold new voice for a new generation. Stay connected with Amani.

“Meet Amani Burnham, the budding blues-rock hero blending fingerstyle technique with SRV tone. Burnham is blowing minds with his fretwork.” – Guitar World (APRIL, 2026)
“A spectacular new blues guitar force.” —Blues Chronicles
“With Roots and Wings Amani Burnham blazes his own trail, following closely in the lights of guitarists like Hendrix and Stevie Vaughan, but brings is own fierce styles of towering rhythms and blistering leads on his songs.” — Living Blues
20 year-old Connecticut-based Amani Burnham will be releasing his debut album Roots & Wings (Blind Pig Records) on May 29! Experience his Levitt Pavilion debut – the first free show of the 2026 Season – and clock your bragging rights now!
Seventy years after its initial recording, blues-rock artist Amani Burnham posted a video of himself playing Muddy Waters’ “Hoochie Coochie Man.” It was surreal to see a 19-year-old on Instagram wielding a white Fender Stratocaster with such dexterous ferocity and sensual charisma.
In his hands, the Willie Dixon blues standard sounded sexy and dangerous again. At the time, Amani hadn’t been playing guitar for very long, and the post was simply a natural extension of his love for blues-rock. Yet his fluid soloing and electrifying showmanship captured the imagination of blues fans and seasoned professional musicians alike, inadvertently heralding the arrival of a new blues dynamo.
Today, Amani is stepping out from behind the screen with his debut album, Roots & Wings, coming soon on Blind Pig Records. The 12-track collection showcases Amani’s remarkable guitar work—played uniquely with his right-hand thumb rather than a pick—alongside soulful vocals and introspective songwriting. From the turbo-charged instrumental “Fastlane” to the deeply personal title track reflecting on his Ethiopian roots, the album crackles with groovy blues-rock riffs, cosmic solos, and stinging vibrato. Recorded at the renowned Carriage House Studios with a classic power-trio setup, Roots & Wings honors the legacy of blues-rock giants while heralding a bold new voice for a new generation.​
Since starting on social media in late 2023, Amani has amassed more than 240,000 followers and nearly 30 million cumulative views on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook. “Blues, like nature, has to keep evolving,” Amani says. “You can trace heavy metal, prog rock, grunge, everything, back to it. I want to be a part of that evolution.”​

DOGS IN A PILE - Summer Tour
2026-07-17 18:00 - 21:30 | Levitt Pavilion for the Performing Arts, 40 Jesup Road, Westport, Connecticut, 06880, United States
Something organic has been blooming from Asbury Park, New Jersey, and is now making its way around the world. Dogs In A Pile, a band of five twenty somethings with old souls and limitless chops, is waking people up to the timeless and ineffable joys of psychedelic-tinged jazz-funk rock n’ roll.
This is one of the busiest touring bands of today, averaging 130 live shows per year since 2022. The road has become their creative engine, generating a rapidly growing catalog of original tunes. Distroid, the band’s newest album, is a 10-song collection featuring long-awaited studio versions of some of the Dogs’ most beloved repertoire.
Dogs In A Pile is guitarist Jimmy Law, guitarist Brian Murray, keyboardist Jeremy Kaplan, bassist Sam Lucid, and drummer Joe Babick. In addition, the Dogs In A Pile community includes the Dog Pound, the group’s extended family of fans across the country.
Besides being a lyric from the Grateful Dead song, “He’s Gone,” the name “Dogs In A Pile” is an apt description of the five-piece band’s stylistic breadth. The sonic image it conjures is a heap of storyteller Americana, bluegrass, jazz improvisation, eccentric instrumental excursions, pop-rock sophistication, and deep-pocket grooves, ranging from funk to Latin to reggae and beyond.
Distroid features material that has already become staples of the band’s live show. These studio renditions have afforded the group a chance to present the compositions just how they envision them. Distroid offers a cross-section of the Dogs In A Pile essence, tight and tuneful four-minute funk and jazz informed psych-rock songs, and then sprawling 15-minute compositions with intricate unison lines, agile genre-jumping, and dazzling improvisation.

MT Jones – FREE CONCERT
2026-07-19 19:00 - 21:00 | Levitt Pavilion for the Performing Arts, 40 Jesup Road, Westport, Connecticut, 06880, United States
Gathering inspiration from ’60s and ’70s soul greats across the Atlantic to modern R&B and jazz, MT Jones evokes a sound that is both contemporary and timeless. His deeply soulful vocals transport you straight back to a smoke-filled speakeasy that somehow still feels fresh and innovative.
Between stints working on music regularly in Liverpool & London, Jones has travelled the world as a musician & penned songs for other artists, making a name for himself as a gifted and prolific songwriter. But lockdown gave him the time and space to put his talent under his own name. His debut single, “I Won’t Ever Say Goodbye,” was a soulful, heart-on-sleeve ballad that marked the start of big things and he has followed it with a series of singles that have grabbed widespread attention and half a million monthly listeners on Spotify, especially after BBC introducing multiple spins on 1xtra, where MT was a ‘Step up’ artist.
Now he releases “Joy,” his debut album, in March of 2026, using it as a launchpad for an extended time on the road, where audiences will get a chance to vibe with his substantial talents in a live setting.
