A Collection of their original songs from over the years called Wicked Good Music‘ is available on CD, and they perform songs in many different genres.
Ellie Marshall was a member of the pop-soul revue Barry Marshall and the Rockin’ Robins, but she is best known for being a featured vocalist and guitarist with Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers, recording on various albums and touring internationally. She also sang lead vocals on a record with the legendary Boston band Big Dipper.
Barry Marshall was musical director and guitarist for Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame inductee Lavern Baker, Atlantic Record’s top selling female recording artist in the late 1950s through the early ’60s. Barry orchestrated her comeback in the 1990s and along with brother, Kevin, toured internationally. Barry and Kevin have also worked with Linda Hopkins, the Supremes’ Mary Wilson, and Ben E. King.
Kevin and Kenny Marshall recorded an album of original music in London with Peter Gunn of the Inmates, which was well received in Europe. They were mainstays of the legendary Rat in Kenmore Square and have performed with artists like the Cars and Rick Danko of The Band.

entertainment will be provided by WMBR DJ Patrick Neil Bryant of Subject to Change and the Somerville Speakout + there will also be live sets by local acts throughout the day by:
the Devilfish – High energy dance music that does not stop! The Devilfish play covers of great rock, surf, mambo, cumbia, punk, blues, boogie, R+B, Latin pop and country songs. Matt McLaren (The Eyesores) plays drums, Jack Hanlon (The Amazing Crowns) plays bass, and Chris Monti plays guitar.
Rock & roll, swamp rock, roots rock… The Low Cards have been described as many things, one thing’s for sure, they rock. Dissonant guitar mayhem, bombastic pigskin pounding, and slap happy upright bass debauchery… The Low Cards are guaranteed to satisfy.
Perhaps it’s no coincidence that death and the macabre are the subject matter of the majority of VulGarrity’s music. True, the brother-sister team’s unhealthy obsession with horror movies is a large part of the equation; however, it’s also symbolic of the journey that brought VulGarrity into existence in 2008. After much soul-searching and musical experimentation, they came upon a solution that takes the do-it-yourself mentality to the extreme: they lay to rest the traditional idea of a rock band and decided to play every instrument themselves…at the same time.
The band uses technology to enhance live performance in a truly extraordinary way. The use of loop pedals allows the dynamic duo to play drums, guitar, bass and keys all at once while executing tight vocal harmonies. That’s not all. They switch instruments too, usually several times during a show, often within the same song, without missing a beat.
Vugarrity came in first place in 90.7 WXIN Providence’s 2010 Rock Hunt. and when they won 95.5 WBRU’s 2011 Rock Hunt, being the first band to win both of Rhode Island’s Rock Hunt contests.
Stage or screen, it’s no secret VulGarrity were born to perform. They’ve shared the stage with Mike Doughty, Days of the New, The Misfits, King’s X, Sponge, The Joy Formidable, Sleeper Agent, Psychostick, The Prodigals, Ra and Electric Six, and don’t show signs of slowing down any time soon. If you haven’t seen them live yet, what are you waiting for? Get your ass to a VulGarrity show! It’s truly a one-of-a-kind experience where the reaction from first-timers is almost always “I’ve never seen anything like that before!”
besides taco trucks on every corner, there will also be outdoor bars, activities for kids & adults, and 60+ vendors will be selling Records, Vintage + DIY Handmade Goods at the Providence Rock + Roll Yard Sale which will be set up in the parking lot adjacent to Grant’s Block!

The urge to document our surroundings dates back to the cave paintings of primitive beings. As artists, each of us interprets the world in a different way, whether realistic, stylized, fantastic or even surreal. A natural surrounding can be transformed by each artist’s translation of what they see, and this collection will showcase unique perspectives.
Also open by appointment. Call 508.324.1926 to schedule a day and time.
There will be a reception on Saturday June 11th from 1-4 pm

June 2011 Boston ICA Rock And Roll Yard Sale Friday Record Events
Chris + Jennifer Daltry of What Cheer in Providence, RI and also the Providence / Somerville Rock & Roll Yard Sales have been asked by the Institute of Contemporary Art – the ICA – in Boston to curate weekly events at the museum to coincide with an exhibit they’re currently hosting called THE RECORD: CONTEMPORARY ART AND VINYL which focuses in on the influence of the Vinyl Record on Contemporary Art and includes work by both underground + well-known artists, including David Byrne of the Talking Heads + Jasper Johns and Laurie Anderson + many more. We are both honored and extremely excited to bring our unique brand of Record Sale to such a prestigious institution, and to be part of this truly incredible exhibit which is said to be first museum exhibition to explore the influence of the vinyl record on visual art.
Our events are Free (with museum admission of $15)
but this is all well worth the price! There will also be a cash bar in the ICA Café adjacent to the Lobby where the Record Sales will be held. This is a Celebration of the Vinyl Record!
the David Byrne piece (above) in this exhibit is the original artwork for the 1978 Talking Heads album “More Songs About Buildings And Food” which is made up of 500+ Polaroid SX-70 Photographs and measures 90″ x 90″ and is really amazing to see in person.
some of our participants should be familiar to those in the Boston and Providence Music Communities – along with some of the best record sellers in the area, we have arranged to have music journalist/writer Brett Milano as a guest DJ on Friday 3rd June. a few years back, Milano wrote a really cool book called Vinyl Junkies – Adventures In Record Collecting – in which he does a magnificent job spelling out the obsession of record collecting through talks with celebrity record collectors like R. Crumb, Peter Buck (R.E.M.) and others. also on Friday June 3rd Mark Robinson of Teenbeat Records will participate as a seller. through his own bands (Unrest, Grenadine . . .) and his record label, Robinson has released many influential records ON VINYL over the years. some other participating sellers and participants will include In Your Ear! Records which has been such a huge benefit to music lovers both in Providence (now Warren, RI) and Boston for almost 30 years now! and then there’s Mad Platter which is the name members of the Psych-Garage band Plan 9 sell records under, and Johnny “The Colonel” Maguire (Amazing Royal Crowns
+ Cobra-Matics) will also be selling on one of the dates, plus veteran
DJ Ty Jesso of Soul Power will also make a DJ appearance. the schedule
participants will be listed here in the near future
basically, vinyl records are really cool – and their recent resurgence is testament to both their cultural significance and superior sound. records are an experience, and an art form. it’s the best thing the record industry every gave us – but their move away from the format has in part led to the sad state the industry is in right now. the record is no fad – it is lasting and wonderful!
Chris and Jennifer Daltry of What Cheer Antiques of Providence, RI present the Boston ICA Rock And Roll Yard Sale – a DIY all-Vinyl Record Marketplace with the area’s best sellers offering all genres of Rare & Unusual as well as quality inexpensive records.
These 2 special Vinyl-Only Rock And Roll Yard Sales coincide with a month-long visual art exhibition at the ICA in Boston called The Record: Contemporary ART and VINYL – a show that explores how contemporary visual artists have been inspired by Vinyl Records.
In addition to putting together the 2 record sales, Chris and Jennifer Daltry will also curate a weekly series of DJs spinning Vinyl Records where local collectors will also be showing off favorites from their collections – there will likely be local music celebrities!
The Rock And Roll Yard Sale has been a popular event for the past 7 years, occurring several times a year both in Rhode Island and in Union Square, Somerville, Massachusetts as part of the Somerville Arts Council’s ArtsUnion program.
DJ Brown Bread will be selling Records, Cassettes, 8-Tracks,
