Pajamas makes their return to The Livery stage with their genre-bending Rock n’ Roll on Friday December 6th!
7pm doors.8pm show
$10adv / $15 door
In an era of precision-crafted playlists and algorithmic recommendations, Pajamas is a refreshing anomaly. Hailing from Ann Arbor, MI, Pajamas’ style has been described as “exploratory rock” – a good descriptor for Pajamas’ sound which contains a smorgasbord of influences from across almost the whole canon of American music tradition. This four man group is redefining the live music experience, standing on the shoulders of giants and crafting performances that are as much about the journey as the destination.
The band’s rocky overall sound is nuanced, feeling almost like each song is an interesting, in-depth conversation between the band and audience. The band’s four members – Nicholas Orr, Graham Low, Owen Kellenberger, and Liam Gallegos – weave together a tapestry of sound that is both intricate and expansive. Songs blend seamlessly into one another, creating a sense of flow and continuity that is all too rare in modern music.
Pajamas draws influence from the likes of Pink Floyd, Phish, Chick Corea, Grateful Dead, Jaco Pastorius, David Bowie, Brian Blade, Radiohead, Victor Wooten, Allman Brothers and many others. Since 2018, Pajamas has played hundreds of shows across the Midwest and beyond. From festivals like Summer Camp and big stages like Frederik Meijer Garden Amphitheater they’ve shared the stage with nationally touring acts including Goose, Aqueous, Thornetta Davis, Karina Rykman and many others. 
 
Mark Lavengood return to The Livery with his trio for a dynamic evening of fast-picking and good times!
7pm doors/8pm show – $10adv/$15 door
Mark Lavengood is a walking, talking ray of sunshine. His resonant energy and sparkling smile light up every stage, every studio, every room, RV and embrace he enters. A talented multi-instrumentalist, Lavengood specializes in dobro & steel guitar, both of which he’s played for over a decade, while also being well-versed in guitar, bass, mandolin, banjo, ukulele, drums, and a variety of percussion instruments. In 2012, Mark was named winner of the acclaimed Rockygrass Dobro Competition hosted at Planet Bluegrass’ headquarters in Lyons, CO. Predominantly as a dobro player, Lavengood toured world-wide for 7 years with the award-winning Michigan-now-Nashville-based Americana outfit Lindsay Lou (formerly, & the Flatbellys), performing at a bucket list of venues and festivals over his time with the band. Both as a member of LLFB and as frontman of his namesake, Mark has performed at: the Telluride Bluegrass Festival, ROMP, Celtic Connections, Blissfest, Wheatland Music Festival, Founders Brewing Company’s signature events; Black Party, Harvest Party & Founders Fest, Cowpie Music Festival, John Hartford Memorial Festival, Farmfest, Earthwork Harvest Gathering, International Folk Alliance, IBMA, and many, many more. He’s also shared the stage performing with or sitting in with the likes of Seth Bernard, Amy Helm, the Infamous Stringdusters, Greensky Bluegrass, Billy Strings, Johnny Irion, Gregory Stovetop, Trout Steak Revival, winter/sessions, amongst others. At each stop along the way, whether on tour, in the studio, or passing you on the street, Mark’s positivity and genuine warmth is an immediate captivator. His selfless and gregarious nature has allowed him to collaborate, write and record with some hall-of-fame worthy talents. Cutting his teeth in the art and music meccas of Ann Arbor & Nashville, Lavengood has recently returned home to his native Grand Rapids, Michigan, with a new, adorable family and a headful of ambition in tow. Since returning to GR, a burgeoning art and music scene in its own right, Lavengood has ‘narrowed’ his focus to his main, namesake project, as well as teaching and developing education platforms, mentoring, writing, recording, producing, writing for film, tv, advertising sync license opportunities, growing a music business (Bear Mark Productions) and of course, performing. A natural showman, Mark has released three full-length, critically-acclaimed records, the most recent with the Michigan-based Earthwork Music Collective.
Due to his lovable nature, boundless optimism, warm embrace and cavernous-yet-soft-and-delicate blue eyes, Mark garnered the nickname “Huggy Bear” early in his career, and upon meeting, one understands why. There’s simply no denying that this is a very special soul.
“Mark Lavengood is truly a treasure in our lives and his music and positivity shine through the darkness like no other. A great songwriter and a master on the dobro, I am honored to call him my friend.”
— Billy Strings

7pm doors/8pm show – $10
TY:
Ty Maxon, whose sound UpToHear described as ” simultaneously familiar, yet like no one you’ve heard before”, is a fingerstyle guitarist and folk singer-songwriter from Michigan who came up in the Chicago songwriting scene. Known for his emotive songwriting, intricate guitar work, and distinctive voice, Ty’s earnest approach to songwriting has earned him a place in the indie folk world.

MIKE:
Mike Struwin, who began playing music at the age of 13 has long been a force in the regional music scenes of West Michigan, for lyrics and music imbued with a sense of honesty, empathy and authenticity. The Michigan native released his first collection of original songs at the age 17 and has given no signs of stopping, recently unveiling his ninth studio album entitled, “Ginger Peach”. The album, “Ginger Peach ” contains 11 songs drenched in love and “one-drop” grooves. Featuring Matt Sypian on drums and the three-part harmonies from our very own vocal “powerhouse”, The Backups, “Ginger Peach ” conjures up memories of care-free summer days, fun in the sun and lazing on the beach.

8pm show
Honor Cover ($10 suggested)
 
Midwestern space cowboy playing romantic rock ‘n roll for the cosmic-hearted.
Born in rural Michigan, Gregory played everything from folk and country to heavy metal.
His music is rooted in classic riff rock and pop love songs that cut to the core of the heart.
 
Gregory Stovetop is a human Olympic Torch. Born and raised in Chelsea, Michigan and currently hailing from Queens, New York, Stovetop has earned a devoted cult following that comes from the underground and is quickly making it’s way up into the airwaves around the world. An electrified Earth Angel, radiating love and passion in an original singular world of sound, Gregory Stovetop is as fluent in Elvis and Johnny Cash as he is in Soundgarden and The Replacements. After a string of lo-fi DIY releases and almost 2 decades as an underground cult-favorite phenom, Gregory Stovetop is emerging with his first proper studio release – “The Good Stuff”, recorded by Ian Gorman in Kalamazoo, mixed by Eddie Spear (Jack White, Willie Nelson) in Nashville and mastered by Glenn Brown (Spinal Tap, Eminem) in Lansing. “The Good Stuff” was co-produced by longtime friends and fans Dominic Davis and Seth Bernard, who selected the songs, studios and players in an effort to put all the pieces together for the best rock record possible.

About Dixon’s Violin:
You’ve never heard violin like this! The world’s premier visionary violinist, Dixon’s life mission is to inspire people – and he has done so at over 1,000 concerts across North America, including giving five TED talks/performances, over ten years at Burning Man and Electric Forest, plus radio, TV, and film appearances. A former technology leader and symphony violinist, Dixon walked away from a distinguished career to follow his dream full-time, and invented a whole new music genre. Dixon now improvises on a 5-string electric violin with a looping system he developed to create an all-live one-man symphony, guided by his remarkable personal story of life transformation.
“The violinist that is changing the world” – Preserve the Future
“Standing ovation…It’s no surprise that Dixon was voted the best of the evening” – Examiner”
Not your ordinary violinist” – Fox 2 News
“It’s quite an accomplishment for a man who possibly invented a new genre on his violin” – City Pulse
“One in particular, Dixon’s Violin, blew minds with a folksy, heartfelt set, performed entirely by one man and one electric violin.” – Examiner

We offer a “Michigan-centric” event calendar each month, with most live entertainment taking place on Friday and Saturday. We occasionally book a Thursday or Sunday event, given a strong history in our market. Otherwise, our focus is on our established local bands, Michigan-based bands, and other strong Regional/National touring bands. While we always like to give local bands the chance to cut their teeth on our stage, we simply cannot accommodate all requests….and we often find it difficult to book bands from out of the area, given the volume of requests we receive.
