Due to popular demand The Lizard Lounge is happy to add 2 shows following the July date that sold out so quickly. In the wake of Sandman's death Morphine's surviving members drummer Billy Conway and saxophonist Dana Colley regrouped with a nine-piece lineup of Boston-area musicians to pay tribute to the band and keep Sandman's music alive.
Mark Sandman, frontman of the Boston-based alternative rock band Morphine, died fifteen years ago, on July 3, 1999. It was the kind of death from which rock legends are born -- he was onstage, at the height of his powers, with the most ambitious album of his career having just been completed. Morphine were signed to a powerful record label, and if they weren't a household name in the music world, they had a large cult following that enabled them to pack large clubs and theaters worldwide.
In the wake of Sandman's death Morphine's surviving members drummer Billy Conway and saxophonist Dana Colley regrouped with a nine-piece lineup of Boston-area musicians to pay tribute to the band and keep Sandman's music alive.
Tonight's show is a salute to Mark and the amazing music he was able to create - featuring Billy Conway, Dana Colley, Christian McNeill, Laurie Sargent, Jerome Deupree, Evan Harriman, Tom Halter, Russ Gershon, and Mike Rivard.
