Sound On is a concert series at WBUR CitySpace highlighting rising local musicians. Artists run the gamut from fresh faces new on the scene and experiencing a meteoric rise, to tried-and-true musicians who’ve been around for decades and are creating their most resonant work to date. Most importantly, the musicians featured in the series are producing excellent, original and compelling work — right in Boston’s own backyard.
When Ali McGuirk takes the stage, her soulful, blues-tinged groove will capture your immediate attention. The singer-songwriter’s 2022 release “Til It’s Gone,” is a “genre mashup of jazz, blues and classic rock,” writes WBUR arts editor Lauren Williams. Since the acclaimed release of her 2016 EP, McGuirk has been nominated for seven Boston Music Awards and a New England Music Award.
McGuirk will be joined by Zak Tojano, a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist that the Boston Globe says, "marries classic finger-style guitar playing to his low slung voice and the foreboding sound of his songs” and The A-Beez, a Boston based music collective with its roots in soul, funk and R&B.
