Join us in the studio with Kraatz Carromato as they record their forthcoming album live with a studio audience!

The music of Kraatz Carromato is principally inspired by the Gitanos (Gypsies or, preferably, Roma) of Spain and Camargue, France. In addition, the Roma carromato – Spanish for caravan – serves as the basis for a broader musical journey that echoes the migration of the Romani people through the Middle East and Europe, connecting Spanish flamenco and rumba with Balkan, Eastern European, and Middle Eastern influences. Performing mostly original compositions drawn from these musical forms, Kraatz Carromato’s songs are songs of migration, of longing for a homeland, of loss, hope, and resilience. The majority of compositions are instrumental, but listeners will also hear new and traditional songs sung in Spanish, Bosnian, English, and the Romani language.

Each ticket will include a copy of the live recording via download link, which will be emailed upon its completion.

As the band is in the studio making a recording, ticket proceeds directly support the album’s creation.



Kraatz Carromato is:
Elijah Kraatz – Band Leader, Guitar & Vocals
Kevin Fink – Violin
Keith Levenson – Percussion
Harry Grabenstein – Rhythm Guitar
Featuring: Rob Morse – Upright Bass



Doors open at 5:30PM for the 6PM performance & 7:30PM for the 8PM performance.

We offer an affordable selection of soda, juice, water and light snacks including drinks from our friends at Taunik. BYOB is optional.

A very limited number of tickets are available per show.

TRS LIVE Presents: Kyle Chadburn & The Earthbound Spirits

Join us for another installment of TRS LIVE with Kyle Chadburn & The Earthbound Spirits as they welcome a studio audience to participate in the live recording of their album, “Free Will Becomes Fate”.

The Earthbound Spirits emerged in 2022 as a studio collective formed to record material written by Vermont singer-songwriter Kyle Chadburn. The band’s songs are an eclectic and organic mixture of soulful, blues-oriented rock and rootsy Americana.

Since their inception, the band has produced three EPs. The first, entitled “No Direction Vol. 1,” was released in October of 2022 and leaned into the Americana side of the band’s sound. Their second EP, “No Direction Vol. 2,” was released in July of 2023 and showcased their more rock-oriented side with a collection of songs featuring the talents of new member Mike Fried on organ and piano. Most recently, the band released “Free Will Becomes Fate” in July of 2024. The songs on this release showcase the soulful, funky blues-rock that the band does so well. The new EP was warmly received by fans and critics alike.

Audience members will be treated to a high-fidelity audio experience as a professional mix is broadcast directly to their ears via wireless headphones.

Each ticket will include a copy of the live album via download link, which will be emailed upon its completion.
