Real Gone Presents: A Boston Round-Up, July 2026

There’s a lot of music pouring out of Boston and its suburbs in the summer of 2026. So much, in fact, that we’re making a return visit in record time! Previous Round Ups have thrown a spotlight onto a wealth of underground acts and independent musicians, and this visit is no exception. You’ll recognise a few familiar names, but hopefully discover a few new ones too, as we dip into a selection of tunes that takes in alternative rock, power pop, garage rock, alt country and singer songwriter’s wares. As always, we hope you enjoy what you hear…

Real Gone Presents: A Boston Round-Up, June 2026

With a lot of great music pouring out of the city over the last couple of months, it’s time to take a return trip to Boston! A couple of very familiar names can be found showcasing new and recent wares, but this is still much a celebration of the newer sounds emerging from that region of the US. We’ve got an unexpected tribute to a Britpop past, a glam infused banger, and a couple of superb indie themed tracks to fill your ears, and more besides. If you find something new to enjoy – and we certainly hope that will be the case – why not drop by and tell us? Happy listening!

Real Gone Presents: A Boston Round-Up, April 2026

It’s been a while since we visited Boston and its suburbs, but there’s been a lot of music pouring out of the neighbourhood in the early part of 2026. This time around, you’ll be reacquainted with a few familiar performers, but iwith the help of some fine Americana sounds and even something a little bluesy alongside the expected bar-room rock vibes. As always, we hope you find something new to enjoy. Better still, we hope you find the time spent digging through these tracks not only pleasurable, but also a lead towards discovering other great sounds.
