Dylan Patrick Ward and the Loveable Losers with OH DAD

Bellows Falls' own Dylan Patrick Ward is a folk misfit for our absurd times. Equal parts compassionate and irreverent, his songs use catchy melodies and blunt, storytelling lyricism to weave tales of outcasts, oddballs, and people on the brink. His blend of folk-balladry and indie-rock have earned him comparisons to the Mountain Goats, John Prine, Paul Baribeau, and Loudon Wainwright. Since arriving on the scene he’s become increasingly respected in the worlds of both folk and indie music, sharing the stage with acts like Bill Callahan, Peter Mulvey, Jeffrey Lewis, Guy Davis, Michael Jumpshot Touchdown Pass, and others. Dylan has lately teamed up with multi-instrumentalists Nate Goyette and Johnny Gifford to form Dylan Patrick Ward and the Loveable Losers. Nate and Johnny trade off between drums, bass, keys, saxophone, and trombone, creating a mess of sonic delights. Dylan has two albums slated for release in 2024. One with the Loveable Losers called The Porch Collapses, produced by Johnny Gifford, and a solo-effort called Ne'er-Do-Wells, produced by Ian Galipeau.OH DAD, the alias of a sad boi from Springfield, Vermont, will open. He makes music for rainy days and riding your moped into the sunset.  A little punk, a little folk — but not either.Tickets for this Sunday, October 1, 2023, 3:00 PM matinee are $15 suggested, or $10 accepted, or $20 for a halo... 100% goes to the performers. Limited seating; the event will be recorded and filmed. Stage 33 Live is at 33 Bridge Street in Bellows Falls, Vermont.# # #dylanpatrickward.com
