Vern’s Instrumental Extravaganza

Vern’s Instrumental Extravaganza is a dynamic 4 piece band that plays a mesmerizing hybrid of genres including prog rock, fusion and blues. Fronted by Keene native Todd Tousley who cut his chops with the local band Fat Tuesday along with fellow guitarist Aaron Wallace of Leominster, MA. Rounding out the ensemble are Jesse Alibozek, a multi-instrumentalist from Marlborough, NH on bass and the hard-hitting Frank Evans of Winchendon, MA on the drums.

Talented indie-rock singer/songwriter Ian Galipeau opens the show with his solo performance. Ian is based in Keene and has been performing across New England since 2010, sharing the stage with national acts including Arc Iris and Dietrich Strauss. He released two sister-EPs, titled Raze/Raise in 2018 and followed up with a full-length album Like We Were Never Here At All in 2022.
