We are excited to present an incredible lineup of varied and accomplished acts at Club Sandwich for the 2023 season.

Most are acts that are selling out much larger venues and who you won't see anywhere else in this area, but we are bringing them to the Lakes Region! So give someone new a chance and you won't be disappointed! Our 2023 guest lineup is completely booked.
Club Sandwich is BYOB!

VANCE GILBERT
​
“If Joni Mitchell and Richie Havens had a love child, with Rodney Dangerfield as the midwife, the results might have been something close to the great Vance Gilbert.” As the above quote from Richmond Magazine suggests, Vance Gilbert defies stereotypes. It’s little wonder then that he also exceeds expectations. In this case, those two qualities go hand in hand.

KATIE O'CONNELL
​
Katie O'Connell has been a repeated sell out at Club Sandwich, so she's back again! Katie is a singer, poet, yogi, and nature girl who is as happy to jam around a campfire as she is to be up on the stage. Katie grew up right here in little Sandwich, NH, singing her way through local musicals, at pubs in Ireland while living overseas, performing with the Lakes Region Music Festival, and recording and performing with her band The Starlight Honeys. Katie plays guitar, Irish penny whistle, and is known to bang on a hand drum, but her principal instrument has always been her voice, once described by a fan as "smooth dark chocolate," versatile enough to cover Joni Mitchell, Kate Wolf, Gillian Welch, and Bob Dylan all in one set, so come on out for an evening of your favorites. Katie will be joined with fellow Starlight Honeys buddy, Roger Sorlien.

ELLIS PAUL
​
Ellis Paul is a troubadour, a singer/songwriter, a folky, and a storyteller — all are fair labels for this artist, but they do not quite suffice. However, the tattoo of Woody Guthrie worn proudly on his arm is a good starting place from which to grasp Ellis Paul, for it is from the Woody Guthrie tradition that he hails, and Maine as well. Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, and James Taylor are also listed among his influences, and their spirits seem to occasionally grace his work. With an acoustic guitar in hand, he weaves intimate, provocative, and romantic tales of lives that were obviously witnessed by a most-talented voyeur.

AN EVENING WITH AMERICA'S MASTER MENTALIST JON STETSON
​
A sellout each time he's been here, Jon Stetson is not to be missed! Mind Reading has never been this much fun! Jon Stetson was the inspiration for the CBS hit television series “The Mentalist”.
​
Stetson blends the art of Mystery with the study of Psychology, the predictability of human nature and the power of intuition, Imaginations are wowed, stretched and captured, as thoughts are revealed and minds are being read, with Jon's intriguing games of mind to mind contact. The Stetson Experience is intelligent, interactive, sophisticated fun. Along with hundreds of corporate, casino, and celebrity appearances, Jon has performed for five U.S. Presidents, The King of Sweden, The Royal Family of Monaco, and has appeared on several major Television Networks.

THE EVERLY SET
​
In 1957, teens Phil and Don Everly supercharged the vocal sound of Rock’n’Roll with “Bye Bye Love” and “Wake Up Little Susie”, unleashing the sparkling vocal harmonies that would influence The Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, The Beach Boys, The Hollies, The Eagles, Peter Paul & Mary, and the Bee Gees. Now, six decades later, two acclaimed singer-songwriters with a mind-bending three-decade age difference combine millennial pluck with baby-boomer sass to present The Everly Set: Sean Altman & Jack Skuller Celebrate The Everly Brothers, featuring Bye Bye Love, Wake Up Little Susie, Cathy’s Clown, All I Have To Do Is Dream, When Will I Be Loved, Crying In The Rain, Love Hurts, Bird Dog, Claudette, Walk Right Back, and more hits and rarities in concert.
And, because John performed WITH The Everly Brothers, you may see John and The Everly Set do a little something together!

GUY DAVIS
​
Guy Davis is a two-time, back-to-back Grammy nominee for Best Traditional Blues, a musician, Actor, Author, and Songwriter. Guy uses a blend of Roots, Blues, Folk, Rock, Rap, Spoken Word, and World Music to comment on, and address the frustrations of social injustice, touching on historical events, and common life struggles. His background in theater is pronounced through the lyrical storytelling of songs “God’s Gonna Make Things Over” about the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, “Welcome to My World”, and “Got Your Letter In My Pocket”. His storytelling is sometimes painful, deep, and real, an earthy contrast to modern-day commercial music, meant to create thought, underlined by gentle tones from his guitar or banjo fingerpicking.

JIM KWESKIN
​
Jim Kweskin is the founder of the legendary 1960s Jim Kweskin Jug Band with Fritz Richmond, Geoff Muldaur, Maria Muldaur, Mel Lyman and Bruno Wolfe. During the five years they were together, they successfully transformed the sounds of pre-World War II rural music into a springboard for their good-humored performances. Their imitators were legion, including a San Francisco jug band that became the Grateful Dead, a Los Angeles jug band that became the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and a New York jug band that became the Lovin' Spoonful. No other group attained their unique blend of youthful energy and antiquarian expertise, tight musicianship, loose camaraderie, and infectious swing.
