“Southern charm and gypsy blood. Wistful musings and joie de vivre. Poise and self-effacement. A live performance not to be missed. Come a stranger, leave a disciple,” says Last.FM of Rebecca Loebe.

RocknReel Magazine won’t be surprised when Abi Tapia gets snapped up by a major record label:
“(Tapia’s) new album, The Beauty in The Ruin, a mature collection exploring themes of sadness and frustration, is full of planes, trains, automobiles and Greyhound buses - travellin’ light, travellin’ hard. Difficult to believe she hasn’t been picked up by on of Nashville’s majors.”

Rebecca Loebe and Abi Tapia will take The Window starting at 8 PM.

Catch them while you can at our quaint venue.
Five bucks at the door.

Lauren Melle, a local favorite, is back in The Mission Window for a solo show. She was one of the fantastic musicians who played WordxWord’s all female bill last summer.

Come on out!

Hailing from Providence, Rhode Island Roz Raskin along with Casey Belisle and Justin Foster (who are the Rice Cakes part of the deal) will be back in the Mission Window with their energentic live show.

Snap, Crackle, but they don’t play Pop. The thing is, even the members of the band aren’t keen ascribing a “sound” to themselves.  But you can come up with your own assessment … Give a Listen.

$5 cover.

Nominated for  “Best Folk Act” at the 2009 Boston Music Awards, Audrey Ryan, perhaps tongue-in-cheek, describes her sound as “baby-making music.”

Among the instruments she’ll have in the Mission Window to create this  — an electric Japanese axe or a vintage Gibson acoustic, a retro 80’s era Casio keyboard, and an accordion.

Go ahead, you can put yourself in the mood in advance of the show.

Also appearing with Audrey is Richard Julian who Entertainment Weekly describes as a New Yorker who “tosses off self-addressed put-downs with the ease of the young Springsteen during his acoustic Jersey-boy period.”

You’re likely going to be looking for a place to un-wind after all the holiday-related family fun! So we are bringing the man of Mission’s open-mic to the Mission Window for a solo show.

You can give a listen to him here.

Come catch him, $5 at the door.

Fa, la, la, la, la along with Andy and Friends who are coming to The Mission Window for this special holiday concert.

As always, there will wine, many fine beers, and lots and lots of good cheer.

$5 cover.

We don’t have a clock but we will most certainly be counting down the seconds leading up to 2010.

Join us for Dinner and music from Justin Allen.

We’ll have music and a $50 four course meal - seatings at 6:30 PM and 8:30 PM - which includes a glass of our sparkling Cava Brut.

We are also serving our regular menu — until midnight, as usual!!

(Seating is limited, so advanced reservations are strongly suggested. E-mail missionbarandtapas (at) gmail.com for reservations. )

Join us after dinner –  say around 10:30 –  if you are looking for a cool place to hang and to ring in the next decade.

Mia Dyson, with her band

Samantha Farrell opening - 8 P.M. - $8 in advance, e-mail missionbarandtapas (at) gmail.com or stop by Mission. $10 at the door.

ADVANCED TICKETS ARE STRONGLY ENCOURAGED FOR THIS SHOW.

Over the past year, Mia Dyson - the BluesRock singer/songwriter goddess from down under - and Mission have become great pals.

We were among the first rooms she played in the United States after rocking for crowds like this in Australia.

Mia is moving to L.A. come February.
Would you really want to miss what could be her last show in The Mission Window? Yeah, we didn’t think so.

She’ll likely start hammering out tunes — with her band!! — around 9. But the show starts with Samantha Farrell.

Samantha - who sound is blues/folk rock/soul - is a sparkling young singer-songwriter who combines raw and emotional melodies with poetic lyrics.

Give a listen

Latin rhythms, call-and-response hollering, and donkey jawbone rattling will likely have you on your feet when the David Wax Museum makes its debut in The Mission Window.

The quartet brings with it a lively fusion of traditional Mexican and American folk music as well as heart-wrenching harmonies, poignant lyrics, and a rooted Americana sound.

Bring your dancing shoes and $5.

Give a look-see or a listen.

Heather Maloney warms things up for the Museum crew.

On Cozy Razor’s Edge, her latest release, Heather integrates music and awareness, creativity and presence; the intention to dance along the line between sound and silence.
She’ll be in The Window beginning at 8 PM.

With lyrics that are acutely poetic, darkly playful, and, at times, just plain quirky Jason Myles Goss will play tunes from his latest release, A Plea for Dreamland. As the title suggests, these songs evoke a feeling of somewhere else — the ballroom of a seaside hotel, a bus station in Meridian, Mississippi, or a dingy car on the Coney Island Wonder Wheel. Let’s see where Jason takes us during his second appearance in the Mission Window.

Jake Hill starts things off @ 8 p.m. http://www.myspace.com/jakehillsings
