Ben Speaks Launch Party scheduled for Friday, September 18

Help Ben Speaks celebrate two exciting new beginnings.

Launching Ben Speaks into colleges through Ben's Challenge, an innovative wellness initiative designed to empower students with practical tools for emotional well-being, resilience, and intentional living.

The Evening Includes:

• Stand-up comedy with Maya Manion

• An intimate Living Room Conversation with Maya and the audience

• Live music and dancing with The Zajac Brothers Band

• Community, connection, and inspiration

Comedian Maya Manion

Is courageously transforming unimaginable loss into hope through laughter, honesty, and connection after losing both her son and her father to suicide. Maya Manion has been doing stand up comedy in New England, since 2008. Maya’s father died by suicide in 2020 and her son, in 2024.  Maya created “Just Bad Days”, an inspiring, funny, tragic and beautiful tribute to her beloved father and son. Hopefully, through talking about mental illness, there will be less suicides and more, “Just Bad Days”. 

The Zajac Brothers Band

The Zajac Brothers Band features songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Tyler Zajac as the voice of the band, along with his brother Matthew Zajac on drums. Together, they collaborate on writing, recording and performing their original music with a versatile group of additional instrumentalists to achieve their modern vintage sound. 

Often paying tribute to their favorite acts of the past, the brothers also enjoy putting their own twist on familiar classics. Expect to hear some old school songs from 50’s, 60’s and 70’s honoring the birth of Rock and Roll.

Where: Veterans of Foreign Wars, Walpole, MA

When: Friday, September 18  •  7 PM - 11 PM

No Static scheduled to perform at THE BLACK BOX - Sep 11

The 10 members of No Static have performed the music of Steely Dan since 2005! Thousands of Dan lovers young and old have experienced the excitement they bring to every performance. Appearing at first-tier venues across New England and beyond, this talented band has earned the admiration and affection of critics and fans alike.

Based in Boston, No Static is one of the top Steely Dan tribute bands in the country. These dedicated musicians specialize in expertly performing the music of Steely Dan, re-creating that amazing bluesy jazz-rock sound invented by Donald Fagen and Walter Becker. As Dan fans know, this is no small feat. The music is complex, spanning genres, requiring precise attention to musical detail, with subtle grooves, sophisticated vocal harmonies, iconic solos, and time and key changes popping up when least expected. Steely Dan is not an easy band to pay tribute to. 

No Static has been nailing it for over 20 years now and their sold-out shows tell the tale. With passion and warmth they cover the breadth of Steely Dan’s great catalog, attracting some of Boston’s finest musicians, and working with guest performers including Steely Dan band members Walt Weiskopf (saxophonist) and Jon Herington (Music Director/guitarist).
