Teague Alexy has been a regular performer at Homegrown since 2001. His band the Common Thread features sweet vocal harmonies, a dynamic fluctuation of mellow to menacing rhythms, and the ability to build anticipation and make a big splash. For example, Alexy closed out the 2018 Homegrown with a performance that culminated in the surprise smashing of a ceremonial guitar … on a Sunday afternoon. Along with longtime collaborators Tyler Dubla on percussion and Brian Wells on bass, the full band adds Jacob Mahon on guitar, Rob Jones on keys and Eric Bong on percussion, who promise to enrich Alexy’s often folksy, Americana original songs.
