Community Calendar

The Potboilers is an immersive, collaborative, spontaneous, multi-genre musical experience, whose motto is: 'Groove plus melody equals joy.’

The band is Heather Pierson, keys and vocals; Rafe Matregrano, guitar and vocals; Shawn Nadeau, bass; Craig Bryan, drums.

Heather Pierson is a nationally touring singer/songwriter whose songs and musicianship embody joy, playfulness, and a desire to share from the heart.

Rafe Matregrano is a multi-instrumentalist extraordinaire whose wise-beyond-his-years chops, unique approach and cheerfulness light up the stage.

Bassist Shawn Nadeau brings a rock-solid thump and nearly two decades of performing experience to every ensemble, informed by a wide spectrum of unique rhythmic and melodic sensibilities ranging from rockabilly to reggae to jazz.

Drummer Craig Bryan's early career consisted of hard rock and the Central Jersey Symphony Orchestra while still in high school. This early musical dichotomy was just the beginning of a very diverse career that included a 3 year stint with Cuban percussionist and singer Roberto Olivero while living in Arizona.

Together, these four craft a refreshing sound through original compositions and a fresh take on well-known classics.

Scaling your business means increasing revenue while also increasing efficiency.

What does your business need to scale?

More employees?
Increased efficiency through new systems or equipment?
Or more robust or seamless distribution through clearer procedures?
Join facilitator, Tara Servilio, in this interactive 4-part workshop series to identify your specific needs to scale, evaluate your options, develop a plan to get it done, and discover new tools for the future.
