SUMMARY:Lea Marra & The River Boys / Upstream Drifters
DESCRIPTION:Lea Marra & The River Boys\n\nLea Marra and The River Boys brin
 g high energy “folkgrass” to the stage with grassy licks\, strong voca
 ls\, and heartfelt lyrics. Based in Cleveland\, this five-person bluegrass
 y jam band portrays the life of everyday folks in rust belt midwest with c
 atchy\, singable melodies and foot-stomping tempos. It is nearly impossibl
 e to listen to Lea Marra and The River Boys without dancing.\n\n\nFrontwom
 an Lea Marra has been writing and performing music since the age of ten. I
 nfluenced musically by the Cranberries\, Sierra Ferrell\, Sixpence None Th
 e Richer\, The Chicks\, and Dolly Parton\, Marra notes that the content fo
 r her songwriting inspiration comes from nature\, life experiences and rel
 ationships. They released their first album titled Ace of Cups in March\, 
 2024\, and perform prolifically both locally and regionally.\n\nUpstream D
 rifters \n\nDubbed “pure magic” by fans\, folk-roots band Upstream Dri
 fters uses storytelling and song painting to elevate everyday life in nort
 heast Ohio. Blending traditional folk instruments like old-time banjo\, gu
 itar\, and mandolin with drums\, synth and electric bass\, the Upstream Dr
 ifters conjure soundscapes from dreamy to driving. With textured rhythms a
 nd lyrical melodies\, their intentional\, animated performances attract au
 diences of all ages. In 2025 they released both an EP Carried Along as wel
 l as their first full-length album. On WKSU’s The Shuffle\, Amanda Rabin
 owitz describes the music as “raw\, rugged… with infectious funky groo
 ves.”\n\nGet to the show early for Dinner and Drinks in The Rialto Livin
