Another Tequila Sunrise at the Rathskeller

Another Tequila Sunrise at the Rathskeller brings the music of the Eagles to Charlestown on Friday, August 14, for three hours of classic rock under the summer sky. The New England-based tribute band takes the stage from 8 to 11 p.m., performing everything from laid-back country rock and harmony-driven ballads to the guitar-heavy songs that defined the Eagles’ later years.

This isn’t a tribute built around costumes or impersonation. Another Tequila Sunrise has been performing the Eagles’ catalog since 2001, concentrating on the details that made the original band distinctive: layered vocal harmonies, intertwined guitars and arrangements that can move from the quiet opening of “Desperado” to the unmistakable guitar finale of “Hotel California.” The band’s repertoire also reaches beyond the Eagles into solo material from Don Henley, Glenn Frey and Joe Walsh.

The Charlestown Rathskeller gives the show a fitting setting. Tucked into the woods along Old Coach Road, the historic tavern combines outdoor music with food, drinks, fire pits and lawn games. Come early for dinner, then settle in for a Friday night of songs that helped define the sound of 1970s American rock.

About Another Tequila Sunrise

Another Tequila Sunrise is a New England-based Eagles tribute that has been performing since 2001 and has toured throughout the country. Rather than concentrating on a single period of the Eagles, the group covers the band’s evolution from early Southern California country rock through its arena-sized rock years.

The seven-member lineup is structured to reproduce the instrumental and vocal layers of an Eagles concert. The current group includes John Robert Murphy handling the Don Henley vocal role, Jeff Griffith on guitar and vocals in the Glenn Frey role, Bryan Picher performing Joe Walsh’s guitar parts, Jeremy Beek covering the Don Felder and Steuart Smith guitar work, John Baptista on bass and vocals, Denis Brunelle on keyboards, guitar and vocals, and Steve Brodi on drums and vocals.

There’s considerable experience behind those parts. Murphy spent years fronting a nationally touring Journey tribute and has performed with Journey and Santana founding member Gregg Rolie. Griffith studied music at UMass Lowell along with classes at Juilliard and New England Conservatory, while Picher specializes in reproducing the details of Joe Walsh’s distinctive guitar style.

What You’ll Hear

The Eagles built a catalog broad enough that an evening devoted to their music doesn’t stay in one gear for long.

Another Tequila Sunrise’s repertoire includes the country-rock sound of “Take It Easy,” “Lyin’ Eyes” and “Peaceful Easy Feeling,” harmony-rich ballads such as “Desperado,” “Wasted Time” and “Best of My Love,” and harder-edged tracks including “Victim of Love” and “Hotel California.”

The band also performs deeper album cuts and music from the Eagles members’ solo careers, including material from Don Henley, Glenn Frey and Joe Walsh. Some performances have even featured complete Eagles albums, reflecting how deeply the group reaches into the catalog.

That should make the Rathskeller show more than a quick run through a dozen obvious hits. Casual Eagles fans will know plenty of the songs, while people who wore out copies of Desperado, One of These Nights or Hotel California should find plenty tucked into the set for them, too.

An Outdoor Night at the Rathskeller

The Charlestown Rathskeller’s wooded property gives this concert a very different feel from seeing an Eagles tribute inside a theater.

Guests can arrive early for dinner and drinks, spend some time around the outdoor grounds and stay for the concert from 8 to 11 p.m. The property includes outdoor seating, fire pits and lawn games, making it easy to turn the performance into an entire Friday night out rather than arriving just before the first song.

Tickets

Advance admission is $20 plus Eventbrite fees.

Tickets will also be available at the door for $25, subject to availability.

With a three-hour performance scheduled, arriving early also leaves time for dinner before the band begins.
