SUMMARY:Nick Bosse at Rivermill Tavern
DESCRIPTION:Nick Bosse at Rivermill Tavern brings one of southeastern Connecticut’s established country performers to Jewett City on Friday\, August 14\, for an early-evening show from 6 to 8 p.m. The North Stonington singer-songwriter has built a strong regional following with a sound rooted in traditional country\, outlaw country\, Southern rock and bluegrass. \nThe performance lands at the relatively new Rivermill Tavern\, a neighborhood restaurant and bar at 47 Main Street in Jewett City. The tavern combines pizza and pub food with a full bar\, pool table\, karaoke and a growing schedule of weekend live music. \nFor Bosse\, it’s one stop in a particularly busy August. His current schedule has him playing vineyards\, festivals\, community concerts\, Mohegan Sun and other venues across Connecticut and Rhode Island\, both on his own and with his full band\, The Northern Roots. His official tour schedule confirms the August 14 Rivermill performance at 6 p.m. \nAbout Nick Bosse\nBosse is a North Stonington native whose music leans toward the grittier side of country rather than polished country-pop. \nHis influences stretch through classic country\, bluegrass\, Southern rock and contemporary Americana. Connecticut tourism describes his sound as drawing inspiration from artists ranging from Merle Haggard to Tyler Childers\, with an emphasis on storytelling and traditional country songwriting. (CTvisit) \nHe also performs with Nick Bosse & The Northern Roots\, a band he formed with drummer John Spaulding in 2014. Over the years\, the group has incorporated upright bass\, fiddle\, pedal steel\, banjo\, harmonica and electric guitar\, giving Bosse considerably more room to move between straight country\, bluegrass and Southern rock. (Wailing City) \nThat traditional streak comes through in Bosse’s own description of his music. He points to the older country songs about working people\, heartbreak and hard living as the foundation of what he does today. \n“What Happened to Country”\nThe song most closely associated with Bosse is “What Happened to Country\,” released in 2021. \nThe track helped expand his audience well beyond the local club circuit. Earlier reports had the single passing 800\,000 streams\, while Connecticut’s tourism office reported in August 2026 that it has now surpassed 2 million streams. \nBosse has since continued recording and performing while becoming a familiar name on southeastern Connecticut stages. His schedule has included appearances at Mohegan Sun and other regional venues\, and in 2025 he opened for country singer Randy Houser in Connecticut. \nFor the Rivermill show\, the billing is simply Nick Bosse\, rather than Nick Bosse & The Northern Roots\, indicating this is one of his smaller-format performances rather than a full-band concert. His official schedule makes the same distinction between this appearance and Northern Roots shows scheduled elsewhere that weekend. \nAn Early Friday Night at Rivermill Tavern\nRivermill Tavern opened in Jewett City in late 2025 and has quickly established itself as a casual neighborhood restaurant and bar. \nThe menu is built largely around pizza and familiar pub food\, including wings\, burgers\, grinders and appetizers\, alongside a full bar. Pizza is particularly prominent\, with specialty pies including chicken bacon ranch\, Buffalo chicken\, meat lovers and BBQ chicken. \nThe atmosphere is closer to a neighborhood tavern than a formal concert venue. There are TVs\, a jukebox and pool table\, and entertainment has become part of the weekly schedule with karaoke and live music. \nThat should make Bosse’s 6 p.m. start especially easy to turn into a Friday night dinner rather than requiring a separate late-night concert trip. Grab a table\, order something\, and the music is already underway. \nA Busy Weekend for Nick Bosse\nAnyone who misses the Jewett City appearance has several other opportunities to catch Bosse around the CT Beacon coverage area. \nThe following evening\, August 15\, Nick Bosse & The Northern Roots perform at Preston Ridge Vineyard. On Sunday\, Bosse heads to Westerly for a 1 p.m. appearance at the Windjammer Surf Bar. Later in August\, the full band is scheduled for Mystic Seaport Museum\, the Hamburg Fair\, Waterford Beach Park\, the Wolf Den and the Charlestown Rathskeller. \nThe Rivermill show is the more stripped-down option: two hours on a Friday evening in a small local tavern\, with one of the region’s busiest country singers just a few feet away. \nEvent Details\nDate: Friday\, August 14\, 2026 \nTime: 6:00–8:00 p.m. \nPerformer: Nick Bosse \nLocation: Rivermill Tavern \nAddress: 47 Main Street\, Jewett City\, CT 06351 \nMusic: Country\, outlaw country\, bluegrass and Southern rock \nFood & Drinks: Full restaurant and bar service available \nVenue Phone: (860) 591-1022 \n  \n\n
