    Full Moon Sound Bath

    Burlington · The Sanctuary for Healing & Liberation, 1 Mill St

    Honoring the full moon in Taurus, also known as the Beaver Moon, this immersive sound bath offers a space to meet yourself exactly as you are. Large planetary gongs create a full-body listening journey, joined by Tibetan and crystal bowls and other resonant instruments. The vibrations can gently harmonize mismatched patterns in body, spirit, or energy, and there is nothing you need to accomplish or figure out. Simply listen and notice what arises, whether deep rest, emotion, imagery, physical sensation, a sense of spaciousness, or moments of insight. The experience centers on gong-led sound crafted for deep release, with guided relaxation to quiet the mind and settle the body. Layered soundscapes and powerful tones support focus and restoration, and many people leave feeling clearer, calmer, and more connected to themselves.

    The Wet Ones and more

    Burlington · Foam Brewers, 112 Lake St

    A Halloween showcase from Foam Presents features The Wet Ones, Bloodshot Bill, and Zombeat and Die. Bloodshot Bill performs solo with raw rockabilly grit, pairing a gravel-throated voice with agile, vintage-inspired guitar work. Known as the "Montreal Madman," he has toured throughout North America, Europe, and Japan, with music featured in campaigns for KFC, Mercedes, Dodge, and Chrysler. Honors include the Ameripolitan Rockabilly Male of the Year award and recognition among Vintage Rock magazine’s top eight rockin guitarists. John Waters once described him as "Roy Orbison with a head injury." The Wet Ones, appearing with dancers, are a Vermont power trio devoted to original surf instrumentals played fast and loud. Formed in 2018, they issued Tombstoning in 2019, then The Monster of Jungle Island, which doubles as the soundtrack to their zero-budget short B-horror film shot on Vermont’s Burton Island, with more music on the way. Zombeat and Die brings a haunted vibe as the spookiest DJ in town. This all-ages event offers free parking, admission is $15, and costumes are encouraged.

    Pink Talking Fish

    South Burlington · Higher Ground, 1214 Williston Rd

    Pink Talking Fish is a hybrid tribute that blends the music of Pink Floyd, Talking Heads, and Phish into a cohesive, story-like concert experience. It channels the sweeping emotion associated with Pink Floyd, the layered, danceable rhythms of Talking Heads, and the playful, shape-shifting compositions of Phish, all woven into a single show that celebrates the communities these bands have inspired. The lineup features Eric Gould on bass, Richard James or Stephen Learson on keyboards, Zack Burwick on drums, and Cal Kehoe on guitar, musicians united by a deep love for these influential catalogs and a desire to present them in a fresh way. Discovering musical connections is part of the fun, whether it is sliding On The Run into the heart of You Enjoy Myself, tucking Sand into the groove of Slippery People, or crafting medleys that move from Run Like Hell to Making Flippy Floppy to Piper and back again, as well as linking Mike’s Song with Have a Cigar, Once in a Lifetime, and Weekapaug Groove. The concept keeps evolving, the momentum stays high, and every performance offers a new twist, so no two shows are alike.
