KINGFIELD — Experience an evening of that certain kind of magic at the Kingfield POPS, June 25, at Kennedy Farm on Route 142 in Kingfield with gates opening at 4:30 p.m.

Tickets are $25 in advance or $30 at the agate and as always, youth 17 and under are admitted free. Tickets can be purchased at Tranten’s stores in Kingfield or Farmington; Skowhegan Savings Bank locations in Kingfield, Stratton, Rangeley, Phillips or Farmington; or on the POPS website. 

When The Mallett Brothers Band takes the Kingfield POPS stage Saturday, it will not be the boys’ first time playing in front of an orchestra and it’s an experience they are looking forward to repeating.

They have a regular gig at the Yarmouth Clam Festival but last summer TMBB played with the Portland Symphony Orchestra in celebration of the festival’s 50th year. Now the band will co-headline and collaborate with the Bangor Symphony Orchestra for the first time in a debut appearance at the 14th annual Kingfield POPS.

TMBB will share stage time with The Fogcutters, Ghost of Paul Revere and David Mallett, the father of TMBB frontmen Will and Luke Mallett. “Having my dad on the bill is just icing on the cake,” Luke said.

Luke says there is no describing playing in front of an orchestra, “As a band, we are used to the feel of the stage and the feel of the music. Adding an orchestra to the mix is like adding 800 horsepower to whatever you’re driving. It is such a cool feeling,” he said.

Proof that TMBB is not boxed into a neat genre is found on each of the four albums they have produced. Take Americana, county, rock ‘n’ roll and alternative country sounds; mix in a fusion of guitars, fiddle, mandolin, dobro and drums; add in vocals that give feeling to lyrics about life, love and a truck or two and you get TMBB. The band’s latest album, “Lights Along the River,” was named “Best Album of 2015” by bluecollarsongwriting.com. The band was also crowned Best Band in New England at the 2014 New England Music Awards.

The boys have close ties with the mountains, playing frequently in Rangeley and at Sugarloaf. When asked what draws the band to the area again and again, Luke explained, “It is like you are at the end of the earth in the western mountains. Those mountains contain a certain kind of magic for us.”
