May, mellow month, mellow (and not so mellow) New England live music

Andy Voelker; Mad Monkfish late shows

“Oh, baby/When I see your face/Mellow as the month of May….” Carole King once sang. She understand the coolness of May as few others could. May is a time to chill out. We can catch our breath after all that shoveling and all of that April weather fickleness. We can also start making summer plans, the beach, BBQ, whatnot. We can also enjoy this month while mellowing out or rockin’ and rollin’ to some chill and not so chill New England live music. Below are some offerings to make this a May to remember.
