Green Tea with Glaucoma Suspect

Celebrate 25 years of Green Tea — one of the area’s most beloved jam bands — this Saturday at The Social Bar & Kitchen! Joined by local favorites Glaucoma Suspect, this night promises high-energy performances, great food, and the best craft beer lineup in town. Don’t miss this milestone show — grab your friends and make it a night to remember! Green Tea Based out of Rhode Island, Green Tea has been a stalwart of the Southern New England jam/rock scene for more than two decades. The six-piece lineup features dual guitars, keys, bass, drums and vocals, weaving melody-driven songwriting with roots in the Garcia/Hunter and Allman Brothers traditions while retaining a fresh, original edge.  Their catalog of five studio albums (including The Healing, Steep, and Sinners & Saints) and their tight live performances have earned them a loyal following in the region.  With a strong sense of groove and harmony, Green Tea balances jam-band improvisation with structured songs, making them a go-to for fans looking for both thoughtful tunes and live energy. Glaucoma Suspect Hailing from the Westerly area is Glaucoma Suspect, an eight-piece band rooted in reggae, roots-rock and groove-based music. They emphasize positive vibes, respect for origins, and a blend of instrumental richness (horns/keys/guitar) that supports both message and dance-floor energy.  Their repertoire covers “all things roots rock reggae and in between,” showing flexibility and a commitment to genre‐crossing while remaining true to reggae’s spirit. 8pm start / $15 at the door
