  • Shelburne Vineyard 6308 Shelburne Road Shelburne, VT, 05482 United States (map)

We are looking forward to welcoming you to the vineyard tonight for an evening of wine & music from Albany, NY's funky horn led boogie professionals Oobleck.

Doors at 5:15, show at 6pm. The New Deal food truck will be onsite serving delicious foods.

$5 tickets, available at the door.

This will be a patio show, not a lawn show, meaning the band will be facing the patio, not the lawn.

Patio and tasting room tables will be on a first come basis. If you prefer to bring a blanket and watch from the lawn, you are more than welcome.

The New Deal food truck will begin serving at 5:15pm.

Here are some helpful details:

- No outside alcohol or non-alcoholic drinks allowed. We will be serving a full selection of wine, beer, cider, non-alcoholic canned drinks and will have a water station. Bringing juice boxes for kids is fine.

- Our address is 6308 Shelburne Road, Shelburne, VT 05482.

- You do not need to bring a physical or digital ticket. All ticket holders are on our attendee list, so simply provide your ID (which matches the name on your order) at the check in table.

- Please carpool or bike.

- Everyone 16+ needs a ticket.

- We hope you have a real good time!

Who is Oobleck?

Oobleck is a horn led, grunged-out original funk band that's been playing around the Capital Region, Hudson Valley, and VT since 2008.  They’re a melee of horns, super heavy drums and bass and your favorite type of chunky guitar riffing that leaves your bum shaking and your face grinning. When we say funk, we actually mean funked-out-afro-rock-alt-dub-whatever.

Balancing razor sharp horn lines with live group improvisation, Oobleck mesmerizes…delving fearlessly where the moment takes them. Pushing the bounds of sound, Oobleck's funk is an unbridled expression of the dark and light: a sextet’s worth of energy and synergy, infusing you with the raw love of music that comes only from playing, dancing and breathing from a place deep down. In the end, it's funk to fuel your soul.

"A reincarnation of James Brown funk, mixed with jazz infusions of oolong-tea and crispy grilled cheese with jalapenos bringing the heat. A funky dance-a-thon. Hot horns, driving percussion, and a steady rhythm to welcome you in from the cold."
