Chad Perrone w/ Cahill
City Winery Boston Presents Chad Perrone w/ Cahill Live on Saturday, December 5th at 7:30pm
Chad Perrone played his first show as a singer-songwriter in March 1998 at the Sad Cafe in Plaistow, New Hampshire, in front of about seventy-five friends, family, and classmates. That same year he founded the band Averi at Suffolk University in Boston. Over the next several years Averi became a fixture of the Boston scene. The band headlined the Paradise and the Avalon, shared bills with Matchbox Twenty, the Goo Goo Dolls, Guster, and Barenaked Ladies, and earned several Boston Music Award nominations along the way.
In 2006 Chad went solo, partly to give the songs more room. His debut, Used to Dream, led to more BMA nominations, including Outstanding Male Singer/Songwriter. It was followed by Wake, Kaleidoscope, Release, the Even EP, and, most recently, What Would I Leave You With (2024). Kaleidoscope was funded by fans through a PledgeMusic campaign that passed its goal. It’s a small detail, but it says a lot about the loyal audience he has built. The Boston Phoenix praised his “love stories with deep hooks” and “graceful melodies in a pleasing, high voice,” and online critics have called him one of independent music’s best-kept secrets.
His newer songs are quieter and more reflective, and they’re written from the far side of some hard years. Today Chad plays a handful of select shows each year, mostly intimate rooms where the songs have space to breathe.

Twenty-five years ago Robert Antonelli and Scott O’Brien were dancing on their parents’ patios, lip-syncing to Michael Jackson, dreaming of performing. These days their dreams are similar but the music is their own. Cahill began performing on the streets of Harvard Square, slowly building their repertoire in front of a constantly changing landscape of passing pedestrians. They graduated to touring the college circuit in 2007 after the release of their sophomore album “At The Seams.”
Six years and over 200 colleges later, the acoustic duo is continuing their musical growth with the release of their fourth studio album, “The Way It Should Be.” This self-produced, recorded, and engineered project is a true testament to the deep history these two musicians share. Their fan base reaches all across the country thanks to their permanent residency in the world famous Faneuil Hall Street Performers Program in Boston.
Their songs have been featured on MTV, E!, NBC, and they debuted at #51 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter chart during this latest release. In the age of downloading, the band has also found success with two viral hits on Pandora.
