The Gallerist

The Gallerist is a rock band based on the North Shore of Boston with a sound that has been compared to the likes of Wilco, My Morning Jacket, Jason Isbell and On the Beach era Neil Young. Originally born there, the Gallerist was described as Philadelphia's "best kept secret" (WXPN's the Key) before building a solid following and sharing the stage with the likes of Laura Marling and Ron Gallo. Since establishing themselves in the Boston area in 2018, the three-piece has been making a name for themselves, playing all around the city, the North Shore and beyond. With two releases to their name so far, the Gallerist’s current lineup, featuring Mike Collins on guitar and lead vocals, Jim Chekos on bass and Max Monaco on drums, released their third extended play, Great Escape, in May, a record that sees the band exploring new sonic territory and expanding their reach beyond anything they’ve put to tape thus far.
