    Originating from Bethany, CT, Creamery Station is a Connecticut-based band which takes multiple styles of music, such as jam, blues, rock, and bluegrass, and mixes it together into what is guaranteed to be a thrilling live experience.

    It was a little bit intimate, a little bit all-out-jam in Fairfield last Saturday night. Eggy made their return to Fairfield Theatre Company (FTC) Stage One with two sets full of holiday spirit.

    2019 was a big year for Eggy. They released their debut album Watercolor Days in March, and in September they announced becoming a part of the Madison House team. Time will only tell what 2020 has in store, but I can tell you they will be opening for Spafford at Brooklyn Bowl on February 7 and 8. So get there early!
