Max Creek! Night#1
CELEBRATING FIFTY YEARS OF MAX CREEK
In those rare instances that a band reaches its fifth decade, it’s usually a result of stardom. It’s easy enough to keep things together when each member has a jet and techs on retainer and the world tour rolls around every few years. But that’s not how Max Creek has done it. In 40+ years Max Creek has been small, big, regionally-huge, medium, and any other size one can think of; they’ve never graced the cover of Rolling Stone, but you’d be hard pressed to find a music fan in the Northeast that hadn’t heard of them.
Well then, how’d they do it?
If you knew Max Creek you’d answer simply, “they just did.” Creek lacks pretense; there is no hip style or genre-title that can define them. From the beginning they’ve mixed anything they liked—rock, country, reggae, soul, jazz, calypso—in with their own great songs and it’s all just come out sounding like Creek. As such they’ve never been the hot item in the flavor-of-the-year club yet they’ve also never gone out of style. Moreover, Creek exudes confidence but lacks ego; each member is an incredible musician but that’s never been what it was about.
But that is all things Creek is not, and what Creek is is far more important. The band is certainly joyous, and their stage is full of smiles and laughter, both during and between songs. All one has to do is glance into the crowd to see that the feeling is contagious. Creek is also much more engaging than the average band, sculpting lengthy shows on-the-fly from their 200+ song catalog with rockers, ballads, deep jams and crowd sing-alongs all tucked into their perfect places. And Creek is, most definitely, a family. 40-odd years in, the audience is a multi-generational stew; it’s not uncommon to witness old-school Creek Freeks getting down with their teenage (or older!) kids.
Creek itself is multigenerational. Though the “front line” of guitarist Scott Murawski, keyboardist Mark Mercier and bassist John Rider has remained intact since the mid-70s, the current drums and percussion team of Bill Carbone and Jamemurrell Stanley weren’t even born when Max Creek was founded.

May 13th– Fire Truck Show & First Responders Day– This event will give visitors the opportunity to get up close and personal with all aspects of the firefighting industry. During your visit you will also learn more about the Fire Truck Museum’s collection (their museum is at the Connecticut Trolley Museum!) along with local first responders’ equipment and vehicles. Meet first responders and learn what their job entails. This event is a great opportunity to support, honor and thank first responders for the difficult job they do every day. Don’t miss your opportunity to sit in real fire trucks, try on firefighter’s turnout gear, and take home a souvenir kid’s fire fighter hat. Kids will enjoy crafts and hands-on activities! Additionally, take a trolley ride on one of the Museum’s antique trolleys, navigate through the Visitors Center packed full of historic trolleys and dress up as a junior motorman at the imagination station. The Museum will be open 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM with first responders and equipment activities and demonstrations from 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM. Admission prices are $13 for ages over 2. Museum Members are half off admission and ages under 2 are free.
