About the Band

Epic in sound and kaleidoscopic in vision, the eclectic Martha’s Vineyard-based six piece Entrain has been thrilling critics and fans alike since its inception. Formed and led by drummer Tom Major in 1993 while on hiatus from touring with rock legend Bo Diddley, Entrain has been blessed with a list of top tier musicians over the years. Tom takes the stage with lead singer/guitar wiz Brian Alex. Often joining them is bassist M’Talewa, saxophonist/percussionist Hilary Noble, saxophonist/accordion Klem Klemik, trombone/keys Lennie Peterson, and percussionist Eggiest Castrillo. Their collective resume includes stints with such diverse players as Bo Diddley, Carly Simon, Chuck Berry, Southside Johnny, James Mongomery, Gary Burton, and Blood, Sweat, and Tears.

Since its inception, Entrain has jammed with the likes of singer/songwriter James Taylor, Grateful Dead alum Bob Weir and rock legend Bo Diddley, and amateur saxophonist and professional leader of the Free World Bill Clinton. Entrain continues to perform as a hugely popular live act throughout the northeast and mid-Atlantic, and in 1995 the band garnered a Boston Music Award for Best Live Show. Before their appearance on the “Cutaway” soundtrack, Entrain’s music was used as the theme song for MTV’s Real World Hawaii. Their t-shirts, bumper stickers and posters have been featured on the popular WB series “Buffy The Vampire Slayer.” Entrain has also starred in and performed a memorable TV commercial for one of the nations leading furniture retailers, which aired during the 1999 Super Bowl.
Entrain’s goal is not just to be the biggest and the best, says Major. “We want to create music that makes people feel good. When we look out from the stage, all we see is smiling faces of all ages and bodies moving. You can’t beat that feeling. At the same time if we can help to promote positive values and lifestyles… great! There’s enough negativity in the world, let’s spread a little joy around and watch how infectious it can be.”

*The Salisbury Beach outdoor concerts are typically rain or shine. In the event of a severe weather cancellation, we will post on our Facebook page
