Toby McAllister , Ben Briggs, and Nate Spencer formed a band in 1999, while still in junior high school. After years of local shows and Battle of Bands competitions they added Patrick O’Connell on guitar and vocals and Marty McMorrow on synthesizer and vocals. The band changed their name to Sparks the Rescue and started shedding its skate punk aesthetic—gaining popularity and playing shows throughout New England. Alex Roy was added as main vocalist in 2006, and eventually got signed to Fearless Records. They toured constantly from 2009-2014. Notably participating in the Vans Warped Tour 2010 and touring Europe and the UK with All American Rejects. 2026 finds them releasing new music and getting back out on the road.

Sponsored in part by The Proper Pig, North Atlantic Seed Company, MIFF29, the City of Waterville, Central Maine Motors Chevrolet, and KSW Federal Credit Union.

We hold space on our stage, our screens, and our gallery walls, in our studios, and at our community events and programs to present diverse stories, identities, and lived experiences in real and authentic ways.
