Waltham’s Alan Arena has been writing songs since 1978.  At seventeen, he didn’t even know his first song “Doing 110 at 3AM” was influenced by Chuck Berry or the blues! In 1994, Alan formed his first blues band - Watch City Blues.  Watch City plays a mix of Alan's original's songs, a mix of up-tempo contemporary/classic blues, and Americana. 

Alan's first cd "Where's the Rainbow" became Limelight Magazine’s Top 10 Solo Artist Album of the Decade.  His new album "Fortune Wheel" is getting local radio airplay, and some great press!



Dine Aid Waltham is a fundraising effort led by the Charles River Museum of Industry and Innovation to support independent Waltham restaurants and their employees who are under extreme financial stress due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Inspired by a tradition of supporting causes through music, the Museum is committing its three Spring 2021 concert series to help the local restaurant community. 

One third of all the funds contributed by donors and sponsors via the concerts will go to
Dine Aid Waltham. 

The funds directed to Dine Aid Waltham will be split evenly between the Waltham Waiters COVID Relief GoFundMe supporting Waltham restaurant employees and the restaurants themselves.
