Speed of Sound to perform at Underground Lounge
BELFAST — "Belfast welcomes something new and exciting this winter," said The Underground Lounge, in a news release.
The Speed of Sound, the latest musical endeavor from longtime Maine musician Spencer Albee, whose decades-long career has shaped much of Maine’s live music scene, according to the Underground, in a news release, will perform at The Underground Lounge on Friday, Dec. 19, 2025. The show begins at 7 p.m.; doors open at 6:30 p.m.
"The Speed of Sound is an indie band with a hankering for Stevie Wonder, Hendrix, Little Feat, McCartney, The Meters, Herbie Hancock, Bowie, Zevon, 90s hip hop, and Detroit-era Motown," said the news release.
The band marks the beginning of a fresh musical chapter for Albee (lead vocals, vintage keyboards, and rhythm guitar). He's joined by Zachary Bence (lead guitar and background vocals), Owen Markowitz (drums and background vocals) and Caleb Sweet (bass and background vocals).
“We’re stepping into a new chapter - different energy, same heart,” says Albee. “I’m eager for longtime fans and new listeners to hear what we’ve been working on."
According to The Underground Lounge, The Underground Lounge, is a DIY basement-theatre venue located under the Basil Burwell Theatre at 17 Court Street, and is known for intimate shows, community-driven spirit, and a warm, unpretentious atmosphere.
Admission is $10–$20 at the door (cash only). Seating is limited, so early arrival is recommended. Food and drink will be available by donation.
