About Terraplane Lane

Terraplane Lane are a multi-genre blues, soul, and funk-influenced, six piece band from the South Shore of Massachusetts that formed in 2024. Drummer Jeremy Sheehan and harmonica innovator Stu Barer, (who influenced the beginnings of the band’s signature “reed section”— a gritty, horn-style ensemble that would later pair harmonica and saxophone) laid the foundation.

The two would soon recruit bassist Gregg Marcus, as well as the young and soulful frontman Benjamin Sangiolo. Their early sets featured underplayed jump blues and classic soul tunes but would quickly shift when Gregg crossed paths with local solo artist Jason Cardinal. Jason’s arrival brought a second lead vocalist, keyboards, original songwriting, and a genre-bending spirit that reshaped the band’s identity

With the final addition of saxophonist David Stringham, Terraplane Lane locked in their lineup and launched a sound with equal parts vintage grit, heartfelt groove, and spontaneous joy. Their performances blend timeless covers, powerful originals, and surprising renditions and mashups. In February 2026, they began recording their debut album while building out their original music catalogue for future releases.
