Little Ugly, the offspring of chief songwriter/singer/acoustic guitarist Michael Day and his collaboration with bassist Casey Cormier, percussionist Nick Dickinson and pianist Windsor Johnson, is a band that authentically thrives in its defiance of classification.
The mix of imaginative, introspective lyrics and classically trained musicianship has created arrangements that are connected with the eclectic works of artists such as The Decemberists, Silverchair and Ray LaMontagne- yet they imitate no one. Delightfully unconventional at every melodious interchange, these four musicians have born a live experience that is a valuable reminder of how music can elevate, captivate, and broaden our minds, as well as move our feet.

CT veterans Little Ugly are excited to bring their acoustic rock stylings to The Buttonwood Tree Performing Arts and Cultural Center for the first time. This promises to be an intimate show as Layah Jane and Oliver Johnson bring their Canadian Folk/Soul sound to Middletown and are kind enough to share the stage with Little Ugly.
On a side note, Little Ugly’s Windsor Johnson is the younger brother of Oliver Johnson and both groups are very excited to watch these two share the stage. It’s going to be a beautiful night of music, friends and family.
