Barakka

Barakka is a Philadelphia-based, multi-national, multi-ethnic band led by singer/guitarist and İstanbul native Barış Kaya. Formed in 2010, the group blends influences from Turkish music, folk-rock, and diverse global traditions, creating a sound born out of friendships between musicians from different backgrounds. Their unique style has been recognized as world music in the U.S., though it resonates just as strongly with Turkish audiences, who hear echoes of Anadolu Rock pioneers in Barakka’s fusion of east and west.
The band has shared stages with major Turkish artists such as Moğollar, Yeni Türkü, Mirkelam, Mehmet Erdem, Gripin, and Mor Ve Ötesi, and has performed for organizations like the Turkish-American Friendship Society and the Collingswood Arts Commission. Their performances span from iconic New York venues like Drom and Nublu to Philadelphia staples such as World Café Live and The Legendary Dobbs, even reaching larger stages like the Wells Fargo Center before a Philadelphia 76ers game.
Barakka’s sound is rooted in original songwriting, enriched by the interplay between guitar, oud, and darbuka, with arrangements shaped by years of experimentation and collaboration. What began in Philadelphia’s Old City with Kaya, Roger Mgrdichian, and Joseph Tayoun grew into a larger ensemble, joined by William Tayoun on keyboards and a rotating cast of bassists and drummers. Their 2012 album Uzaklardan drew acclaim from critics like New York Music Daily, which praised the band’s ability to transcend language barriers through emotionally charged anthems and their fusion of Western and Middle Eastern sounds.
Beyond recordings, Barakka has created impactful music videos, including collaborations with filmmakers Marc Brodzik, Andrew Geller, and Cevahir Unal, tackling themes from anti-war messages to national tragedies like the Soma mine disaster. During the pandemic, they stayed active with inventive at-home and animated projects, and in recent years have toured extensively across Turkey, often reaching smaller cities underserved by live music. Alongside writing new material, Barakka remains committed to honoring the legacy of Turkish composers such as Aşık Veysel, Erkin Koray, and Ara Dinkjian, balancing innovation with tradition in their ongoing musical journey.

Sean Tobin & the Boardwalk Fire

Born and raised on the New Jersey shore, Sean Tobin was influenced by folk-singing troubadours and high-energy rockers alike. His high-energy performances and rock n’ roll-tinged releases are mostly due to his upbringing in the Jersey Shore bar scene. Tobin honed his craft playing countless shows in dives, clubs, and basements and during his time busking on the streets of Galway, Ireland, throughout 2015 and 2017. He has performed at such festivals as SXSW, Americanafest, North2Shore, and Frank Turner’s Lost Evenings, and has opened for the likes of Jason Isbell, Rhett Miller, and many more.

Sean Tobin & the Boardwalk Fire – Live from Asbury Park

With four full-length albums, three EPs and hundreds of shows under his belt, Sean Tobin released his fifth album, Seasick, in 2025. After leaving his home state of NJ for Nashville in 2023, Tobin yearned for the ocean that once graced his backyard. The move to Nashville was a rite of passage in Tobin’s eyes, one that was necessary for his career if he ever wanted to make it beyond the northeastern dives he had become so accustomed to playing. But at what cost?
Seasick, Tobin’s forthcoming album, navigates the uncomfortability of change in an effort to grow. With lyrics reminiscent of folk troubadours and alternative poets alike, Tobin creates a soundscape all his own, blending the sounds of middle America with those of his home state in a genre he has dubbed “Shorebreak.”
“Every time I think I’ve gone as far as I can go, I push a little further,” says Tobin. “Seasick is the record I’ve been trying to make since I started out in 2018. Horns, pedal steel, live tracking… I’m prouder than ever.”

The recording of ‘Every Bridge’ in Nashville, TN

Seasick, Tobin’s fifth LP, will be released on October 24, 2025. New singles from the record will be released between now and then.

Halloween Haunt & Glam with Flamy Grant & Heather Mae
2025-10-31 20:00 - 23:00
We’re sorry to say this show has been canceled.
At The Fallser Club, we always do our best to support our artists — but in this case, circumstances beyond their control left us without enough advance ticket sales to cover the costs of the show. We never want to put our artists or staff in a difficult position, so we made the tough decision to cancel.
A quick note for the future: buying tickets in advance truly matters. Venues and artists rely on presales to know if a show can happen. Imagine if you went to work each week not knowing whether you’d get paid — that’s what it’s like for small venues and independent musicians when tickets don’t sell until the last minute.
If you love an artist, grab that ticket early. It’s usually cheaper for you, and it helps keep live music thriving.

Flamy Grant
© Weeno Photography 2024
Award-winning and Billboard-charting artist Flamy Grant is a shame-slaying, hip-swaying, singing-songwriting drag queen from western North Carolina. Her 2022 debut record, Bible Belt Baby, was nominated for Best Pop Album at the San Diego Music Awards and was named one of the Top Ten Queer Country Albums of 2023 by Rainbow Rodeo Magazine. Flamy is a winner of the 2023 Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk Competition and a nominee for the 2023 QueerX Award for Best Drag Artist. She has been featured in Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, People, Billboard, and more. Both a powerhouse vocalist and an intrepid songwriter, Flamy blends the art of drag with her iconic folk/rock sound to create a memorable musical experience.
Flamy is the first drag performer to appear on Christian music charts, with both her song “Good Day” and her Album Bible Belt Baby reaching #1 on iTunes — the latter staying at the top for nine consecutive days. Additionally, “Good Day” debuted at #20 on Billboard’s Christian digital sales chart. Her music has over 750,000 streams on Spotify, Apple, and Amazon. Flamy has collaborated with Adeem the Artist, Jennifer Knapp, Semler, and Derek Webb. In addition to playing the New Folk winner’s showcase at the 2023 Kerrville Folk Festival, she has played Wild Goose Festival in North Carolina, San Diego Pride’s SheFest, and headlined Blount County Pride in East Tennessee, where she won a court victory after a local district attorney threatened to enforce Tennessee’s drag ban.
It’s no accident that Flamy’s drag name is an homage to Amy Grant, the undisputed queen of Christian music and 90s chart-topping pop artist. Much of Flamy’s music centers on the queer spiritual journey, telling stories of resilience and recovery from religious trauma in a world where LGBTQ+ people are frequently ignored by, harmed in, or ejected from religious spaces. With a bold lip, a big lash, and a blistering voice, Flamy drags audiences to a soulful, uplifting church of her own making. This down-to-earth diva has entertained music lovers from Los Angeles to Nashville with her funny, frank, and fabulous songs.
“Her vocals soar… A mix of Wynona Judd smokiness and Dolly Parton realness. Her lyrics sparkle as brightly as her rhinestone jumpsuit.” —Andy Kaufman, Music Connection Magazine
“A cheeky country-disco track… guaranteed to smear a smile across your face as bold as a heavy lip.” —Rachel Cholst, TheBoot.com
“Her vocals are not post-production magic… her strong voice helps carry sincere lyrics.” —Regina Elling, San Diego Union-Tribune
“Cathy, rabble-rousing folk of the Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie variety.” —Nick Spacek, The Pitch Kansas City

Heather Mae

We invite you to Heather Mae’s Double Album Release Tour at The Fallser Club. But rather than simply hosting a concert, Mae—queer indie-pop songwriter and social justice activist—will be transforming her show into a space for resilience, connection, and collective healing, creating a powerful community gathering within The Fallser Club.
Known for her powerful voice and unapologetic anthems, Heather Mae has spent 13 years touring as both an artist and activist. This immersive event includes a one-hour pre-show community gathering—a safe, empowering space for reflection and healing, where Mae, a seasoned song chant leader, leads a support circle, chant workshop, and meditation open to all ticket buyers. Following this, she will deliver a concert, debuting songs from her new double album.
Heather will strengthen community ties and promote a night of mutual care and collective empowerment.
Heather Mae is an evocative powerhouse rabble-rouser
Heather Mae, the acclaimed social justice singer-songwriter, fearlessly bares her soul in her music, creating an intimate space of shared vulnerability for her listeners. Her unbridled honesty, both on and off stage, has cultivated a devoted fanbase and garnered recognition, including accolades like the winner of the Rocky Mountain Folks Fest Songwriter Showcase and Northeast Regional Folk Alliance Artist-Activist of the Year award.
In her 2019 release, “Glimmer,” Heather Mae crafts a luminescent masterpiece, drawing parallels to vocal powerhouses Adele and Sara Bareilles. With storytelling depth reminiscent of Florence Welch, the record uniquely centers on mental health, with each lyric unveiling a portrait of resilience and self-discovery.
Positioned on the cusp of unveiling her upcoming post-pandemic double record, Mae embarked on a mission to address the stark gender disparity for music producers—a mere 4% representation by women. In 2023, Heather Mae rallied a dynamic collective of women and non-binary talents in Nashville, assembling luminaries like producer ZDAN and Lollies, alongside guest artists such as Grammy award-winning musician Allison Russell and the extraordinary duo Sistastrings. Together, they crafted two electrifying albums in two distinct genres, showcasing the unparalleled talent and versatility of women and non-binary music makers.

Satellite Sound at The Fallser Club, co-curated with WRTI’s J. Michael Harrison — where fearless jazz meets the future.
Ticket Link Here

Boundary-pushing music, rooted in the creative fire of Painted Bride and amplified for the world to hear.

Baltimore-based pianist, keyboardist, and composer Lafayette Gilchrist has long been celebrated for fusing the drive of hip-hop and D.C. go-go with the depth and unpredictability of jazz, stride, and free improvisation. Now the newest member of the legendary Sun Ra Arkestra, Gilchrist brings his exuberant nonet to Philly on the heels of Move With Love—the band’s first album in seven years, released July 25 on Morphius Records.
Recorded live at Baltimore’s Club Car, the album captures a night of high-voltage groove, genre-bending interplay, and urgent joy, all in service of Gilchrist’s core message: in times of division, “the only way to move toward the future is with humanity, with compassion, with care—with love.” Audiences can expect combustible ensemble energy, deep-pocket rhythms, sly political grooves, and ecstatic releases that blur the line between dance floor and bandstand.
As Troy Collins of All About Jazz writes, Gilchrist’s “melodic sensibility embraces the esoteric angularity of Andrew Hill and Sun Ra as much as the emotional directness of the blues.” Giovanni Russonello of The New York Times adds: “New Orleans barrelhouse piano, the Impressionism of Ravel, and Duke Ellington’s jaggy solo-piano sound form the bedrock of Lafayette Gilchrist’s style. But if there’s one big influence on the way he thinks about rhythm, it’s the deeply swinging ‘pocket’ of a classic go-go beat.”
Lineup: Lafayette Gilchrist (piano), Anthony “Blue” Jenkins (bass), Carl Filipiak (guitar), Koleby Royston (drums), Bashi Rose (percussion), Christian Hizon (trombone), Leo Maxey (trumpet), Shaquim Muldrow (tenor sax), Gregory Thompkins (tenor sax)
As Lafayette Gilchrist and his New Volcanoes channel the urgency of go-go, funk, and the avant-garde into a groove-powered call for unity in turbulent times, Satellite Sound affirms jazz is a living archive of resilience, resistance, and renewal.
Presented in partnership with The Fallser Club and co-curated with WRTI’s J. Michael Harrison, Move With Love closes out the Satellite Sound fall trilogy with a performance that bridges generations, connects cultures, and invites all to join a movement rooted in rhythm, resistance, and radical joy.

Clare Maloney & the Great Adventure

Listen in on whispers of waves and wind, launch from safe harbors, fight flood and fire. Flood, Fire & Honey—the second album from New York rock band Clare Maloney & the Great Adventure (out Oct. 24th)—is a journey into the unknown, a call to adventure, and a warrior’s odyssey through isolation, storm, and search for home.
The opening scene, and first single, “The Flood” (released May 2025), begins with an epic storm. Recorded live in a single take, the track captures the raw electricity the band is known for: thunderous rhythms, surging guitars, and Clare Maloney’s opera-trained, gale-force vocals raging above the torrent with fury and wonder.
For Maloney, the album’s elemental themes reflect a deeply personal struggle:
“Floods and fires became powerful metaphors for the internal storms I was facing,” she shares. “They mirrored the destruction of everything I thought I knew about myself—and the process of sifting through the wreckage to understand what was worth rebuilding. These songs became my way of making sense of that chaos.”
Determined to capture their collective spirit, the band recorded Flood, Fire & Honey live over five focused days at Ponderosa Studios in Lafayette, NJ. They lived above the studio, wrote and finished songs on the fly, and leaned on each other through every step. This trust and urgency fueled performances from Maloney and Nate De Brine (vocals, guitar), Caleb Estey (drums, vocals), and Russell Gottlieb (bass, banjo). Together they shaped not just songs, but a story—layering lyrics, arrangements, and emotion into a unified whole.
That cohesion has been forged onstage. Since their 2022 debut Daybreaker, the NY/NJ-based foursome has played over 250 shows, refining their spellbinding live sound while sharing bills with icons like Pat Benatar, Robert Plant & Allison Krauss, Los Lobos, The Wailers, and Kevin Bacon’s Bacon Brothers among others.
Produced by the band, engineered and mixed by Tom Askin, and mastered by Sam Stauff, Flood, Fire & Honey is both survival story and sonic adventure—an album that surges, burns, and ultimately shines with hard-won light.

Chris Kasper

Chris Kasper is an American songwriter who is currently based in the Philadelphia area. He’s been active in the local and national scene for the last 20 years. Over that time, he has released seven records and toured with acts like Amos Lee and The Wood Brothers. His music traverses the Americana, blues, folk, and rock spectrums, blurring the lines between genres. Kasper’s evolution into a no-nonsense songwriter is heard throughout his latest album, Sunlight in an Empty Room.

Sunlight in an Empty Room (featuring Oliver Wood of the Wood Brother’s and G.Love) is Kasper’s seventh full-length record. It is alive with nods to songwriters of the 70s like Bobby Charles, Lowell George, and Neil Young. Kasper also drew inspiration from the artwork of Edward Hopper and Andrew Wyeth, embodying the musical essence of illuminating the small worlds within a larger space, focusing on the bittersweet beauty of simplicity often lost in grandiose landscapes.

“His music sips from the cool and refreshing waters of soulful songwriters, old bluesmen, sonic architects, fine poetry & a well-traveled spirit.”

Philly Gumbo

Philly Gumbo’s distinctive blend of New Orleans R & B, funk, reggae, blues and soul has made it a unique and popular presence on the Philadelphia music scene for thirty years. Over the years, the band has been a “Best Of” selection by Philadelphia Magazine in their annual “Best Of Philadelphia” issues as well as having played most of the top venues in the area such as The Kimmel Center, The Sellersville Theater and World Café Live and such major events as the Atlantic City Summer Jazz Festival, Musikfest, Jambalaya Jam, Jam On The River, WRTI-FM’s Groovin’ In The Park, the Media Blues Stroll, The West Oak Lane Jazz & Arts Festival and many more. Philly Gumbo has opened for such greats as Dr. John, Buddy Guy & Jr. Wells, Rick Danko & Levon Helm of The Band and Mutabaruka. Having pioneered the live music scene at the legendary South Street venue Bacchanal, Philly Gumbo was often joined by such special guests as Todd Rundgren, David Lindley, Teddy Royal of Fats Domino’s band, members of Harold Melvin & The Blues Notes’ band and others. In addition, members of Philly Gumbo have played with such legends as Little Milton, Wilson Pickett, Bo Diddley and Big Youth.
“Philly Gumbo’s long-term popularity has come from two things,” notes founding member Randall Grass: “an ability to play an authentic and unique mix of New Orleans
R & B, funk, reggae, blues and soul, and the presence of great singers, such as Brenda Smith, Walt Taylor, Jeannie Brooks, Richard Johnson, and current lead vocalist India Rex.”
Formed in late 1980, the band quickly developed a following at the Germantown club
Takers Café with a unique mix of music reminiscent of New Orleans group The Neville Brothers. As such, the group pioneered the popularity of New Orleans music in Philadelphia, with a celebrated weekly gig at Bacchanal for nearly a decade. The band released its debut single “Holy War b/w Mardi Gras” in 1984 and contributed the original song “Xmas In New Orleans” to the Seasons Greetings Philadelphia benefit CD in 1999.
Four members of Philly Gumbo—drummer Tim Hayes, bassist Bert Harris, guitarist Pete Eshelman and keyboardist Randall Grass–have been the core of the band since the beginning while saxophonist Richard Orr often sat in with the band as early as the 80’s and vocalist extraordinaire India Rex, is the latest in a long line of exceptional vocalists. The band released a new CD “Come And Get It” in 2011. A Philly Gumbo performance makes a great listening experience, with its ever-shifting mix of New Orleans R & B, blues, jazz, funk, reggae, soul, and even African music, but is equally suited for dancing.
The band appeals to a people of all ages and backgrounds. In fact, it is difficult to resist getting up and shaking your groove thing to Philadelphia’s greatest groove band!

Judy Paster

Judy Paster is a Nashville-based, Pennsylvania-grown Americana artist whose music carries the soul of her story—honest, authentic, and full of hope. She began writing songs at age 8, using music to process pain, faith, and a longing for peace after a childhood marked by trauma and loss. Later, her father’s battle with Alzheimer’s and a season of living on the road out West further shaped both her heart and her voice.
Her debut with The Judy Paster Trio features two Grammy-winning members of The Time Jumpers, weaving fiddle, upright bass, and acoustic guitar into a rich, rootsy sound. Her songs have been featured in film and TV (Christmas Crush, The Holiday Exchange, Music City Mistletoe), and she first gained national attention when Billboard called her “an artist truly on the rise” following the release of her debut EP. Since moving to Nashville, Judy has earned airplay, carved out a place in the singer-songwriter scene, and received multiple awards, including the 2021 Josie Music Award for Folk/Americana Artist of the Year and a Canadian Covenant Award (Canada’s equivalent of the Dove Award) for co-writing Jazz Blues Song of the Year.
She has written and shared stages with some of Music City’s top writers, released five albums (Judy Paster, Stronger, Rubies, Rocks & Stones, Like Stardust, Road to the Sun), and several singles. Judy is also part of Women Behind the Lyrics—a national tour and upcoming reality TV series that follows the lives of
four female Country artists living and touring together.
She frequently performs at the world-famous Bluebird Cafe and has graced many of Nashville’s premier stages. Through it all, her music remains a steady companion—for herself and for others—offering light, strength, and something real in a world that too often sells the opposite.

The Fractals

Photos: Lisa Schaffer
Guess what happens when a trio of three martini lunches staggers toward a ragged copy of “Respect For Acting,” stumbling over bellbottom into plasticine porters, hissing like 8-Tracks, knocking over emo kids with Flying Vees? The Fractals, that’s what happens, and they have been happening for ten years. Tearing it up mercilessly in a cyclonic maelstrom of Stevie-cum-Angus-cum-Fagan, with outer bands of Zeppelin and Trane, the whirling dervish that is The Fractals is not to be ignored. Kevin Hanson, lead singer and songwriter, has performed and recorded with the likes of Usher, Jay-Z, The Roots, Musiq Soulchild and countless others. He appears in the acclaimed films “Fade To Black” as a band member for Jay-Z’s “farewell concert) and Dave Chappelle’s “Block Party” as a member of the house band . His distinctive songwriting is what has drawn so many to both Huffamoose and his current band. His compositions and masterful guitar playing are the spinal cord of The Fractals. Jim Stager, bassist, has performed and recorded with hundreds of artists, ranging from Rosemary Clooney (!) to the legendary punk band “X”. His mastery of rock and jazz merge in a style that has earned him a place in the pantheon of Philadelphia’s notable session greats.
Erik Johnson, drummer, has performed or recorded with countless artists in myriad styles. His credits include: Ben Schachter’s Trio of Many, George Garzone, Tim Hagans, Jack Walrath, Gary Bartz, John Swana, Jef Lee Johnson, Ralph Bowen, Larry McKenna, Jim Ridl, Jamaaladeen Tacuma, Kurt Elling, Gerald Veasley, Lelia Broussard, Liz Longley. In addition to his legendary status as a jazz virtuoso, his drumming has served as the heartbeat for a striking range of
Philadelphia’s singer-songwriter community. His fiercely original expressiveness on drums and soaring background vocals have
become vital to The Fractals’ sound. The Fractals have recently completed their first full-length offering, “Heavy Rotation” and are currently performing in the Philly area in support of their new release. Their live performances are not to be missed, and their shows have gained notoriety among local musicians and fans alike as remarkable musical events.

Maria Mirenzi

Maria Mirenzi is a Philly-based indie alt-rock singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Maria sings you a story with hazy, emotive vocals and an electric guitar in hand, hoping you can relate. Her songwriting is semi-autobiographical, haunting yet whimsical, constantly bouncing between hope and despair. Inspired by artists like Neko Case, Hayley Williams and Andy Shauf, Maria captivates audiences with her narrative lyricism and rich harmonic world.
Her debut EP, set to be released in the fall of 2025, is in collaboration with producer and Grammy award-winning recording engineer, Matt Poirier, and features musicians, Lew D’Avanzo, Shane Luckenbaugh, Max Kulicke and Sean Markey. Singles, “Suburban Nightmare” and “Let It Steep”, bring us inside a deep emotional world where we are forced to grapple with our humanness. Her debut EP is a cathartic musical experience with danceable songs you can cry to.
Maria’s music has been featured on WXPN’s Midday show, she has opened for punk rock legend, Bob Mould, and has recorded with artists Mewithoutyou, Bedolina and Pat Parker.

Bel

Bel is the project of Philadelphia-based songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Isabel Furman. Known for her dreamy soundscapes and intricate guitar work, Bel blends imaginative songwriting with rock-driven arrangements, drawing on influences like Snail Mail and Madison Cunningham. Whether performing solo or with a full band, Bel brings a deeply emotive and immersive energy to stages around Philadelphia.
The project’s debut album, Beaches (2022), earned features from WXPN, Atwood Magazine, Left of the Dial, and more. Her sophomore album, Licorice, out November 14th, explores themes of isolation, codependency, and long-term love through vibrant, layered songs that mark a bold sonic evolution. Inspired by her work with local punk band Honeythunder, Furman leans into heavier textures while maintaining the tenderness and lyrical depth that defined her previous solo work. Lead singles “Canadian Tuxedo” and “No More Time” showcase the album’s emotional and stylistic range—from tongue-in-cheek love songs to existential anthems. Licorice is Furman’s most dynamic and honest work yet, asking the urgent question, “What does it mean to make something last?”

Ari Carter

Ari Carter is a Philly-based indie rock power trio that blends the brooding jangle of Midwest emo with raw, Southern alt-rock, drawing comparisons to Alabama Shakes, Big Thief, and Jeff Buckley. Formed after Ari’s time in New Orleans’ offbeat indie scene, the band’s 2024 album Luck 4 Beginners showcases emotionally raw lyrics and soulful vocals crafted from a unique blend of Midwestern roots and the gritty weirdness of the Big Easy. Fuck ICE, drink water ice.

Roberta Faceplant

https://www.robertafaceplant.com/
Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/robertafaceplant/
Roberta Faceplant is a honky tonk hurricane from Philadelphia. The 5-piece Outlaw Americana band has been called “a cowpunk miracle” and been compared to “Southern Culture on the Skids fronted by Laura Bell Bundy.” It’s Country, but you can hear the city.
Vocalist and singer/songwriter Katie Feeney leads the band with a voice that blends the raw, rock n’ roll grit of Janis Joplin with the whimsical, western smoothness of Patsy Cline. Staffed by a gang of mischievous musical veterans, Roberta Faceplant’s live show is high-energy roadhouse joy infused with a rebellious spirit that’ll keep you on the dance floor all night.
The band’s sound has captivated audiences in the Northeast Corridor with elements of southern rock, old school country, rockabilly, and the blues blending perfectly into a melting pot of killer melodies, memorable riffs, and playful storytelling.
Roberta Faceplant has already garnered international press and radio play on KEXP, WXPN, KLKT, KOOP, Nola County Radio, Post To Wire, Lonesome Highway and more. The band just released their debut EP, Yee Haw Stuff, on July 26, 2024 and is working on a follow up slated for 2025

Rev Chris & Les Garçons Crasseux

Christopher Marsceill (aka Rev Chris) was born in Boston and raised in Philadelphia, where they attended Settlement Music School at age 11 and eventually studied with Philly staple Eric Speigel who introduced him to reharmonization and singing. At 17, he made his way to New Orleans, where he studied under Mike Pellera, Ellis Marsalis, and Peter Martin, and began to move away from modern jazz after meeting Joe Krown and Jon Cleary and embracing the ways of boogie-woogie and Professor Longhair style blues. Next was a string of successful tours with the Ted Hefko Quartet and New Orleans Juice and Brides of Jesus (featuring Russell Batiste of the Meters). In his travels, he has shared the stage with Widespread Panic, Ani DiFranco, Blueground Undergrass, Santana, a member of Squirrel Nut Zippers, and the Dave Matthews Band. While not on the road, he spent his time performing in the French Quarter with the Bradford Truby Trio, the Dukes of Dixieland, St. Louis Slim, and Preservation Hall Jazz. He can also be found on bootleg recordings by Meters bassist George Porter’s solo project. The icing on this cake was a weekly appearance at the historic Maple Leaf Bar as part of the Ellen Rogers Band from 1999-2002, in 2003 co- founded “Restless Natives” with Bill Iuso and Brian Besse. Their debut album featured Dirty Dozen Brass Band members and the Neville Brothers.

Since relocating to Philadelphia following Hurricane Katrina, he began performing solo around the city, beginning a residency at the Tavern on the Hill in 2007 that continues as of 2024. He put together his own ensemble, Les Garçons Crasseux, and began to focus mostly on original music. He has appeared in the bands of many Philadelphia-based performers, including Roger Learnard, Emmett Drueding, Daisy Royce, and Bill Avayou. A first-call session player, he has appeared on albums by David Cope, Daisy Royce, Brian Kors, Humbleman Band, Mighty Rhythm Kings, Paul Downie, and Max Mason, along with about a half dozen albums recorded during his time in New Orleans.
In 2018, he released his 9th album, The End of Love, which was solo piano. Here he strays away from original music and re-imaginationed songs by Prince, Leonard Cohen, the Beatles, Tom Tallitsch, Fats Waller and Blind Melon. His 10th album, a live performance featuring the sextet, was released in August of 2019 and featured originals along with an arrangement of the Miles Davis song “Flamenco Sketches” and the Fats Domino classic, “Blueberry Hill”. During the COVID-19 quarantine of 2020, Rev self-released multiple singles on the online platform Bandcamp, in addition to streaming gigs. He also reformed the Drums N Keys duo with either Gusten Rudolph or Claudio de Pujadas and entertained, while masked up, on the streets of Philly and the surrounding area.
In March of 2024, “Lingua Franca” was released with his working band, Les Garçons Crasseux. The album features many songs written during the COVID lockdown years.

Jason McGovern

Philly’s The Describers explore the dichotomy and absurdity of trying to pull yourself together as the world falls apart in their new album “No Worlds.”
To Jason McGovern, founder and leader of The Describers, the album is as much a reckoning with personal “new worlds” as it is about “no worlds.”
“Over the past few years, I’ve been in this weird place where I’m actually opening up myself to myself and to things that might bring some real contentment,” said McGovern. “All that while it feels like society, the earth itself and maybe even the idea of a shared reality are coming undone.”
“No Worlds” was largely recorded and mixed by McGovern in his home studio, Eel Diner Jukebox, though he also did significant work at Retro City Studios in Philadelphia and Kawari Sound in Wyncote, PA, with Matty Muir.
McGovern has been releasing music and performing as and with The Describers since 2018. He also collaborates with other artists in the Philadelphia area representing a wide range of styles, most recently playing keyboards for The Tisburys. He also served as co-producer for their 2025 record “A Still Life Revisited.”
“No Worlds” is available to stream and download now.

Bright Kelly

Blessed with a gritty voice and cursed (?) with an angry face, Bright has never been much good with social cues. You don’t have to guess what he’s thinking — ask him, and he’ll tell you in blunt terms.
His music works like that, too. It’s at once startlingly honest and thrillingly oblique. You get the immediate sense that this man’s mind is wired a little differently, and that his voice—throaty and husky, prodigiously loud when he needs it to be—is there to span the distance. To make you understand.
As frontman of The Great Enough, he’s been the herald and standard bearer of lush, dance-and-shout-inducing alternative rock anthems. In his solo work, he is a little more introspective, a little more relaxed, and a little more comfortable with blemishes.
His music has been compared to—or drawn fans of—Hozier, Gang of Youths, Counting Crows, The Avett Brothers, The Head and the Heart, and Elliott Smith.

What started as a full-steam homage to Miss Sharon Jones took a left turn when the wheels fell off and the ship lifted high above Love Park , clipping the hat off that bird-dropping-covered statue of William Penn and straight into the sun.
PJ Brown and Her Resistance continues its mission to spread love and music – To celebrate lost souls, excited shapeshifters, perennial drifters, aspiring troublemakers. and unapologetic agents of change.
It’s troubled soul music, taped-together rock and roll, basement party funk—it’s dark as night and light as day—and all of it is for you!

The band is excited to announce the release of two new songs, “Deeper and Deeper” and “Pink Elephants” –

Blending history, science, and personal storytelling, Carter reveals how the mysteries of the universe have shaped art, culture, and innovation, and how they have profoundly influenced his own music and life. Through this journey, Exploring Cosmic Melodies invites readers to see space not only as a frontier of discovery, but as a boundless source of creativity, connection, and wonder.

A new and exciting face on the Jam Band landscape, Shakedown Citi was formed in the Shakedown Street parking lot at Citi Field in 2023, as the musicians met each other for the first time and sensed something special was happening. SC channels the Grateful Dead without trying to copy them outright.
The music feels alive, fresh, and new. Each song is a journey that can take new directions, twists, and turns at any time. The interplay, communication, and musicality of the performers have inspired people who don’t even like the Grateful Dead to LIKE Shakedown Citi.
And if you’re a fan of segues, transitions, song combinations, and creative, fun, and engaging set lists encompassing an expansive repertoire – Shakedown Citi is definitely your jam.

The musicians of Shakedown Citi met for the first time at the Shakedown Parking lot at Citi Field on June 21, 2023. They played their first full-band performance at Hill Country in NYC in January of 2024…
…and the bus has been rolling since then.

Youba Cissokho, Aba Diop, and Jason Hosier

Youba Cissokho, Aba Diop, and Jason Hosier come together to share the joy, depth, and ancient rhythms of West African music with audiences around the globe. Their collaboration bridges continents and generations, offering a cross-cultural mix rooted in the rich griot traditions of Senegal and infused with fresh, contemporary energy. Youba, a master of the 21-stringed kora, carries forward his
family’s musical legacy, guided by his father, legendary saxophonist Issa Cissokho. Aba, a griot on both sides of his lineage, channels the power of the sabar drum through jazz, rock, and Sufi mysticism, having performed with artists such as Yo-Yo Ma and Youssou N’Dour. Guitarist Jason Hosier adds lyrical, jazz-tinged melodies that spark a new musical conversation, blending seamlessly with the rhythms and strings. Together, they weave rhythm, melody, and tradition into a sound that is both rooted and expansive—an invitation into an unforgettable musical journey.

Ryan Tennis

Hailing from Philadelphia, America’s City of Brotherly Love, Ryan Tennis’ music is all about dismantling boundaries and bringing people together. Genre-defiant by nature and with diversity at its core, his rousing songs are infused with the rhythms from the many countries he’s visited during his extensive tours. While his performances are dynamic and danceable, Tennis’ voice and songs have a disarming sweetness that lowers your defenses and lets you breathe easy.
A singer-songwriter and guitarist, Ryan Tennis’ style bares a strong influence from the Folk and Rock he grew up with (Simon & Garfunkel, The Beatles, Crosby Stills, Nash & Young), a connection with roots soul music that grew in his youth (Bill Withers, Otis Redding, and Sam Cooke), and the energy and rhythms of Colombia, where he has toured and collaborated with some of the country’s finest artists. Over the last 12 years, Tennis has played 100-200 shows a year and pulled off countless independent tours with shows in the US, Argentina, Colombia, Peru, Costa Rica, Mexico, Ireland, Switzerland, Germany, France, Austria, the Netherlands, Denmark, Italy, Spain, Thailand, and Australia.

Winter solstice is the darkest day of the year. In the darkness, there is an opportunity to let go of things that no longer serve us. It also represents the return of the light, and there is an opportunity to call in what we need.
We look forward to celebrating this opportunity to heal and set our intentions for the year to come. Bring your bright spirit to help us collectively illuminate the darkness together.
