Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Virginia ManComing off of the release of their debut LP, “Sad but True”, the boys have been out on the road! This show has become the favorite amongst members and audiences alike, with a sonic rollercoaster, akin to the plot of a great American classic, with gripping performances and storytelling, and celebratory beverages following. Stephen Amoruso (bass/vocals), Jamaal Farrow (drums), and Kristian Lietzan (guitarist/singer/songwriter) configure the emotional folk-and-roll band, Virginia Man. With poetic lyrics bellowing over the sounds of middle Appalachia, these gentlemen champion the sound of their homeland: a strange suspension between the cardinal directions, musical genres, and the changing of seasons. https://www.virginiamanmusic.com/floracenefloracene is a band from philadelphia. floracene plays indie pop/ rock music and has been a band since 2019. floracene’s ep “shot in the dark” came out in 2022 and has since released single’s “sadie” & “call me if u want me” in 2023. floracene is currently in the studio working on singles. https://floracene.bandcamp.com/Night Windows Where do I go from here? Everyone is getting older. I’m losing people both to death and life. I’ve written about the sadness that comes with the gift of life, but never like this. This time, I leaned as hard into the sadness as necessary in order to feel better.https://linktr.ee/night_windows

Marty O’Reilly (solo) ~ Turtle Ridge ~ Tyler Sensenig
AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00PM Show: 7:30PMMARTY O’REILLYExplaining Marty O’Reilly’s music is like describing a dream. It feels familiar, but at the same time unchartered. His songs sound bluesy but not blues, folk but not folk, soulful but not soul. Marty’s voice is beautiful and unique, his lyrics stark yet lush over gritty electrified guitar, melding beautifully into genre-defying music within the vast definitions of Americana. One can hear an urgency and complexity in the songs, expressing something elemental and perhaps contradictory: love and anger, joy and pain, real and imagined. The live performance is at the core of Marty’s projects. On stage, whether accompanied by a band, or alone, he enters a trance and the music is born again as something new every night. It’s what his followers call “magic”. He goes from raw gospel blues to cinematic epics, from heavy driving grooves to delicately arranged folk songs. Marty leaves the stage out of breath and sweaty, his audience in awe. It’s hard to describe, impossible to categorize. Yet people who know the music will try to explain it to you, just as you might struggle to explain a dream in the morning. The details might slip away as you recount them, but the feeling remains. “I started playing music as medicine for myself to feel good and digest some melancholy,” Marty leaves off. “Over time, I realized if music makes me feel good, the people around me who become a part of it will feel good too. It connects us on the same wavelength. I hope to give the world something real and refreshing.http://www.martyoreilly.com Turtle Ridge Turtle Ridge is a folk band composed of Colin O’Gorman (vocals), Dave Shields (guitar/vocals), Doug Myers (banjo, vocals) and Nolan Gardner (upright bass, vocals). They reside in the beautiful hills of Roxborough and perform original songs as well as covers anywhere people will listen. https://turtleridge.bandcamp.com/ Tyler Sensenig Indie-folk tunes from Philadelphiahttps://www.tylersensenig.com/

Sug Daniels ~ The Lunar Year ~ Best Bear
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Sug DanielsSug Daniels is a Philadelphia-based singer, songwriter, and producer who is using the tools around her to capture the emotions of an era. Daniels’ work is as colorful, vulnerable, and charismatic as her personality. She thoughtfully combines elements of folk, R&B, and low-fi alternatives to create personal and tender music interlaced with messages of truth and positive change. Growing up in the rural town of Smyrna, Delaware, Sug had felt first-hand both the extreme joy and the major isolation that many LGBTQ+ people experience in Southern Baptist-style churches. After coming out, she left the church but continued her journey armed with the love of powerful music and celebration of community. She currently resides in the city of Philadelphia, and is continuing to create music to share and inspire those around her. After leading two successful musical projects, Hoochi Coochi and FlowCity, Sug has set out to create solo music that reflects her current views and personal stories.Website: https://sugdaniels.bandcamp.com/The Lunar YearThe Lunar Year is the art rock project of Philadelphia based musician Katie Hackett.

Their songs have been featured on MTV’s Teen Mom, Teen Mom 2 and The Michalaks.Website:http://www.thelunaryear.com/ Best BearBest Bear is all about understated indie-rock, ethereal dream-pop textures, and heartfelt lyrics. At times lush and oneiric, at others raw and unapologetic, the band’s songs feel like a genuine portrait of the member’s life-long love of music. However, there is also an inclusive, community-driven element at play. Connecting with the audience and other artists drives the mindset of the band, which proudly identifies with the LGBTQIA+ community and values. Best Bear has released two well-received singles over the past few years, but the musicians in the band have continued to perfect their chemistry as a unit. They’re now set to release their first-ever full-length album “When”, which will undoubtedly be another milestone in the band’s discography and musical journey. Website: Http://www.bestbearmusic.com
