XIXIX ~ Tucked In ~ Moustapha Noumbissi
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM XIXIXBorn out of quarantine boredom, XIXIX is the solo project of Philadelphia based music producer Will Brown. Pulling influences from the synthesizers of LCD Soundsystem and The Cure to the screaming guitars of Neil Young and Built to Spill, XIXIX is best served to an intentional listener who can separate intrapersonal lyricism from a highly approachable soundscape. Released in fall of 2021 his debut album set the stage for an ethereal synth pop experience, only to be juxtaposed by a raw and aggressive live show driven by Brown’s guitar playing and affinity for punk and hardcore. With nothing left to the imagination besides how to pronounce the name, there’s no sense that Brown is playing a part when he brings himself onstage. Brown’s effortless genre-blending style is credited to the way he’s been able to chameleon himself into an amalgam of different bands and collaborations across his career. His debut record featured credits from Grammy Award winning engineer/producer Nicolas Vernes (War on Drugs, Animal Collective, Deerhunter). He has since collaborated with producer Nick Verruto (Tierra Whack, Meek Mill) and worked in the studio with countless other Philadelphia artists including Caiola, Julian King, and Ali Awan among others.https://open.spotify.com/artist/2i6PxJ8bSLsQ89SiZXjHWs?si=VYYAAqe5QsGanCgWLQtttw&nd=1Tucked InBorn in Brooklyn, New York at Pete’s Candy Store, Tucked In began as a duo with Gunnar Flinchum (vocals) and Shae Ferguson (guitar). The group’s evolution has taken them through the indie rock scene in New York to the sandy shores of Vero Beach, FL to their current residence in Phoenixville, PA. Along the way, the group has won the attention of their audiences with their raw instrumentation backed by refined vocals and tight harmonies. Drummer Connor Lord and recent additions Dan Rodgers (bass) and Carrie Morgan (keyboard/vocals) have taken the band’s sound a step further. The five members spent the fall of 2022 writing and recording the band’s most recent EP, Cocoon.https://www.tuckedintheband.com/Moustapha NoumbissiMoustapha Noumbissi is a songwriter/multi-instrumentalist based in Philadelphia, PA. Born in Belgium to Cameroonian parents, Moustapha grew up a participant of many musical traditions including–West African drumming, American pop, and choral music–his latest recordings favor Indie Rock and Psychedelic Soul. His recent work with producer Lee Clarke is testimony to liminality, self-definition and simultaneous reverence for and refusal of genre.https://moustaphanoumbissi.bandcamp.com/

Jack Iris ~ Andrea Bejar ~ go4broke
**All shows 21+—valid ID required**Doors: 7:00 PMShow: 7:30 PMJACK IRISCrafting an ethereal blend of new-age RnB and psychedelic hiphop, Houston native Jack Iris is redefining what it means to be a genre-bending independent artist in the modern era. Wearing his influences on his sleeve, Jack’s production style combines the grandeur and loudness of Mike Dean with the smooth, bass-heavy, textured style attributed to illAngelo and Sevn Thomas. His entirely self-produced debut, Escape Space City, is a narrative-driven 7-song EP that tells the story of a boy leaving home and searching for enlightenment.https://withkoji.com/@jackiris ANDREA BEJARLatin pop artist Andrea Bejar is, above all else, a music lover. Blurring the lines between her many sources of inspiration, the Mexico-born singer has spent years flawlessly bridging the gap between traditional Mexican music and alternative pop. Blending homegrown inspiration from Latin superstars like Ed Maverick and Natalia LaFourcade with new-age, alternative pop superstars such as Billie Eilish and Tom Misch, the singer attributes her signature sound and writing ability entirely to her upbringing.Growing up in a bilingual home thrust Andrea into a collision of culture, where the classic rock of the 1970-80’s intermingled with the soulful ballads of her Mexican roots. This cacophony of genres and influence provided the foundation for the songwriter’s musical identity; an eclectic mixture of modern pop music and a tribute to her homeland.https://linktr.ee/andrea_bejar GO4BROKEgo4broke is an artist based out of San Diego and Philadelphia who is building a sound and name for himself in the alternative pop genre.

With such a bright future, go4broke is an artist to watch in the coming years.https://linktr.ee/go4broke
