The impact musicians can have on our lives is profound, and it’s impossible to summarize the impact Bob Weir had on the music industry, artists, and the world in general. So let’s honor Mr. Weir by supporting a few of the acts touring through Philly this week.

Starting with @catelebon Tuesday, January 13 at @uniontransfer . Grab a drink before the show just down the block at @lachinescaphl .

@the_owen_stewart_ performs his EP release show for “Glider” at @undrgroundarts Friday, January 16. And be sure to pop over to @lovecitybrewing before heading into the venue.

And wrapping up the week, @homestartheband plays @ortliebsphilly Saturday, January 17. Get there early to grab a brew and a dog (*hot dog) at the bar before heading back to the stage. #livemusic #phillymusic #phillylivemusic #phillymusicscene #jawnjams

Whether you’re battling the Sunday scaries, attempting dry January, already redoing 2026 goals, or are just over this cold (or, all of the above), there’s nothing like a great show to reset the mind and attitude. Our line up this week features several Philly local bands that you should go out and support this week.

@everythingyesband (American jazz fusion) is at @milkboyphilly Wednesday, January 7. Grab sushi at Kochi Omakase before the show.

@dear_season_pa (emo rock) @lowercoaster (emo punk) and @sharingcontestband (singer songwriter) take the stage at @kungfunecktie_bar on Thursday, January 8. Snag a res at @laserwolf_philly for a killer meal before heading into the venue.

@mywifesanangel , @disasterartistband , @gre.slash.ay and @bruisebath play a benefit show for @serenityhousephl at @ortliebsphilly on Saturday, January 10. Indulge and warm up with some tasty Thai at @circlesthai for dinner.

We’re winding down 2025, and this is always a strange time of year for shows. But, here in Philly, we’re lucky to have a few artists who are giving us multiple nights of incredible performances.

@actualbenfolds performs his holiday show for a two-night run at @citywineryphil Tuesday and Wednesday December 16-17. Get there a bit early for happy hour from 4-7 (50% off wine on tap).

Continuing the night-night run trend, @thefrontbottoms take the stage at @fillmorephilly Friday and Saturday December 19-20. Fill up on bbq at @fettesaubbq before heading over to the venue.

And then returning this year for their A Drugcember to Remember, @thewarondrugs returns to @johnnybrendas for a three-night run Thursday through Saturday, December 18-20. All three shows instantly sold out, but you can sign up for the waitlist. I’m personally crossing my fingers for a little show luck so I can snag a ticket myself. I’d plan on arriving early and grabbing a bite at the bar before heading into the show.

We’ll be taking the week of Christmas off, but we’ll be back for one final post of the year with some NYE show plans for those who are still undecided. What was your favorite show of the year so far? #livemusic #phillymusic #jams #phillylivemusic #jawn #phillymusicscene #livemusicphilly #music #jawnjams

Starting off the week, Philly native @xgregmendezx plays the Side Chapel at @phillyuu Monday, December 8. In the mood for a great burger before the show? Stop by @villagewhiskey first. And reminder, the venue is BYO.

@theheavyheavy take the stage at @bbowlphilly on Thursday, December 11. Head a few blocks north to @tworobbersfishtown for a hard seltzer and smash burger (seriously, some of the best in the city) before heading into the venue.

And wrapping us up, @rhettmiller play @118northwayne in Wayne Friday, December 12. While this show is (unsurprisingly) very sold out, you can sign up for waitlist and hope for a Friday miracle. Miller is also playing @wxpnfm Free at Noon earlier that day at @ardmoremusichall. For those already with a ticket, make a res for a lovely French dinner at @atthetablewayne just across the street.

How is it the last month of 2025? Yes, December calendars may be packed already, but make sure to check out some of the incredible shows still touring through our area before the year ends.

Looking to get in the holiday spirit? @wxpnfm welcomes The @realaimeemann & @realtedleo Christmas Show at @citywineryphil on Wednesday, December 3. A few tickets still remain! Get there a bit early for happy hour from 4-7 (50% off wine on tap).

@portugaltheman plays @uniontransfer Thursday, December 4. Check out @lovecitybrewing just a few blocks away for a drink before the show. If you happen to be there really early, happy hour is from 4-6 and gets you $2 off all draft beers.

And wrapping up our lineup this week, PA natives @theoceanblue return to their home state Friday, December 5 to play @ardmoremusichall . Can’t beat @theripplewood for an excellent dinner before the show. #livemusic #phillymusic #jams #phillylivemusic #jawn #phillymusicscene #livemusicphilly #jawnjams #music

Maybe you’re sticking around Philly for Thanksgiving, or maybe you find yourself in our fine city because of the holiday, but either way, we’ve got you covered for shows this week.

Starting us off, @lovejoyonline visits the @tlaphilly Tuesday, November 25. Grab a bite before the show a few blocks down at @tgktavern .

@thisispattismith and her band play @themetphilly Saturday, November 29. I’m personally very excited for this show, and recommend @osteriaphilly for a lovely dinner first.

That same night, @nikgreeley plays @johnnybrendas . If you’re thinking, but how do I decide? You can always check out @nikgreeley the day before for @wxpnfm Free at Noon show at @ardmoremusichall on Friday, November 28. If you do head to the show at JBs, grab a drink and burger downstairs before heading up to the venue. #livemusic #phillymusic #jams #phillylivemusic #jawn #phillymusicscene #livemusicphilly #jawnjams #music

@thelonebellow (folk) plays @ardmoremusichall Wednesday, November 12. Enjoy a bite and cocktail at @local_ardmore a few blocks down Lancaster Ave before heading into the venue. Pro tip: make your own charcuterie board! Can’t go wrong.

@joshritter & the Royal City Band (singer/songwriter) return to the Philly area Friday, November 14 at the @keswicktheatre . Josh Ritter may be my most seen artist, and he and his band always put on a heck of a show. Enjoy dinner before the show at @robertsblock , conveniently near the regional rail train stop.

And @monroviaboy (West African/Appalachian folk) takes the stage at @bbowlphilly Saturday, November 15. Can’t go wrong with a burger and drink at @standardtap , just a few blocks away. #livemusic #phillymusic #jams #phillylivemusic #jawn #phillymusicscene #jawnjams #livemusicphilly

Ah, Daylight Saving Time has ended, so we’re getting an early jump at posting the lineup for the week. We may all need an extra cup of coffee to stay up for the lineup this week. But we promise, it’s worth it.

@ofmonstersandmen (Icelandic folk rock) are at @themetphilly Tuesday, November 4. Grab a beer at @ourtowntaproomphilly before heading over to Broad Street.

@sydneysprague (Phoenix-based singer songwriter) plays @ukie.club Friday, November 7. Head a few blocks east to @bardotcafebar for a bite and dram before the show.

@marc_cohn and @shawn_colvin (both signers/songwriters) play @lansdownetheater Saturday, November 8. Grab dinner at @sophusiondelco , just across the street, before heading over to the venue.
