Jumping right in this week, we’ve got two incredible shows to pick between this Thursday, Feb. 27, evening.
The Connie Club — @lowcutconnie and special guests @snacktime Diva Divine Monroe, The Flying Veesat) return to Ardmore Music Hall for a special live radio hour taping on @wxpnfm 88.5. While the mostly seated show is mostly sold out, standing room tickets are still available. This is the show I’m hoping to head to this week…will I see you there? I’d personally recommend swinging by @izzys_ardmore or @charandstavecoffee before the show for a cocktail. Also that evening, @thieverycorporation plays @franklinmusichall (yes, that band that had an incredible track on the Garden State soundtrack—which, btw, is still one of my favorite soundtracks). Anyways, they’ve been performing for 25 years now, and I’m sure put on a hell o a show. Tickets are still available. Grab a bite and drink before the show up the street at @yardsbrew Ok, so maybe weeknight concerts aren’t your thing and you’re looking for something this weekend. @moetheband takes the stage at @bbowlphilly for a double header Friday Feb. 28 and March 1. Expect an upbeat, jammy good time. @otherhalfphilly is right across the street for a pre-show beverage. So who are you excited to see in Philly? #livemusic #phillymusic #livemusic

If you’re like me, you’re getting distracted by the amount of fantastic shows that are already going on sale for summer (even the fall!) But let’s not forget the great lineups we still have to look forward to this winter. Here are a few selection for this week:
Singer/songwriter @wellesmusic plays World Cafe Live Thursday Feb. 20. Grab a drink upstairs before arriving, or head down the street to @walnutstcafe for their Golden Hour before the show. Indie pop band @fosterthepeople (who were a staple in my early 20s playlists) come through Friday Feb. 21 at @fillmorephilly Note: this show is sold out, but keep an eye on resale sites day of—I’ve had some luck scoring a last minute deal that way lately. If you do end up going to the show, head to @barcade after for a few games. If shoegaze/dream pop is more your vibe, check out Philly-local band @cigarettesforbreakfastband Saturday Feb. 22 at @ortliebsphilly I haven’t had the chance to see them before, but I have a feeling it will be a hazy good time. Head down the street before the show for beers and eats at @standardtap If you have bought tickets for this summer/fall, who are you seeing? #livemusic #phillymusicscene #jawn #jams The @philadelphiaeagles won the Super Bowl and most Philadelphians are focused on one thing: when’s the parade? But there are some great shows lined up this week, and I strongly encourage y’all to support the arts as much as sports. Plus, Valentine’s Day is Friday, and concert tickets for your sweetie are always a good idea.
Friday, Feb. 14 @raylandishere plays @citywineryphil. I’ve seen Rayland countless times, and he always play a great show. Grab a bite and drink during the show at the venue, or grab dinner before the show a few blocks north at @chubbycattleshabuphilly. If you’re still in need of plans for V Day, head up to the @philamuseum. Enjoy their Friday night lounge from 5p - 8:30pm and listen to hip hop and soul by @seraiahnicole. The event includes discounted museum admission ($15) and parking ($10), as well as the option to purchase food and wine from onsite vendors. Single? Partnered? Friend group? All are welcome. For R&B fans, @ericbellinger performs at Brooklyn Bowl Saturday Feb. 15. Start your night up the block at @barcade for drinks and games or @fettesauphilly for bbq and cocktails. So who are you seeing this week? Well, it’s finally February. Let’s celebrate the new month with a solid run of shows this week.
Two great shows to pick from this Thursday, February 6. For the bluegrass fans, @greenskybluegrass plays @thefillmore If you haven’t had the chance to see them before, GO. They put on a hell of a jam and you’ll leave with a solid feeling of community. Grab a drink before the show at @philadelphiadistilling Indie dance pop more your speed? If so, grab tickets to @rubblebucket at @undrgroundarts. “Came Out of a Lady” is a great track to start with (if you aren’t familiar with their music) and be SURE to check out the accompanying music video. Grab a slice at @woodstreetpizza before the show. Looking for a non-weeknight jam? @mattpondpa (a band with Philly origins) plays @johnnybrendas Saturday night, Feb. 8. While I’ve never had a chance to see this band live, their album Several Arrows Later is a favorite. Get to JBs early for a bite at the bar or head up the street to @tworobbersfishtown for a smash burger and local seltzer. Who are you seeing this week? |
