December 13, 2024 | Devil on My Trail release party

7 PM - 11 PM 

Fat Lady Brewing 
4323 Main St,
Philadelphia, PA 19127

​
Come one, come all and sell your souls in December on a Friday the 13th!
There will be music, words, & more music! A prize wheel! Books! It's at a brewery so there will be lots to drink if you choose. Consider this a real chill and awesome hang as opposed to a boring and stuffy reading. *Dress like a devil and you get a free drink. There will be some special guests and surprises throughout the night, so mark your calendars now and come on out to support indie literature and music.

The Evening:
7-7:30: Butcher Parlance & the 60 Minute Men
7:30-8:10: The words of Alex DiFrancesco, Kailey Tedesco, and Daniel DiFranco
8:30-9:15: Yer So Dad (an incredible Rolling Stones tribute act)
9:30-10:15: Negative Creeps (a Nirvana tribute act with some other fun tunes)
10:30-11 (?): The Return of Butcher Parlance & the 60 Minute Men

March 7,2018
​in support of Joey Sweeney's neighborhood tour

7 PM - 9 PM
Kismet Cowork Manayunk
4230 Main St.
Philadelphia, PA 19127

​With JOEY SWEENEY'S NEIGHBORHOOD TOUR, the band is going on the road... while never leaving town. It's a concept that previously only cover bands have tried — but never like this. Each night over the span of the first week of March, Jojo and the band will play a different neighborhood bar/studio/living room/whatever, joined by a various cast of "YOUR NEIGHBORS" — musicians, poets, and/or comedians from that same part of town each night.

*This gig will also feature the great, and Philly's own, Ben Arnold.
