Tierney Greene Band
Tierney Greene and her band of boys came together in early 2025 to play songs old and new, existential and neurotic, from Tierney’s brain and heart.  Tierney and the boys have all been playing music throughout the area in various formats for many years.  It has been said that the band’s sound includes serene melodies gliding over rhythms that stay in motion, synchronistic moments of coming together and falling apart, delicate melodic lines and chugging, driving, tender, sometimes raucous percussion.  A tangible day dream through lyricism that feels like the moment that black-and-white tv meets color.
 
Brian John McBrearty
 Brian John McBrearty is a Philadelphia-based songwriter, vocalist and guitarist. Brian’s music features droning, open-tuned guitars, lyrics that ponder cosmic questions, and psychedelic instrumental excursions. 
 
Deirdre French
Philadelphia-based artist Deirdre French has a tendency to make statements which can leave you scratching your head. Her lyrics shuffle between the pain of childhood loneliness, to the objectively hilarious and (possibly?) universal experience of trying to feel pleasure when your heart is broken. Writing, producing, and performing most of the parts on her debut album, “Sensitive Girl,” French has carved out her own sound. Nostalgic, gritty, chaotic and ethereal. The buzzing intro of the first track, “Airport Whiskey” morphs into a dark and dreamy landscape, a farewell to her former self. The title track, “Sensitive Girl,” is an ironic exploration of gender, sampled and harmonized ad nauseam. The meandering “Emily” is a psychedelic ode to the intoxicating qualities of feminine friendship. “Not Again” is an astute and self-deprecating anthem about her encounters with men who make music. The mixture can feel jumbled- but you can’t help but wonder if that confusion is all part of the plan. In each of her songs, French confronts her failures, her fears, and most of all, her own contradictions. The debut album is a mosaic self-portrait of someone making her way out of sensitive girlhood and into something more solid, more secure. We aren’t sure where it ends up, but we are down for the ride.
