Doors: 7:00pmShow: 7:30pm Luna Honey Luna Honey is a dark, absurdist post-punk trio birthed out of DC’s DIY scene in 2017 and now residing in Philadelphia. The trio, consisting of Maura Pond, Benjamin Schurr, and Levi Flack has worked with artists such as Norman Westberg (Swans) and Big Paul Ferguson (Killing Joke). Known for their expansive range, songs run the gamut from searing vocals that float above a maelstrom of noise and feedback to moody lullabies with lurking basslines. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1P_3ghvNr0E Evangelism Evangelism is a five, six, seven-piece post-punk band from Philadelphia comprised of disgraced government agents and weary landlords and dead painters. We’re writing to you from a leaky warehouse in Kensington. We need to grow. Please join our cult. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEn6RnZkbeo Phil Spector’s Gun Phil Spector’s Gun is a rock ‘n’ roll powerhouse from Philadelphia, featuring Kevin Brusha on vocals and guitar, Abe Kaplan on guitar, Ian Louda on drums, and YahnBoi on bass. The band creates a gritty, raw, and riff-filled sound, drawing on influences of primal rock while maintaining a dynamic, community-oriented presence in the local music scene. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyyzRR6BxCg Oldest Sea (solo set) Formed in 2017 by songwriter Sam Marandola, Oldest Sea began as one woman’s personal exploration of the darker side of experimental folk music. Inspired by dreams and distance and the sounds of nature, Marandola combines these influences into pieces that are intensely emotional and evocative, yet simultaneously illusory and diffuse. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaDAaBO3DEo

Mike Pellegrino (guitar/vocals), Shawna Grabowski (drums/vocals) and Howie Cohen (bass/vocals) hit the ground running with numerous EP’s, touring the East Coast and Midwest. Whispers from peers in the community made their way to the ears of Brett Romnes and Vinnie Caruana (both of I Am The Avalanche, The Movielife). Romnes, an engineer working out of The Barbershop Studios in Lake Hopatcong, NJ, and Caruana agreed to co-produce the bands first full length record – an 11 track journey articulating both the lows of self-deprecation and the highs of self-realization. Two weeks after its completion, the world shut down, but LATEWAVES never hit the pause button. Determined to come out on the other side, a year’s worth of prep and patience paid off as the band signed with Know Hope Records to debut their LP “Hell To Pay” in June, 2021.https://www.latewaves.com/

Blaque Dynamite ~ Corey Bernhard’s Eternity Ensemble
AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PMShow: 8:00 PM Blaque DynamiteBlaque Dynamite, a.k.a. Mike Mitchell, has given validity to the cliche that age is nothing more than a number. He began drumming at age 2, played in his first live recording session at the ripe young age of 7, and had acquired a roster of drum company endorsements by the time he turned 11 years old. Young Dynamite gained his early development and exposure to music in a church setting. At an early age, he began to create his own music which in turn fueled his relentless passion and respect for the drums. Inevitably, he had become very interested in the pursuit of expanding his knowledge of music and honing his craft. At twelve, he embarked upon the study of music theory. At fourteen, he found himself in the hallways of the renowned Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts in Dallas, Texas in 2009. The school also fostered the amazing talents of Norah Jones, Erykah Badu, and the late Roy Hargrove. Simultaneously, Dynamite took full advantage of attending workshops, master classes, and clinics at colleges and universities all over the country during the summer breaks between tours. Being gifted to play all genres, Dynamite has been the recipient of a host of accolades and prestigious awards. He has received 14 DownBeat Music Awards and his impressive performance credits include Grammy award-winning artists Christian McBride, Erykah Badu, Thundercat, Michael McDonald, Bob Mintzer, Chrisette Michele, Kamasi Washington, and the legendary Clark Sisters. In 2012, he was selected to perform on a global stage at the inaugural International Jazz Day Celebration with one of the most influential artist of all time, the iconic Herbie Hancock. Shortly after, Dynamite was reigning the drum throne for the living legend, virtuoso bassist, composer, Stanley Clarke. Then, he graduated high school! (Class of 2013) Fast forwarding, the Grammy nominated artist Blaque Dynamite has toured five of the seven continents of the world. In 2015, he released his debut album entitled “WiFi” with Dallas-bred band, Raché. His collaborations with artists such as Christian Scott, Derrick Hodge, Doobie Powell, Kierra Sheard, Willow Smith, Talib Kweli, and Jon Bap have been the catalyst in the making of a new band leader. On April 10th, 2020, Blaque Dynamite released his third album, “Time Out” on Dolfin Records, an independent record label out of Dallas. Corey Bernhard’s Eternity EnsembleFrom touring with superstar jam fusion group Snarky Puppy or hip-hop icons Pusha T and Talib Kweli, to backing up Ed Sheeran on SNL or playing duo with Ariana Grande live on MTV, to playing experimental sets with members of The War on Drugs, to writing and producing with Philadelphia legends Bilal and DJ Jazzy Jeff, it’s hard to fathom how Corey Bernhard has time to show up at his day job as keyboardist on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. One thing is certain: Bernhard is one of his generation’s most dynamic (and busiest) musicians. Hailed by Okayplayer as a “pillar of the Philadelphia music scene,” his solo debut Fool’s Pirouette was released in January 2022 and was featured on NPR’s notable new music playlist. Reviewing his pandemic era collaboration with friend and Philadelphia rapper The Bul Bey, SWTS (2020), WXPN raved that the duo “tackles big themes to a beautiful score.”
