Jaffna has produced 2 CDs of original music and its members maintain a high level of activity in many world music projects such as Barakka, One, Hindugrass, Arehm and Atzilut.
Jaffna musicians have created a musical universe with oud, guitar, tabla, and dumbek, where they can all argue, eat and stay good friends. Along with the strong Mid-East and Indian flavor come unmistakable flamenco, rock, Balkan, and jazz influences, the result of jamming in and around the vibrant Philadelphia world music scene for years.

Go.
Your ears will thank you.
Raji Malik is a “music medicine” man who offers a transformational experience wherever he plays. He has performed and recorded hard rock and instrumental Indian-influenced music in the Philadelphia area for the past 30 years. He is self-taught and began playing the guitar at the age of 19. Raji’s initial musical influences were the great rock guitarists Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin), Jimi Hendrix, and David Gilmour (Pink Floyd). Then he discovered Shakti, featuring 3 masterful Indian musicians and guitar legend John Mclaughlin playing a modified sitar-like acoustic guitar. Raji promptly put away his electric guitar and immersed himself in the pure tones of the acoustic guitar. Raji finds deep inspiration in many brilliant “Modern Fingerstyle” guitarists, all of whom are disciples of the late Michael Hedges, who reinvented the acoustic guitar with his harmonic, percussive playing. Raji hopes that his music brings peace, healing, and inspiration.
“Adam lives what he writes and writes what he lives, allowing him to
deeply connect with those he plays for and alongside of.”
– Trevor Gordon Hall
These words will certainly ring true with anyone who has experienced folk/Americana artist Adam Monaco’s thoughtful songwriting and
poignant presence firsthand. Adam’s music is lush, colorful, melodic and takes root deep in the complex, beautiful stories that connect humanity. His lyrics resonate like a conversation with an old friend: personal, profound, engaged, and thought-provoking. His authentic performances showcase his ability to evoke the full range and complexity of human emotions; in one musical moment, he can bring audiences to tears, then lift them back up with
witty banter and a relatable anecdote.

Catie Turner

“The intimate directness of her voice suggests wisdom beyond her years.” -Time Magazine
“The intimate directness of her voice suggests wisdom beyond her years.”— TIME Magazine
Catie Turner is a Philadelphia-born and Los Angeles-based songstress who sprinkles glowing melodies over cathartic indie pop. Turner processes trauma, growing up, getting ghosted, embracing awkwardness, and living life in real-time through disarmingly confessional lyrics and nuanced songcraft in her four EPs — The Sad Vegan (2019), Heartbroken and Milking It (2021), Comedy & Tragedy Parts 1 & 2 (2023).
She first debuted on American Idol season 16 as the first artist to ever audition with an original song, and her strength as a writer and performer was immediately apparent. Her breakout hit “God Must Hate Me” has over 75 million streams and counting.
Along the way, she’s also incited the applause of TIME, Billboard, V Magazine, and American Songwriter. Her music is like the best and most honest psychotherapy session you’ve ever had — but on a merry-go-round.

Planette Automatic

Hackett has also scored for film, having been featured at the London International Animation Festival, Viet Film Fest, and MAM Festival. The band’s songs have been featured on comedian Chris Gethard’s New Jersey is the World, MTV’s Teen Mom, and Teen Mom 2.
The band, known for its unique blend of pensive piano ballads and raw indie rock, has released two albums (“Herodias” in 2017 and “Katie Bird” in 2020) and is in the process of a third.

2025-10-23 19:30 - 21:30 | Harmonie Hall, 4372 Fleming, Philadelphia, PA, 19128, United States
Joan Shelley is a songwriter and singer who draws inspiration from traditional and traditionally-minded performers from her native Kentucky, as well as those from Ireland, Scotland, and England, but she’s not a folksinger. Her disposition aligns more closely with that of, say, Roger Miller, Dolly Parton, or Tom T. Hall, who once explained—simply, succinctly, in a song—“I Witness Life.” Her 7th album Real Warmth will be released in September. It was recorded in Toronto with producer Ben Whiteley (The Weather Station), and the 13-tracks feature many guests from the city’s fertile music scene.

Flamy Grant
© Weeno Photography 2024
Award-winning and Billboard-charting artist Flamy Grant is a shame-slaying, hip-swaying, singing-songwriting drag queen from western North Carolina. Her 2022 debut record, Bible Belt Baby, was nominated for Best Pop Album at the San Diego Music Awards and was named one of the Top Ten Queer Country Albums of 2023 by Rainbow Rodeo Magazine. Flamy is a winner of the 2023 Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk Competition and a nominee for the 2023 QueerX Award for Best Drag Artist. She has been featured in Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, People, Billboard, and more. Both a powerhouse vocalist and an intrepid songwriter, Flamy blends the art of drag with her iconic folk/rock sound to create a memorable musical experience.
Flamy is the first drag performer to appear on Christian music charts, with both her song “Good Day” and her Album Bible Belt Baby reaching #1 on iTunes — the latter staying at the top for nine consecutive days. Additionally, “Good Day” debuted at #20 on Billboard’s Christian digital sales chart. Her music has over 750,000 streams on Spotify, Apple, and Amazon. Flamy has collaborated with Adeem the Artist, Jennifer Knapp, Semler, and Derek Webb. In addition to playing the New Folk winner’s showcase at the 2023 Kerrville Folk Festival, she has played Wild Goose Festival in North Carolina, San Diego Pride’s SheFest, and headlined Blount County Pride in East Tennessee, where she won a court victory after a local district attorney threatened to enforce Tennessee’s drag ban.
It’s no accident that Flamy’s drag name is an homage to Amy Grant, the undisputed queen of Christian music and 90s chart-topping pop artist. Much of Flamy’s music centers on the queer spiritual journey, telling stories of resilience and recovery from religious trauma in a world where LGBTQ+ people are frequently ignored by, harmed in, or ejected from religious spaces. With a bold lip, a big lash, and a blistering voice, Flamy drags audiences to a soulful, uplifting church of her own making. This down-to-earth diva has entertained music lovers from Los Angeles to Nashville with her funny, frank, and fabulous songs.
“Her vocals soar… A mix of Wynona Judd smokiness and Dolly Parton realness. Her lyrics sparkle as brightly as her rhinestone jumpsuit.” —Andy Kaufman, Music Connection Magazine
“A cheeky country-disco track… guaranteed to smear a smile across your face as bold as a heavy lip.” —Rachel Cholst, TheBoot.com
“Her vocals are not post-production magic… her strong voice helps carry sincere lyrics.” —Regina Elling, San Diego Union-Tribune
“Cathy, rabble-rousing folk of the Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie variety.” —Nick Spacek, The Pitch Kansas City

Heather Mae

We invite you to Heather Mae’s Double Album Release Tour at The Fallser Club. But rather than simply hosting a concert, Mae—queer indie-pop songwriter and social justice activist—will be transforming her show into a space for resilience, connection, and collective healing, creating a powerful community gathering within The Fallser Club.
Known for her powerful voice and unapologetic anthems, Heather Mae has spent 13 years touring as both an artist and activist. This immersive event includes a one-hour pre-show community gathering—a safe, empowering space for reflection and healing, where Mae, a seasoned song chant leader, leads a support circle, chant workshop, and meditation open to all ticket buyers. Following this, she will deliver a concert, debuting songs from her new double album.
Heather will strengthen community ties and promote a night of mutual care and collective empowerment.
Heather Mae is an evocative powerhouse rabble-rouser
Heather Mae, the acclaimed social justice singer-songwriter, fearlessly bares her soul in her music, creating an intimate space of shared vulnerability for her listeners. Her unbridled honesty, both on and off stage, has cultivated a devoted fanbase and garnered recognition, including accolades like the winner of the Rocky Mountain Folks Fest Songwriter Showcase and Northeast Regional Folk Alliance Artist-Activist of the Year award.
In her 2019 release, “Glimmer,” Heather Mae crafts a luminescent masterpiece, drawing parallels to vocal powerhouses Adele and Sara Bareilles. With storytelling depth reminiscent of Florence Welch, the record uniquely centers on mental health, with each lyric unveiling a portrait of resilience and self-discovery.
Positioned on the cusp of unveiling her upcoming post-pandemic double record, Mae embarked on a mission to address the stark gender disparity for music producers—a mere 4% representation by women. In 2023, Heather Mae rallied a dynamic collective of women and non-binary talents in Nashville, assembling luminaries like producer ZDAN and Lollies, alongside guest artists such as Grammy award-winning musician Allison Russell and the extraordinary duo Sistastrings. Together, they crafted two electrifying albums in two distinct genres, showcasing the unparalleled talent and versatility of women and non-binary music makers.

Philly Gumbo’s distinctive blend of New Orleans R & B, funk, reggae, blues and soul has made it a unique and popular presence on the Philadelphia music scene for thirty years. Over the years, the band has been a “Best Of” selection by Philadelphia Magazine in their annual “Best Of Philadelphia” issues as well as having played most of the top venues in the area such as The Kimmel Center, The Sellersville Theater and World Café Live and such major events as the Atlantic City Summer Jazz Festival, Musikfest, Jambalaya Jam, Jam On The River, WRTI-FM’s Groovin’ In The Park, the Media Blues Stroll, The West Oak Lane Jazz & Arts Festival and many more. Philly Gumbo has opened for such greats as Dr. John, Buddy Guy & Jr. Wells, Rick Danko & Levon Helm of The Band and Mutabaruka. Having pioneered the live music scene at the legendary South Street venue Bacchanal, Philly Gumbo was often joined by such special guests as Todd Rundgren, David Lindley, Teddy Royal of Fats Domino’s band, members of Harold Melvin & The Blues Notes’ band and others. In addition, members of Philly Gumbo have played with such legends as Little Milton, Wilson Pickett, Bo Diddley and Big Youth.
“Philly Gumbo’s long-term popularity has come from two things,” notes founding member Randall Grass: “an ability to play an authentic and unique mix of New Orleans
R & B, funk, reggae, blues and soul, and the presence of great singers, such as Brenda Smith, Walt Taylor, Jeannie Brooks, Richard Johnson, and current lead vocalist India Rex.”
Formed in late 1980, the band quickly developed a following at the Germantown club
Takers Café with a unique mix of music reminiscent of New Orleans group The Neville Brothers. As such, the group pioneered the popularity of New Orleans music in Philadelphia, with a celebrated weekly gig at Bacchanal for nearly a decade. The band released its debut single “Holy War b/w Mardi Gras” in 1984 and contributed the original song “Xmas In New Orleans” to the Seasons Greetings Philadelphia benefit CD in 1999.
Four members of Philly Gumbo—drummer Tim Hayes, bassist Bert Harris, guitarist Pete Eshelman and keyboardist Randall Grass–have been the core of the band since the beginning while saxophonist Richard Orr often sat in with the band as early as the 80’s and vocalist extraordinaire India Rex, is the latest in a long line of exceptional vocalists. The band released a new CD “Come And Get It” in 2011. A Philly Gumbo performance makes a great listening experience, with its ever-shifting mix of New Orleans R & B, blues, jazz, funk, reggae, soul, and even African music, but is equally suited for dancing.
The band appeals to a people of all ages and backgrounds. In fact, it is difficult to resist getting up and shaking your groove thing to Philadelphia’s greatest groove band!

PJ Brown and Her Resistance

Like a band of misfits heeding the clarion call of Philadelphia’s most revered musical ghosts, PJ Brown and Her Resistance assembled for the first time (feat. members of WPJO and the legendary Martha Graham Cracker) for a sold out show at World Café Live! What started as a full-steam homage to Miss Sharon Jones took a left turn when the wheels fell off and the ship lifted high above Love Park , clipping the hat off that bird-dropping-covered statue of William Penn and straight into the sun.
PJ Brown and Her Resistance continues its mission to spread love and music – To celebrate lost souls, excited shapeshifters, perennial drifters, aspiring troublemakers. and unapologetic agents of change.
It’s troubled soul music, taped-together rock and roll, basement party funk—it’s dark as night and light as day—and all of it is for you!

NEW MUSIC!

The band is excited to announce the release of two new songs, “Deeper and Deeper” and “Pink Elephants” –
