Raji Malik and Adam Monaco at The Fallser
2025-10-17 20:00 - 23:00 | The Fallser Club, 3721 Midvale Avenue, Philadelphia, PA, 19129, United States
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.
