SOLD OUT - Joan Shelley at Harmonie Hall
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.

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

Planette Automatic is an art rock band from Philadelphia led by songwriter and poet Katie Hackett.
Their dreamy melodic writing style emerged after Katie escaped a Christian cult and moved east, where she began making up for lost time and expressing her younger self in verse and song.
Shortly after arriving in Philly, she began collaborating with her current bandmates: bassist Sam Nobles from the Delaware band Mean Lady, drummer Adam Shumski, and guitarist Dan Ryan from the NYC band BODEGA.
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.
(formerly The Lunar Year)

Chioke

Cinematic and ethereal, Chioke’s alternative R&B blends psychedelic production with poetic storytelling shaped by her Philadelphia roots. Starting on SoundCloud in 2017 with her late best friend and producer, Jay Dreamer, Chioke’s music honors his legacy. Her 2024 debut at the legendary Roots Picnic marked a career milestone, shortly followed by the birth of her twin sons, a life-changing experience that deepened her artistry. With her soulful sound and emotional depth, Chioke remains a testament to resilience and evolution.

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.
