i'm excited to say that philadelphia's the writers club will be visiting WQHS to join me on the first of installment of my summer show this tuesday evening (the 20th), 6-8p.
the writers club is literally a club - a group of writers and singers of various styles coming together to create some beautiful music and art - but it centers around the efforts of patrick welsh (also of tell me, bycicle and the bastilles). his work is earnest, honest accoustic folk, and throughout its stories is a subtle yet incredibly tangible nationalism. but this nationalism isn't the freedom fries-type of pride you may be tempted to assume i mean which we've become so unfortunately accustomed to in the last seven years; this is a near-nostalgic love for the essence of american identity and the spirit of its beginnings, the fabric which makes american land a unique moment in time and space.
so check out the links to the pages above and try this out, and if you like what you hear (which i suspect you will), tune in on tuesday night to hear patrick play a few songs and talk more about his music and life as a philadelphia musician. also! i believe someone will be taping the session, in which case i'll post the video here.
listen in!!
