A genuinely fun-loving experimental ensemble from New Jersey.
Dave Hause’s songs have always been rooted in tangible reality—of emotion, of environment, of circumstance. Since releasing his debut album, Resolutions, in 2011, the Philadelphia-born songwriter has poured his whole heart, soul and life into his music. That’s no different on Drive It Like It’s Stolen, his sixth full-length. Its 10 songs overflow with Hause’s trademark urgency and passion, shimmering with a truth that reflects the harsh realities of life in this day and age, as well the intermittent jolts of joy that punctuate it.
“John Gallagher Jr. and his band
celebrate the release of his new album
“Goodbye or Something”
Acclaimed singer-songwriter and celebrated actor John Gallagher Jr. will release his third album, the confessional, cathartic and emotionally charged Goodbye or Something on June 28 via Grand Phony Music. Gallagher’s most personal and profound LP to date, Goodbye or Something is a heart-wrenching and sometimes humorous reflection on lost love and the power of music, familial bonds and a good meal to see us through. Taking inspiration from Prine, Costello, Springsteen, Westerberg and Schlesinger, Gallagher’s music is raw, honest, and heartfelt.
Join John as he celebrates the release of his new album, “Goodbye or Something” Aug 9th, at John and Peter’s in New Hope, PA.

Born and raised on a small farm in Lee County Iowa, a love of the land has always been an important part of William Elliott Whitmore’s life. An appreciation for nature and its cycles being taught from an early age. That awareness of birth and death is a constant theme in the songwriting, through a lens of hopefulness and acceptance. These things unify us as people, a theme that is often explored in the music. With a banjo, guitar and kick drum, Whitmore seeks to convey these ideas. For over twenty years he has traveled the world, performing everywhere from Rome, Italy to Rome, Georgia. He’s played basements, backyards, festival stages, and Carnegie Hall, and has no plans to stop anytime soon. “Life is hard, nasty, and unforgiving at times”, Whitmore says, “but it’s beautiful too, and music can be a reminder of what we all have in common, a desire to keep putting one foot in front of the other.”
Featuring two of Connecticut’s hardest working musicians, P(x3) was founded by drummer Rob Madore and keyboardist/saxophonist Isaac Young. The duo pushes the boundaries of modern dance music, funk, hip-hop, and more in a fully improvised setting. Both Madore and Young have a deep intrinsic connection on stage that sometimes represents a two-headed musical beast bringing a mind-bending live show that has left audiences slack-jawed and awestruck. Both musicians have carved a name for themselves in the regional and national music scene and are now taking their collaborative efforts to a new level. Their latest release, “Piano Percussion Planet” features guitarist, Thomas Xavier Kenney of the band Doom Flamingo — an album that further showcases the diverse musical prowess of this dynamic outfit.
