Looks like we're in for a cooler, cloudier weekend, which is kind of perfect for gathering together and making sweet sounds.

“Next to jazz music, there is nothing that lifts the spirit and strengthens the soul more than a good bowl of chili.” - Harry James

See ya Sunday. Mazz & Rob will keep us warm and sunny, promise.

Heya friends and delightful humans! Just a heads up: besides howling at the moon and cuddling with our pack, we've got some other fun projects cooking that you should know about.

MAKE MUSIC PHILLY is a great, completely free, one day DIY festival each JUNE 21 (the summer solstice!) that celebrates making, listening, and exploring music in all its forms and functions. You can sign up to be a performer or a venue, and we even have matchmaking capabilities if you need one or the other. You'll be listed and mapped on the website, and part of an international movement celebrating music.

THAT SOUNDS PRETTY AWESOME. Check it out. If you're interested in volunteering in some other way or have any ideas, definitely reach out! We'd love to hear from you.

Make Music Day is a live, free musical celebration on June 21, the longest day of the year, with concerts on streets, sidewalks, and parks across the city.
