Brass Band, Snacktime – Will Play Free Concert Before Narberth Fireworks

The Philly-based band Snacktime played a live concert on June 17 as part of the WXPN Free at Noon series. 

John Vitesse wrote about Snacktime on XPN.org –

Better than a shot of espresso, the Philly-based brass band Snacktime brought enough energy to rival an elementary school on the last day before summer break. The seven-piece band played a selection of tunes from their upcoming record Sounds from the Street: Live and concluded with a grandiose rendition of Prince’s “Purple Rain.”

Snacktime started during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, which put many musicians out of work. But that did not stop sousaphone player Sam Gellerstein — he called up his friends and assembled a brass band to play out on the streets all around the Philly region. With their infectious energy, it was inevitable they would make a splash so early on in the band’s life.

These Garments Have Been Politically Maligned

Most non-Arabs who wear the keffiyeh do not intend it to be Anti-Semitic in any way. They wear it as an expression of sympathy for Palestinian civilians, support for human rights, concern about war, or identification with a broader cause of national identity and self-determination. In their minds, it is directed toward Palestinians, not against […]

What Does My Fountain Pen Have In Common With The Former Lord & Taylor In Bala Cynwyd?

Both come out of the work of Raymond Loewy and his design firm. Raymond Loewy (1893–1986) helped define what modern America looked like in the mid-20th century. Through his design firm, he worked across an unusually wide range of industries—transportation, consumer products, branding, and architecture—often simultaneously. No one in history is more closely associated with […]

January 16-18: The Philly Pen Show — A Delightfully Analog Experience

f you’re looking for a break from screens, alerts, and endless scrolling, the Philly Pen Show might be the cure—at least temporarily. It’s an unapologetically analog event: pens, paper, ink, and the people who still care deeply about them. Whether you’re a serious collector, someone who misses the feel of writing by hand, or just […]
