Instead of an Artist of the Month for August, we’ve got an event of the month: Brett Fest! This all-ages benefit concert is on Friday August 16th at World Cafe Live in Philly and all proceeds go to the family of Brett Talley to assist with his medical expenses. Brett was recently diagnosed with chronic myelogenous leukemia, and the music scene that he has loved and contributed to for years [through his work with Ike, Outset and other bands] has decided to give back and help him out with this show.
The lineup includes reunion sets by Ike and Pawnshop Roses, John & Brittany, Matt Duke, The Better Half, and a whole bunch more. Get the full lineup and get tickets in advance on the Facebook event page. Every Wednesday this month we’re spinning a song from a different band on the lineup – today we played “Everything You Love” from Ike. See you at WCL next Friday!
