Hi Friends,
This is going to be an active week for "blogging," as a lot of exciting things are coming up.
This is going to be an active week for "blogging," as a lot of exciting things are coming up.
First, I want to let you all know about an event happening this Friday night at Tritone: Box Five's Philly Record Release Party!
If you aren't already familiar, BOX FIVE is the "brainchild" of Mary Bichner, who describes herself as a "quirky composer and performer." The following has been said about Mary and Box Five:
"Combining Mozart-inspired chord progressions and bratty Brit-rock hooks into a musical succotash she likes to call classipop, the eccentric yet loveable redhead hopes to breathe new life into the calcified world of 'radio-friendly' contemporary music through her memorable melodies and solid songwriting."
Originally from Philadelphia, Mary currently resides in Boston, but does return for the occasional Box Five show (like this one!!) Box Five is primarily a rock band, featuring Mary of course on keyboard and vocals; however, Mary frequently asks string and woodwind quartets to perform with the band. That's where I come in, playing clarinet as part of the woodwind quartet for the shows in Philly! (And sometimes randomly in other places like Brooklyn, NY! ;)

Anyway, the band is definitely worth checking out, so if you happen to be free this Friday night, please do come out to support the release of Box Five's new album, "Leave the Earth Behind." Goli, another awesome band, will also be performing, along with a band called This Way to the Egress, who I haven't yet seen perform. The Tritone is located at 1508 South Street, only moments away from where I myself reside, so if anyone is interested in meeting up before or after, get in touch with me!
The doors open at 8:30, there is a $6 cover at the door, and you must be at least 21 years old to attend.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. I look forward to seeing lots of familiar faces out at the show!
Musically yours,
Tina
