We caught up with them during a show at The General Lafayette Inn, in Lafayette Hill, PA.
Here is some more information as provided by the group.
The Philly Folk Parade is a sounding bell of human musical freedom and a celebration of brotherly love! Made of the intermingling inspirations and revelry of 30 to 40 Philadelphia artists, it is absolutely alive with the sounds of people power - a stage busting full of stomps, claps, choirs, and movement. The Philly Folk Parade is organized around the premise that building community empowers everyone, and to that end, the collective is responsible for a series of large concerts and a tour with the aim of showcasing to the world the incredibly vibrant music scene of Philadelphia and the flourishing new folk movement blooming in its streets.
Organized by local 'folk stars' the Spinning Leaves and Hezekiah Jones, the Folk Parade's Fire residency will provide a rotating cast of local musicians sharing the stage for four memorable nights of independent music. A different local artist will host each date of the residency, with the Great Unknown hosting on 5/4, the Spinning Leaves on 5/11, Chris Kasper on 5/18 and Hezekiah Jones on 5/25. An early list of artists set to perform features tons of local favorites, including Cowmuddy, Hoots and Hellmouth, Joshua Park, Jim Boggia,Toy Soldiers,Wissahickon Chicken Shack, Andrew Lipke and many, many more. Don't miss out on a single night of this surely memorable residency!
