Sofar Philly Presents Noni René

Sofar Philly presents Philly’s own, Noni René, for an Album Listening
Event on Saturday, November 28th from 1-3 p.m.

Thesis + Antithesis = Synthesis. AfroPunk alum. Guitar in hand,
truth on her tongue. Fresh off her new project NEAUX — a journey of
self-definition, soft power, and cutting what no longer serves.

She doesn’t just sing. She reclaims the room.

This is future-soul, grunge-soul, Black femme rock & soul —
stripped down Sofar style. No band. No barrier. Just you and that voice.

Come early. Stay present. You’ll be talking about this one.

More details TBA.

Join us at Jamey’s on Thursday, April 30, for a screening of an interview about the MOB and MAFIA talk with George Anastasia and John Ricciutti filmed at Villa Di Roma.

He is the author of six books, and a novella and has contributed to two anthologies of Italian American writers.

The Anastasia interview was directed by award-winning filmmaker Jill Fechie.

Vinyl Revival Movie Night at Jamey’s House of Music

Jamey Reilly of Jamey’s House of Music and Andrea DiFabio of Vinyl Revival have teamed up to present Movie Night!

Join us at Jamey’s on Thursday, January 29, for a screening of “Once in a Hundred Years: The Life & Legacy of Marian Anderson.”

Marian Anderson, whose contralto singing voice of great range dazzled international audiences, was a gifted African American woman who had to surmount innumerable, unwarranted obstacles before eventually achieving her dream.

“ONCE IN A HUNDRED YEARS” refers to the quote of the great conductor Arturo Toscanini who once told Marian Anderson: “A voice like yours is heard once in a hundred years.”

Marian Anderson’s story continues to inspire people from very different backgrounds and her achievements in overcoming bigotry have secured her a place as a true pioneer internationally and in her home town of Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love.

The filmmaker walks the streets where she lived; talks to the people who knew her, knew her family, and someone she babysat; see where she was educated and went to church; and marvel at how she was able to transcend humble beginnings to sing for tens of thousands of people, and for Presidents and queens on the world’s stages.

Director: Bill Nicoletti
Writer: Nat Gutwirth

The film won an Emmy for Outstanding Documentary and screened at 7 Film Festivals.
