Low Cut Connie Album Release Party with Adam Weiner

We’re kicking off our 10th anniversary week on Tuesday, August 22nd at 6 p.m. with a Low Cut Connie “Art Dealers” Album Release Party with a special appearance by Adam Weiner.

Pre-order the new record, their seventh studio album, and hear some of the latest album tracks! There’s no need to register. The first 50 people to arrive will receive a wristband for entrance.

 

Based out of Philadelphia, Low Cut Connie has become the alter ego for frontman, pianist, and songwriter Adam Weiner. Beginning as an impromptu recording session in 2010, Low Cut Connie gradually evolved into a vehicle for Weiner’s songwriting and his onstage persona. The band has earned praise for its high-energy live performances from The Philadelphia Inquirer, WXPN, Los Angeles Weekly, and NPR Music to name a few.

 

Low Cut Connie has also gained notoriety for attracting high-profile endorsements such as a surprise inclusion on Barack Obama’s Spotify Summer Playlist in 2015, and a personal association with Elton John, who has called the band one of his favorites.

 

The band recently performed at WMMR’s MMRBQ, Downstage @ the Mann with Chill Moody, a concert which explored the intersection of hip-hop, rock, and visual art, and they’re on the Sunday lineup of the XPoNential Music Festival in September.
