About The Band Joe
Website | Instagram | YouTube | Spotify
The Band Joe makes contemporary indie rock built on upbeat instrumentation, classic singer-songwriter lyrics, ripping guitar solos. Started in West Philadelphia in 2023 by Joe LaPree and Joe Merrill. Their debut album Dance In The Moonlight sold out its release show at The Grape Room in Manayunk, sold out Nostalgia in Fishtown and headlined the Tall Trees Music Festival. The live show is where the band is at its best, and their captivating energy is what brings people back. They are expanding regionally with a growing audience, new shows, and new songs on the way.

About Christian Sparacio
Website | Instagram | YouTube | Spotify
NJ-born, NYC-based singer-songwriter Christian Sparacio makes cinematic indie folk-rock for people who have cried in their cars but still think life is pretty great. Drawing inspiration from Sufjan Stevens, Sam Fender, Hozier, Joni Mitchell, and Paul Simon, his music blends intimate
storytelling, delightful harmonies, and a healthy dose of romanticism. His debut album, Nostalgic for Places I've Never Been, explores love, loss, and what happens when a hopeless romantic with an overactive imagination is left unattended in a Trader Joe's.
