Absolute Beckman - Gunz McBeckman, Scruff & The Famous One (Mike 95) Make up Absolute Beckman. Its been about 10 years since this band of friends had played Music. These 3 started out in i-95 & then broke off into different bands around Philadelphia. They come back to the stage with catchiest pop songs three chords can handle. With an energetic stage show you haven't seen since 1998. They center their lyrics around the love of the ghetto, arctic splash, going to the corner store, bags of chips, feminism, & a man named Jay Hale.
Formerly Known - A hard working band from Abington PA, practicing weekly for the past 7 years. They are committed to an emphasis on song writing and musicianship - no gimmicks allowed. Lead by singer/songwriter/guitarist Jason Love, Formerly Known incorporates an orchestral effect - as most members indulge in multiple instruments. They recorded their first album in a professional studio as seniors in high school, this came only after winning studio time at a battle of the bands at the Trocadero Theatre. Now older and more dedicated than ever, they hope to record a second album this summer.
Please come out and support this worthy cause!
