John Gilbride is a singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who fuses Folk, Rock and Funk. An eclectic blend of collaborators from around the region comes together to form John Gilbride & Friends, bringing John’s music and lyrics to life with undeniable personality and a high energy stage show. John released his first full length studio album “Paved Roads” in 2019 with an East Coast tour to celebrate it. In May of 2021, John and the band performed and recorded a concert film and live performance album entitled “John Gilbride & Friends Live at the Waterfront South Theatre”, which includes new music and versions of previously recorded songs. This Summer, the band heads back in studio to record their second full length album and set their sites on live shows heading into the Fall and Winter!

Whether he’s serenading from behind the drums or the guitar, Rob Tait’s folk-pop style can mend the ache of a broken heart or make you stomp and holler until the sole of your shoe falls off.  Born and raised in the pine barrens of New Jersey, Rob Tait’s music combines his Americana/folk/singer-songwriter vocal style with his deep rooted love and education of rhythm and the drums. After moving to Philadelphia, Rob performed as a sideman, touring and performing with a variety of acts including and not limited to John Gilbride, Emily Drinker, Brittany Ann Tranbaugh, and more.   When the pandemic hit, Rob took the incredible opportunity to get his music polished up and start playing his music with a band.  Then, in January 2022, Rob collaborated with Matty Muir (Four Way Street, Ben Arnold) at Retro City Studios (Amos Lee, Train, Low Cut Connie) to make his first record “Here and Now”.  Rob will be releasing a single every 6 weeks, which will lead to the release of the full record in the fall of 2024.
