PASA House Concert Series

One of the longest running house concert series in the Philadelphia Area, for more than 20 years, PASA has presented its members in a true house concert setting. Since its creation by Rob Lincoln in 2000, more than 150 different performers have performed as a co-headliner.

Each concert features three PASA members as co-headliners, plus 8 to 12 "Open Chair" performers. Anyone who wants to play an original song can be an Open Chair performer. These shows are in round robin format, one song at a time and the Open Chair slots not only begin the show but also occur at the end of every round. There are usually seven rounds with an intermission in the middle.

Performers:

Dave Fiebert

Singer-songwriter and guitarist Dave Fiebert is a product of the '60s. He and his writing partner, percussionist Walt Haake (now a DJ for WDVR in New Jersey), have been writing songs since 2009. They were classmates and bandmates in the early '70s in college. Their material is influenced by such artists as Cole Porter, Guy Clark, Greg Brown, Dave Olney, and Bob Dylan. You can find Dave playing at the Coffee Beanery in Media, PA, on Tuesday Open Mics, and from May to November playing in rotation at The Swarthmore Farmers Market on Saturday mornings.

Jessica Graae

Jessica Graae blends her folk-rock style and classical training to create haunting, soulful songs. Her evocative, lush, exquisite vocals, accompanied by elegant and impressive guitar playing create a meditative backdrop on her CD Gypsy Blood. Jessica has performed live on Graffiti Radio, Hometown Heroes, at the Brandywine Festival of the Arts, and at the Dewey Beach, Bordentown, and Ladybug Festivals. Nominated for five 2013 WSTW Hometown Hero Homey Awards, Jessica was a 2013 Philadelphia Folk Factory People's Choice contest winner and a 2012 Delmarva Folk Hero contest finalist.

You: The fourth performer can be YOU! The first eight (or so) performers to sign up at the show will sing one original song as part of the concert. This is an extra special OPEN STAGE SHOWCASE OPPORTUNITY, so bring along any instruments you'll want to play. The first people to arrive get to sign up first. The open stage slots often fill up, so come early to get a slot.
