Seltzer said he’s been trying to add Dr. Dog and The Wonder Years since he started booking the festival in 2018. For the Matt Quinn solo set, he said it’ll be one “no one’s ever seen” from the Mt. Joy frontman and will feature SNACKTIME acting as his horn section and “Philly Music Fest alum that are flying up from Nashville to sing.”
“It’s really kind of relaxing and it’s enlightening to kind of get out of the machine that is Mt. Joy and to kind of express himself in an individual capacity,” Seltzer said. “I think it’s really important to give a musician like that the space and the stage to say, ‘Hey, I’m a human. I’m Matt Quinn, and this is a bunch of songs that I’m into.’”
Saturday, Oct. 18, will feature Chioke, who will perform alongside a female-fronted lineup headlined by former “American Idol” contestant Catie Turner. After having rocked out stages at South by Southwest and the Roots Picnic, the Philly-based singer said she feels “very fortunate to do so much with my music career in a little amount of time.”
“Just highlighting women and what we bring to this city — what we’re doing, it’s super important,” she said. “Everyone that is on the bill is very unique, very in their own sound, in their own light, and I just honor that. I think that’s beautiful.”
