Progressive Galleries

Every once in a while a night comes along where the friends are great, the music is outstanding and the atmosphere is unforgettable, a night that leaves you complete. And let’s face it, ladies and gentlemen, times have been tough; every single one of us deserve one of those nights…

Progressive Galleries is proud to make this happen. Friday, August 21st, Progressive Galleries presents a profusion of musicians and artists all under one roof that will never be duplicated! Perkasie, Aortic Valve and Nelly Kate will fill the room with a sensory experience for the eyes and ears while the art lining the walls will add an element of intrigue and enticement.

A final stop on their national tour, this Friday Night Explosion will provide Perkasie a homecoming not to be forgotten. No stranger to the local music scene, WXPN hails Perkasie as: One of our favorite new local discoveries…. Described by the Philly Weekly as “bubblegum baroque pop,” and frequently compared to Bright Eyes, Perkasie are more Puff The Magic Dragon meets Lynyrd Skynyrd meets O Brother Where Art Thou than Woody Guthrie meets Left Banke meets The 1910 Fruitgum Company. Just the idea of that has the senses working overtime! – Bruce Warren, WXPN.

Also closing out their Northeastern tour, Aortic Valve continues the musical journey with an exploration of time, space and connectivity. Aiming to capture what is ultimately human, VjcA overwhelms the senses with the spectacle of imagery marching in the cadence of DJ Evolution’s thunderous beats. A/V provides all with a chance to experiment and react to the relationship between audio and video, presentation and creation, individual psyche and human consciousness.

Coming into town from Staunton Virginia is Nelly Kate. She will take us all on an exploration into minimalist Pop and is no stranger to the eclectic and avant garde. While she has been compared to The Blow, Mirah and Feist, Nelly brings her own style by taking certain elements of Pop and constructing experimental melodies and ballads. We are thrilled she is joining us this evening.

The musical presentation is as original as the art on the walls. 6 different artists work will be showcased and for sale on the spot this evening. The bar will be serving and the lighting will be dimmed to a fine hue. We invite you all to come out to something very special and different as this will be a night to remember. We ask you to forward this message to all who are also in need of a night like this and together, we will all blow the roof off of the place! The Cathedral Room is located on 221 North Street Hbg Pa 17101 and we ask for $5 that goes to the acts performing for the evening. This event will run from 7PM – 1AM.

Thank you,

Jonas and Walter
