COME SEE JIM HERE EVERY THURSDAY! SING ALONG! - 8:30PM-12:30AM

1939 Arch Street
Philadelphia PA 19103
(215)563-4704

Jim is happy to announce that he will be playing EVERY THURSDAY from 8:30PM to 12:30AM at the newly named "Piano Bar at 20th & Arch" ...the piano bar schedule here has shuffled a bit but you can still see owner/pianist Mike Margarite, Stu Shames, Steve Odabashian and others here weekly(give a call to see who's playing nightly)...
A NOTE TO SINGERS!!:
Jim strongly encourages singers to come out and support this great Philly piano bar. Piano bars in general have been fading away in NYC, Las Vegas, Philly--really everywhere--with the popularity of karaoke, DJ's, and other distractions--they are closing in droves--and sadly, the songs and era that made a Frank Sinatra or a Tony Bennett a household name--have no audience. THIS IS YOUR VENUE TO SHOWCASE YOUR VOICE--USE IT OR LOSE IT!! Bring your friends who like seeing you sing--spread the word. Jim was born and raised in Philly, and is proud to FINALLY play a steady gig in his own hometown. Tuesday nights will continue as "Broadway show tunes and Standards night" with new pianist Tom Adams; soon Sundays and Mondays will be developed for live music so stay tuned...let "The Piano Bar at 20th & Arch" be your venue to showcase your talents!
