THE NATIONAL MUSEUM OF AMERICAN JEWISH HISTORY PRESENTS ‘BILL GRAHAM AND THE ROCK & ROLL REVOLUTION’
The National Museum of American Jewish History (NMAJH) in Philadelphia is the exclusive East Coast venue for Bill Graham and the Rock & Roll Revolution. On view September 16, 2016 through January 16, 2017, the exhibition presents the first comprehensive retrospective about the life and career of legendary rock impresario Bill Graham (1931–1991). Recognized as one of the most influential concert promoters in history, Graham played a pivotal role in the careers of iconic artists including the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Santana, Fleetwood Mac, the Who, Led Zeppelin, the Doors, and the Rolling Stones. He conceived of rock & roll as a powerful force for supporting humanitarian causes and was instrumental in the production of milestone benefit concerts such as Live Aid (1985)—which took place in Philadelphia and London—and Human Rights Now! (1988). The Museum will be open late on Wednesday nights (until 8 pm) throughout the run of the show.*
Bill Graham lived the American Dream, and helped to promote and popularize a truly American phenomenon: Rock & Roll. The exhibition illuminates how his childhood experiences as a Jewish emigrant from Nazi Germany fueled his drive and ingenuity as a cultural innovator and advocate for social justice. Born in Berlin, Graham immigrated to New York at the age of ten as part of a Red Cross effort to help Jewish children fleeing the Nazis. He went to live with a foster family in the Bronx and spent his teenage years in New York City before being drafted to fight in the Korean War. In the early 1960s, he relocated to San Francisco, just as the counterculture was gathering steam, and became the business manager for the San Francisco Mime Troupe, a radical theater company that performed for free in parks.

Sarantos releases a new country rock music video for his new song “Whiskey”
This funny music video centers on an alcoholic who is finally cured of his addiction when he finds the love of his life. Whiskey is replaced by a loving, caring and patient companion.
This song and video is ultimately about human weakness. We all have faults and we definitely have weaknesses. We might not always admit it but we certainly do! Some of us are addicted to alcohol, some to women, some the thrill of gambling. The temptations and vices are endless. We are human which means we are not perfect. We are all tempted by something. Maybe we have tasted it. Maybe we have never given in to it but still worry we will one day. Maybe we are actively struggling to free ourselves from its grip. Maybe we have beat it but fear a relapse. Whatever our story, this song and music video is about a man who is always deep in trouble with his addiction. Eventually, thru finding the right person, he is able to overcome his addiction. The right support system is often needed and he is lucky to have finally find one. At some point in our lives, we have all benefitted from the kindness of others. We should remember that and try to give back when we can!
SUBURBAN LIVING PREMIERE NEW SONG “LOVELY TIMES” VIA CLRVYNT
Recorded by Jeff Zeigler (The War On Drugs, Kurt Vile, Nothing), Almost Paradise is a bold and sweeping album that expands upon the bedroom dreampop of Suburban Living’s 2015 eponymous debut.

The album was written across 2015, a year after Bunch moved to Philadelphia from Virginia Beach, VA and found himself working through both a heartbreak and the sense of disjointedness that comes with relocation. The resultant Almost Paradise is a coming-of-age breakup album that looks at the loss of love and friends, and the unmoored feeling that comes with change and finding a new sense of home.
