Solar Myth — music venue
Solar Myth in Philadelphia has 13 upcoming shows. Next: Titan to Tachyons on Sun, Aug 30. Full calendar, lineups and tickets on Ckord.
If you are looking for a venue that perfectly marries a curated, all-day cafe vibe with an incredible ear for experimental music, you have to spend some time at Solar Myth.Located on South Broad Street in the building that formerly housed the legendary indie-rock venue Boot & Saddle, the space has been brilliantly reimagined. The front room is a beautifully laid-back cafe and wine bar. During the day, it is a fantastic spot to grab coffee and a pastry, work remotely, and listen to an incredible selection of vinyl records spinning behind the bar. By night, it transitions into an impeccably curated natural wine and craft beer bar with a warm, unpretentious, and fiercely independent atmosphere.But the real magic happens in the back room. Programmed in partnership with the Ars Nova Workshop (a legendary Philadelphia non-profit arts organization), the 150-capacity performance space is arguably the city's premier listening room for avant-garde jazz, experimental rock, and forward-thinking improvisational music. Because the room is small and laid out "shotgun style," every show feels intensely intimate. Whether you are catching a critically acclaimed free-jazz ensemble or an underground indie act, Solar Myth offers an unmatched, audiophile-approved live music experience.Local Tip: You do not need a concert ticket to enjoy the front bar! The natural wine selection here is one of the most unique in the city, making it the perfect spot to meet up with friends for a quiet drink even if you aren't staying for the gig in the back room.
Address: 1131 South Broad Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19147, United States
