A lil throwback to one of the coolest days in @boomroomstudios history… #chubbychecker #boomroomstudios #fishtown

It was an absolute honor to host CHUBBY CHECKER at @boomroomstudios today!! At 81 he was still rocking out in rehearsal with his band and about to go on tour next week. Truly one of the greatest living pioneers of modern music and one of the warmest and kindest people I have ever worked with. The funny part is that he’s been here a bunch of times in the past but every time I saw “Chubby Checker” under “band name” on the online appointment, I figured it was just somebody joking around or some people just booking an appointment to jam that hadn’t picked a name for their band yet and they were being sarcastic…I never imagined it was the real actual Chubby Checker lol 😂 #thetwist #chubbychecker #boomroomstudios #rehearsalflow #fishtown #fishtown_philly #phillymusic #phillymusicscene #chubbychaser

September 2020. You know what was happening around then. I closed the studio (along with every other music space and venue) to follow all of the social distancing guidelines by the city health department. It was like four months straight no rehearsals, no recordings, no jams. Nobody could get together to play music anywhere. Right when the closures were lifted and everything started becoming normal again, @drouse reached out to me to have a jam session at the studio. It was an epic 3 and a half hour jam that I just posted to our YouTube page. Dan started coming to the Boom Room right when we first opened almost 15 years ago. He is an ambassador of music for Philadelphia on stages around the world and has a mission to bring people together and make true human connections through music. Super therapeutic for me that day to sit on drums w you and @shadowchenery This jam day was the light at the end of the tunnel. #boomroomstudios #phillymusic #phillymusicscene #phillymusicians @garydann

From the boom room late-night archives with the legendary Ghost-Note @ghost_note_official , joined by the one-and-only MonoNeon @mononeon ⚡️🥁🎹🎸🎷 Ghost-Note — led by heavy hitters Robert “Sput” Searight @sputacular and Nate Werth @nwerthy — always brings a level of groove and creativity that hits different. And having MonoNeon, Prince’s last bass player and a true innovator, in the room took the energy to another level. Moments like this remind us how lucky we are to have artists of this caliber choose The Boom Room as their creative home here in Philly. ❤️🎛️ Special thanks to @royalartistgroup @the_agent_af @darkstarbecky for making it happen #boomroomstudios #PhillyMusic #PhillyMusicians #RecordingStudio #StudioVibes #Fishtown #PhillyCreatives #SupportLocalMusic #PhillyArts

This one means a lot… we brought Boomin back to the place where it was originally created — @boomroomstudios in Philly — and performed it live with an incredible band of friends and collaborators. 🌌🎶 This track has gone on to get hundreds of thousands of streams and radio play around the world, so filming a live version where it all started just felt right. 🎶 Featuring: • Carter Fox – bass, loops, production • @thebasskitty – sax • @stevehonz – keys • @garydann – drums (and owner of The Boom Room) 🎥 Filmed & edited by @the_art_of_aaron If you’re into lo-fi, jazz fusion, funk, chillhop, jam vibes, cosmic grooves, or just good vibey music, this performance is for you. ✨ 🔊 Watch the full performance on my YouTube channel. And if you dig it, please like/comment/share — it really helps indie artists like me keep the cosmic journey moving. 🌌🙏
