November 9, 2026 7:00-8:30PM Women in Rhythm: New Moon Drumming Ceremony

 

You're invited to the thriving community that is Philly's Women in Rhythm!

Under November’s new moon, tap into your own inherent power and energy through rhythm in community with other women. Expressing ourselves within the brave container we create as a group, we'll each use the tools that speak to us most. Choosing from drums, shakers, your body's movement and more, we'll conjure a shared energy of the divine feminine to uplift our individual and collective voices.

RhythmetriX's own Megan Swindro will lead this gathering monthly on the full or new moons. She'll supply all the instruments and hold space for magic!

Transportation Logistics:
Plentiful free parking is available in the large lot on site.

Location is serviced by SEPTA Bus Routes 53, 65, and 71, plus Regional Rail (Tulpehocken Station).

More Info:
No prior drumming experience necessary to be a part of our circle!
Weather permitting, we'll be outside. If the weather is fussy, we'll be indoors at the same address.

Upcoming Dates for Women in Rhythm:
Monday, November 9: (New Moon)
Tuesday, December 8: (New Moon)

November 8, 2026 7:30PM Breakwater at City Winery Philly

 

Breakwater

City Winery Philadelphia presents Breakwater live on November 8th at 7:30pm.

On the third day of 2010, a nearly impossible dream became a reality -- Breakwater reunited. Five of the original eight band members gathered at World Cafe Live in Philadelphia for a homecoming that was 30 years in the making. Breakwater's dedicated fans had longed for a reunion ever since Splashdown prematurely concluded the band's story in 1980. "Breakwater is part of the culture in Philadelphia," explains bassist Steve Green. "There's an age group of people who grew up with our band." Playing before a sold-out crowd, Breakwater reassumed their place on the mantle as one of Philadelphia's most beloved homegrown bands.

Long before Breakwater doused listeners with their fusion of funk, jazz, and soul, they were young musicians carving a niche in Philadelphia's fervent music scene.

Live music with Rodrigo Ávalos, Alejo de Los Reyes and guests

Philly Tango Lab is a small group of volunteers that aims to create events in which tango dancers, musicians and general audience can experience the full extent of tango culture, as it is still alive in Buenos Aires, not only on Milongas (tango dances), but in small cafes in which singers connect with a devout audience, in the long rehearsals of the "Orquestas Típicas" (the tango Big Bands), in the connection between the musicians, dancers and audience, and, most of all, like it's enjoyed among friends in a party.

We aim to contribute to the promotion of tango music by teaching the fundamentals of tango playing to musicians and creating Tango ensembles directed by musicians with known expertise on Tango music.

On our monthly event at the gorgeous premises of the Ethical Society pf Philadelphia on Rittenhouse Square, we offer a workshop for musicians, from 3 to 5pm, and a concert open to those who want to listen and/or dance to Tango music, featuring the Maestros, the ensemble, and special guests, as well as a mini jam session.

Registration for the workshop can be done writing to the musical director, Alejo de los Reyes: contacto@alejodelosreyes.com
Scores for the workshop are available for all instruments.

This month we'll have the visit of Rodrigo Ávalos (bandoneón), recenlty moved to New York from Buenos Aires.

General admission is $30, there's paid parking around the area.
