Revered regionally, respected nationally for their extraordinary live performances, SPOKEN HAND has championed the organic unification of music culture traditions from around the world for 16 years. They compose completely original arrangements and present a unique sound to audiences, “the kind of rhythmic extravaganza you can listen to all day, every day, forever,” hails Philadelphia City Paper.

Tips on Getting to the Bride
We thought it would be helpful to give you a few suggestions/tips on getting here for Skins & Songs.
Located at 230 Vine Street, one block north under the Ben Franklin bridge, the Bride is positioned on a residential block between Old City and Northern Liberties. Look for the large building with mosaic tile façade (pretty hard to miss).
The easiest and most affordable way to travel to the Bride is public transportation. Septa bus routes No. 17, 33, 44, and 48 run East to West on Market Street and No. 57 runs North on 3rd Street and South on 4th Street.
If you plan to drive, plan to leave early!
If this is your first trip to the Bride, you need to know street parking is limited and sometimes very frustrating. We recommend that you give yourself an additional 25 minutes time for street parking to ensure you arrive with ease and on time. If you plan to use a parking garage, we still suggest that you leave earlier than later. Click this link to find a google map of several parking destinations conveniently located in walking proximity to the Bride. Note: If you are looking for a nice parking discount and don't mind walking a few blocks the AutoPark at Independence Mall Garage, 41 North 6th Street, has a $5 flat rate parking on Friday and Saturday evenings.
There will be concessions provided by Leotah's Place, so bring some cash to get some tasty treats before the show.
See you at the Bride!
