While we're unable to welcome you into our home for the holidays, we're still creating a sense of homecoming this season. With a nod to the centuries-old tradition, we're excited to bring you a series of WCL House Concerts this December! We've invited some of your favorite Philly-area artists who've played our stages countless times over the years to share their music virtually. These intimate livestream concerts will premiere on our YouTube channel, directly from the artists' homes to yours: youtube.com/c/worldcafelivePHL
WCL House Concerts will be FREE to watch, but we hope you'll consider making a donation to support independent live music. Click "Buy Tickets" or "Register" on the Eventbrite page to RSVP for a reminder email with the stream link, where you can also make an optional donation of any amount. RSVP is not required. All donations will be split between the artist and World Cafe Live's Year-End Homecoming Drive . World Cafe Live is a nonprofit and all donations are tax-deductible.

York Street Hustle
"Each week, ten musicians arrive at a former South Philadelphia funeral home where, one by one, they unload their old tube amps and vintage gear. Once inside, the classic sounds of the 1960s are reinvigorated, re-energized and reborn. Legends, like Stevie, Aretha and the Four Tops; lesser-known artists including Donny Hathaway, Arthur Conley and Betty Everett – all are given new life.

In a few short years the York Street Hustle has gone from filling tiny South Street bars to repeated sell outs of WXPN’s World Cafe Live. Their repertoire now spans over 80 songs including more than a decade worth of Detroit, Memphis and Chicago soul. This is not your typical Motown wedding band. With grit, sweat, and attention to detail, The York Street Hustle is the Northeast’s premier 10-piece 1960s soul tribute."
