Emily Drinker
Emily Drinker is an independent singer-songwriter from Philadelphia. Her soulful brand of folk, pop, and rock goes down smooth, whether she’s performing with her powerhouse band, the Funky T, or in a more intimate format, incorporating live looping. Emily’s song “5th Ave” won Song of the Year at the 2024 Hometown Hero Homey Awards (on Delaware Public Media), and the song was a finalist in the 2023 John Lennon Songwriting Contest. Her 5-piece band has played at many regional festivals including Musikfest, the Wayne Music Fest, and the main stage at the Philadelphia Folk Festival, and they were recently named “Best Band” at the 2024 Homey Awards. Emily has opened for Pat Benatar, Rufus Wainwright, Switchfoot, Bakithi Kumalo, and JD Souther, among others. In addition to a busy performance schedule in Philly and its surrounding areas, Emily enjoys working as a session vocalist, performing in half a dozen local bands, and sharing exclusive content with her lovely community on Patreon. She is passionate about a group for women in the Philly music scene that she leads (the Calliope Coalition), and she hosts “The Smiling Banjo Podcast,” a video podcast about the Philadelphia Folk Festival featuring interviews with some of the festival’s recent performers. Emily is currently performing live every night on Virgin Voyage’s luxury ship the Scarlet Lady, traveling all over the Mediterranean this summer!

Stefan Weiner
Stefan Weiner is an NYC-based queer indie folk singer-songwriter. He mixes the immediacy of classic songwriting with the intimacy of a quiet conversation with a friend. He was a Top Shelf finalist in NPR’s Tiny Desk Contest 2024. Stefan’s work has received critical acclaim in publications like Forbes, The Advocate, American Songwriter, among many others. He has also shared the story of his journey through medical mystery and back to music on various podcasts such as This Is Actually Happening and RISK!
Through his music, Stefan creates space for people to access a deeper vulnerability. He is open and honest about his experiences with chronic pain, love, loss and his queer journey. Audience members often approach Stefan after shows to share stories from their own lives and tell him how much they connected to a certain song or how a lyric brought them to tears. Stefan has also found some viral fame through a series of bawdy gay folk songs for social media, continuing to put his queerness in the foreground, but with a little humor too. How Lucky You Are, Stefan’s debut full-length album, came out this past May on Better Company Records.
Emerson Woolf
Emerson Woolf is a New Jersey-based songwriter whose solo performances blur the lines between Americana and indie pop. With lyrics that explore love, the comedy of life and the search for belonging, her performance is both emotive and energetic. Best known as the frontwoman of Emerson Woolf & the Wishbones, she brings the same intimate storytelling and sharp lyricism to the stage on her own—offering a stripped-back but no less powerful version of the songs that have been turning heads since the band’s debut EP Not a Good Woman.
