In the Indiestry: The Guild’s Nick Fanelli

DIY concert promoting collective The Guild has been working hard this past year bringing homegrown and out-of-town emerging acts together, while helping to foster the Philly music community. And as you’ll learn from our interview with Guild co-founder Nick Fanelli, there has been rarely any time for the group to let loose during the 100+ shows that they’ve put on this year. Well, with tonight’s Misfits Under Mistletoe: The Guild’s 2013 Holiday Party at The Fire, the guys will finally get a chance to relax and get “dumber” with the rest of their friends and family. The special event will feature Band From The Back Porch, who is made up of members from The Menzingers, Luther and Timeshares covering Saves the Day’s Stay What You Are in its entirety, Too Hectic: A Tribute To Operation Ivy, with members of Paint It Black, Armalite, Yo Man, Go! and NONA, and The Guild Family Goddamn Cover Band, who will be laying down the instrumentals for some serious karaoke. Yeah, you can bet that there will be a lot of like-minded, drunken folks in a big group sing-along, but before you go hoarse from this free evening of fun, please check out our interview with Fanelli and learn more about him and The Guild HERE.
