Tonight at Johnny Brenda’s The Head & The Hand Press, a newly-formed publishing collective, will be celebrating its recently established writer’s workshop in the Fishtown community, which will serve as a collaborative and creative space for local writers as well as an operating home base to support their upcoming novel and almanac series. This was all made possible thanks to a successful Kickstarter campaign. Helping to welcome them to the neighborhood will be the comforting, rural sounds of The Great Unknown and the sensually-charged grooves of Johnny Showcase with tunes provided throughout the evening by DJ Slowpoke (a.k.a. Birdie Busch). Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 Frankford Ave., 8pm, $8, 21+ – H.M. Kauffman
