Utah-based rock band Neon Trees is hitting the road this summer for a tour of intimate venues, including a stop at Philadelphia’s TLA July 21.

Out folk/blues singer-songwriter Jesse Lafser may be a St. Louis native, but on her latest album, “Raised on the Plains,” her heart and soul found their creative muse in a recent cross-country trip that took her through the Southwest.

As living legends go, Patti LaBelle has to be among the best.

Along with the usual list of pop and R&B icons like Aretha, Cher and Diana, LaBelle provided one of the original blueprints for damn-near every diva who has come after her looking to parlay their singing skills into greater super-stardom.

The internationally renowned music group known as Puddles Pity Party is sure to be one of the most talked-about performances at this year’s Philly Pride.
