Blues rocker Dana Fuchs, and Power-pop Supergroup The Split Squad rock Havertown!
After the second rain delay, headliner Dana Fuchs wowed the crowd with her fierce voice, backed by her rocking band. The Split Squad, put on an epic show after the first rain delay. They featured guitarist Keith Streng of The Fleshtones, lead singer/bassist Michael Giblin, formerly of The Parallax Project, guitarist Kurt Bloch, formerly of Seattle’s The Fastbacks, and drummer Brad Elvis of The Romantics.
We are glad so many of our attendees remained through the rainy evening. The 11th Annual Haverford Music Festival (a WXPN Welcomes Event) featured original music from these 16 artists, playing Jazz, Rock, Pop, Folk, and Blues! There were food booths and trucks, sponsors, vendors, kids’ activities, beer and wine gardens, and fun for the whole family!

DANA FUCHS, with her feet planted on both sides of the blues-rock divide, is one of the fiercest voices in modern-day roots music. Fuchs starred as Janis Joplin in the off-Broadway musical Love, Janis, and starred in the Golden Globe-nominated film Across the Universe.

THE SPLIT SQUAD, features guitarist Keith Streng of The Fleshtones, and lead singer, bassist and principal Michael Giblin, formerly of The Parallax Project. They will be joined for this appearance by guitarist Kurt Bloch, formerly of Seattle’s The Fastbacks, and Brad Elvis of The Romantics and The Elvis Brothers.

Multi-instrumentalist DEVIX, AKA Eric Torres, was a Top 13 finalist on NBC’s The Voice. A York, PA native, Devix writes and performs music that spans alternative, indie and pop.
