Growing up in the Brandywine Valley of southeastern Pennsylvania, Phil Minissale began listening to Elizabeth Cotton, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, Jorma Koukonen and Gary Davis at a very young age. His understanding of the music and its patterns is as complete as it is for musicians two or three times his age. Out on the circuit, Phil has attracted the attention of many veteran musicians as he continues to expand his audience and appeal. Having already shared the stage with John Hammond, Paul Geremia, Steve Forbert, Little Toby Walker, Hubert Sumlin, Bill Morrissey, and Eilen Jewel; he is now sought after as a feature performer, and rightly so, having been reviewed by magazines, radio DJs, music venues and writers across the United States, Europe and Australia.

Grounds & Sounds features the best in live acoustic music in a casual, comfortable atmosphere.  Enjoy gourmet coffee, pastries and desserts.  Bring a bottle of wine and we’ll pour it for you – fruit and cheese plates are available, too.
