Adam Weiner's raucous rock and roll band is featured on the final day of WXPN's Camden music fest, and their upcoming music doc screens at the Philadelphia Film Festival in October.
And on Dec. 30 and New Year’s Eve, the full LCC band will reconvene at Ardmore Music Hall to close out the year.Music under quarantine: How Adam Weiner of Philly’s Low Cut Connie became a live streaming starWeiner, 43, explained over a breakfast at the Penrose Diner, is inspired in part by the years he spent living in Manhattan at the turn of the century.
“I formed this slightly perverse rock and roll style that I’ve been trying to get back to for a long time,” he said. “That was me being exposed to the world of transgender people at a very young age.” The sweet and tender “Wonderful Boy,” in which he hits the upper reaches of his vocal range, “is a gay bar song. That’s me trying to write songs that I could go into that bar and play, that would work in that setting.”Art DealersSongs like “Whips and Chains” and “The Party’s Over,” look even further back to the denizens of the 1970s downtown Manhattan demimonde when it was inhabited by “art dealer” heroes of Weiner’s like Debbie Harry and Lou Reed whose spirits suffuse the album.
In the film, Weiner describes himself as “very Jewy,” before performing “King of the Jews,” a song that’s anstandout. The documentary includes scenes from a benefit for the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh that Low Cut Connie played in 2018.
