indie @ the abbey is Harrisburg's home for indie rock. 2 touring bands played every Wednesday this fall at Appalachian Brewing Company's Abbey Bar. We are hibernating for the winter and should be back in the spring. Message us with booking inquiries.
This is a joint venture between Jersey Mike Presents, Instrumental Analysis and WiAB Records. Our friends at 717 Tattoo are sponsoring. The goal is to bring some of the best touring and regional indie rock bands to town and to help foster the growth of an indie scene in southcentral Pennsylvania.
Any bands that are interested in playing or have any questions, can contact us by e-mail.
What People Are Saying:
"In the ever changing and evolving music scene in Harrisburg, it’s great to see collaborative projects come together and bring something unique to the local area." -HarrisburgNightlife
"Starting Sept 12, Harrisburg is gonna get a full 1/7th better, with Indie @ the Abbey. Every Wednesday, at ABC Brew, good indie bands from out of town are playing. So, Wednesday in Harrisburg will go from basically nothing to see, to something to see every Wednesday night. Check out the bands they got coming in, the myspace is up to date. Good stuff." -PA Rocks

"To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget." *Arundhati Roy*
