Ginger and The Schnappes Share the Love with All Original Jazz Record “Social Music”  

Media Contact: maryellen450@gmail.com 

BETHLEHEM, PA – Social Music, the first all original full length album release by Pennsylvania six piece jazz band Ginger and The Schnappes, is about reconnecting with the power of song. 

“Social music is listening to the stereo, the cassette player, the radio, the concert or a streaming device with others and experiencing the music together. “Shh, listen, this is my favorite part,” and now your favorite part becomes your friend’s favorite part,” said Ginger Brew, the band’s stylish chanteuse. 

“Social music is shared. Was there ever a better expression of your love for someone then to hand them your personally curated mix-tape? “Here, share my universe with me.”

Social Music is engaging and sometimes indicative of the band’s Pennsylvania roots; take the song 309 for instance. It’s about all the quirky and fun places along PA Route 309 from Philadelphia to Tunkhannock. If you’re from around there you’ll know those stops and end up sharing your own stories of trips along that road.

Porters’ Pub recently visited Nello’s Speciality Meats in Nazareth, Pennsylvania to tour the facility and talk shop with Nello himself.

Tunes at Twilight Returns to Downtown Bethlehem, Pennsylvania

Tunes at Twilight (www.TunesatTwilight.com) returned to downtown Bethlehem on May 6, 2021 with a few twists.

Firstly, there will be multiple performers each Thursday through July 22. Secondly, they will perform at different locations downtown during the evening.

So, you can bop around to different spots and hear different music, or just saddle up and catch your favorite all night long (well, until 8:30 p.m. for now. Starts at 5:30 p.m.)

Take a look at opening night!

Lehigh Valley COVID-19 Zoom Interviews (A Year Later)

Starting on March 13, 2020, Lehigh Valley with Love went into lockdown along with much of the rest of the Lehigh Valley.

For a few months leading into summer we put together more than 100 videos with local restaurant owners, students, politicians, friends, and even some celebrities!

While the circumstances for this series weren’t exactly something we would have had in mind, we’re fortunate to have been able to speak with so many amazing people during a really weird time in all of our lives.

Thank you for your support in the last year.

Bethlehem Christmas Tree Toss for Charity 2020

While we couldn’t hold the Christmas Tree Toss in person this year, we were able to team up with More Miles Automotive and the Bethlehem Mounted Police Unit to throw a ceremonial toss as we continue to raise money for Turning Point of the Lehigh Valley.

Thank you to everyone involved in keeping this tradition alive.

PLEASE DONATE here: https://t.co/bHr4bBBFh3?amp=1 Help More Miles Automotive meet or exceed the amount that they raised last year, which was $1,800.

The money raised from this event helps us to continue provide our life-saving services for domestic intimate partner abuse survivors. Since the pandemic, we have seen a humongous increase in the need for our services – 24/7 helpline, emergency safe house shelter, empowerment counseling, and legal advocacy for PFA (Protection From Abuse) orders.
