From the band that brought national attention to Philadelphia's pop music scene, The Hooters' David Uosikkinen is recording what he feels, are the Essential Songs of Philadelphia. Uosikkinen chose to revisit songs recorded in Philadelphia or written and performed by Philadelphians. These essential songs will feature the band ITP (In The Pocket), a rotating line up of Philly's most respected musicians.
A portion of IN THE POCKET's proceeds will benefit Philadelphia's Settlement Music School, whose alumni includes some of the city's most beloved residents including Kevin and Michael Bacon, G. Love, Stanley Clark and Kevin Eubanks.
