Due to increasing COVID concerns, concerts and events are being cancelled at an increasing pace. Philadelphia ska act Catbite is no stranger to this, with multiple events being cancelled, including their upcoming two-date engagement along with JER and Teenage Halloween for January 7th and 8th..
Not ones to sit idly by, the band has made the proverbial lemonade by offering signed posters for the two gigs for sale, limited to 100 total and starting at $17 each (although you can pay more, if you want). All proceeds going to Project SAFE, a “Project Safe is a mutual aid harm reduction organization for women, queer, and trans people involved in the street economies of Philadelphia.”
The posters feature artwork by the talented Ilana Hope, and would make a great collector’s item even before the cancellation and subsequent autographs.
You can see a sample image below, and visit the Catbite Bandcamp page to pick one up, or check out their new album Nice One, which was released on 06 Aug 2021 via Bad Time Records.
