The upcoming event — hosted by acclaimed Steel City rocker Joe Grushecky and local musician/producer Rick Witkowski — will feature collaborative performances by three Pittsburgh artists: Maddie Georgi, a budding singer; Greg Joseph, a member of pop-rock collective The Clarks; and Jeff Schmutz, a guitarist and vocalist for jam-rock ensemble Good Brother Earl.

The three musicians will play three rounds of their own songs and one round of songs they wish they had written. The song list is not predetermined, and musicians may chime in during others’ sets, creating what Witkowski deemed “a spontaneous combustion kind of thing.”

Grushecky, who said similar events have been gaining traction across the country, said that, “At its best, it’s soul-bearing, and at its worst, you get a picture of the artist.”

Tickets are $10 at www.showclix.com or at the door.
