    Accordion troubadour Jason Webley is returning to Philadelphia for a special performance with Eliza Rickman and This Way to the Egress on May 22. Since his beginnings as a street performer, Webley has built a loyal following around the globe with his uninhibited live performances. His relentless touring schedule has taken him to over 30 countries, most concerts ending with the entire crowd locked arm-in-arm, swaying and singing. The Seattle Times describes Webley as "one of Seattle’s most talented musicians, a singer-songwriter with a rare gift for crafting timeless songs that approach Waits and Leonard Cohen territory." Webley has released six albums and numerous collaborations on his own record label, Eleven Records. He organizes and headlines the annual Monsters of Accordion tour and has shared the stage with the likes of The Avett Brothers, Devotchka and Regina Spektor. Webley also performs as one-half of the duo Evelyn Evelyn with Amanda Palmer of The Dresden Dolls.
