The Fall Issue of JUMP Hits The Streets Next Week!

Sorry we’ve been pretty quiet online this week. We’ve been hustling to get the next print issue of JUMP prepared.

It is a good one. This is our “Issues” issue, where we look at what everyone is complaining about. For instance, we followed Martha Graham Cracker, the 6-foot, 2-inch tall drag queen during one of her hilarious performances. She’s had a world of controversy this year because of various things and yet, her cabaret show has probably never been more popular.

And we hung out with R5 Productions founder Sean Agnew. Sean went from throwing parties in grungy houses to running Union Transfer, and he gets all the regular sell-out criticism that comes with being successful. We explore Sean’s life over the past two decades to better understand the changes he’s made.

Also in the issue: Commonwealth Choir, Beano, Batcave Studio, Lyrispect, Koji, Billy Barton of The Charley Few, Amanda X, Little Big League, Cayetana, Hip-hop cop Howard Rubin, Gun$ Garcia, DJ Ben Arsenal, Taylor Dunn, Johnny Showcase, Tom Moon, Cookie Rabinowitz, Dockument, Pattern Is Movement, Mary Lattimore, Laser Background, Phenomenal Records, The Philadelphia Cultural Fund, Jakk Frost the chef and Brendan Mulvihill on running DIY shows.

You’ll start seeing issues around the city and region starting late next week.
