Out of Service is an indie rock outfit from the South Jersey/Philadelphia area. Out of Service is Mike Capuano (vocals), Bryan Williams (guitar), Ken Bond (drums), and Brian McGovern (bass). The band released its first full-length album, Morning, in 2018. Soon after the release, Radio 104.5 Philadelphia selected Out of Service as a top 4 Philly-area band based on the strength of their regional fan base. Building upon this success, the band completed their sophomore effort which dropped in late 2019. The album was mixed by Nathan Hussey (All Get Out). It is a synthesis of the band’s raw emotional energy and indie sensibilities. The first single, “Stories”, features Madeline Finn (Envoi) who blends her soaring vocals to amplify the emotive energy of the song.
At live shows, Out of Service has built a loyal following as the result of their dynamic brand of intensity and musicianship. The band has been booked at some of the most storied Mid-Atlantic venues with acts like Mat Kerekes (Citizen), All Get Out, Shortly, and Valencia.

The trio will consist of Brian Betz, guitar, Behn Gillece, vibraphone and Steve Varner, bass. Original composition along with jazz standards will be performed.
Rob Curto, accordion
Rob Curto forges diverse strands of traditional knowledge into a uniquely American style of accordion-driven Roots music. His sound is both elemental and sophisticated; drawing oxygen from his father’s great love of the music of Count Basie and Lester Young, informed by decades spent firing up nightly Brazilian dance parties, and more recently defined by fingers forming detailed melodies that draw from the deep vein of Irish traditional music. Rob is a recipient of the 2023 Traditional Arts Apprenticeship Grant from the Pennsylvania Council for the Arts, which provides funding to further deepen his study of the Irish button accordion alongside his teacher and mentor Billy McComiskey.
Melissa Brun, cello, is a freelance and teaching artist in Phoenixville, PA. She hosts a private teaching studio of 30 students from her home, teaches at Waldron Mercy Academy, and manages the Chester County Youth Orchestra. Additionally, Melissa is a String Clinician and Outreach Supervisor for D’Addario Orchestra, where she presents virtual workshops to students and educators about strings, the string-making process, and how to make educated string choices. Melissa is also a member of the Irish trio Maggie’s Boots, and half of the creative writing team and performer for the children’s music group The Big Idea Committee. Follow Melissa on social media (FB: Melissa Brun, IG: @CelloGal), or visit her website (www.melissabrun.com) for more information.
Doug Hirlinger is a multidisciplinary artist focused on drum set and vibraphone performance, composition, electronic music creation and creative coding, individually and in multiple combinations.
Doug has performed throughout the United States and Europe with many musicians and ensembles of note. In 2018 Doug completed an artist residency at the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts, resulting in a 10-piece suite exploring gentrification, inequality, and musical legacy in Philadelphia with collaborators Ursula Rucker, M’Balia Singley, Tim Motzer, and John Swana. In the summer of 2022 Doug was commissioned to write Water Speaks along with Keisha Hutchins Hirlinger by Philadelphia Jazz Project as part of "POOL: A Social History of Segregation", an exhibit at the Philadelphia Water Works. Doug creates electronic music under the name Man From Nowhere.
Billy McComiskey, Irish button accordion, guest artist
“Billy McComiskey is the finest and most influential B/C box player ever to emerge from the US. In that sense, Billy’s place within the transatlantic pantheon of Irish button accordionists is both high and secure, and Outside The Box will only strengthen that judgment.”
– Earle Hitchner, The Wall Street Journal / Irish Echo
Billy McComiskey is a highly regarded player and composer of Irish traditional music. A Brooklyn native, he started studying accordion with the late Sean McGlynn from Galway in his early teens. He won the All-Ireland Senior title in 1986. He formed and played with two legendary trios: Washington DC’s Irish Tradition and the internationally acclaimed Trian. He is known on both sides of the Atlantic as an indefatigable session player, teacher, and promulgator of the music. Recently recognized as a Master Artist through the Pennsylvania Traditional Arts Apprenticeship grant
