A benefit concert of contemporary secular music featuring four local bands will be held at Grace Epiphany Church, 224 E. Gowen Ave. in East Mount Airy on Saturday, September 3.

On stage will be NWX, local teen songwriter Mack Finkel, folkie Art Miron and Philadelphia’s own metal band, Gray Fox.

NWX is group of 50-somethings who met in high school and 20-somethings who went to college together. Their eclectic stylings range from blues, jazz, reggae, country to rock and R&B. NWX were the opening band at the Mt. Airy Night Market and have also played recently at the High Point Sunday Market.

Finkel plays guitar, percussion, harmonica, and sings in an acoustic, one-man band in genres that include folk, rock, blues and alternative.

Miron delights audiences with his mix of folk, country and pop traditions.

Gray Fox combines metal-inflected blues and modern garage-rock with progressive original songwriting to create a distinctive, infectious sound.

The event begins at 7 pm and is expected to last until about 10.

The Social Justice/Outreach Committee at Grace Epiphany is sponsoring the concert. Admission is $5 with all proceeds going to benefit the Teshaq Primary School in Mali and the St. James School in Philadelphia. Refreshments will be sold at the concert which will be in the Cline Auditorium at Grace Epiphany.
