New Year's Eve

Spend New Year's Eve with Chef Paul Roller at his Flying Fish Restaurant in historic Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia.  The ticket price of $70 includes: 3 course dinner, dessert, coffee service and a champagne toast at midnight.  Need to get home early?  Not a problem!  Enjoy your bubbly early!  The music will be continuous from 8:00pm until after the "ball drops".

Music will be provided by Reverend Chris & the High Rollers.  Performing re-arranged songs from the 1920's and 1930's with an emphasis on fonky New Orleans style piano.  The High Rollers have entertained audiences all over southeastern PA and southern NJ since their inception in 2012.  They will be promoting their debut album, Viper Mad, a 17-song collection featuring music composed between 1851 and 2013.

This year be safe: call a cab, get a room in the Chestnut Hill Hotel (just one short block away), make new friends and enjoy great food and swingin' music at Roller's Flying Fish.

Press Praise for Rev Chris & band:

"If you like music that gets your foot tapping, so much so that you cannot help but get up and dance, then you will love Viper Mad." - Emily Brooks, Life on the Hill Magazine

"On the keys, Chris has, the kind of funky feeling that boppers were just beginning to experiment with and that James Booker brought to fruition." - Steve Steinberg, OffBeat Magazine

"A virtual spider on the keys." - Blues Review

"Super pianist!" - Len Lear, Chestnut Hill Local
