“Claymont, Del. — Put a reformed grunge rocker, a jam band veteran and a diminutive yet powerful chanteuse into the same Northern Liberties flat and you've got a situation. The Dani Mari Situation to be specific. Cast from the most disparate of musical backgrounds, this odd cast of characters found themselves thrust together in January after a series of chance encounters in the Philadelphia music scene. Mari, a New Jersey native and West Chester University graduate, began performing as solo acoustic gigs at open mic and singer-songwriter nights back in 2006. Eventually, she found her way to the West Philly club the Underground where Chris Huebner handled most of the booking and the two became fast friends.”
