Philip Daniel: Candlelit Piano Concert

Philip Daniel has earned over 30 million streams worldwide because his music doesn't ask you to sit still and listen politely. It pulls you in. The Lincoln-based pianist and composer trained at UMKC Conservatory and creates a sound that lives somewhere between contemporary classical, cinematic scoring, and something you've never quite heard before. He uses live-looping, layered synths, and percussion to build compositions that feel like they're unfolding in real time. Influenced by Ólafur Arnalds, Nils Frahm, and Philip Glass, Philip has released six studio albums, scored original soundtracks for film and dance collaborations, and built a following that includes both conservatory-trained musicians and people who just want to feel something when they listen. This is the kind of performance that stays with you days later.

March 20th at 7pm, Philip returns to The Matthews for a candlelit concert featuring two immersive 45-minute sets. Doors open at 6:30pm, general admission seating, bar open. The candles, the acoustics, the intimacy of the space—this is how live music is supposed to feel. Affordable tickets and a night that actually delivers.
