Gina Scipione
Cautious, shy and contemplative, Gina Scipione took more than a year just observing Grape Street Pub's open-mic nights before she stepped onto the stage herself. That was then. Now the classically trained pop/rock pianist hosts her own music circle at Penn, where she teaches English as a second language, and she's a regular on local and distant stages. "There came a point in the process of getting to know my music," says Scipione, "when I realized that I was meant to express myself with a goal of creating it, showing it and sharing it." That's probably why her debut disc, being unleashed this Thursday, is called Destino.
Thu., July 25, 7:30 p.m., $7, with Lizanne Knott, Grape Street Pub, 105 Grape St., Manayunk, 215-483-7084, www.grapestreetpub.com.
