Daily News | Philly’s Low Cut Connie teams with the late Jerry Blavat on “Low Cut Strut”
Back in 2015, piano man Adam Weiner of Philly band Low Cut Connie got together with Jerry Blavat, the legendary DJ— and whose funeral packed the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul — to make a little music.
Blavat was a major supporter of the band and Weiner’s joyous and irreverent approach to old school rock and soul. He hired Low Cut Connie as an opening act on hisshow at the Kimmel Center in 2014. “He called himself my ‘musical godfather’ and championed me to anyone who would listen,” Weiner said in a press release. “Thank you Geator. You were the .... best.
Weiner decided to release this jaunty New Orleans-flavored romp on streaming for the first time as a tribute to his late friend, who throws himself into his hep cat patois with typical joie de vivre. “Yon teenagers, gather round,” Blavat riffs, “we got Low Cut Connie with the brand new sound in town.”on which he always vowed to play “music from the heart, not a research chart” are still airing weekly on WXPN-FM at 6 p.m. on Saturdays.

Nonequilibrium components in the region of very low transverse momentum in high-energy nuclear collisionsThe theoretical interpretation of data produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions has relied on applying relativistic viscous fluid-dynamical modeling approaches. Recently, the focus of several studies has been on the transition between the very first instants of the collision and the hydrodynamic phase. This paper shows that the addition of a corona component to a fluid-dynamical core increases the agreement between theory and low-momentum data. This supports the importance of non-equilibrium physics in the characterization of the quark-gluon plasma.
