**Bub & Pop | Episode 11: Nik Greeley** (recorded February 3, 2026)

Our guest this week is Philly's own Nik Greeley. 

[Episode 11: Nik GreeleyBub & Pop | Episode 11: Nik Greeley (recorded February 3, 2026) Nik Greeley has been a fixture of the Philly music scene for the better part of two decades — he’s done it all: fronting a 10-piece band, booking talent, slinging drinks behind the bar at Johnny Brenda’s, and![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/96/b9/96b93614-6cf3-4171-9c3d-fd372ff27e5a/content/images/icon/Bub-and-Pop-1-e0da3f5b-dfe8-4efb-ab87-303d4b8f1831.jpg)Bub & PopMatt Hoffman![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/96/b9/96b93614-6cf3-4171-9c3d-fd372ff27e5a/content/images/thumbnail/Nik-Greeley-Thumbnail-Landscape-Black-Background-14e8862a-8dbd-43fb-89cc-e191f371e93f.png)](https://www.bubandpop.com/episode-11-nik-greeley/)

Nik is exactly the kind of guy this show was built for — somebody who's worn every hat the Philly scene has to offer and can tell you how each of them has made him a better musician and professional. He's got a ton of great stories, and I love to hear him talk about how he thinks. Producer Tedd and I had a blast with this one.

Producer Tedd and I saw Goose in NJ last week – the show was extremely hot! Ryan Storm wrote a great review [here](https://ryanstorm.substack.com/p/show-review-goose-7226-holmdel-nj), and my Relix review is forthcoming.

Last week, I also finished the biggest article I've written to date – super excited to share more info re that once I can.

I also saw a few pieces go live this week:

- Grahame Lesh and Daniel Donato @ Bearsville ([Relix](https://relix.com/reviews/detail/whats-old-is-new-again-grahame-lesh-and-daniel-donato-at-the-bearsville-theater/?ref=bubandpop.com))
