Philip Krohnengold, music director, multi-instrumentalist, and songwriter, returns to Healing Force of the Universe with friends for his First Thursday Residency. PK & BUDS = Philip Krohnengold + buds serving his friends' songs as a backing band + a set of original PK music.

This month, PK invites his friend, Charlie Hickey and Sally Dworsky, Charlie’s mom.

Hickey is an indie rock musician from Pasadena, California, born on September 28, 1999. Raised in a musical family, he began writing and recording songs at a young age. At 13, he gained attention by covering Phoebe Bridgers' song "Radar" on YouTube, leading to a collaborative friendship with Bridgers. She later signed him to her label, Saddest Factory Records.

Hickey's debut album, Nervous at Night, was released on May 20, 2022. The album features contributions from Bridgers, Christian Lee Hutson, Harrison Whitford, and Marshall Vore, who also produced the record. The album explores themes of transition from adolescence to adulthood, with a sound that blends elements of folk, pop, and indie rock.

In addition to his solo work, Hickey has collaborated with artists like MUNA and ella jane. He continues to develop his distinctive voice and songwriting style, earning recognition in the indie music scene.
