Porchlight Presents is a passion project started by two friends Luka and Matt who met at a birthday party and immediately bonded over their shared dream of starting a music venue. It’s a combining of sorts of their respective projects:

Dead Poet's School of Rock: Dead Poet's School of Rock is a variety show that has been hosted at Cassette in Ridgewood, Queens, since July of 2025 — meshing acts ranging from music to drag to comedy to poetry, all in one event.

On Pacific Street: On Pacific Street is a DIY live music venue hosted in a cozy living room in Brooklyn, NY, whose shows create an atmosphere that is intimate, welcoming, and vulnerable. They have been hosting shows since November 2022.

Some photos and videos from those shows:
