2025 Berklee Music Stage

Returning to the Copley Square Park on Oct. 25th

Featuring the following acts:

Pedro Secco

Performance Time: 11am – 12pm

Pedro Secco is a guitarist, arranger, and composer from Curitiba, Brazil, currently based in Boston, where he studies contemporary writing and production (CWP) and performance at Berklee College of Music.

Blending his Brazilian roots with the expansive language of jazz, Secco’s music draws inspiration from the rich harmonies of Toninho Horta, the poetic depth of Milton Nascimento, and the intricate textures of Dori Cayimmi, Daniel Santiago, and Pedro Martins.

GiAnna

Performance Time: 12pm – 1pm

GiAnna is a Philly-born artist with a bedroom pop/rock and indie folk flair. Her soulful vocals are full of heart, her harmonies pull you in, and her sound is that perfect mix of “I’ve been here before” and “whoa, this is new”, engaging fans of all ages. She crafts her sound with catchy, infectious melodies and lyrics that cut deep, weaving stories of self-reflection, the messy beauty of being human, and that nagging sense of not quite fitting in.

Growing up in South Jersey, GiAnna rocked gigs alongside her dad at local venues and spent her childhood singing national anthems for Philly’s sports teams. The Beatles were her childhood soundtrack, but toss in some Clairo, Yebba, Theo Katzman, and quickly,quickly, and you’ve got the recipe for her eclectic, genre-bending style. Music is the one place she can let loose, channel that inner child, and say what’s real. Through her artistry, GiAnna aims to forge a deep spiritual and emotional connection with her audience – provoking thought, fostering inspiration, and instilling hope.

Sam Stage

Performance Time: 1pm – 2pm

Leading a double life as a solo songwriter and touring fiddler at large, Sam Stage wields the pen and the bow with equal prowess. Equipped with a growing catalogue of musical inventions crafted in green rooms across the United States, he brings his growing demand as an instrumentalist with bluegrass legends like Ricky Skaggs and Tony Trischka home to roost with original songs combining skill and heart.

Pia Ella

Performance Time: 2pm – 3pm

Pia Ella is a bassist, singer, songwriter, and arranger from Lima, Peru. Her musical journey began at age 13, guiding her through a rich spectrum of styles from traditional and fusion Peruvian music, boleros, pop, and Latin jazz to rock and indie.

Currently, Pia Ella is studying Contemporary Writing and Production at Berklee College of Music and serves as an ambassador for the Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation. Renowned for her versatility and deep musicality, she has spent years performing and recording as a session bassist, collaborating with a diverse array of local and international artists across multiple genres.

Stereo Three

Performance Time: 3pm – 4pm

Formed out of a magical and coincidental living situation, Stereo Three is a harmonious trio made up of Skye Harding, Johanna James and Maren Doughty. As individual solo artists, these three friends have found a home in friendship and their soul-filled musical connection, palpable in their unique vocal blend and intuitive arrangements. Stereo Three is currently based in Boston, as Skye, Johanna, and Maren are studying at Berklee College of Music.

Sameayah

Performance Time: 4pm – 5pm

From Liberian rhythms in her home to the soaring harmonies of church choirs, Sameayah Pehlke’s musical path took a twist: jazz improvisation met rap cadence, creating a voice that defies expectation and easy categorization. Her music channels real emotion—vulnerability, resilience, and transformation—through smooth vocals and seamless genre fusion. The result is intimate yet expansive, inviting listeners into her world.
