Today’s “Performance Choice of the Day” stars the band Summer Fiction and their whimsy, kooky, s’wonderful tune “Lauren Lorraine.”
Filmed inside Philly’s iconic Divine Lorraine, the video wraps the song’s dreamy charm in a layer of architectural history. The Divine Lorraine Hotel, located at 699 North Broad Street, is a historic 10‑story landmark originally designed by architect Willis G. Hale and built between 1892 and 1894 as the luxurious Lorraine Apartments — one of the city’s earliest high‑rise residences for wealthy tenants.

Directed by J DeVirgilis, the visual pairs perfectly with the band’s nostalgic indie sensibility, lifted from their album “Himalaya.”
Tell us below which part of this Philly‑soaked, retro‑romantic performance pulls you in the most — the song, the setting, or the whole s’wonderful vibe.
