“Hausu and Japanese horror were really big inspirations for Squeeze, whereas for the new one it was Thelma & Louise, denim, and big ‘80s hair,” Sasami Ashworth, better known mononymously as SASAMI, tells me of her upcoming third solo LP (She’s a former member of Cherry Glazerr.), Blood on...

“I’m not really a concert person.  I honestly usually find it boring,” confesses Odie Leigh during a recent phone chat.  However, the Louisiana-born, Detroit-based singer/songwriter has been on the road pretty steadily for about a year and a half now, and has been touring behind her debut LP —...

This past Friday and Saturday Clairo put on her biggest shows ever in the City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection, with two sold-out nights that filled the cavernous (almost Factory-like…) Franklin Music Hall with fans whose adoration of the bedroom-pop-icon-turned-her-generation’s-foremost-purveyor-of-soft-rock bordered on Beatlemania.  The performances had the 26-year-old...

The last time we saw Coco & Clair Clair in the City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection was April of last year, when the Atlanta rap duo headlined the 450-capacity Foundry.  However, this Thursday, November 7th, they’ll be headlining Theatre of Living Arts, the legendary South Street venue...

Atta Boy took eight long years between their first and second LP… so it’s not entirely surprising that it was more than a decade into their career before the Americana-tinged indie pop outfit embarked on their first proper tour…  The L.A.-born quartet formed in high school and released their...

“Personally, I haven’t celebrated Halloween in quite a while… because I’m, you know, considered witchy and gothy.  I always get associated with Halloween,” says Allie X during a recent Zoom chat, laughing.  However, this Thursday, October 31st, is a big occasion for the Canadian synth-pop savant, who will be...

It’s been more than six years since we’ve seen Spanish alt-rockers Hinds in the City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection…  But this Friday, October 25th, you’ll have two chances to see the Madrid-based duo in the 215, when they’ll be playing a midday set at World Café Live...
