  • The Greeting Committee: “This most recent tour has been a signifier of bigger things.” (12/7 at The Foundry)

    The last time the City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection saw The Greeting Committee was just this February, when they headlined The Lounge at World Café Live after selling out the venue almost immediately.  However, the Kanas City indie rockers are already prepped for their return, when they...
  • Bartees Strange Goes Headliner (11/18 at The Foundry)

    Indie rock singer/songwriter Bartees Strange has already made a major splash in the City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection this year, with an April show supporting Car Seat Headrest at Franklin Music Hall and a September appearance at WXPN’s XPoNential Music Festival in Camden.  However, the DC-based musician...
  • Rare Americans’ James Priestner on Touring and Getting to Know Fans (10/9 at The Foundry)

    Word on the street (It’s actually from a quite reliable source.) is that tickets are running low for Rare Americans’ upcoming show this coming Sunday, October 9th, at The Foundry…  And, considering that their first-ever North American tour completely sold-out earlier this year, I might suggest getting them ASAP… ...
  • Wild Rivers on Their Year on the Road (10/5 at UT)

    A year ago, to the day, Canadian indie folk trio Wild Rivers graced the City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection with a sold-out show at The Foundry, shortly after recording their sophomore LP, Sidelines.  The album, which dropped this February on Nettwerk, was characterized by Wonderland as, “sure...

  • Learn About Love with Laufey, 9/24 at The Foundry

    23-year-old LA-based/Iceland-bred singer, composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Laufey is currently in the middle of a sold-out US headlining tour.  Last month saw the release of her debut LP, Everything I Know About Love, which Consequence of Sound described as, “a captivating symphony for the modern age,” and which V...
  • Faye Webster Sells Out and Goes Orchestral… Separately, haha (8/20 at UT, Currently Sold Out)

    Not many musicians are acclaimed for their ability to excel in both country and R&B… and even fewer (if any… ever) can claim to be world-class yo-yo-ers…  However, all of these things are true of Atlanta-based singer/songwriter Faye Webster, who grew up playing country in a family of Americana...
