Banned Books Opening for Ava Luna & Cloud Becomes Your Hand at The Pharmacy April 28

South Philly’s The Pharmacy has been steadily building its reputation in the DIY community, and you are starting to find acts on its bills that would normally be performing in venues further North in town. This evening, art-pop outfit Banned Books will be hosting Deli NYC favorites Ava Luna, Cloud Becomes Your Hand, and Columbia, South Carolina’s ET Anderson. The trio of Matthew Dermond, Zane Kanevsky, and April Heliotis are wrapping up work on their first album together. Tonight’s showcase will be a good opportunity for them to test out the new material before hitting the road next month with the band Palm. The Pharmacy, 1300 S. 18th St., 8pm, $7, All Ages – H.M.
