In the Indiestry: Union Transfer’s/R5’s Sean Agnew

Union Transfer has been a long time in the making, well, at least in the mind of R5’s Sean Agnew. Tomorrow Clap Your Hands Say Yeah will be performing at the grand opening of Philly’s newest, most talked about, and most highly-anticipated music venue. We were obviously plenty curious about what to expect from the converted “Italian” restaurant. And Agnew was nice enough to answer our questions and give us some insight into the making of UT as well as reasons why we should be excited about its opening, what we should probably fear more than an English riot and Philly “flash mob,” why R5 hasn’t put together their own festival yet, and much, much more. As always, it was fun to pick his brain about the past, present, and possible future of the Philly music scene which you can read about HERE.
