Ian Records darlings, Party Photographers, warm the hearts of listeners with earnest anthems underpinned by emotives and fuzzed out riffs. Nearly synonymous with Black Tambourine’s moody brand of twee with a pinch of Jesus and the Mary Chain’s jangly finesse (like “Never Understand” or the classic “Just Like Honey”), this Philly three-piece continues to garnish well earned buzz for the release of their self-titled 7” alongside frequent live performances. From the clean backbeats of “Let the Red Lights Riot”, clipped close to lo-fi riffs played precise and awash in a mellow melodic daze, to the subtle romanticism of “Penn Treaty” or the surfy vibe of “Piano Vache”, Party Photographers’ moody noise pop captivates. Opening tonight at Johnny Brenda’s for the femme fatales of the Dum Dum Girls, Party Photographers fuzzed out goodness is the perfect premise to a sold out show you’ll wish you had tix for. Also joining the evening will be Minks and Dirty Beaches. Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 N. Frankford Ave., 9pm, $12, 21+ – Dianca Potts
