Along with notable names such as Richard Thompson and Carolina Chocolate Drops, you’ll find local artists like Toy Soldiers, Juston Stens and the Get Real Gang, The Lawsuits, Mike “Slo-Mo” Brenner, Modern Inventors, Ali Wadsworth and more representing our fine music scene. We also highly recommend catching Nashville’s Luella and the Sun and NYC’s Spirit Family Reunion if you plan on going. For the rest of the lineup and more info about the fest, you can find it all HERE.

It’s been a bit quiet in the Creepoid camp lately with only a handful of shows in the last few months. However, all that is about to change with the return of guitarist Pete Joe Urban from San Antonio, TX, where he’s been living for the last year while his girlfriend finished up her graduate studies. The band has also returned to its original four-piece lineup with the amicable departure of lap steel guitarist Jeff White. Creepoid has a new self-titled album that is due out this summer, but you can hear some of the new tunes tonight when the group opens for Seattle’s Night Beats. Also on the bill are Philly’s own noisy acid rockers Harsh Vibes. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 8pm, $10, 21+ – Alexis V.

It’s the first Tuesday of May, and that means it’s the beginning of a new cycle for Tuesday Tune-Out at PhilaMOCA. This month Philly-based music blog YVYNYL (a.k.a. Mark Schoneveld) will be curating the series. While Schoneveld has recently decided to take a break from blogging for life reasons, his passion for music will always go way beyond any website. Tonight YVYNYL will be bringing you a doubleheader that will start off with the infectious jangly indie pop of Austin transplants Literature and closing out the music portion of the evening is the emotive noise-pop project from Everyone Everywhere’s Matt Scottoline, Hurry. There will also be the screening of a “secret” film that Scottoline has chosen so you’ll just have to show up to find out what it is.

Last week was pretty chaotic around here with the melting down of one of our servers, but things seem to be more stable now (keep your fingers crossed). We wanted to ease into this week with the latest music video from Fool’s Gold Record’s GrandeMarshall. It’s the laid-back title track from his most excellent new mixtape Mugga Man. Enjoy!
