Kite Party LP Release Show at PhilaMOCA May 8

Just in time for summer, Kite Party have released a new full-length with plenty of vibrant indie-rock anthems that are perfect for the season. Long before they mixed Come on Wandering, the quintet have been previewing songs like “Halflife” and “Summery Dream” at shows and through their social media channels. And the end result has increased the anticipation for their sophomore LP that gives them much to celebrate during tonight’s release party at PhilaMOCA. It will also be a good opportunity to catch Kite Party and their friends Three Man Cannon before they embark on tour together later this month. The Scranton/Philly outfit that features former members of Tigers Jaw have much to celebrate as well since they will also be releasing their next album, Pretty Many People, on May 27 via Lame-O Records. The show also features Thin Lips (ex-Dangerous Ponies, ex-Tigers Jaw), GUNK, and The Spirit of the Beehive. PhilaMOCA, 531 N. 12th St., 8pm, $7, All Age – Bill McThrill
