Was there any feeling that brought us more joy during our childhoods than speeding down a playground slide? Philly six-piece Joy Again, brings us back to those youthful, and carefree times with their dreamy-pop vibes. They plunge back into a time of innocence with a substantial, buoyant sound that signifies the start of summer contention. The dog days ahead will easily be faced with such soothing, beach-worthy tunes. The group will be hitting Boot & Saddle tonight, where they’ll be setting the tone for headliner Day Wave, a.k.a. Jackson Phillips, who recently released his new EP Hard To Read back in March. Boot & Saddle, 1131 Broad St., 8:30pm, $12, 21+ – Gina Rullo
