The Space Migration Tour with Meek Mill and Mac Miller invaded Festival Pier last night. Meek also brought his son "Papi" on stage, which he claimed that he had never done before. He has a new album entitled Self Made Vol. 3 scheduled for release on August 6 via Maybach Music Group. You can check out some shots from the show HERE. Special thanks to Ajon Brodie for sharing his photos with us.

Philly psych titans, memorable for fuzzed-out cuts like  “See Through” and “Grave Blanket,” mark their return from tour with an appropriately anticipated set at Johnny Brenda’s. Purveyors of moody soundscapes, local natives Creepoid continue to expand on their distinctively earnest brand of lo-fi. Articulate riffs and emotive lyricism embodied by deliberate diction makes for monumental anthems that play out hypnotic like shoegaze fever dreams. Humming with melancholy and shades of lethargic optimism, Creepoid’s strength lies in their ability to conjure bittersweet narratives by way of haunting chants (think “Spirit Birds”) that bloom then unapologetically burst into instrumentation that seamlessly nears cinematic. Exemplified by Yellow Life Giver and Horse Heaven, Creepoid’s capacity for crafting impressive tracks is boundless. With fans ravenous for new material, the band’s follow-up release is surely highly anticipated. Equally haunting in their own right, fellow Philly four-piece Dreambook are set to finally party down in honor of releasing their debut album, Only Shadows, by prefacing Creepoid along with indie-pop mavens Amanda X. Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 Frankford Ave, 9pm, $10, 21+ – Dianca Potts 

As the eerily grey clouds cast an ominous outlook on today’s tone. They also serve as an excellent predictor of this evening’s events at KFN, where a pair of devious, dark yet melodic musical creations is set to hit the stage. SandCastle takes their low-fi creepy vocal exterior and uses it to provide a fresh cover over a folky melodic core. This layered concept reaches out into a new frontier when energetic, spacey electronics are utilized allowing songs to branch out into unfound territory. They will be opening for Andy Moholt’s deliciously twisted psych-pop concoction created with his band Laser Background. Their tunes hover over the threshold between carnivalistic deviousness and crystalized melodic pop. It’s an early show so hit happy hour and then head on over. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 7pm, $8, 21+ – Michael Colavita

While the party may be over for Eat Your Birthday Cake, Marc Neibauer continues to play on with his new track "Playtime." The song is set to appear on his upcoming EP Don’t Fall Apart, which is slated to drop next month. You can take a listen and download its first single below.

Last night was good opportunity to grab some drinks by the water at Morgan’s Pier and listen to a couple of rising local acts, Work Drugs and Norwegian Arms. After some technical difficuties early on in the evening, things got smooth. Check out some sweet shots from the evening HERE! (Photo by Zach Blum)

The combination of Mary Lattimore and Jeff Zeigler has been slowly becoming a fixture in the local music scene over the last year. Spacey drone lovers all over should be happy to hear that the duo just wrapped up two days of tracking for their debut album. And tonight they’ll be making their first appearance at the First Unitarian Church – Side Chapel opening for husband and wife act Rabbit Rabbit (a.k.a. Carla Kihlstedt and Matthias Bossi), who are founding members of iconic bands Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, Tin Hat, 2 Foot Yard, Causing a Tiger, The Book of Knots, and Fred Frith’s Cosa Brava and have performed with renowned artists such as Tom Waits, St. Vincent, Pretty Lights and Tracy Chapman just to name a few. That’s a whole lot of talent packed in one tiny venue. First Unitarian Church – Side Chapel, 2125 Chestnut St., 8pm, $15 All Ages – H.M. Kauffman 

Our concert-going buddy Kevin Kennedy and his music blog The Swollen Fox are celebrating 3 years in operation tonight with an eclectic anniversary showcase at PhilaMOCA. Headliner TJ Kong and the Atomic Bomb will surely serve up plenty of their rollicking whiskey-infused tunes, and this evening’s performance will also double up as the kickoff to their summer tour. They’ll be joined by seven-piece funk ensemble Swift Technique, who should be previewing jams from their latest EP You Boys Be Aight that they just sent to press. And rounding out the lineup will be the relative newcomers Shark Tape, who have quickly been making a name for themselves. PhilaMOCA, 531 N. 12th St., 8pm, $8 – $10, All Ages – Bill McThrill

Below is a new track that you can download for free called "Sweet Tea Oleander" from Heyward Howkins. "It’s a sweet but toxic mixture of Nathaniel Hawthorne and Cool Hand Luke." The song is off his upcoming album tentatively titled Cut & Corral, which was produced by Howkins and Ben Riesmen (Le Fit) and mixed by Quentin Stoltzfus (Mazarin/Light Heat, The Walkmen, Lilys).
