The Market East camp has been awfully quiet lately after bursting onto the Philly music scene early last year with their innocent retro sounds, three-part harmonies and self-titled debut EP. I often interpret that silence by bands (that aren’t about to breakup) to be time taken in order to work on new material, and possibly another recording, which seems to be the case for the acoustic trio. Tonight they will be breaking their silence in the New Year opening for Sweden’s The Amazing, who somewhat recently visited Philly on tour with fellow imports Tame Impala at Union Transfer. If you were shutout of that sold out show, then this evening is your opportunity to see if the Swedes can actually live up to their band name.
