Modern Baseball Return From Tour at The Barbary Jan. 7

Modern Baseball recently returned from tour in support of last year’s charming and underrated release Sports, which is the band’s first full-length album and is available via Philly’s own Lame-O Records. The local four-piece wades in the confessional waters of Midwest emo, whilst swimming in the pool of pop-punk. You can welcome them home this evening at The Barbary where they’ll be sharing the bill with out-of-towners Pity Sex (Run For Cover Records) and Waxahatchee (Don Giovanni Records). There will also be addition local support from Cayetano and Secret Plot to Destroy The Entire Universe (Kat Kat Records), who will be kicking off their tour. The Barbary, 951 N. Frankford Ave., 6pm, $8, All Ages (Ashley Catharine Smith) – H.M. Kauffman
